We had decided we wanted to visit some place in China a little off the beaten path that is a little less travelled by the typical foreign tourist. After a lot of research and recommendations we decided to head to Huangshan (or Yellow Mountain 黄山). 

There four wonders of Yellow Mountain. The first is the pine trees that grow out of the rocks. They seem like they have no reason existing on these mountains, but seeds fell into the crevices and they would grow, often with a crooked and downward angle growing branches only on one side. 

The second are the grotesque rock formations. These rocks have sparked the imaginations of visitors over the years, many of them being given names to represent shapes they form such as animals, people, birds, and even a cell phone. 

The third wonder is the Sea of Clouds which are very common and forever changing. 

The last wonder is the Huangshan Hot Springs which are free from sulphur and contains many trace elements beneficial to health.
