Weird peaks and rocks of Yuntai Mountain, the love between mountain and sea at Palm Bay, the 25th day of self-driving around China

April 8, 2023, the 25th day of self-driving around China, from Dongtou District, Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province to Yuntai Mountain, Palm Bay, Sansha Town, Xiapu County, Ningde City, Fujian Province, 274 kilometers. The road winds along the bay, undulating with the mountains, looking out of the window, on one side is the sea, on the other side is the mountains, which makes me have to slow down to appreciate and record the beautiful scenery. Yuntai Mountain is located in the suburbs of Jinxiang Town, Cangnan County, 2 kilometers away from the urban area, with a quiet environment. Yuntai Mountain is not high, with an altitude of more than 370 meters. Although it does not have the grandeur of towering into the clouds, it stands alone far away from the surrounding mountains, with an extraordinary demeanor. Standing on the top of the mountain, overlooking the jade in the golden coastline - Shiping Port, looking out to the East China Sea, the sea surface extends from the shore, endless, the scenery is extremely spectacular. Another great pleasure of climbing Yuntai Mountain is to appreciate the stones. The granite boulders of various shapes are scattered on the ridge, with strange rocks and competing for beauty. Looking around, it is dazzling. All the mountains and rivers in the world that have spirit are inhabited by Buddhism and Taoism. There are many ancient buildings such as Guanyin Cave, Wuxian Temple, and Xing Shi Taoist Temple on the waist of Yuntai Mountain, and the top of the mountain is the San Yuan Taoist Temple with a history of more than 200 years. Here, the incense is strong all year round, and the clouds are lingering all day. In the eyes of good men and women, there are often immortals here, and the prayers are very spiritual, known as the 'Potala Palace of Wenzhou'. Palm Bay is bordered by the sea to the east and Hedingshan to the west. It is known as the 'Cape of Good Hope' of Cangnan because of the palm trees all over the mountains in ancient times. Palm Bay has attractions such as Anti-Japanese Camp, Crocodile Beach, and Five-Color Goose Pebble Beach. The meaning is not big, it's okay not to go. Palm Bay currently has the largest camping base in Cangnan. More than 400 tents can be placed on the top and bottom of the mountain. Listening to the sea breeze and falling asleep with the waves. But the real beauty is above, say it again: the real beauty is above. No tickets are required, no need to climb mountains, white escalators and long corridors are all above. Standing on the lookout of Palm Bay, the entire bay is shining. The long coastline is winding and undulating. The islands scattered in people's field of vision are like Penglai fairyland. The sea breeze carries the golden light, pushing wave after wave, the entire bay is like a poem and painting that makes people intoxicated. The sea and the sky are the same color, the sea and the sky are connected, the heart sinks into the sea, and the meaning is still unfolding. The waves roll away all worries, discard the vanity and noise of the world, and what is left is only the quietness of the years.
