Super Beautiful Couple's Mountain in Guangdong, and Neighbor to China's First Beach! Legend Says Bathing Here Can Grant a Hundred Years of Life.
Immerse yourself in the world while traveling, and feel the wonder in life. Welcome everyone to the Tourism and Photography Channel.
Today, the editor introduces a hidden gem in mainland China – Yan Jing Ridge. Yan Jing Ridge is located approximately 4 kilometers west of China First Beach Resort and Holiday Area in Dianbai District, Maoming City, Guangdong Province. Yan Jing Ridge is renowned for its winding mountain ridges, resembling a reclining Buddha when viewed from the side. Yan Jing Ridge is coastal, with the sea's depth seemingly endless, vast blue waves, and fine, soft sand along the shore, dotted with rocks, and crashing waves create a flurry of white foam.
The reason Yan Jing Ridge is also known as 'Couple's Mountain' is linked to the local dialect. The common name for Yan Jing Ridge is Li Hua, belonging to the (Minnan Language Family). Due to Yan Jing Ridge's altitude of 400 meters, its coastal location, and relatively few visitors, almost untouched by development, with the sea facing and mountains behind, offering a panoramic view of a hundred miles, standing on the summit of Yan Jing Ridge to watch the sunrise is truly a romantic experience.
Near the coast of Yan Jing Ridge, there is also a beautiful cluster of rock formations, which is a designated fishing area in the resort's planning. Here, you can sit on the rocks to fish, allowing you to experience the joy of primitive fishing up close, accompanied by the sound of waves crashing against the rocks. As the sunset descends and the night falls, a sense of otherworldly beauty arises, like a retreat to the mountains.
Additionally, Yan Jing Ridge boasts two attractions you must see: Tongzi Bay, the Worship of Guan Yin and Yan Jing Ganquan Spring. It is said that couples who drink the spring water from the Yan Jing Ganquan Spring will be even more loving and happy; and after bathing in the spring, men and women will live to be over 100 years old.
There is also a famous high-altitude gliding base here, utilizing Yan Jing Ridge's stable power air currents to develop a gliding base. Many gliding enthusiasts come here to experience the thrill of gliding over the sea, admiring the entire seascape and the scenery of Yan Jing Ridge.
Yan Jing Ridge still retains the remnants of a former outpost set up by the People's Liberation Army during the initial years of the founding of the People's Republic of China to guard against a potential counterattack by Chiang Kai-shek. The outpost remains as a famous scenic spot, and is practically a must-photograph destination for anyone visiting Yan Jing Ridge.
So, how about it? Through the editor's introduction, isn't Yan Jing Ridge appealing? Remember to apply sunscreen, check the weather forecast, pack your own food, and choose a safe route when climbing, as the unmaintained areas can be dangerous.
