It is 60 kilometers long from north to south and 40 kilometers wide from east to west, with a total area of 2,400 square kilometers. Mount Kumgang can be divided into outer King Kong, inner King Kong and sea King Kong. There are more than 2000 Qifeng/kloc-0, and the elevation of the main peak is 1638 meters.

In ancient times, there were fifty-three Buddhas fighting in Kowloon. Nine dragons escaped after being defeated. Because of the fog, they didn't see any peaks ahead, so they bumped into a strange cave that is still faintly visible today, called "Jiulong Cave".

Legend has it that in ancient times, a king came here to play and stayed for three days before leaving for home, hence the name Santianpu. From the third day in Pudong, you can see the rough sea and the rolling mountains to the west.

The water in Mount Kumgang is also beautiful. The Shangba Beach on Jiujing Peak looks like eight emeralds strung together with a silver thread, which is beautiful and unusual. Legend has it that in ancient times, the "Eight Immortals" in the sky were attracted by the beautiful scenery here and secretly descended to bathe here. The most famous Jiulong source waterfall, accompanied by earth-shattering noise, poured down from a cliff more than 70 meters high, splashing thousands of pearls, like smoke and fog. The ancients praised it with poems such as "a thousand miles of practice makes a thousand pearls" and "the sky is full of rivers, listening to thunder during the day".
