Mountain serenity and distant clouds—

South Mountain Park, located at the elevated southern edge of Xining, offers a perfect vantage point to overlook the entire city. Early in the morning, I strolled up the mountain path, feeling the gentle breeze and admiring the lush green pines and cypresses. This natural mountain, bordering the city, seems like a silent guardian, existing quietly through the cycles of sunrise and moonrise. Standing on the observation deck, I gazed into the distance, taking in the entirety of Xining—its scattered buildings and winding rivers—like a tapestry woven on the plateau.

The park not only boasts natural mountain scenery but also features poetic pavilions and meticulously designed flower gardens. On a sunny day, I passed by an elderly couple sitting closely together on a bench, their quiet companionship touching my heart with a sense of timeless tranquility. South Mountain Park is not only Xining's backyard retreat but also a haven of poetic beauty for travelers.
