Shizhu Peak

　　  Introduction      Shizhu Peak is located southwest of the West Sea of Huangshan, between Shichuang Peak and Yunji Peak. It is one of the 36 major peaks, with an elevation of 1,477 meters.     The Ming Dynasty scholar Shen Maoxue also wrote a poem about it: “To gaze alone at Tiandu, you need the spirit to ascend; jade flutes and bright moon gather the fairy crowd. Heaven has split the stone pillar three thousand zhang tall, where one sits and gazes over streams and mountains veiled in white clouds.”     Below the peak lies Shibiyuan, and nearby there are uniquely shaped rocks such as “Immortals Walking on Stilts.”
