Cuiwei Peak Nature Reserve

　　The Cuiwei Peak Scenic Area, anciently known as the Jjingjing Mountain Region, is like a shining pearl nestled in the southeastern part of China. It is situated in the northeastern part of Ganzhou Prefecture, Jiangxi Province, approximately 5 kilometers northwest of Ningdu County town, covering a total area of 78 square kilometers. It lies 168 kilometers south of Ganzhou City, the regional administrative center, and 320 kilometers north of Nanchang, the provincial capital. The area features Danxia landform geology, characterized by towering rocky mountains, steep peaks, peculiar cliffs, serene caves, and beautiful waters, creating uniquely magnificent natural scenery. The Taoist blessed site, Jjingjing Cave, was bestowed during the Song Dynasty with an imperial plaque inscribed “Spiritual Spring Responding to All Beings” by Emperor Huizong, and was listed as one of the seventy-two blessed sites of Taoism in China. By the Qing Dynasty, it had become a retreat for notable figures such as Zeng Xingzong, a distinguished physiologist and favorite disciple of Zhu Xi; Zeng Yuanyi, a renowned poet and organizer of the “Rivers and Lakes Poetry Society”; and the “Three Weis of Ningdu” and “Nine Masters of Yitang” from the early Qing period. For over 500 years, these scholars taught students, composed literature, and left behind more than 20 relics including pavilions, halls, cottages, and towers, as well as over 30 types of poetry and prose totaling thousands of volumes. Cuiwei Peak has thus become a timeless mountain that embodies scenic beauty, religious significance, and cultural heritage. It is included in the contemporary “China Famous Scenic Spots Dictionary,” designated as a National Forest Park and a Jiangxi Provincial Scenic Area, and stands as a renowned tourist destination.
