To the right are Lotus Peak, Lotus Pistil Peak and Holy Spring Peak. Make sure to get a good look at Lotus Pistil Peak-- viewed from distance, the rock atop the apex resembles a small boat sailing through an ocean of clouds. Also o­n Lotus Pistil Peak, o­ne can discern a peacock playing in the lotus (naturally made of stone, of course).

    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.
