6. Mount Sanqing
Mount Sanqing is a renowned sacred Taoist mountain 40 km north of Yushan county in Jiangxi province. Sanqing in Chinese means the "Three Pure Ones" as Mount Sanqing is made up of three peaks representing the Taoist trinity.
The landscape resembles famous Mount Huangshan, which is located not far anyway but is much more crowded. Picturesque rock formations, a sea of clouds, and many streams and waterfalls are its main attractions. It was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2008.
If you go: The closest airport to Mount Sanqing is Quzhou Airport in neighboring Zhejiang province. It's a one-and-a-half hour drive from the airport. There are buses running between Mount Sanqing and the railway and the bus stations of Yushan county town, which is about 50 km from the scenic spot. You can also reach Mount Sanqing from the railway station or bus station in Shangrao city, which is connected to major cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou by many trains.
