The ten most beautiful peaks in China, which are worth climbing?

The activity "The Most Beautiful Place in China" sponsored by chinese national geography magazine ended six months ago. Interestingly, most people are not familiar with or even completely unfamiliar with the names that occupy the top spot in 15, such as mountains and lakes. Most of the celebrities on the list are unknown, but those who are included in Sun Shan's list are already famous.

Nanjiabawa Peak in Tibet, Gongga Mountain in Sichuan, Mount Everest in Tibet, Meili Snow Mountain in Yunnan, Huangshan Mountain in Anhui, Xiannairi Mountain in Sichuan, Jiuqu Peak in Xinjiang, Qi Feng in Gangrenbo, Taishan Mountain in Shandong and Emei Mountain in Sichuan are listed as the top ten famous mountains. However, the "famous mountains" such as Huashan and Lushan since ancient times are regrettable.

1. Overlooking Nangarbawa Peak

No.1Nangarbawa-a paradise in the clouds

The main peak of Nangarbawa soars into the sky. According to local legend, the gods in the sky often come to parties and stew mulberries. The flag clouds caused by the high-altitude wind are mulberry smoke lit by the gods, so people living in the canyon area have great admiration and awe for this steep mountain.

The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the Himalayas are lamented as the last secret land owned by mankind, and are considered as the "golden keys" to open the door of the earth. What is particularly amazing is that at the eastern and western ends of the Himalayas, there are two peaks located on mysterious knots (the western Himalayan tectonic knot in Pakistan and the eastern Himalayan tectonic knot in southeastern Tibet): Nangabawa (7782 meters above sea level), the fifteenth peak in the world, and Nangababat (8 125 meters above sea level), the ninth peak in the world, which not only hangs the majestic Himalayas at the southern end of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, but also hangs them at.

Why are there two peaks at the east and west ends of the Himalayas so perfectly symmetrical? Why are these two peaks deep and surrounded by two big rivers (Yarlung Zangbo River in the east and Indus River in the west) in the same way? Why do these two rivers meet in the same ocean (Indian Ocean) after thousands of kilometers apart?

These are still mysteries.

What we know is the folk myth about Nangarbawa, the oriental "magic needle". I wonder if it's a coincidence. In the ancient legend of "Battle of Menling" in the nearby area, Nangarbawa is the patron saint sword of our planet that King Gelsall used to save people.

In fact, the mystery of Nange Baba itself is no less than these geographical mysteries initiated by him.

Nange Bawa has existed in this world for more than 700 million years. He is the first place in the whole Himalayan region to go out to sea and land, and is worthy of being the highest peak in the East Himalayan group. What he has experienced is beyond our current knowledge.

But we still know very little about Nange Baba. This is not because his peerless elegance can't arouse people's admiration and admiration, but because he deliberately weaves clouds into curtains, sets canyons into screens and rapids into obstacles, and deliberately doesn't let all foreign things disturb the loneliness and loneliness he has been used to for hundreds of millions of years.

This is a magical canyon, which can be seen from the unfettered Amazon to the cold Himalaya, and almost integrates all the beautiful scenery of Zhong Ling in the world. Walking in it, the dense water vapor is continuous, sometimes around the fingertips, sometimes hovering over the head, and the clouds are lingering, just like a fairyland in a dream.

2. Gongga Mountain

No.2 Gongga-the wind has stopped.

In Kangqu, Sichuan, Yingongga Mountain is located in Raogang, Miya, which is a traditional geographical division of Tibetan Buddhism. It is said that the locals also call it Miya Gongga. In Tibetan, "Gong" stands for snow that has not melted for many years. "Ga" means white, and Gongga means snow. Gongga Mountain is the main peak of the snow mountain branch of Hengduan Mountain, which is located in the east and west of Tibet. The main peak is 7556 meters high, which is the highest peak in eastern Tibet and Sichuan Province. Known as the "King of Shushan". In Tibetan Buddhism, this mountain is a famous snowy mountain. People think it is the incarnation of the goddess and the sister peak of Mount Everest. It was near dusk when we arrived at Camp No.3 in Gongga Mountain. Hungry, the group put down their luggage and ran directly to the restaurant. Mr. Luo, the team leader, ordered a big table of dishes. It goes without saying that large pieces of meat make people dizzy, but just as we swept the food to the end, the host served a unique dish, only to see a layer of white shiny eggs piled up like a mountain, and a golden yolk spread on it, which was particularly beautiful. The owner said: this makes it a dish of the same name evolved from the most famous landscape of Gongga Mountain, Rizhao Jinshan.

