Out of the many attractions in town, the Lotus Hill in Guangzhou grabs most of the attention of not only tourists but also locals. It is a mountain located in the vicinity of the Pearl River Delta. Lotus Hill, also known as the Lianhua Mountain, has a mesmerizing landscape.
Lotus Hill itself has four other attractions. They are the Lotus Tower scenic spot, the Lotus City, the Quan Yin Fairy Land and the stone landscape. The Stone landscape is an ancient site where there are cliffs, rocks, and caves. The Swallow Rock, Eagle Cliff and the Lion Stone are some of the visual beauties one must not miss while visiting the Stone Landscape.
The Lotus Tower is supposed to have built during the Ming Dynasty. It is also called the Wen Chang Tower. A look from the top of this stunning tower is truly rewarding as it offers picturesque vistas of the surrounding area including the beautiful Zhujiang River. The Lotus City is as important as the rest. The remaining area is supposed to be a part of the Lotus City. It was built during the Qing Dynasty, and the statue of the Goddess of Mercy (Quan Yin) is one of the top highlights of Lotus Hill.
