I found a piece of jade at the foot of Mount Huang

This place is truly like jade fallen from the sky, hidden in waterfalls, streams, amidst the flowers and green grass, and within the blue sky and white clouds. Everywhere you look is green, cleansing the heart, lungs, and soul, and the feeling of letting oneself go is just too wonderful. The Yellow Jade Valley is nestled deep in the Huangshan mountain range, named for its clear, emerald-green waters. There are many waterfalls in the Jade Valley, among which the most famous is the 'Celestial Maiden Lake Waterfall'. The Jade Valley is the longest canyon at the foot of Huangshan, with a depth of about 20 kilometers. The stream in the valley is called 'Bi Yu Creek', originating from the peaks of Lian Dan, Shi Xin, and Celestial Maiden. Strange rocks stand tall in the valley, with babbling brooks and spectacular scenery. The Jade Valley consists of dozens of pools of varying depths, which under the sunlight, reflect shades of green, orange, blue, yellow, white, and other colors, making it incredibly beautiful. There are over a hundred pools of different shapes and sizes scattered throughout the valley, with crystal-clear, emerald waters, brightly colored pebbles at the bottom, and the surrounding scenery is picturesque. Depending on the angle of the sunlight and the varying intensity of light, the pools appear crystal clear or emerald green, constantly changing and dazzlingly colorful, like numerous colored jades scattered throughout the valley, hence the name Jade Valley. The film 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon', which won four Oscars, shot scenes such as bamboo fights, poolside romance, and walking on waterfalls in the Jade Valley. Transportation Information: The Jade Valley is located between Xian Du Peak and Luo Han Peak of Huangshan, with the valley entrance at Shang Zhang Village in Tangkou Town, Huangshan City, near the G205 national highway.
