Huangshan is a representative of the beauty of jianghuai mountains and rivers.
When the Ming Dynasty traveler Xu Xiake landed on the Huangshan Mountain, he exclaimed: "The famous mountains at home and abroad are nothing like the Huangshan Mountains of Hui." Climb the Yellow Mountain, there is no mountain in the world, and the view stops! It has been extended by posterity to "the return of the Five Mountains does not look at the mountain, and the return of the Yellow Mountain does not look at the Mountain".
Here the mountains are high and deep, the clouds are foggy, the humidity is large, the precipitation is more, there is no heat in summer, and there is less severe cold in winter, which is a natural oxygen bar for rape peanuts. Every year in March and April, the rural fields and hillside villages of Huangshan Are golden everywhere, and the land of Huizhou is beautiful with hundreds of thousands of acres of flowers.
