Jianglang Mountain stands at the intersection of Zhejiang, Fujian, and Jiangxi provinces, unfolding like a geological epic—its three solitary peaks, carved over 200 million years, pierce through seas of clouds, embodying Xu Xiake's poetic description of "unrivaled grandeur." This living fossil of Danxia landform performs nature's symphonic poem with its crimson cliffs. At dawn, Lang Peak transforms into a giant shrouded in mist; at sunset, the "Thread of Sky" becomes a molten golden fissure. The moss-covered ancient stone steps form a time tunnel connecting to the ancient Wu-Yue trail, while the ever-changing clouds near Xiake Pavilion hold the lingering charm of Huang Gongwang's ink paintings. More than a UNESCO World Heritage geological wonder, it's the rhyming verse in Xie Lingyun's landscape poetry—a vibrant rhapsody that transcends millennia. II.
