Yellow Mountains, National Park in China
The Yellow Mountains, also known as Huangshan, are a mountain range in southern Anhui province in eastern China. The name "Huangshan" literally means the Yellow Mountain(s) and was originally called "Yishan," but it was renamed because of a legend that Emperor Xuanyuan once made alchemy there. The area is well known for its peculiarly-shaped granite peaks, Huangshan pine trees, and the mystical seas of cloud that frequently surround the massif, creating dream-like scenery. The Yellow Mountains were listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1990 due to their outstanding universal value, including their cultural and botanical richness. The mountains are also famous for their hot springs, which are believed to have rejuvenating properties. The best times to visit are spring and fall, when the colors are vibrant and the average temperatures are around 16°C. The area is accessible via bullet trains from Hangzhou and Shanghai, with the highest peak reaching 1,864 meters (6,116 feet) above sea level.
The Yellow Mountains, also, offer several popular hiking trails.
