3-Day Tour of Yellow Mountain
| Huangshan is one of the most famous mountains in China, and can rival
the Alps in Europe for tourist attractions. Originally called Yishan
Mountain, it was changed to its present name in the Tang Dynasty. Legend has it that Xuanyuan
Huangdi, the forefather in the ancient stories of China, became a Celestial
here by concocting pills of immortality. In its 154 square kilometres of scenic spots, Huangshan Mountain is rich in extraordinary sights and superb natural beauty: 72 peaks, 24 streams 3 waterfalls and 2 lakes. The grandeur of Taishan, the flying waterfalls of Lushan, the grotesque rocks of Yandang and the refreshing coolness of Emei-Huangshan Mountain has them all.
