What are the three main peaks of Huangshan Mountain?

The three main peaks of Huangshan Mountain are Lotus Peak, Guangming Peak and Tiandu Peak. Huangshan Mountain is the symbol of Anhui tourism and the only mountain view among the top ten scenic spots in China.

Huangshan Mountain, formerly known as "Yishan", is famous for its blue-black peaks and overlooking the sky. Later, it was renamed "Huangshan" because it was said that Xuanyuan Huangdi was an alchemist here. The representative landscape of Huangshan is "four wonders and three waterfalls", and the four wonders are: strange pines, strange rocks, sea of clouds and hot springs; Three waterfalls: herringbone waterfall, Baizhang Spring and Jiulong Waterfall. Huangshan welcoming pine is a symbol of the warm and friendly people in Anhui, bearing the oriental etiquette culture that embraces the world.

When Amin traveler Xu Xiake climbed Huangshan Mountain, he praised: "There is no such famous mountain as Huangshan Mountain. Huangshan, there are no mountains in the world, and you can see it! " It was extended by later generations as "Five Mountains return without looking at the mountains, and Huangshan returns without looking at the mountains".
