Mountain, which is usually called Mt. Huangshan, is located in the southern
part of China, where occupies an area of 1200 square kilometers in Anhui
Province. It is one of the most celebrated mountains in our nation, which is
credited to be the king of all the mountains. Indeed, Mt. Huangshan obtained a
World Natural and Cultural Heritage by UNESCO Heritage Committee in 1990.Within
a history of ages, Mt. Huangshan is renamed from Mt. Yishan in 747 AD in the
legendary Huang Di, who was the regarded ancestor of the Chinese people and
made magic pills for immortality here. It is Lotus Peak that is altitude 1864
meters which is the highest peak of Mt. Huangshan. Appearance of peak shaped
like lotus, so it is named as this flower.Every bit of Mt. Huangshan scenery is
worth painting. It is confirmed by almost the whole tourists who have ever been
there. Do you know what the four unique scenic features on Mt. Huangshan are?
There are its pines, rocks, clouds, and springs. The most well-known scenic
spot is the clouds forming a "sea of clouds". That clouds on this
mountain swirl around peaks and valleys. Actually, I could hardly find any word
to express how beautiful it is. When the
famous traveller who is Xu Xiake claimed the Mt. Huangshan, he said that if anybody
has been to Mt. Huangshan, it is not worth climbing all the other mountains,
which is the highest value for Mt. Huangshan. Many tales about Mt. Huangshan
spread among the local people, hiding it in mystery. One of the most
interesting tales is that the visual spectacle of the Hallelujah
Mountains
in 'Avatar' are based on one of the peaks in Mt. Huangshan. In general, Mt
Huangshan is one of the most picturesque mountains where I have ever been.

ReplyDeleteWhat a big pity it is that I have never been to Mt Huangshan. The most charming senery in my mind is the "sea of clouds", and I saw it in my magzines before. By the way, I didn't know that Mt Huangshan is the king of all mountains in China before reading. Thank you for telling us

ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this with the class. I really enjoyed how you communicated the history of Mt. Huangshan for us. I know it is a beautiful mountain, but the stories behind it make it an even more facinating place to visit.
