Jueshan Mountain
珏山
A Taoist mountain near Jincheng, with twin peaks facing each other. From the summit you can see the Dan River gorge. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon rises between the peaks, a sight called 'Jueshan Spitting the Moon.'
Jueshan is located in Zezhou County, about 15 km from the city center. Its two peaks stand side by side like a pair of jade pieces, which gave the mountain its name, 'Jue' (a pair of jade pendants). A complex of Taoist Zhenwu temple buildings from the Ming and Qing dynasties stands on the mountain. The Dan River flows around its base, and from the summit you can look down on the gorge and the spurs of the Taihang Mountains. Around the Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon rises between the two peaks, which is called 'Jueshan Spitting the Moon.' There is a cable car and hiking trails. The climb takes about 2 hours. Check the official source for ticket and cable car prices.
