~Day 3~


Day 3 was the highlight of our trip, where we were able to view various beautiful sceneries of Huangshan.  It was also the most tiring day of the entire trip, considering that we walked 4-5 hours during the day.   

Thank you for viewing and hope you enjoy my photos!

P.S. Due to the large amount of photos present on this page, the page might take a bit longer time to fully load.  Sorry for the inconvenience.

~Sunrise(日出)~

This sunrise was viewed from the Lion Peak.  When I arrived there at 5:15 am, the place was already crowded with groups of people also waiting for sunrise.  This is one of the most beautiful sunrises I've ever seen.  The first photo is a panorama.

~Bright Peak(光明頂)~

Bright Peak is the highest reachable peak of Huangshan, with an altitude of 1860 m.  I was slightly disappointed by the scenery at the peak because the mountains were all covered in fog.  Below are some snapshots taken at the Bright Peak.
