## About Mount Kuaiji

Mount Kuaiji has a deep connection with Yu the Great, the legendary founding sage-king and hero of flood control in ancient China. The scenic area consists of five sections: the Mausoleum of Yu the Great, Incense Burner Peak, Wanwei Hill, Shifan Hill and Ruoye Stream. Standing at the summit of Mount Kuaiji, you can take in the ancient city of Shaoxing below, while distant mountain ranges stretch on, half-hidden in mist like a painting in pale ink.
