Lushan Quaternary Glaciation National Geopark

The geopark extends across 500 square kilometers between the Yangtze River and Poyang Lake basin, featuring mountains, valleys, and waterfalls.

Research on the geological formations at Lushan provides connections to glacial periods, linking findings with European Alpine and North American regions.

The mountain area contains more than 4,000 poems created by 1,500 scholars who visited throughout Chinese history, establishing its literary significance.

The park maintains multiple entry points with guided tours available, and temperatures vary significantly between seasons due to elevation differences.

More than 100 glacial geological formations document the complete process from snow accumulation to glacier formation and subsequent rock erosion.
