## About Chicheng Mountain

This is a solitary mountain. It is a pity that there is no water beside it, and some feel it lacks spiritual energy. In fact, what is remarkable here are the traces left by immortals and Daoist recluses, which scholars and poets, past and present, have celebrated in their writing and painting. If you look closely at the low caves inside the mountain, you can still see bamboo beds and bedding, probably the dwellings of Daoist hermits. If you happen to be on the mountain at sunrise or sunset, don’t forget to visit Guanxia Pavilion (观霞亭) to admire its most famous view, “Chicheng Qixia” (Rosy Clouds over Chicheng).