Sparse clouds blend with each other, and the changeable sunshine hits the golden, black and gray blocks one by one between the distant mountains. The discolored sun and the steep rock wall pull and tear each other, and the light and clouds also change color. Soon, the clouds darkened, and around them, bright red bands of light poured down like lava from a volcano. Those red, yellow, gray and black colors, as well as deeper and more wonderful colors, are rapidly rotating, changing and moving on the mountain. In the quiet time and space of Gongga, the mountains and the sky, the sun and the clouds show their beautiful bodies one by one, and they show their original beauty and brilliance in the daytime.

3. Mount Everest

The Third Mount Qomolangma —— The Watch of the Mind

Tibetan means "Virgin Mary", which is 8848 meters above sea level and is the highest mountain in the world. It is an approximately east-west arc mountain system, located on the Sino-Nepalese border in the middle of the Himalayas, just south of Dingri County in Shigatse, Tibet. In the fifty-sixth year of Kangxi (17 17), he wrote "Jumulang Maalin" in the Panorama of the Imperial Palace, which accurately marked the location of this mountain. 1858, under the auspices of the British, the Indian Survey Bureau named this mountain after the surname of its former director, S.G.Everest. 1952, China government renamed this peak as Mount Everest. This mountain is a huge pyramid with huge glaciers, the longest of which is 26 kilometers. At the foot of the mountain is the highest temple in the world, Rongbu Temple. On May 25th 1960 and May 27th 1975, the China mountaineering team reached the summit from the north slope. middle

The National Academy of Sciences has organized many large-scale comprehensive scientific investigations and obtained important scientific data.

Mount Qomolangma is distributed in Tibet, Pakistan, India, Nepal, Sikkim and Bhutan, and its main part is at the junction of China and Nepal. The Himalayas is one of the youngest mountains in the world, with an age of1000-20 million years. It consists of many parallel mountains, with a total length of 2450 kilometers from east to west and a width of 200- 300 kilometers from north to south. It is an arc extending to the south, a young folded mountain range with complex structure. From north to south, it can be divided into four zones: Chesk Mountain, Ladakh Mountain, Great Himalayas, Little Himalayas and Keke Mountain in Sevali. The main vein is the Great Himalayas, which is about 50-90 kilometers wide and is mainly composed of crystalline rocks. The Great Himalayan Mountains are customarily divided into three sections: the western Himalayas from Aripulan in Nanga, India to the west of Parabat Peak; The middle part of the Himalayas lies between Namnya Peak in the east of Pulan and zamora Peak in Yadong. East of Yadong is at the corner of Yarlung Zangbo River, and South Jabbawa Peak is the East Himalayas. The average elevation of the Great Himalayas is over 6000 meters, and there are many peaks. There are more than 50 seats over 7000 meters, and 16 seats over 8000 meters. Mount Qomolangma, the highest mountain in the world, lies on the border between China and Nepal. Within more than 5,000 square kilometers around Mount Everest, there are 4 peaks over 8,000 meters and 38 peaks over 7,000 meters. This phenomenon of summit gathering is unique in the world, so it is called "the roof of the world". Under the erosion and cutting of many rivers, the Himalayas have formed many canyon passages with a depth of thousands of meters, which has become a shortcut for trade and cultural exchanges between Tibet and its surrounding areas.

