North Sea Scenic Area (Beihai Jingqu)

The North Sea Scenic Area is in the summit area of Mt. Huangshan and it is an ideal place to view the sunrise and sunset (see table with sunrise/sunset times throughout the year). This area has quite a few attractive sights: the Beginning-to-Believe Peak (Shi Xin Feng) - the most picturesque of the 72 peaks, the Stalagmite Peak (Shi Sun Gang), and Refreshing Terrace (Qing Liang Tai). The Refreshing Terrace is the best place to view the sunrise.
