Baiyun Mountain travel Gallery




Baiyun Mountain travel Gallery
Baiyun Mountain belongs to the first provincial scenic spots approved by Guangdong Provincial Government. ‘Cloud appears everywhere on famous mountains, but here (the) White Cloud monopolizes the beauty of spring’ best portrays the Baiyun Mountain scenic spot. Baiyun Mountain was already a famous scenic spot in Guangzhou in history. One can view the whole city proper from the height of the mountain. Renowned poets and scholars of past dynasties, such as Sushi, Yang Wanli, Wang Shizhen and others once came here and left poems and words after the visit. Baiyun Mountain is a bit rectangular, measuring 7 km from south to north, and 4 km from east to west, aged around 400 million years, one of the oldest mountains in Guangdong. It has gorgeous scenery and abundant historical relics. Among the past and present Eight Sights of Guangzhou, besides ‘Wind Soughing in the Pines on Baiyun Mountain’, there are ‘Pujian Spring’, ‘Looking afar in the evening from Baiyun Mountain’, ‘The Returned Monk at Jingtai’, ‘the Splendid Mountain of Cloud’, etc., which depict all the beautiful scenery of Baiyun Mountain.
