Huangshan
Jade Screen Scenic Area (Beihai Jingqu)
The Jade Screen Pavilion,
1,680 meters (5511 feet) above sea level, is known as
the Jade Screen of the Heaven. A unique experience here
is to watch the white clouds drift below after rain,
when picturesque mountain peaks, fantastic rock formations
and green pines are enveloped in mist, with only their
tops showing. In front of the pavilion there are the
Guest-Greeting and Guest-Goodbye Pines.
Guest-Greeting
Pine Tree
The pine standing in front of Jade Screen Hotel
looks like a person showing the way to guests. It is
the symbol of hospitality. The pictures of the tree
can be seen in People's Congress Hall in Beijing and
many other places as well.
Lotus Peak
At an elevation of 1,873 meters (6145 feet) , it is
the highest peak of the mountain. Surrounded by a group
of lower peaks, it looks like a lotus flower in full
bloom. From the top of the peak, you can have a panoramic
view of Mt Huangshan mountain range.
Celestial
Peak
This southeast peak of Huangshan
faces Lotus Peak in the west and borders Boyu Peak in
the east. It is 1,829 meters above sea level and is
the steepest and most precipitous peak of the mountain.