4. Meili Snow Mountain in Yunnan

No.4 Meili Snow Mountain-the honor guard of Snow God

Meili Snow Mountain is located at the junction of Deqin County in Diqing Autonomous Prefecture of Yunnan Province and Chayu County in Tibet. It belongs to the southern extension of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and is a sacred mountain that humans have never climbed. It is located on the main ridge of Nushan Mountain between Nujiang River and Lancang River, extending from northwest to southeast. The terrain in this area is high in the north and low in the south, and the valley is open to the south. The airflow can go up the valley, which is greatly influenced by the monsoon, and the dry and wet seasons are distinct. In summer, the temperature is 1 1- 29℃ in the valley and-10℃-20℃ in the mountain area. The rainy season is concentrated in June-August, with an average annual precipitation of 600 mm. The climate here is extremely unstable and it is a climate forbidden zone for mountaineering. The winter climate is relatively stable, but it is still unpredictable. Meili Snow Mountain glacier develops and stretches in the valley. Among them, Niucha, Xinong and Mingyong glaciers are large in scale, and Mingyong glaciers extend to an altitude of more than 2000 meters below the tongue, which is a strange low-latitude and low-altitude glacier. From the main peak of Meili Snow Mountain to the confluence of Lancang River and Mingyong River (2038 meters above sea level), the height difference is 4702 meters, forming a spectacular and fantastic Meili Grand Canyon. Because of the large height difference, the climate zoning is very different, and correspondingly, the vertical zoning of vegetation is also obvious. In the lowlands along the valley, melons, fruits, peaches and pears abound, with broad-leaved forests and mixed coniferous and broadleaved forests above, and alpine meadows with dense coniferous forests and alpine shrubs below the snow line. It is rich in valuable medicinal materials such as Tricholoma matsutake, Cordyceps sinensis, Fritillaria, and beautiful snow tea, which is very popular. Animals such as bamboo chicken, red panda, roe deer, red deer and bear are active in woody grass.

Meili Snow Mountain is one of the six national key scenic spots in Yunnan Province. Locke, an American scholar who visited many famous mountains and rivers in 1930s, called Meili Snow Mountain "the most beautiful mountain in the world". 1989 10 The 10th Panchen Lama, a Tibetan Buddhist, was praised by Queji Jianzan. He held a grand ceremony in front of the peak and left a monument.

The Kage peak of Meili Snow Mountain is still the Mount Everest that humans have never climbed. As early as 1902, the British mountaineering expedition launched its first sprint to the summit and ended in failure. Later, the United States, Japan, China and Japan and other four mountaineering teams climbed the holy mountain four times without success. 199 1 year 65438+1October 3, 17 Chinese and Japanese mountaineers were killed while climbing the kagebu peak. The news shocked the world.

5. Huangshan, Anhui

Fifth place Huangshan Mountain-God's Bonsai

Huangshan Mountain is located in Huangshan City, Anhui Province, at the junction of Shexian County, yi county County and Xiuning County in the south of Anhui Province. The area is about 1200 square kilometers, of which the essence scenic spot is about 154 square kilometers. Huangshan Scenic Area is one of the most famous mountain scenic spots in China. Huangshan Mountain is famous for its "four wonders" of strange pines, strange rocks, sea of clouds and hot springs. 1990 65438+February Huangshan Scenic Area was included in the World Heritage List.

There are 72 strange peaks here, among which Tiandu Peak, Lotus Peak and Guangming Peak are all above 1800 meters above sea level, which is extremely magnificent. Three main peaks of Huangshan Mountain: the first peak-Lotus Peak, with an altitude of1864m. Guangmingding, the flattest peak, is1860m above sea level. Tiandu Peak is the most dangerous mountain, with an altitude of1810m.

Strange pine: The ancients called Huangshan "no pine is strange", "those who have roots as big as shin and bend over an acre; Those who only seek roots and technical assistance to build roadside; Some follow the cliff and rely on it; Some wear redundant seams, and some explode sideways; There are buildings like feathers; Those corrected as mosquitoes and dragons; Some people lie up and lie down; Those that have crossed and broken, and those that have broken and crossed again. The left side of the Wenshuyuan, behind the ladder and at the foot of the mountain are all places where you can relax, lean on and pitch with people, which is particularly strange "(Qian Qing Qian Yi's A Visit to Huangshan). There are hundreds of famous pines in Huangshan, and the most famous authors are "Ten Famous Pines in Huangshan"-Yingke Pine, Fujian Pine, Pu Tuan Pine, Phoenix Pine, Kirin Pine, Adventure Pine, Introduction Pine, Lianlisong Pine, Black Tiger Pine and Chessboard Pine.

