Dragon Ascent Peak
Dragon Ascent Peak
With an elevation of 1,130 meters, it is situated on the western side of Hengshi Stream, approximately 15 kilometers east of the county town. The upper part of the mountain looks like the head of a dragon raised proudly. Behind the “dragon’s head,” the mountain ridges undulate like the body of a dragon. Stretching for thirty li, the majestic peaks rise layer upon layer, resembling a great dragon poised to soar into the heavens. Wisps of colorful clouds drift around the summit, as if the dragon were dancing wildly in mid-air—an awe-inspiring sight. A Qing Dynasty poet, Shen Hongkui, wrote a verse praising Dragon Ascent Peak: “Gazing afar, the layered peaks lie like a sleeping dragon, amid which, high up, gather clouds of brilliant hues.”
