Mount Qingyuan, Mountain summit in Fengze District, China.

Mount Qingyuan rises 498 meters above sea level and extends across 62 square kilometers of protected national parkland near Quanzhou city center.

The mountain gained recognition during the Tang Dynasty, with its earliest documentation dating to 221-207 BCE when it served as a strategic observation point.

The mountain contains nine large Taoist and Buddhist stone sculptures, 600 stone inscriptions, and three granite stones representing different religious traditions.

Granite paths and forest trails throughout Mount Qingyuan National Park provide access to multiple viewing points and historical monuments from April through November.

The mountain features a Song Dynasty statue of Laozi measuring 8 meters in length and 5.63 meters in height, carved directly into the stone face.
