Highlights:
Many high mountain peaks are located within Tiantangzhai Scenic Area. If you go to of the mountain at Tiantangzhai, you will have a glorious, unobstructed 360° view of the mountain peaks rolling away from you. Be sure to view a sunrise in the early morning or a sunset at night, during which the scenery is at its most spectacular. After rain has cleared out the sky, you can climb the mountain early in the morning to see the “cloud sea.” Tiantangzhai has been fought over by military strategists since ancient times and has been the focal point of many major campaigns. This was also an important area of action in the push of the Liu-Deng army into the Dabie Mountains.
