Most Frequently Asked Questions from our Clients
Mt. Siguniang range consisting of four adjacent mountains from north to south stands side by side and stretches around 3-5 miles. The four mountains measure 6250m, 5355m, 5279m and 5038m respectively. Because of the constant snowfall on the summit of four mountains, Mt. Siguniang looks like four young ladies who are covered by a long strip of white veil, standing between Changping valley and Haizi valley that resemble two galaxies. The highest and most stunning snow-capped mountain of Mt. Siguninag is known as “Mt. Yaomei, which literally means 'peak of the youngest sister'. Its awe-inspiring summit and breathtaking scenery make it a popular destination for mountaineers and tourists of all kinds.
