Its five peaks, when viewed from a specific angle, resemble the petals of a beautiful flower. Despite its beauty, the mountain is considered one of the steepest on the planet, ranking it amongst the most dangerous when it comes to mountain hiking trails. Mount Huashan and Chinese Culture The mountain itself sits amongst four others, all of which are considered the sacred mountains of China. Mount Huashan is considered one of the holiest mountains, as the Taoist temples found on its embankments were once frequent destinations during the pilgrimages held by ancient emperors. The Many Peaks of Mount Huashan As noted earlier, Mount Huashan consists of five very distinct peaks, or flower petals. The Middle Peak is fondly referred to as Jade Maiden Peak. Standing approximately 6,846 feet above sea level is the West Peak, or Lotus Peak.

PARKEO - Lugares de estacionamiento en México BETA Citymaps Escape the crowds: Quietest ski resorts - OnTheSnow Escape the crowds this winter, find an unsung ski resort in which to hone your skills. Crowd-free skiing means less time queuing for lifts and more time on the slopes. Choosing a resort away from the masses gives beginners the space to build their confidence and technique while expert skiers push their skills to the limits and explore the untracked off-piste powder. On the whole, crowd-free ski resorts tend to have a more laid-back atmopshere and low-key apres-ski scene - qualities often favoured by families or couples seeking a quiet getaway. OnTheSnow has put together a list of eight crowd-free ski resorts in Europe, with two for each category: freeriders, beginners & intermediates, family-friendly and upmarket resorts. The Monterosa ski area in Italy is relatively unknown internationally, but it comprises 180 kilometres of slopes.
