Shitai Guniujiang was called "West Huangshan" in ancient times.

Shitai Guniujiang was called "West Huangshan" in ancient times.

Shitai county is located in the south of Anhui, bordering Taiping Lake in the east, Huangshan Mountain in the south, the Yangtze River in the west and Jiuhua Mountain in the north. Because of its original ecological forest ecology and selenium-enriched water with negative oxygen ions, it is known as "the most beautiful original ecological mountain city in China".

Guniujiang is the first scenic spot we visited in Shitai this time. According to the guidebook, Guniujiang Scenic Spot is located at the junction of shitai county and Qimen County, which is one of the three highs in southern Anhui. Because its mountain shape resembles a guniujiang from the sky, it is named guniujiang.

Guniujiang is famous for its strength, strangeness and danger. It is the main body of Huangshan Mountain extending westward. It was called "West Huangshan Mountain" in ancient times. Its main peak, Guniu Dagang, is 1727.6 meters above sea level, making it the third peak in southern Anhui.

Longmen Lake, because it looks like a door, is said to be the place where the bull descends and the dragon king enters and exits, so it is called "Longmen". Longmen is opposite to the two mountains, out of reach. The green hills on both sides of the strait are opposite, and the water is blue all the year round. This is really a beautiful place.

Four Seasons Lake is as green as blue, which is really a beautiful place. In front of Longmen Lake is a wide waterfall.
