Dayan Mountain

　　Introduction       Dayan Mountain is situated in the northern part of Shaping urban area, Heshan, adjacent to Heshan Port and about 60 kilometers from Guangzhou. It gets its name from its shape, which resembles a wild goose. The scenic area covers 300 hectares, with the main peak rising 310 meters above sea level. It is known as the “sister mountain” of Xiqiao Mountain in Nanhai.

　　    From the foot to the summit of the mountain, there are attractions such as Yan Shan Gate, Banshan Pavilion, Haihui Temple, Lion Peak, Yan Shan Pinghu (Dayan Flat Lake), Sun-Moon Peak, Luyou Pavilion, Ji Yuan Pagoda, Zhuangyuan Archway, the zoo, Barbecue Village, Hequehua (sparrow flower), Qingjie Pool, Haiyuan Cave, the Natural Laughing Buddha, the Wishing Tree, and Guiren Peak. The scenic area also features a Hall of Fame, which showcases historical figures from Heshan, well-known individuals from home and abroad, as well as those who have made outstanding contributions to Heshan or visited the city.

　　    The tofu pudding made on the mountain using high-quality spring water from Dayan and traditional village methods is tender, chewy, and rich in flavor—definitely worth trying.  Transportation        Buses leave from the provincial bus station for Heshan every half hour, and there is a shuttle bus from Shaping to the scenic area every 15 minutes.        Admission/Fees & Opening Hours        10 yuan
