Hengyang Hengshan - known as the most beautiful of the Five Great Mountains.

🏝Hengshan is located in central Hunan Province, spanning six counties and cities including Hengyang, Hengshan, Hengdong, Xiangxiang, Xiangtan, and Changsha. It covers an area of 800 li (400 km) and has 72 peaks. The main peak, Zhuru Peak, is 1,300.2 meters above sea level, standing out among the hills in central and southern Hunan. 🏝Nanyue Hengshan, also known as "Shouyue" (Longevity Mountain) because of the saying "as long-lived as Nanshan," is a popular destination for those seeking blessings for health and longevity. Among the Five Great Mountains, Hengshan is located in the south, so its vegetation is more lush, earning it the title of "the most beautiful of the Five Great Mountains." 🏝Nanyue Hengshan is famous for its beautiful scenery among the Five Great Mountains, and is known as "the most beautiful of the Five Great Mountains." It is said to be the boundary between heaven and earth, hence the name "Nantianmen" (Southern Heavenly Gate). 🏝This is also the best place to enjoy the scenery of Hengshan. In spring, you can see flowers; in summer, clouds; in autumn, the sun; and in winter, snow. The scenery is pleasing to the eye and endless. 🏝Zhuru Peak is 1,290 meters above sea level, the highest among the 72 peaks of Nanyue. It is named after the main god of Hengshan, the fire god Zhuru. The height of Zhuru Peak, the depth of Fangguang Temple, the beauty of Cangjing Pavilion, and the wonder of Shuilian Cave are collectively known as the four wonders of Hengshan. 🏝What you see now is Zhuru Hall, originally called Laosheng Hall, built during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. The existing building was rebuilt during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. Zhuru Hall is not large, with one entrance and two rooms, built on a huge rock, with granite walls and an iron-tiled roof, mostly cast during the Song Dynasty, still shiny and rust-free today. 🚥[Transportation Guide] ⭐️Take the high-speed train to Hengyang East Station, take a bus from Wangjiang Bus Station to Nanyue, or take a taxi to Nanyue Bus Station, where there is a free city bus to the Visitor Center.
