It is located in Dalongqiu Scenic Area. This peak is tall and soaring, located on the north side of the east ridge at the junction of the inner west valley and the outer west valley. The Ming Dynasty person He Bai had the line ‘A hundred miles on the river, the Furong Peak is seen’. Precisely because this peak towers into the clouds, it is particularly eye-catching. As early as the Southern and Northern Dynasties, there is a record in ‘Collected Works of Xie Lingyun’ that ‘There are towering stones in Furong Shoal like newly born hibiscus, all in blue and white colors’. In ‘Taiping Huanyu Ji’, a national local chronicle compiled in the Northern Song Dynasty, there is also a description that ‘Furong Mountain is majestic like a hibiscus, with alternating red and blue colors, and is named as such’. Sightseeing guide: The ideal observation point is on Maanling. One can see a single peak standing out, with the green stones on the peak top uneven, like newly sprouted shoots. Looking back from Lianxiao Ridge, this peak is like Guanyin sitting cross-legged facing north. There are two rocks in front like boys, so it is also called Guanyin Rock. In addition, people can see Furong Peak in many places. For example, looking up to the right from the mountain depression 200 meters away from the parking lot in Dalongqiu, or looking up to the west from Luohansi Village, one can see its different shapes. In the area of Dongling and Shimen, one can also see its different beautiful postures from time to time. Open all year round and open all day.
