It has an elevation of 780 meters. Located 6 kilometers east of Shen Nv Stream and to the east of Qili Pond, Ascending Peak boasts steep and precipitous cliffs, with a sharp, lofty summit standing firmly. One of its corners tilts upward, as if floating and ready to take flight, soaring straight into the clouds like a giant bird ascending to the heavens. Hence the name Ascending Peak. Also, due to its resemblance to a roc spreading its wings and soaring upward, locals also call it Eagle Rock. From the summit of Ascending Peak, one can gaze across the mighty Yangtze River cutting through the misty Wu Mountains, with its surging waters and towering peaks. One can also see the Daning River weaving through the vast mountains like a silver ribbon.
