Shizhong Mountain Travel Guide

Shizhong Mountain Travel Guide I regret not climbing this mountain earlier, which was mentioned in Su Shi's poem❗️ Shizhong Mountain, known as "China's First Mountain of Ancient Sounds," is located in the old city of Hukou County, Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province, at the confluence of the Yangtze River and Poyang Lake. 🌱 Shizhong Mountain is a national 4A-level tourist attraction, a major attraction along the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and one of the top ten tourist attractions in Jiangxi Province. 🖼 Shizhong Mountain has an altitude of 61.8 meters, a relative height of about 40 meters, and an area of 0.2 square kilometers. It is named after the sound of a bell produced by the water and stones colliding with the mountain's many crevices. 🍁 Su Shi, a great writer of the Northern Song Dynasty, once anchored his boat at the foot of the mountain at night. His "Record of Shizhong Mountain" is famous worldwide and complements Shizhong Mountain. 🍂 The rocks here are mainly composed of limestone, with typical karst landform features, forming various unique landscapes such as caves, stone forests, and stone peaks. 🤗 👣 The scenic area has many famous attractions, such as Zhaozhong Temple, Baoci Zen Forest, Huanxiang Villa, Shangyu Pavilion, Jiangtian Yilan Pavilion, Meihua Hall, Fanzhou Pavilion, and Beilang. These attractions have both natural scenery and historical and cultural heritage. Among them, Zhaozhong Temple was built to commemorate the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom army, Baoci Zen Forest is an ancient Buddhist temple, and Jiangtian Yilan Pavilion is the best place to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Poyang Lake. 🌱 📍 Scenic Area Address: Shuangzhong Town, Hukou County, Jiangxi Province.
