Shrouded in mist and clouds hovering above the humid valley, the Yellow Mountains form a striking landscape with their stunning views of canyons, precipices and bare peaks. This scenery, which has inspired many poets and painters, now attracts hikers in search of challenging or life-changing climbs. At the foot of the peaks, divided into four "seas of clouds", picturesque farming villages cultivate tea. Some of these villages are home to magnificent houses built by the wealthy merchants of the area.
