Lushan Mountain, towering over the southern bank of the Yangtze River, is situated to the south of Jiujiang City. It covers an area of 300 square kilometers (30,000 hectares), with Dahanyang Peak, its highest summit, rising up 1,474 meters above sea level.
With its imposing peaks, peculiar stone formations, unique waterfalls, abundant trees and flowers and many historical sites, the mountain is labeled one of the most famous mountains in the country and was included on the UNESCO world heritage list in 1996. When springtime arrives, the trees in the area turn green once again and the flowers begin to blossom. The mountain is the best place to get the springtime back in your step and enjoy the colorful summer scenery.
