Hill sights in Huáng Shān

  1. Beginning to Believe Peak

    Beginning to Believe Peak is a major bottleneck for photographers gathering around jaw-dropping views. The staggering and otherworldly views from the summit reach out over huge valleys of granite and enormous formations of rock, topped by gravity-defying slivers of stone and the gnarled forms of ubiquitous Huangshan pine trees (Pinus taiwanensis). Many rocks have been christened with fanciful names by the Chinese, alluding to figures from religion and myth.
