　　Mount Hua is the highest of China’s five sacred mountains. It is 120kilometers east of Xian. It has five peaks that resemble the petals of a flower.The highest peak is 2180 meters (7085 feet).

　　We had had discussions about going to Mount Hua with some graduate studentsfrom Computer Science. That didn’t work out due to changes in schedules on bothsides. Also, they were planning to do the climb at night to be able to reach thepeak at sunrise. That did not appeal to us. We wanted to spend a night on themountain. Fran’s department arranged a trip for us, making reservations at thesimple hotel on the North Peak. They sent two graduate students to accompany us,though they had not been to Mount Hua before. We met them at 8:00 on Saturdaymorning and took a taxi to the train station. There we asked around and locateda mini-bus. The bus made a couple of stops. One was to see a presentation aboutthe traditional medicines grown on the mountain and a chance to buy some ofthem. It probably would have been interesting if we understood Chinese. Ourguides gave us the general outline about what was said. The other stop was aquick lunch stop.

　　There are two approaches to Mount Hua. [Chinese proverb: “There is one roadand only one road to Mount Hua,” meaning that sometimes the hard way is the onlyway.] The west entrance involves 10 kilometers of walking on a road before youstart climbing. We went with the east entrance, where the bus brings you to thebase of a cable car that goes up to the 1500 meter North Peak. Our plan was towalk up to the North Peak, then climb to the four other peaks the next day andtake the cable car down.

　　We started the climb in the early afternoon. The path consists of stonesteps with rough chain link handrails in the narrowest areas (we wore ourbicycling gloves for hand protection). Physically, it is more like climbing thesteps of a skyscraper than trails at home. However, the temperature was about 95degrees and there was not much shade. We brought lots of water, including somebottles that we froze and some Gatorade that we got at the fancy departmentstore in downtown Xian. There are plenty of refreshment stands along the waywhere you can buy bottled water, the Chinese equivalent of Gatorade, and otherdrinks or snacks at a premium price.

　　We reached the North Peak before 4:00 PM and rested at the hotel. Our roomwas basic, but comfortable and clean enough. Because water is scarce on themountain, there were neither showers nor sinks available for washing. In thatsense the experience felt like camping, but we were sleeping in a big tent!

　　After dinner at the hotel restaurant, we spent some time talking with ourguides. We were a bit surprised to find that they both think of Japannegatively, but like the U.S. It seems that Japan’s WWII behavior in China hasnot been forgotten, and is emphasized in school.

　　We saw a beautiful sunset and watched the sky become resplendent withthousands of stars, including the Milky Way galaxy. This was the clearest skythat we have seen in China. The fresh air at Mount Hua is a treat!

　　Our guides had both been planning to get up at 4:00 AM to watch thesunrise. Fran and I made sleep a priority. We did happen to wake up a bit beforesunrise (our room faced east) and went outside to watch the sky become rosy.Ironically, our guides missed the sunrise because they had stayed up latewatching the European soccer championships on the television in their room

　　The plan for the day was to climb the other four peaks, but we reserved theright to shorten the route. The first part was a steep climb to Middle Peak.After the low North Peak, all the others are at roughly 20__ meters. There werecrowds on the way to Middle Peak – mostly Chinese hikers but we did see a fewother wai guo (foreigners) as well.

　　We visited two Taoist temples en route to Middle Peak. Each one had analtar with incense and offerings of fruit. The friendly monks invited us to saya prayer or to send blessings to loved ones. Fran accepted their invitation. Atthe first temple, she lit incense sticks and knelt on a cushion in front of thealtar saying a silent prayer for our safe journey to the various summits ofMount Hua (the prayer was answered). At the second temple, she knelt on acushion in front of the altar and sent silent blessings to several friends whoare experiencing challenging situations in their lives at present. After eachblessing, she leaned forward and the monk struck a drum.

　　After Middle Peak, the crowds got much thinner. The next was East Peak,which had a steep ladder climbing rock. Fran was dubious about this ascent, butrealized that the ladder wasn’t so bad and went for it. That was a good decisionbecause we were then able to do a loop and the trails got almost empty at thispoint. After skirting the top of a cliff with a steep dropoff on both sides, wehad a pleasant walk to South Peak and West Peak. There was even a small amountof dirt trail! The summit of South Peak was the highest point on Mount Hua, soof course we asked another hiker to take a photo of our guides and us. The viewsfrom the tops of each peak were beautiful. Mount Hua and the surroundingmountains are very rugged and remind us somewhat of hiking in the southwesternUnited States or the Sierras.

　　We took a route that eventually brought us to the main line returning downfrom Middle to North Peak. We were happy to have ascended each of the five peaks(petals) of Flower Mountain.

　　By cable car (the longest in Asia), it was just 7 minutes down to the parkentrance. We caught a shuttle bus into town, then transferred to a bus forXian.

　　Our guides told us that we had walked up and down a total of 4000 stairs!We were glad that we did not have this information when we started. For threedays after returning home, our sore leg muscles instructed us to take theelevator to our fifth floor apartment rather than climbing the stairs.

　　Dear friends:

　　Mount Hua is located in the qinling mountain range, which lies in southernshaanxi province.

　　Mount Hua (hua means brilliant, chinese, or flowery; shan means mountain)is one of the five sacred taoist mountains in china. Mount Hua boasts a lot ofreligious sites: taoist temples, pavilions, and engraved scriptures arescattered over the mountain.

　　Mount Hua is well-known for its sheer cliffs and plunging ravines. it isknown as “the most precipitous mountain under heaven” and is probably the mostdangerous mountain in the world frequented by hikers.

