用英语描述的一个旅游景点

China is home to many famous mountains, such as the “Five Great Mountains”, the four sacred peaks of Buddhism, Huangshan and Lushan. Mountain areas cover two-thirds of the country.

“The Five Great Mountains,” located in the central China, were named according to the cardinal points on the compass, including Mount Tai to the east in Shandong Province, Mount Hua to the west in Shaanxi Province, Mount Heng to the south in Hunan Province, Mount Heng (same sound but different character in Chinese) to the north in Shanxi Province, and Mount Song in the center in Henan Province.

Mount Tai is in central Shandong Province to the south of the Yellow River, the second longest river in China. Its highest peak, Yuhuangding, is 1,545 meters above sea level, but absolute altitude and relative altitude are the highest within a circumference of several thousand kilometers. Since the Qin Dynasty (221-209 B.C.) many Chinese emperors held various sacrifices and religious rites on Mount Tai, making the mountain a holy site. The Dai Temple at the foot of the mountain and steles on the mountain itself reflect the ancient culture of the area.
