A Breathtaking Mountain (Panshan)
If
you are dreaming of seeing the view of a mountain shrouded
in mist, consider escaping to a mountain that has been
a centuries-old source of inspiration for many Chinese
literary scholars. The upper part of the mountain is
dominated by pines, the middle part by rocks, and the
lower part by water. Then, add the mists and clouds
at dusk. You feel that the sky is overcast, but there
are still some sunrays cascading down. Within the awesome
splendor of nature and beside the crystal clear waters,
you come to realize that what you have before you is
something beyond the normal tourist sight and pursuits.
You've defined Panshan, one of China's 15 most incredible
mountain destinations.
Located
12 kilometers away from Jixian County under Tianjin's
jurisdiction, Panshan Mountain is a treasure conceived
exclusively by nature for trekking and relaxation. Guayue
Peak (moon hanging peak), the highest point, is 864
meters high. It is 20 kilometers from east to west and
over 10 kilometers from north to south.
