The sea of clouds at Sanqing Mountain in Jiangxi is as beautiful as a painting

In late autumn, Sanqing Mountain in Jiangxi presents a magnificent sea of clouds, with layers of green peaks faintly visible through the mist, resembling an ink wash painting. Located in the northeast of Shangrao City, Sanqing Mountain is known as the "Little Huangshan" and is named after its three peaks that resemble the three revered Taoist deities. It is a famous Taoist mountain, full of ethereal charm. Here, visitors can enjoy the sunrise over the sea of clouds, admire the vividly shaped strange rocks among the mountains, and walk along the high-altitude plank road to take in the scenery. The Nanqingyuan Scenic Area is a concentration of natural wonders. The iconic "Eastern Goddess" rock formation, shaped like a long-haired maiden with a peaceful expression, can be seen by taking the Jinsha Cableway (East Cableway) up the mountain; the "Giant Python Emerging from the Mountain" rock pillar resembles a giant python breaking through the mountain and faces the "Eastern Goddess" from afar, both visible during your visit to Nanqingyuan. Additionally, there are many other strange peaks and rocks such as the Laughing Jade Maiden and the Monkey King Offering Treasures. Use your imagination while exploring to truly appreciate the miracles of nature’s creations. Come to Sanqing Mountain to encounter this dreamlike and magical scenery and embark on an unforgettable fairyland journey!
