Nine Dragon Pine
九龙松
A thousand-year-old Chinese pine in Wudaoying Township whose branches coil like nine dragons, hailed as the most extraordinary pine under heaven; it is a 2A-rated scenic spot.
The Nine Dragon Pine stands in Sandaoying Village of Wudaoying Township, about 15 kilometers northwest of Fengning County town. Legend says it was planted in the mid-Northern Song dynasty. The tree is nearly a thousand years old and not especially tall, but its branches stretch out horizontally and coil like nine dragons, earning it the title “the most extraordinary pine under heaven.” The Nine Dragon Pine Park where it stands is a national 2A-rated scenic area. A visit takes about an hour and is convenient on the way back. Admission should be checked on site.
