Rising to an altitude of 1,020 meters, Altar Summit is situated on Nanguang Rock, about 5 kilometers south of Shen Nü Stream on the southern bank of the Wu Gorge and roughly 15 kilometers from Qingshi Town. Amidst the vast valleys and mountain ranges, this solitary peak proudly stands, hundreds of zhang tall with a circumference of less than one kilometer. The mountain resembles a celestial being silently chanting scriptures atop a sacred altar. Below the peak lies a clear pool where the water is gently rippling, cool, and sweet to the taste. At the summit there is a large flat area, resembling a pristine altar placed above a dragon palace.
