The natural oxygen bar in the small town

If you're wondering where to go for a stroll on a rainy day, Yanping Jiufeng Mountain is a very good choice. Not only can you climb high to overlook the scenery of the entire city, but you can also feel the unique historical and cultural atmosphere of Yanping. Being in such a natural oxygen bar, you can exercise your body and relax your mind. Jiufeng Mountain offers extraordinary views, overlooking the mountain city amidst the haze. The scenery evokes a sense of past and present, as one lingers by the railing for a long time. The lush vegetation and ancient Tan state, with ten miles of streams leading to a blue flow. A prosperity dense as stars, the mountain city's new look brightens both eyes. Jiufeng Mountain is located to the southeast of the urban area, facing the city across the river. Named for the nine peaks that rise in succession, it is the crown of all the surrounding peaks of the city, with attractions such as 'Jiufeng Moon Bright', 'Ape Cave Autumn Wind', 'Three Temples Amidst Clouds', 'Secluded and Elegant Hidden Garden', 'Cold Wind Refreshing Pavilion', 'Ancient Pagoda Overlooking the River', 'Cold Spring Listening to Rhymes', and 'Martyrs' Tall Steles'. Jiufeng Mountain has an elegant environment, and 'Jiufeng Moon Bright' is one of the ancient eight scenic spots of Nanping. Lu Song, the Ming Dynasty prefect of Nanping, wrote in a poem: 'Lotuses stand tall in the vast sky, the clear sky washed as the moonlight is dense. The view is so beautiful it could be a painting, not even the five peaks of Mount Kuanglu can compare.' Scholars of the Song Dynasty such as Yang Shi, Luo Congyan, Li Tong, and Zhu Xi have lectured here, praising the scenery of Jiufeng Mountain as 'nine layers of emerald screens'. Jiufeng Mountain's strategic position is critical, a place of military contention. Wen Tianxiang set up the Governor's Mansion in Yanping to command the army against the Yuan, defending Jiufeng and shielding Fuzhou. Jiufeng Mountain now has a zoo with rare animals such as South China tigers, leopards, macaques, elephants, and hippos, and also features an aquarium, peacock garden, and more.
