It is said that this place is known as the Shangri-La in Jiangnan. To this day, I am not sure what "Shangri-La" means, but the peaks here are known for their towering heights. The entire Gongyu is majestic and towering, with cliffs stretching endlessly. Each peak stands alone, forming a unique entity. The stone forest and cliffs each have their own charm. In the middle of the mountain depression hangs Gongyu Village, a primitive tribe with only a dozen households. As there are no roads, it is estimated that people have moved out of the mountains, leaving behind the original earth houses for us, the hikers, to enjoy.
