Hint: It is a mountain as well as a geological park in central China.

It looks like Mt. Huashan in Shaanxi Province. But Mt. Huashan is not a geological park. This one is really difficult.

TCG.com Moderators,

I believe that this photo is from the heart of Henan province and is refered to as Song Mountain (Songshan). As described in Zhengzhou Attractions, the Song Mountain Range is comprised of 72 mountains, mainly grouped around the peaks of Mount Shaoshi and Mount Taishi. The landscape is so unique that it has been given the title of 'International Geological Park' by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).


Although I have never been there, I got this information from:

Maybe. But you know, there are a lot of mountains in Henan and China. So, it may be another one. But it's really hard to guess.

It is really hard to guess. But I want to know how many geological parks in China. This may be helpful.

Is it a national one or granted by the UNESCO? I got the info from the internet which says that there are 18 world geological parks in China. Meanwhile, China has about 118 national geological parks. This one is really hard.

Dear all,

The photo guessing of August 8th is finished. We are sorry to tell you that no one here got the correct name of this tourist attraction. It is Yuntai Mountain situated in Xiuwu County, Henan Province. We admit that this one is really difficult. But do not feel frustrated. Just enjoy yourself in this competition.

Sincerely,
Christine
