FengHuangShan - 凤凰山


Perilous peaks, deep valleys and caves,
grotesquely-shaped rocks, limpid springs
and ancient Taoist temples form
the major attractions of the sacred mountain,
which has served as a holy
Taoist shrine for centuries.

Fenghuangshan means "The Phoenix Mountain".
It's a magnificent, dangerous, quiet,
old and beautiful place.
It is famous for its danger.
People usually call it
the “Chinese Famous Mountain to Adventure”.
The visit to the Phoenix Mountain
in fact is higher and higher,
more and more dangerous,
and more and more difficult.

A hike onto the mountain will be
a challenging but valued experience,
with the reward of many fantastic views during the climb ...
