Situated
in
Huayin
City,120
kilometers
(about
75
miles)
east
from
Xi
an
City
of
Shaanxi
Province,Mt.
Huashan
is
known
as
The
Number
One.Precipitous
Mountain
under
Heaven
.
It
is
one
of
the
five
sacred
mountains
in
China.
The
other
four
mountains
are
Mt.
Taishan
in
Shandong,Mt.
Hengshan
in
Hunan,Mt.
Hengshan
in
Shanxi,and
Mt.
Songshan
in
Henan.
In
ancient
times,Mt.
Huashan
was
called
Mt.
Taihuashan.
From
a
distance
the
five
peaks
seem
to
form
the
shape
of
a
flower
(hua
in
Chinese),hence
the
name
Huashan
.
It
is
famous
for
its
natural
vistas
of
steep
and
narrow
paths,precipitous
crags,and
a
high
mountain
range.
It
is
home
to
several
influential
Taoist
temples
where
emperors
of
past
dynasties
made
pilgrimages,making
Mt.
Huashan
the
holy
land
of
Taoism.
Yuquan
Yuan
(Jade
Spring
Temple)
Usually
tourists
climb
up
the
mountain
assisted
by
the
iron
chains
along
the
way
and
start
their
tour
from
Yuquan
Yuan
(Jade
Spring
Temple),one
of
the
main
Taoist
temples
in
China
located
at
the
foot
of
Mt.
Huashan.
It
has
the
architectural
style
of
the
classical
gardens
in
south
China.
There
is
a
pond
in
the
center
and
several
pavilions
around
it.
Walking
through
the
Wuyou
Pavilion,the
Long
Corridor
of
Seventy-two
Windows
comes
into
view,and
afterwards
Qingke
Ping
where
a
big
rock
called
Huixin
Rock
can
be
seen.
It
is
said
that
Huixin
Rock
is
a
reminder
for
those
who
wish
to
stop
their
tour
at
this
point.
Beside
the
rock
are
the
precipitous
370
rock
steps
called
Qianchi
Zhuang
considered
to
be
the
primary
breath-taking
path
of
Mt.
Huashan.
When
climbing,only
a
gleam
of
sky
above
can
be
seen,making
climbers
feel
as
if
they
were
at
the
bottom
of
a
well.
North
Peak
(Cloud
Terrace
Peak)
Across
the
Qianchi
Zhuang
are
two
similar
precipitous
paths-respectively
called
Baichi
Xia
and
Laojun
Li
above
which
climbers
reach
Mt.
Huashan
s
North
Peak.
There
are
precipitous
cliffs
on
all
sides
of
North
Peak,making
it
look
like
a
flat
terrace
in
the
clouds,hence
the
name
Cloud
Terrace
Peak.
It
is
1,614
meters
(about
5,295
feet)
high.
Three
sides
are
cliffs
and
one
side
is
to
the
Ca
er
(the
ear
rubbing
the
cliff)
Cliff
which
is
the
fourth
precipitous
path
where
tourists
can
climb
up
only
by
pressing
an
ear
close
to
the
cliff.
In
the
waist
of
North
Peak
trees
are
luxuriantly
green,creating
a
good
rest
spot.
Jinsuo
Guan
(Gold
Lock
Pass)
When
climbing
over
the
Blue
Dragon
Range,regarded
as
the
must-pass
way
to
the
other
four
peaks
from
North
Peak,travelers
arrive
at
Gold
Lock
Pass.
Mt.
Huashan
visitors
know
that
it
is
customary
to
buy
a
golden
lock,and
then
lock
it
in
the
iron
chains
on
both
sides
of
the
Gold
Lock
Pass
for
families
and
friends
to
pray
for
their
safety
and
health.
It
is
a
marvelous
spectacle
to
see
thousands
of
golden
locks
in
the
iron
chains.
Within
the
mountain
gate
of
Gold
Lock
Pass,a
huge
golden
lock
of
about
4
meters
(about
4.37
yards)
long
and
1
.5
meters
(about
1.64
yards)
high
stands
in
a
big
rock.
It
is
made
of
pure
copper
and
forged
by
9,999
locks
left
by
visitors.
It
is
a
popular
photo
site.
This
huge
lock
can
only
be
opened
by
throwing
coins
-
one
coin
represent
the
status
of
an
ordinary
person;
three
coins,a
blessed
person
and
nine
coins
a
most
blessed
one.
Gold
Lock
Pass
is
the
throat
to
Middle
Peak,East
Peak,South
Peak
and
West
Peak.
Middle
Peak
(Jade
Maiden
Peak)
Middle
Peak
clings
to
East
peak
and
is
in
the
center
of
East,South
and
West
Peaks.
There
is
a
Taoist
temple
in
the
peak
named
Jade
Maiden
Temple
.
Legend
has
it
that
the
daughter
of
Qin
Mugong
(569
B.C.-621
B.C.)
loved
a
man
who
was
good
at
playing
Chinese
tung-hsiao
(vertical
flute)
and
she
gave
up
the
royal
life
to
become
a
hermit
who
cultivated
her
spirituality
here,hence
the
name
Jade
Maiden
Peak.
Today
Jade
Maiden
Temple
and
Jade
Maiden
Basin
for
Shampooing
can
be
found
on
the
peak.
Other
scenic
spots
in
Middle
Peak
include
Rootless
Tree
and
Sacrificing
Tree
which
have
beautiful
stories
and
add
to
the
supernatural
atmosphere
of
Middle
Peak.
East
Peak
(Facing
Sun
Peak)
Tour
guides
may
promote
climbing
the
mountain
at
night
to
see
the
sunrise.
Climbing
to
the
top
of
East
Peak
requires
4
to
6
hours.
East
Peak
has
an
altitude
of
2,090
meters
(about
6,857
feet)
forming
a
platform
for
visitors
to
view
the
sunrise.
An
astronomical

is
provided
here.

