Bookcase Peak
Introduction Bookcase Peak is located in the northern part of Huangshan, near Rooster Peak, and stands opposite Pagoda Peak across the valley. It is one of the 36 minor peaks, with an elevation of 1,386 meters. A fissure in the peak's wall resembles an ancient scholar’s bookcase, hence its name. A poem reads: “A unique peak so box-like stands, as if holding scrolls by heavenly hands. Yet Sanskrit scholars fail to see, hanging high on the ridge for all eternity.”
