## About Zhuyu Peak

Speaking of Zhuyu Peak, you may recall the poet Wang Wei's line 'Everyone has a sprig of cornel in their hair but one'? Although the peak takes its name from this, Wang Wei was not a travel writer, and the claim that he wrote 'Thinking of My Brothers in Shandong on the Double Ninth' here is not accurate. Climb the ladder-and-plank walkway to the peak, 1,308 metres above sea level, and the view over the rolling mountain ranges will not disappoint you.
