Dongbai Mountain Scenic Area

　　    Dongbai Mountain is situated in the central part of Zhejiang Province, within the territory of Hulv Town, Dongyang City. It is the main peak of the Huaiji Mountain Range and also the highest peak in Dongyang City. To the north, it borders Zhuji City and to the east, it connects with Shengzhou City. It is one of the seven famous mountains in Zhejiang Province and the foremost among the notable mountains in Dongyang. The main peak was historically called “Taibai” and stands at an elevation of 1,194.7 meters. Its majestic presence forms a spectacular wonder in the southeast and can be considered the most imposing mountain among those in eastern Zhejiang. Legend has it that the great Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai once climbed this mountain, hence it is also known as “Taibai Mountain.”

　　    Dongbai Mountain, endowed with beautiful scenery and spiritual energy, has enjoyed fame through the ages. The mountain is covered with lush bamboo groves and dense forests that provide ample shade and cool breezes. As a result, even during the peak of summer, visitors do not feel the heat here, making it one of the premier summer retreats in eastern Zhejiang. In recent years, with the development of road access, the construction of summer resorts, and the introduction of mineral water resources, the mountain has attracted a continuous stream of tourists every summer. Dongbai Mountain is abundant in premium tea and medicinal herbs, which exude fragrant aromas year-round. The famous “Dongbai Spring Sprout” tea, a type of misty mountain tea from Dongbai, is recorded in tea compendiums. Medicinal plants such as goji berries, poria cocos, and calamus are listed in the “Agricultural Classics.” Beside the main peak of Dongbai Mountain, there are two peaks — Hulv Peak and Lupi Peak — standing opposite each other. At the summit of the main peak, there is a stone mortar that remains dry throughout the year but unexpectedly gushes with water during droughts. Even if a thousand people drink from it, the stream never runs dry. For this reason, locals often come here to pray for rain and refer to the stone mortar as the “Jade Maiden Spring.”
