Qinglong Mountain Viewpoint
青龙山
A viewpoint on a solitary karst peak beside Puzhehei Village. Climb about 500 steps for panoramic views of lakes, lotus ponds, and peaks, making it the top spot for watching the sunset.
Qinglong Mountain is a standalone karst peak next to Puzhehei Village, with a viewpoint on its summit. It is the best place to see the full panorama of Puzhehei. Below are the village houses and lakes, while in the distance dozens of cone-shaped peaks are scattered among lotus ponds and fields, with waterways winding between them. The trail is made of stone steps, takes about 20 to 30 minutes, and has a moderate but manageable slope. The best time to go is the evening, to watch the sun set behind the peaks and the lake turn golden. In the early morning, you can sometimes see clouds drifting between the peaks. The summit is small, and it can get crowded at sunset in peak season. Admission depends on the scenic area; some time slots are included in the main ticket, and others are charged separately. Getting there: the mountain is at the entrance of Puzhehei Village and is within walking distance. Note that it gets dark on the way down, so bring a flashlight, and the stone steps are slippery after rain.
