Mt. Guanmen is located in Benxi County, 48 kms from downtown Benxi. Tow peaks face each other like a traditional Chinese gate (men), hence its name. There are three gates in the mountain: the North Gate, the South Gate, and the Central Gate. Mt. Guanmen is charming with its beautiful landscape, and various species of flowers and birds. The peaks are precipitous, and the scenery is like man-made poted landscapes. After rains early in the morning, the mountain is enveloped by fog. In spring, flowers of various species blossom, covering the mountain. Autumn is the best season to enjoy the splendid view of maple leaves and ancient cypresses. |