One
well-known
scenic
spot
called
the
Immortal
s
Palm
Peak
of
Mt.
Huashan
which
is
ranked
as
one
of
the
Eight
Scenic
Wonders
of
the
Guanzhong
Area
(the
plain
area
in
the
middle
of
Shaanxi
Province)
is
located
on
East
Peak.
It
refers
to
the
natural
rock
veins
of
the
cliff
which
look
like
a
giant
palm-print.
Legend
has
it
that
on
March
3rd
of
the
Lunar
Calendar
a
torrential
flood
erupted,destroying
the
villages
within
the
Mt.
Huashan
area.
This
disaster
was
caused
by
the
Queen
Mother
of
the
West,who
held
her
Flat
Peach
Carnival
celebration
that
year.
She
carelessly
spilled
a
little
jade
wine
down
from
paradise,causing
a
serious
flood
below.
This
news
was
quickly
reported
by
Deity
Shaohao
to
the
Jade
Emperor
in
Celestial
Paradise.
He
gave
a
prompt
order
to
Deity
Juling
to
go
down
to
tame
the
flood.
When
Deity
Juling,full
of
vigor
and
vitality,descended
from
the
clouds,he
arrived
at
the
precipitous
cliff
of
East
Peak.
At
the
moment
that
he
laid
his
left
hand
on
one
side
and
his
right
leg
on
the
other,he
ripped
the
mountain
into
two
halves
and
immediately
a
flood
rushed
out.
This
tale
adds
luster
to
East
Peak.
South
Peak
(Landing
Wild
Geese
Peak)
Ancient
people
called
South
Peak
with
an
altitude
of
2,160
meters
(about
7,087
feet)
Monarch
of
Mt.
Huashan
because
it
is
the
highest
peak
of
Mt.
Huashan
and
also
the
highest
peak
among
the
Five
Sacred
Mountains
of
China.
Tourists
who
summit
South
Peak
are
undoubtedly
winners.
Looking
around
when
standing
at
the
peak,surrounding
mountains
are
luxuriantly
green;
the
Yellow
River
wanders
far
below
and
everything
seems
small.
Legend
has
it
that
the
wild
geese
returning
from
the
south
often
landed
at
South
Peak,giving
the
area
the
name
Landing
Wild
Geese
Peak
.
At
the
top
of
South
Peak,the
Black
Dragon
Pool
at
the
summit
and
the
Greeting
Pines
on
the
southwestern
cliff
are
two
attractive
resorts.
At
each
side
of
the
Landing
Wild
Goose
Peak
there
are
two
peaks
respectively
called
Songhui
Peak
(Pine
and
Juniper
Peak)
in
the
east
and
Xiaozi
Peak
(Filial
Son
Peak)
in
the
west.
The
three
peaks
form
a
picture
of
a
Titan
sitting
in
a
chair.
The
most
dangerous
place
is
called
Changkong
Zhandao
(a
plank
path
built
along
the
surface
of
a
vertical
cliff)
which
is
about
4
meters
(about
13
feet)
long
and
about
0.33
meters
(about
1.1
feet)
wide.
Below
is
the
bottomless
gulf
which
makes
tourists
shake
with
fear.
In
addition,there
is
a
Taoist
temple
called
Baidi
Temple
or
Jintian
Palace
to
be
considered
the
host
temple
of
Deity
Shaohao.
West
Peak
(Lotus
Flower
Peak)
West
Peak
has
very
high
cliffs
standing
erect
with
an
altitude
of
2,086.6
meters
(about
6,845
feet).
There
is
a
Taoist
temple
called
Cuiyun
Palace
before
which
a
huge
rock
looking
like
a
lotus
flower
comes
into
view,hence
the
name
Lotus
Flower
Peak.
There
are
another
seven
rocks
beside
Cuiyun
Palace,which
is
said
to
be
the
place
where
Chenxiang
(a
main
character
in
the
movie
Lotus
Lantern)
ripped
the
mountain
to
save
his
mother
(The
Heavenly
Goddess
San
Sheng
Mu).
After
visiting
the
five
peaks,tourists
can
go
down
the
mountain
from
the
path
on
the
east
side
of
West
Peak.
A
must-see
scenic
spot
-
Xi
Yue
Temple
-
is
available
to
those
interested
in
Taoist
culture.
The
Xi
Yue
Temple
is
5
kilometers
(about
3.1
miles)
north
of
the
foot
of
Mt.
Huashan
and
it
is
one
of
the
earliest
temples
in
ancient
China.
Palaces
and
gardens
are
its
main
features,resembling
the
style
of
the
Forbidden
City
in
Beijing;
thus
the
Xi
Yue
Temple
gained
fame
as
the
Forbidden
City
of
Shaanxi
Province
.
Admission
to
Xi
Yue
Temple
is
CNY

should
know
the
following:

a
pair
of

with

4.
It
is
windy
in

mountain
and
especially
humid
in

prepare
some
warm

华山有五峰，朝阳(东峰)、落雁(南峰)、莲花(西峰)、五云(北峰)、玉女(中峰)。因东南西三面是悬崖峭壁，只有柱峰顶向北倾斜打开了登华山的道路，所以有“自古华山一条路”的说法。
