 Lianghuan Mountain Scenic Area

Ningbo attractionsThe Lianghuang Mountain is steep with exotic peaks and stones, deep valley and quiet gully, flying waterfall and running spring. It is green as far as the eye can see with boundless graceful sceneries.

Numerous ancient and modern writers and poets left many valuable poetic masterpieces and footprints here. It has been one of the famous mountains in the Yangtze River Delta since the Song Dynasty. Xu Xiake, a tourist of the Ming Dynasty complimented the sceneries of the Lianghuang Mountain as “luxuriant peaks with graceful woods and exotic stones reflected in the water”.

Hidden Character Stone

Ningbo attractionsWhen it is a clear day, the stone will be clean without any vestige, when it is wet due to the rain, the characters of “conversion to Amita-Buddha” appear.

Square bamboos and purple bamboos

There are square bamboos and purple bamboos grown throughout the year below the grottos of the scenic area. The earthlings think that they are specialties of the Upper Tianzhu Monastery in Hangzhou and of the purple bamboo woods in the Putuo Mountain, not knowing these two bamboos competing for splendor, which is a wonder of the Lianghuang Mountain.

Tower of the spirit

Seen from the “entrance of the celestial gate” in the scenic area, there is a giant rock of human head in green bosk.ages. The base of the tower is a huge rock with an area of 1.8×1.5 meters, which is as high as the chest. Upon the rock many large rocks are piled up with a total height of about three meters. It was not done with labor force. It adds a turn of screw to think of how it was formed.

The one-hundred family surnames of the Lianghuang Street

Ningbo attractionsThere is a strange phenomenon in the Lianghuang village that there are excessive surnames in a small village. There are 36 surnames in one village.

This is the so-called “the Lianghuang Street having one third of the one-hundred family surnames in the world”, which forms a sharp contrast with one surname in one village in nearby villages and a unique sight as well.
