Trekking Along the Yellow Mountain

The Yellow Mountain in China is one of the most significant of its attractions, as thousands of visitors every year travel from all over the world to climb and admire her surpassing beauty and magnificence. The Yellow Mountain is also known as Huangshan Mountain, in fond remembrance of the great, unforgotten ancestor of the Chinese people, the legendary, Huang Di. It is said that upon this majestic mountain, Huang Di made magical pills of immortality. The mighty mountains have seemingly absorbed the immortality concocted here, as it glows with unending, unchanging, timeless beauty throughout all seasons and times.

The Yellow Mountain is counted among the greatest mountains of China, the We Yue. The Wue Yue includes five other mountains, namely Mount Taishan, Mount Huashan, Mount Hengshan, Mount Songshan and Mount Hengshan. The Wue Yue indeed receives great prominence along with the Yellow River, Yangtze River and the Great Wall as being symbols of China.

The Yellow Mountain has been listed as a World Natural and Cultural Heritage site owing to the magnificence of its treasures in the lines of biology as well as zoology.

The sunrise viewed from atop the mountain is indeed a breathtaking experience and many travel from all over the world to catch a glimpse of her mighty golden rays.

The sight is indeed worth seeing at least once in one’s lifetime.
