Huangshan Scenic Area

Huangshan Scenic Area

Yellow Mountain Scenic Area, also known as Huangshan or the Yellow Mountains, is famous for its exceptionally beautiful, even legendary, scenery. It is one of the most popular tourist attractions in China.

The Yellow Mountains are typified by sheer granite relief punctuated only by pine trees growing out of the rock. Granite towers and interesting rock formations can be found all over the scenic area.

Huangshan is especially famous for its four supreme sights: peculiar pines, strangely-shaped rocks, the sea of clouds and hot springs. It has the reputation of being "China's strangest mountain". It was one of the first Key National-Level Scenic Resorts, and is also a World Heritage Site and a world-class tourist attraction.Read More »