Huangshan combines the length of famous mountains, the majesty of Mount Tai, the preciseness of Mount Huashan, the smoke of Mount Hengshan, the waterfall of Mount Lushan, the exquisiteness of Yandang Mountain and the beauty of Mount Emei. Xu Xiake, a traveler and geographer in the Ming Dynasty, visited Huangshan twice and said with admiration, "If you climb Huangshan, there is no mountain in the world, and you must stop watching it!" It also left the reputation that "the Five Mountains return without looking at the mountains, and the Huangshan Mountain returns without looking at the mountains". Huangshan will welcome guests from all over the world with its magnificent appearance.

Huangshan Mountain can be said to have no peaks, no rocks, no pine and no wonder, and it is famous for its four wonders of strange pines, strange rocks and sea of clouds and hot springs. The second lake, three waterfalls, sixteen springs and twenty-four streams set each other off. Huangshan is also known as a "natural zoo and world botanical garden", with a pleasant climate and a unique summer resort. People who don't go to Huangshan yearn for Huangshan, and those who go to Huangshan miss Huangshan more. It will make you happy and satisfied.

The scenery of Huangshan is different in four seasons. It is sunny and rainy in the morning and changes quickly. The seasonal landscapes of Huangshan, such as sunrise, sunset, clouds, Buddha's light and fog, have their own tastes, which is really a fairyland on earth.

6. Qiaogeli Peak in Xinjiang

Sixth place, Chogory Peak-a distant secret place.

It means "tall and majestic". With an altitude of 86 1 1 m, Jogory Peak is the main peak of the Karakorum Mountains and the second highest peak in the world, also known as K2 peak abroad. Jogory Peak is located at 76 degrees east longitude. 5 degrees 35 minutes north latitude. 9 degrees, located in the middle of Karakorum Mountain. It belongs to the side of China, in Yecheng County, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. The Karakorum Mountains stretch for thousands of kilometers, running northwest-southeast, with an altitude of more than 6,000 meters. There are dense peaks in the mountain range, among which there are four world-famous peaks with a height of more than 8,000 meters: on the east side of the peak of Chagory is the Bloat, with an altitude of 805 1 m; In turn, it is Mount Gashurbloom at an altitude of 8068 meters; Gashur Bloom II, 8035 meters above sea level. There are 14 peaks over 8000 meters in the world, which accounts for nearly one third. There are more than 20 peaks above 7000 meters above sea level, of which Skyangkanli peak in the north is 7545 meters above sea level, and Spande peak in the west is 7385 meters above sea level. There is also Crown Peak below, which is 7295 meters above sea level. Therefore, it has become the second mountaineering center that the world mountaineers pay attention to. There are six ridges in Jogory Peak, and the northwest-southeast ridge is the main ridge line of Karakorum Mountain. It is also the border between China and Pakistan. Others include Beiling, Xiling and Northwest Ridge. The peaks are pyramid-shaped, the ice cliffs stand upright and the mountains are steep. The steep slope was covered with traces of avalanches. The top of the mountain is an ice slope rising slightly from north to south, with a large area. On the north side, the average slope is more than 45 degrees. From the base camp on the north side to the top of the mountain, the vertical height difference is as high as 4700 meters, which is the largest mountain peak with a vertical height difference of over 8000 meters in the world. The glacier on the north side is called Chogory Glacier, and the terrain is complex and changeable. The surface of the glacier is broken, and the ice cracks of different shades crisscross. The valley on the west side of the glacier is a steep rock wall, with frequent rolling stones, ice collapses and avalanches. On both sides of Chogory Peak is the 44-kilometer Insugeti Glacier.

Not only is the terrain sinister, but the climate is also very bad. From May to September every year, the southwest monsoon brings warm and humid airflow, which is transformed into rain, which is the rainy season in this area. From mid-September to mid-April of the following year, a strong westerly wind struck, bringing severe winter. The lowest temperature on the summit can reach -50 degrees, and the maximum wind speed can reach more than 5 meters per second, which is a climate forbidden zone for mountaineering. From May to September, due to the rising temperature, the snow melts and the rain drops, the water level in the valley often rises sharply, making it difficult to enter the mountains. Therefore, the best time for mountaineering activities should be arranged from May to early June, when the river rises, but it is not too heavy; From July to September, the temperature at the top of the mountain is slightly higher and the good weather lasts for a long time, which is a good time to climb to the top.

