Mount Piyun

Also known as Tianshi Mountain, Mount Piyun is located in Baoxi Township at the junction of Fujian and Zhejiang, and is a renowned peak in southwestern Zhejiang, with an elevation of 1,675 meters. Towering and deep-valleyed with abundant rainfall, it earns its name from being perpetually shrouded in clouds, and is one of the sources of the famous Three Rivers — the Ou River, the Min River, and the Qiantang River. The mountain features spectacular…

...rugged peaks rising one after another, lush forests, a wide variety of rare flowers and plants, and bizarrely shaped rocks, all of which are truly breathtaking. A visitor once wrote a poem in praise: “Piyun, a fairyland lost in clouds, where morning light adorns the landscape like a jade mirror; stroll through the stone city’s heavenly streets, and glide over grassy ridges in flight.” The area now offers a circular scenic route composed of attractions such as the Tianshi Temple, Piyun Peak, the Eternal Marvels Stone Corridor, and Sacred Spring Peak.
