Yaoshan Scenic Area is located at the eastern end of the Funiu Mountains. An ancestor of the legendary Emperor Yao called Liu Lei is believed to have built an ancestral temple here. The area is known for its unusual rock formations, waterfalls, lush green forest, and natural springs. It is particularly beautiful in fall. Visitors can climb to the summit or take a cable car for a breathtaking view over the surrounding area. The summit often rises above a spectacular sea of clouds.

Other visitors' reviews of Yaoshan Scenic Area
Show More ReviewsIt's a 5A scenic spot with beautiful scenery and complete tourist facilities. However, it seems to lack promotion, resulting in few tourists. Consequently, the shuttle bus doesn't run on schedule, requiring tourists to call ahead. This creates a vicious cycle. Yaoshan is the least popular 5A scenic spot I've ever visited in China.