7. Sichuan Xiannairi (Sanshen Mountain in Daocheng)

No.7 Daocheng Sanshen Mountain-the landmark of Shangri-La

The three sacred mountains-Xiannairi, Yangmaiyong and Shanuoduoji-are the patron saint mountains to protect Tibetans in Aden. Xiannai Ribei Peak means Guanyin Bodhisattva (6032 meters), Manjushri Bodhisattva in Yangmai Yongnan Peak (5958 meters) and Vajrayana Bodhisattva in Shanuoduo Jidong Peak (5958 meters). It is said that if Tibetans can worship three times,

Xiannairi stands in the southern section of Shaluli Mountain in Hengduan Mountains. Xiannairi Snow Mountain, located at the junction of Muli Tibetan Autonomous County and Daocheng County in Sichuan, is the first of the three peaks in Aden Scenic Area. It is the fifth peak in Sichuan, with an altitude of 6032 meters, towering and magnificent, and the male sword goes straight into the sky. The name of the peak means "Guanyin Bodhisattva", and it is surrounded by glacial peak forest landforms, glaciers and glacial remains, alpine lakes, and the north of the peak is 65438.

Secondly, the whole snow mountain is an annular ice bucket with a downward slope, so when we look from both sides, the peak always faces us. The rocks on the mountain ridge are exposed, serrated, bolted or formed into cliffs. Xiannairi syncline: the syncline axis is consistent with the main peak of Xiannairi Snow Mountain, along 73 degrees northeast, slightly extending to 12KM, protruding to the northwest like a fox, with the lower Triassic purplish red as the core, gray slate, limestone and ankerite as the occurrence, and its wings are 33 degrees < 55 degrees and 165 degrees respectively.

8. Qi Feng, Gangrenbo, Tibet (transferred to Shenshan)

Eighth place Gangrinpoche-the residence of the gods

Qi Bo, Ren Gang is known as the Ling Snow Mountain. It is in the northern part of Mapan Yongcuo, the holy lake in Pulan County. It is the main peak of the Gangdise Mountain, with an altitude of 6656 meters. Tibetan means "sacred mountain" and it is one of the famous Buddhist holy places. North of Yongcuo, Mabian, the peak is covered with ice and snow all year round, and the four walls of the peak are symmetrical, showing the shape of a pyramid with a round crown. There are often white clouds around the peak, which is more and more mysterious. The distance around the mountain is 5 1 km and there are eight temples around it.

Ali's four major rivers-Ma Quan River, Shiquan River, Xiangquan River and Peacock River-all flow from Gangrinboqi, and all sects believe that their gods are connected with this mountain. In Buddhism, it consists of four treasures: gold, silver, coloured glaze and glass. The "Xumi Mountain" surrounded by seven golden mountains, seven fragrant seas and twelve continents symbolizes the center of the whole Buddhist universe. In Tibetan Bonism, it is the mountain where 360 gods live. When the founder Xin Huan Mi Wo fell from the sky, she landed on the top of this mountain. In Hinduism, it is "Kailas" and "Shiva's Paradise". Many sects regard Gangrinbo Qi Feng as the center of the world, and many believers come to worship every year. Believers from India, Nepal, Bhutan, Sikkim and other countries came all the way here, kowtowing and praying along the way, and after going around the mountain to worship Buddha, they were considered to have achieved their long-cherished wish, especially in the Year of the Horse.

Feng Qi of Gangrenbo has left countless scenic spots, which is a sacred place in the hearts of all religions.

9. Mount Taishan Sea of Clouds

Ninth Mount Tai-the totem of China

The ancients thought that "the sky is high and the ground is thick" and "the sky is high and Mount Tai is also high". Therefore, in order to thank the Heavenly Father for his kindness of "giving life", all the so-called emperors who are "ordered by heaven" should build an altar on the top of Mount Tai, close to the heaven, which means increasing the height of Mount Tai to worship heaven; Then set up an altar on the mountain near the earth in front of Mount Tai, which is a meditation ceremony of Mount Tai pursued by emperors in previous dynasties. With the formation of Zen rites, Taishan religion was born one after another, so that Taishan ancient temple was hidden and there were many temples. Then, literati, celebrities and Confucian scholars came to visit, leaving a large number of poems, songs and couplets, which constantly enriched the connotation of Taishan culture. Confucius's "Climbing Mount Tai and Being Small in the World" is a much-told story, and Du Fu's "Climbing to the Top, the other mountains all appear dwarfs under the sky.". Became an eternal swan song.

