I thought Sanqingshan and Longhushan were beautiful enough, until I came to Lingshan...
Jiangxi Shangrao Lingshan
There are many famous scenic spots in Jiangxi, such as Lushan Mountain, Sanqing Mountain, Longhu Mountain, Wuyuan, and Jingdezhen, but 20 kilometers away from the center of Shangrao City, there is also a beautiful Lingshan Scenic Area. As the mountains are rolling and undulating, they look like a beautiful girl from the south of the Yangtze River sleeping on her side, and are therefore praised by the world as "Sleeping Beauty". This beautiful and photogenic niche scenic spot is definitely worth a visit.

Many people don't know that this place has a lot of inextricable connections with "Journey to the West", such as the Monkey King coming out of the mountain, The Great Sage is back, Wukong eating peaches, Jade Rabbit thinking of the moon and other attractions have many echoes with "Journey to the West".
