Mysterious South Zhejiang: Shimate Rock, the strange and towering stalagmite

In the northeast of Yongjia Nanxi River Scenic Tourist Area, there is a solitary peak rising from the ground, surrounded by water on three sides, with a relative height of 306 meters, shaped like a ship's mast, called " ", with a majestic posture, proudly towering, known as the "Pillar of South Zhejiang". Entering the scenic area, you can see the long bridge lying on the waves, the green water like a belt, and a huge rock in the middle, which is surrounded by undulating mountains, towering like a jade mountain about to collapse, just like the iron mace among the eighteen weapons, piercing the sky; it also looks like a ship's tail in the layers of waves, breaking the waves. It is "the solitary peak in the sea". The top of the rock is like a lotus bud, standing shoulder to shoulder, the afternoon sun shines on the rock wall, presenting a strange color of red and light purple. Walking along the quiet and green mountain path, waiting for the stockade gate, crossing the stone bridge, wading through the long beach, a deep pool blocks the way. Here you can take a boat, the boat sails past the cliffs as black as iron, on the cliff is a plank road in the air, just like the fjord scenery in Norway. Abandoning the boat and landing, you can see the strange and mysterious peaks such as General Rock, Camel Peak, etc., the green waves reflect the maple leaves as bright as clouds, and the bamboo rafts in the wild crossing are drifting from the stream. Address: Baiyan Line, Hesheng Town, Yongjia Navigation: "Shimate Rock" Ticket: 50 yuan (including boat ride), buy 40 online 2 hours in advance. Parking: 10 yuan
