The Xiangshi Mountain Xianju Scenic Area is beautiful and charming. It is a national key scenic spot. In the scenic area, there are strange peaks and rocks, flowing pools and waterfalls, secluded valleys and clear streams, green valleys and beautiful forests. Everywhere contains magical legends and moving stories. Zhu Xi of the Southern Song Dynasty visited Xianju twice and exclaimed: “The earth’s qi all hangs down here!” Xiangshi Mountain is of Danxia landform.
In the scenic area, there are sheer cliffs standing upright, stone beams hanging in the air, gullies crisscrossing, streams gurgling, lush vegetation, and the sounds of birds and the fragrance of flowers. The realm is outstanding with its tranquility. Professor Yu Xuecai, director of the Tourism Research Institute of Southeast University, came here for tourism and praised it in a poem: “One cave connects a hundred caves, a thousand peaks share the same sky. The valleys are full of green oil-tea trees, and everywhere are peaks and ridges in red. Landscapes are the framework, and immortals are the lungs and liver. The combination of human and natural ingenuity creates an artistic conception superior to Jing Guan.” The biological fossil landscapes such as shell fossils (ringing stones) and dinosaur fossils at the bottom of mountain slopes and valleys add even more magical colors and endless fun.
