Mount Qingcheng

 Mount Qingcheng
 
 
Mount Qingcheng, meaning "Green Town" in Chinese, is noted for its ancient trees. Located in the Dujiangyan scenic spot of Chengdu, Sichuan Province, Mount Qingcheng is one of the four famous Taoist mountains. Surrounded by countless peaks and densely covered with ancient trees, branches reaching the sky, Mount Qingcheng is called the quietest place under heaven. That may be the reason that Taoists in ancient times chose Mount Qingcheng to cultivate their spirits. Mount Qingcheng is divided into two parts, a front and arrear area. The former is noted for its beautiful scenery and numerous cultural and historic sites: the latter, for its mysterious views.

The Lijiang River

The Lijiang River
 
 
 
What scenery is the finest under heaven? A Chinese may tell you the scenery of Guilin. The city, in the northern of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, is noted for its verdant mountains, beautiful waters, magnificent crags, and fantastic caverns. The 437 km Lijiang River's source is at Mount Mao'er at Xing'an County northeast of Guilin, and it passes through Guilin, Yangshuo, and other places. The 83-kilometer-long waterway from Guilin to Yangshuo forms a gallery of landscape painting. Among the pinnacles and hillocks, the Lijiang River is just like a jade ribbon, as a poem says: The River is a green silk ribbon, and the hills are jade hair-pins.
 
Why not rent a boat to travel leisurely down the lijiang River? You will find yourself in a traditional Chinese landscape Painting.
