What to know
No authority publishes a figure for Lempuyang and the circulating numbers contradict each other - 100,000 and 70,000 for a foreign visitor from sources a year apart - so this site will not pick one. Two things are worth knowing regardless of the price: private cars no longer drive to the upper temple, so a shuttle is in practice compulsory, and the famous 'gates' photograph is taken by staff holding a mirror under the lens, with a numbered queue that has been reported to run three hours at sunrise. There is no reflecting pool.
