Huangshan Weather
Introduction
Look far from Yuping Tower, you could see an unique rock on the top of Genyun Peak. It seems a tiny "squirrel" squatted on the rocks, as if to jump up across the Tiandu Peak. This is the famous "Squirrel jumps up the Tiandu Peak".
Huangshan is beautiful all year round. In spring (March to May), all flowers blossom, pines turn green and the birds sing beautifully. Summer (June-August) is the best time to appreciate the pines and prevent sunstroke. In autumn (September to November), tourists can see the pines, rocks, maples and chrysanthemum. In winter tourists could admire the snow and the rimed trees. When the weather is fine, you could view the grotesque rocks, when it is cloudy, you can appreciate the changing clouds, when it rains, you could see the springs and waterfalls, when it snows, you could see the crystal tree and Rimed tree, when it is windy, you could listen to the sound made by the swinging pines. You could be satisfied in any kind of weather.
Highlight
Odd-shaped pines, grotesque rocks, seas of clouds, hot springs and snow are the five wonders of Mt Huang. Odd-shaped pines: "some of them are several meters in height while some of them are only less than one meter, and they grow under the rocks instead of the earth." There are over 100 famous pines, 32 of which are listed in the world heritage list. Grotesque rocks: there are over 120 namable sites of such rocks which are interesting and extremely wonderful. They form a contrast with odd-shaped pines and look very magnificent. "The view of Mt Huang is top of the world, and its top view is the grotesque rocks." Seas of clouds are the magician of Huangshan. They add livingness to Huangshan. "It is believed that the clouds are the sea, not believe that the sea is the clouds." There are carbonates in the hot spring water which can be bathed and drank. The temperature of the water stays at 42 degree all year round. "The Five Sacred Mountain cannot compared to Mt Huang as they do not have hot springs." It is agreed by the tourists that snow is a wonder in Mt Huang. In winter, Huangshan is like a crystal palace.