In a blink of an eye, it has been five or six years since I climbed Mount Tai for the second time. Those peaks and towers, those carved columns and stone carvings, like smoke, fell into memory and became ink. With my girlfriend, revisiting Mount Tai has become much more vivid. Even Dai Zongfang's archway has a unique starting point.

The creator has endowed all the mysterious nature here with elegance, which is unique among the five mountains. Climbing the stone steps of the memorial archway of Zongfang, the towering Mount Tai came into view, and the momentum of enjoying the five mountains alone was shocking. I feel that behind every stone, every memorial arch and every tree, there is a history and humanistic spirit, and a hurricane-like cultural noise is shrouded.

Mount Tai, known as the "Sect of Five Mountains", originated from a myth. In myths and legends, there is no deeper cultural phenomenon than Pangu's head. However, closely related to Mount Tai is the head of the First God. Legend has it that after Pangu's death, his head became Dongyue, and Mount Tai became the first of the five mountains.

In my opinion, if we only rely on the power of myth, no matter how heavy the symbol is, we can't escape a sense of illusion. Therefore, I believe that Taishan dominates the five mountains and stands alone in the world, relying on indisputable strength.

As we all know, the humanity and nature of Mount Tai blend together perfectly and harmoniously. Mount Tai has been worshipped by China people since ancient times and is regarded as a symbol of social stability and national unity. The Chinese nation has always had the saying that "Mount Tai is safe and the world is safe"; Mount Tai is also the only famous mountain in ancient China that was closed to Zen by the emperor. Seventy-two kings came to Mount Tai to meet the princes, set up great positions and carved stone marks. Scholars even went up the mountain to pay homage to saints, wrote poems and left messages, leaving more than 20 ancient buildings and more than 2,200 stone tablets, making Mount Tai "the best in the world" and always the spiritual source of artists and scholars.

10 Emei Mountain in Sichuan

10. The last Emei Mountain-Ascending from the basin

Emei Mountain is located in Emei Mountain, Sichuan Province, 0/56 km away from Chengdu/KLOC. Jinding Cliff, the main peak, rises into the sky and stands tall. During this period, you can overlook the Xuefeng in the west and the vast Pingchuan in the east. Magnificent momentum, unique landscape. There are four wonders: the sea of clouds, the sunrise, the Buddha's light and the holy lamp. The mountainous areas in central China are mountainous, with thick smoke, waterfalls and flowing springs, birds and flowers, lush vegetation and beautiful scenery. It is a famous tourist attraction in China.

1996 is listed as "World Natural and Cultural Heritage" by UNESCO. Since the Jin Dynasty, Mount Emei has been a Buddhist Pu Xian Dojo and one of the four famous Buddhist mountains in China. Mount Emei is higher than the five mountains, ranking first in the world, with majestic mountains, beautiful scenery and colorful weather. Known as a wonderful metaphor of "four seasons in one mountain, ten miles in different days". In spring, everything is sprouting and lush; In summer, a hundred flowers blossom and are colorful; Autumn is full of red leaves and colorful; Winter is covered with snow.

Emei Mountain is famous for its beautiful natural scenery, long Buddhist culture, rich animal and plant resources and unique geological landforms, and is known as "Emei is the best in the world". Li Bai, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, said: "There are many fairy mountains in Shu, and Emei is hard to beat." Zhou Hongyi, a poet in the Ming Dynasty, praised: "The beauty of the three pagodas is the best in the world, so you don't have to go to the sea to find Penglai." Guo Moruo, a contemporary writer, inscribed Mount Emei as "a famous mountain in the world". Mount Emei has been a resort for people to worship Buddha, visit, watch, make scientific investigation and recuperate since ancient times.
