Donghai Fairy Mountain, the hometown of the Great Sage! Visit Huaguo Mountain with 'Black Myth: Wukong'

Huaguo Mountain is the 'hometown of the Great Sage Sun' in 'Black Myth: Wukong'. It has long been known as the 'First Wonderland of the East Sea' and 'One of the Four Great Sacred Mountains in the Sea'. Huaguo Mountain, which integrates mountains, sea views, ancient sites, and mythology, has high value for viewing, touring, and historical scientific research. Its rich cultural landscape and beautiful natural scenery are highly praised by everyone. Huaguo Mountain is characterized by the interdependence of mountains and seas, ancient towering trees, gurgling streams, fragrant flowers and fruits, playful monkeys, strange peaks and caves, peculiar rocks and sea of clouds, and magical and beautiful scenery. 'Not a step out of this mountain in the entire Journey to the West, the eastward transmission of the Tripitaka is not as the novel says.' The Nuwa Stone, the birthplace of Sun Wukong related to the story of 'Journey to the West', the Water Curtain Cave where he lived, as well as the Seventy-two Caves, Tang Monk Cliff, Pigsy Stone, and Sandy Stone, are all vividly lifelike. The Jade Girl Peak of Huaguo Mountain is the highest peak in Jiangsu Province, with an altitude of 624.4 meters. It is majestic and spectacular with sheer cliffs and precipitous rock faces. Huaguo Mountain is suitable for all seasons: in spring, birds sing and flowers bloom; in summer, waterfalls rush; in autumn, the scenery is picturesque; in winter, it is covered in silver. On a sunny day, visiting Huaguo Mountain, climbing and looking into the distance, watching the sunrise over the sea, the vast ocean, and scattered sails, one feels as if 'suddenly doubting one's existence in the mortal world'; on a rainy day, climbing Huaguo Mountain, with clouds and mist, it feels like entering a painting, like being in a fairyland. The rich natural scenery and splendid historical culture, the unique mountain and water features, and the colorful mythological legends, combined with the wonderful depiction in the classical masterpiece 'Journey to the West', make Huaguo Mountain full of magical charm. The cultural landscape of Huaguo Mountain has a long history and profound cultural heritage. The ancient buildings, ancient sites, ancient stone carvings, and the traces of literati and poets from past dynasties are scattered throughout the mountain.
