YELLOW MOUNTAIN, China: Mt Huangshan, Pine Trees and Towering Peaks

Posted by: kirsty_wilson in Asia, tags: China, Culture, Mountains, National Park, UNESCO

Where is Yellow Mountain?

Yellow Mountain

The spectacular Yellow Mountain, also known as Mount Huangshan, is found nestled in the Anhui Province of eastern China. Yellow Mountain received inscription as a UNESCO heritage site during 1990 for its magnificent landscape and significant contribution to Chinese art and culture.

Yellow Mountain is made up of 72 granite peaks, projecting gnarled pine trees from crevices, clear mountain springs and misty-clouds that shroud the tall peaks. The highest peak ‘Lianhua Feng’ has sitting upon the top of it, a lone rock, called ‘Monkey Rock’. It was so named after a legendary monkey that fell in love with a village-girl. Today, ‘Yellow Mountain’ joins a number of other splendid travel destinations China has to offer the visitor such as Yellow River, Yangtze River, Terracotta Warriors and the Great Wall of China.

The area with its natural beauty, mystical and spiritual atmosphere has inspired many artists over the centuries. Poets, writers, Chinese ink painters have all converged on Yellow Mountain.

Yellow Mountain is included in this beautiful book ‘China’s Sacred Sites’
