Kongtong Mountain is situated in the range of Liupan Mountain, 15km west away from Pingliang City. It is the most famous Taoist Fairyland well known for its wonderful scenes, and its name“Kongtong”means“emptiness, lustration and naturalness”in the doctrine of its religion. In the years as early as Qin and Han dynasties, it was the place where monks and Taoists lived together, and the Emperor Shi Huang of Qin and the Wu Di of Han have once climbed up the mountain. There were shrines and temples in Tang, Song, Ming and Qing dynasties in the mountain. Ming Dynasty saw its largest scale-with more than 40 key spots of interest and historic sites, among which Kongtong Pagoda is the most famous.
Taking an area of 30 sq. km and a summit altitude of 2123m, Kongtong Mountain boasts dozens of grotesque peaks. It is covered with dense forests rolling from one steep peak to the other. You can enjoy the wonderful landscapes, the beautiful trees and flowers, the interesting caves, strange rocks and the running clouds. With Jinghe River in front of the mountain gorge and Yanzhi River behind, two rivers join together at the foot of the Mountain, making a more magnificent complex layout of the natural scenery.
