- When hiking in the mountain, you shouldn’t try so hard, just take a rest when you want because the gap between two stairs is quite large and sloping. The atmosphere at a height of nearly 300m is quite thin, go slowly or you may get hypotension and dyspnea.
- Don’t smoke while hiking in the mountain because it is prone to forest fires.
- Don’t throw garbage on the road because it will affect the landscape and the environment.
