Scenic Area of Peak Forest Wonderland
The Scenic Area of Peak Forest Wonderland is located in the Xinmin section of Huanghua Town along the most beautiful and essential stretch of the Yingxi Peak Forest Ten-Mile Gallery. It is a pristine eco-tourism attraction. The biggest highlight of Peak Forest Wonderland is the reflection of the peak forest — the scenery here is ever-changing, and the reflections present a breathtaking “mirror of the sky.” With mountains and water so close that they blend, the view is so surreal you can hardly tell where the mountain ends and the water begins. This place is especially beloved by photography enthusiasts and is hailed as a sacred photography spot and wetland park.
The scenic viewing walkways wind up the mountain, dotted with sightseeing pavilions. In front lies Juluo Mountain, with the Juluo Ancestral Temple in the middle, offering an unobstructed view of the peak forest landscape. There are also seasonal fruits to pick, vibrant flowers to intoxicate you, the chirping of cicadas and birds, and a gentle breeze brushing your face...
The biggest highlight of Peak Forest Wonderland is the reflection of the peak forest — the scenery here is ever-changing, and the reflections present a breathtaking “mirror of the sky.” With mountains and water so close that they blend, the view is so surreal you can hardly tell where the mountain ends and the water begins. This place is especially beloved by photography enthusiasts and is hailed as a sacred photography spot and wetland park. Close up, distant mountains are shrouded in hues of blue, fields lie open, flowers bloom in a riot of colors, and wisps of cooking smoke drift upward, mingling with the fragmented rays of the setting sun… Together, they form a series of fresh and idyllic rural paintings. Most breathtaking of all is the small island standing gracefully in the center of the lake, like a maiden poised delicately on the water. Pristine and unadorned, its naturally endowed beauty is beyond the reach of adjectives. Perhaps some celestial being once dropped her rainbow-colored robes here, which then transformed into this exquisite heavenly paradise.
You can also visit the grape garden to pick fresh grapes. The vines are laden with clusters of bright, glossy grapes hanging neatly from the trellises — just reach out and taste the fresh, natural flavor of the fruit for endless fun. Besides grapes, you can also pick corn, peanuts, watermelon, muskmelon, and more, making it a favorite for family trips.
Hidden within Peak Forest Wonderland is an ancient sacred temple — the Juluo Ancestral Temple. This temple is situated in an exceptionally auspicious feng shui location, with all the essential elements of feng shui: dragon, sand, water, tomb, and screen — all complete and remarkably harmonious. It sits against the main Juluo Ridge and faces the Scholar Mountain. The main Juluo Ridge was the only passage connecting Huanghua Town to the outside world before the road was built, so its strategic location goes without saying. In front of the temple lies hundreds of acres of flat, open farmland, offering a vast and open view.