　　Mount Hua is located 120 kilometers east of xi'an, about 3 hours from thecity centre. there are five peaks that make up the mountain: cloud terrace peak(north peak, 1613m)， jade maiden peak (middle peak, 2042m)， sunrise peak (eastpeak, 2100m)， lotus peak (west peak, 2038m) and landing wild goose peak (southpeak, 2160m). north peak, the lowest of the five, is the starting point. it hasthree ways up it: the six kilometer winding track from Mount Hua village, thecable car or the path beneath it.

　　next on the route is jade maiden peak. legend has it that a jade maiden wasonce seen riding a white horse among the mountains, hence the name. the hikerscan choose to take a left to sunrise peak, a fine place to enjoy the view of thesunrise in early morning (which would involve climbing the mountain in the darkas there is nowhere to stay on the mountain).

　　alternatively visitors could take a right to lotus peak. Mount Hua meansflower mountain, and it got the name from lotus peak, which resembles abeautifully blooming lotus flower. finally there is a gondola which taksvisitors acroa steep valley to landing wild goose peak, the highest among thefive summits. the path to the summit is characterized by steep rock faces, withobstacles including a foot-wide plank walkway fixed to a sheer rock face withonly a chain along the rock for support. the route continues with footholds inthe rock and a chain for holding. this is followed by a vertical ladder in acleft in the rock. finally there are steep stone steps. the south peak is notfor the faint of heart and is particularly dangerous in winter weather. however,the views are breathtaking. the climb to its summit makes it clear how theimpenetrable mountain repelled attackers over the centuries.

　　as early as the second century bce, there was a daoist temple known as theshrine of the western peak located at its base. daoists believed that in themountain lives a god of the underworld. the temple at the foot of the mountainwas often used for spirits mediums to contact the god and his underlings. unliketaishan,which became a popular place of pilgrimage, Mount Hua only receivedlocal pilgrms, and was not well known in much of the rest of china. Mount Huawas also an important place for immortality seekers, as powerful drugs werereputed to be found there. kou qianzhi (365-448)， the founder of the northerncelestial masters received revelations there, as did chen tuan (920-989)， wholived on the mountain prior to receiving immortality. in the 1230s, all thetemples on the mountain came under control of the daoist quanzhen school. in1998, the management committee of Mount Hua agreed to turn over most of themountain's temples to the china daoist association. this was done to helpprotect the environment, as the presence of monks and nuns deters poachers andloggers.

　　西岳華山是我國著名的五大山岳之一，位于華陰市城南，海撥2200 米，北瞰黃河，南依秦嶺，“遠而望之若花狀”(《水經(jīng)注》)，故有其名。又因其西臨少華山，古稱太華山。為國家級風景名勝區(qū)。這里有譽為關(guān)中八景之一的"華岳仙掌"。

　　華山以奇險峻秀而馳名天下，自山麓至絕頂，名勝古跡極多，廟宇道觀，亭臺樓閣，雕塑石刻隨處可見，險徑奇石，鬼斧神工，更有云海勁松，引人入勝。山頂有朝陽(東峰)、落雁(南峰)、蓮花(西峰)三峰，皆巋然筆立，直插云霄。三峰之下，有云臺(北峰)、玉女(中峰)諸峰環(huán)侍拱衛(wèi)，各具特色，顯得山勢雄偉，峰巒疊翠聳削。

　　北峰，亦稱云臺峰，是總轄四峰的沖要處所，山勢崢嶸，三面懸絕，只有一嶺南通，故險要異常。峰頂有真武宮，依山為屋，疊起層樓，隱映于蒼松翠柏之間，周圍山色如畫，絢麗多姿。

　　東峰，峰頂朝陽臺，、是華山觀日出的絕佳境地，故稱朝陽松林，東峰有甘露池、青虛洞、下棋亭、鷂子翻身等景點。據(jù)說宋太祖趙匡胤曾在這里和陳摶下棋，結(jié)果失敗，而將華山輸與陳摶。

　　南峰，又稱落雁峰，是華山的最高峰，海撥2200米。四周皆松林，雜以檜柏。迤邐數(shù)里，濃陰匝地。南峰上有明代建造的金天宮也稱白帝祠。峰頂有老君洞，相傳道家始祖老聃隱居于此。洞北有太上皇，泉水碧綠，東注澗下，今稱“仰天池”。東面崖下有石坊，稱“南天門”。坊外西出有長空棧道，通至賀老石屋。南峰上還有老子峰、煉丹爐八卦池等名勝古跡。

　　西峰，是華山最秀麗奇峻的山峰，因峰頂翠云宮前有蓮花石，形狀如蓮花。故稱蓮花峰。據(jù)傳說故事《寶蓮燈》中的三圣母之子沉香壁山救母之處就在西峰。翠云宮旁有一巨石中裂，形如斧劈，名斧劈石。石旁樹立一柄鑄鐵長把大斧。峰的西北面，筆立如削，空絕萬丈，人稱舍身崖。此外，還有西元洞和蓮花洞等古跡。

　　華山登山道路蜿蜓曲折，處處是懸崖絕壁，峭峰陡立，奇險異常。1985年修筑了12公里長的華山登山道，對其它險要處也設(shè)有鐵鏈護欄保護游人的安全，使登山者感到有驚無險。1994年沿當年人民解放軍智取華山道路又修筑了一條登山臺階路。1996年華山索道建成營運。“自古華山一條路”已成為歷史。山上山下，風景區(qū)內(nèi)，新建了旅游飯店、餐館、商店等旅游服務(wù)設(shè)施，可以滿足旅游者吃、住、行、游、購、娛等方面的需要。
