Qifeng Yishi

Qifeng Yishi means “strange-shaped boulders and rocks.” If you drive along 204 National Road past Dazhushan Mountain, you will see on the southern slope of the mountain a stone turtle climbing towards the peak. Legend has it that it used to be the gold turtle kept in the Yaochi Pool of the Queen Mother of the West. It slipped away from her during the Pantao Party and went to the East Sea along the Milky Way. It finally arrived at Dazhushan Mountain. Looking to the north, you can see a huge rock shaped like a girl carrying a basket. To the south a rock stands on the top of the peak like a mighty eagle overlooking his territory. Also on the northern slope there is a rock like a monk in a robe and holding a staff. In the middle of the mountain there is a set of rocks that looks like the four main characters of The Journey to the West. Another mountain to the north looks like a horse in the sky. Also, one of the peaks looks like Zhongkui Beating the Ghost. Apart from these, many other peaks are like sculptures made by nature. You will marvel at how life-like they are.
