Yandang Mountains, Mountain range and geopark in Wenzhou, China
The Yandang Mountains cover 450 square kilometers with over 500 natural attractions spread across eight distinct areas featuring peaks, caves, and waterfalls.
The mountain range formed through volcanic activity during the Cretaceous period between 100 and 120 million years ago, creating diverse igneous rock formations.
Many ancient temples dot the mountainous landscape, including the reconstructed Guanyin Temple, which stands as a center of regional religious practices.
Different sections maintain specific opening hours, with Lingyan Rock, Fangdong Cave, and Dalongqiu Waterfall operating from 6:00 to 18:00 throughout the year.
The mountains contain rare plant species such as Carex yandangshanica and Cyclosorus yandangensis, which grow exclusively in this region.
