Wu yue is the collective name given
to China's most important mountains,
namely Mt. Taishan in Shandong Province, Mt. Huashan in
Shaanxi
Province, Mt. Hengshan in Shanxi Province, Mt. Songshan
in Henan
Province and Mt. Hengshan in Hunan Province. It is said
that you won't
want to visit any other mountains after seeing wu yue but
you won't wish
to see even wu yue after returning from Mt. Huangshan. This
saying may
give you some idea of the beauty and uniqueness of Mt. Huangshan.
Together with the Yellow River, the Yangtze River and the
Great Wall,
Mt. Huangshan has become one of the great symbols of China.
Mt. Huangshan can boast not only of
its magnificence but also its
abundant resources and great variety of zoological species,
for which it
has been listed as a World Natural and Cultural Heritage
Site.
