Located in the magnificent mountainous regions of southern Anhui, and with an area of 1,200 square kilometers, Huangshan Mountain Global Geopark is a geopark known for its Mesozoic-era granite landforms. About 140 million years ago in the Late Jurassic period, hot magma erupted along the geological fault line in the Huangshan Mountain region. Around 65 million years ago, the rock formations in the Huangshan region were forced upwards from intense pressure. As the crust was intermittently uplifted, both rock formations underground and those on the surface suffered weathering and erosion. At the same time, they were affected by various tectonic stresses from different directions, resulting in the formation of geological jointings going in different directions. Since the beginning of the Quaternary period 1.75 million years ago, intermittent uplifts have formed three levels of erosion surfaces, finally forming the Huangshan Mountain of today. These rock formations are different in mineral composition, degree of crystallization, mineral particle size, resistance to weathering, jointing characteristics, and density, thus forming the splendid and superb landscape of Huangshan Mountain. Huangshan Mountain is characterized by its “Three Natural Wonders”—odd-shaped pines, spectacular rock formations, and the ocean of clouds which surrounds its peaks. Combined with its plentiful lakes, streams and waterfalls, these reveal the uniqueness of the region. The Lima Bridge, Tiandu Peak and Beihai areas are famous for the possible occurrence of Quaternary-period glaciers. The occurrence of glaciers in Huangshan Mountain has been debated for about half a century, but no final conclusion has yet been reached so far. However, this is also where the fascination of the geopark lies.
