Important Tourist Sites in Huangshan

Situated a few hours train ride from Shanghai city, these mountains are popular today, as they were also in ancient times. The views and scenes of the Yellow mountains echo throughout Chinese culture in paintings as well as poetry, writing and music. The Yellow mountains are the inspiration behind the Chinese Classical Garden that has gone on to also influence Japanese gardens. The Yellow mountains scenery consists of spectacularly and peculiarly shaped graniet peaks topped by knurled and stunted pine trees, sunsets and views of mountains above clouds. Legend says that the mythical Yellow Emperor ascended to heaven form Huangshan after discovering the secret of immortality.
