Brief：Lushan National Park
Keyword：Lushan National Park

Lushan National Park
Lushan National Park is a well-known tourist attraction both in China and abroad. It has appealed to innumerable visitors on account of its natural sceneries and cultural heritages.

Lushan lies in the south of Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province. It has a vantage position to the south of China's longest river, the Yangtze River, to the north of the Tengwang Pavilion, to the east of the railway from Beijing to Kowloon and to the west of China's largest freshwater lake, the Poyang Lake.

The national park covers an area of 500 square kilometers (about 320 square miles) and has more than 90 mountain peaks. The tallest of these is Hanyang Peak which soars to a height of 1473.4 meters (4,834 feet). Lushan owes its reputation to its wonderful, elegant, steep and spectacular features that embrace ravines, waterfalls, grottoes, rocks and rivulets. There are 12 main scenic areas, together with 37 attractions, over 900 cliff inscriptions, and over 300 steles. The major spots include Wulao Feng, Sandie Spring, Lulin Lake, Flower Path, Ruqin Lake, Jinxiu Valley, Xianren Dong and Donglin Temple, etc.

Wulao Feng, 1,436 meters (about 4,711feet) above sea level, is located in the southeast of Lushan. Its five parallel peaks once formed a single apex and standing on the top you will be rewarded with a magnificent view of the distant mountains, trees, lakes, and a seemingly endless sky.

Sandie Spring lies below Wulao Feng. It drops through three craggy tiers with a fall of 155 meters (about 509 feet). The upper part is like snow falling down to the pond; the middle reach wanders and twists with splashing sprays dancing in the air; while the lower level resembles a jade dragon running in the pond. This is considered to be the best of the Lushan waterfalls. It is said that you are not a true visitor here if you miss Sandie Spring. However, it was not discovered until the Southern Song Dynasty (1127-1279) due to its hidden position in a deep gully.

Gu Ling, located in the center of Lushan, is 1,164 meters (about 3,819 feet) above sea level with mountains on three sides and the valley on the other. The original name of Gu Ling was Guniu Ling, as it looks like a bull. Gu Ling Street is 1,167 meters (about 3,829 feet) long and it has a variety of shops, hotels, restaurants, bookshops, bars, coffee houses and dance halls that together form a town high in the sky. The Center Park in Gu Ling was built in 1954. After several reconstructions it now covers 10,000 square meters (about 11,960 square yards). In the park there is a large half moon shaped parterre in which stands a great stone bull that is the symbol of Gu Ling. He is two meters (about seven feet) in height and four meters (about 13 feet) in length. The base of the bull bears character 'Gu Ling'. Meandering pathways, fragrant flowers, flourishing trees and a pavilion all add to lively atmosphere of this delightful place.

　　大江、大湖、大山浑然一体，雄奇险秀，刚柔并济，形成了江西罕见的壮丽景观。“春如梦、夏如滴、秋如醉、冬如玉”，更构成一幅充满魅力的立体天然山水画。历史造就此山，文化孕育此山，名人喜爱此山，世人赞美此山。源远流长的历史和数千年博大精深的文化蕴育了庐山无比丰厚的内涵，使她不仅风光秀丽，更集教育名山、文化名山、宗教名山、政治名山于一身。从司马迁“南登庐山”，到陶渊明、李白、白居易、苏轼、王安石、黄庭坚、陆游、朱熹、康有为、胡适、郭沫若等文坛巨匠或陈运和等诗文名家1500余位登临庐山，留下4000余首诗词歌赋的文化名山的确立；从慧远始建东林寺，开创“净土法门”，到集佛、道、天主、基督、伊斯兰教于一身的宗教圣地的形成；从朱熹重建白鹿洞书院和爱莲池弘扬“理学”，到教育丰碑的构建；从“借得名山避世哗”的隐居之庐，到上世纪初世界25个国家风格的庐山别墅群的兴建；从胡先骕创建中国第一个亚热带山地植物园，到李四光“第四纪冰川”学说的创立；从20世纪中叶，庐山成为国民政府的“夏都”，到庐山作为政治名山地位的体现。庐山的历史遗迹，代表了中国历史发展的大趋势，处处闪烁着中华民族历史文化的光华，充分展示了庐山极高的历史、文化、科学和美学价值。她是千古名山，得全国人民厚爱及世界的肯定，获一系列殊荣：乃首批国家重点风景区、全国风景名胜区先进单位、中国首批5A级旅游区、全国文明风景区、全国卫生山、全国安全山、中华十大名山、世界遗产——我国第一处世界文化景观、我国首批世界地质公园。

　　庐山是一座地垒式断块山，外险内秀。具有河流、湖泊、坡地、山峰等多种地貌。主峰——大汉阳峰，海拔1474米；庐山自古命名的山峰便有171座。群峰间散布冈岭26座，壑谷20条，岩洞16个，怪石22处。水流在河谷发育裂点，形成许多急流与瀑布，瀑布22处，溪涧18条，湖潭14处。著名的三叠泉瀑布，落差达155米。庐山奇特瑰丽的山水景观具有极高的科学价值和旅游观赏价值。

　　庐山生物资源丰富。森林覆盖率达76.6%。高等植物近3000种，昆虫2000余种，鸟类170余种，兽类37种。山麓鄱阳湖候鸟保护区，是“鹤的王国”，有世界最大的白鹤群，被誉为中国的“第二座万里长城”。

　　庐山虽地处中国亚热带东部季风区域，但山高谷深，具有鲜明的山地气候特征。夏季凉爽，7月平均气温21.9℃。江湖水气郁结，云海弥漫，年平均雾日191天，有“不识庐山真面目”之称。年平均降水1917毫米，年平均相对湿度78%，每年7月～9月平均温度16.9℃度，夏季极端最高温度32℃。良好的气候和优美的自然环境，使庐山成为世界著名的避暑胜地。
