The Qinling Mountain Tea Series - Part 6: What is Qinling Mt.

On this page
    Regardless of the perspective,
    The Qinling Mountains
    are a significant mountain range.
    Situated in the eastern part of the Chinese mainland, beyond the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau,
    they boast the highest peaks and ridges.
    (Please watch in landscape mode. The main ridge between Taibai Mountain in the Qinling Mountains and Aoshan Mountain has an average elevation of over 3400 meters. The highest point, Baxiantai of Taibai Mountain, reaches 3771.2 meters, making it the highest peak in the eastern part of the Chinese mainland beyond the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

    Also, a myriad of rivers

    flows through the mountain ranges,

    contributing to the growth of the Yangtze, Yellow, and Huai Rivers

    as they evolve into super rivers.

    nurturing countless living beings

    through endless time and space.

    The Qinling Mountains,

    roaring in the central expanse of China's territory,

    with countless peaks extending endlessly,

    have finally shaped this land

    into the familiar landscape, we know.

    into the familiar and majestic land
    we recognize as our beloved Huaxia.
