Civilopedia entry[]
Many traditional Chinese paintings depict a strange landscape: pillars of vertical rock covered with hanging greenery and rising into the sky. The scene looks utterly fanciful, but only to those who have not seen the forests around Zhangjiajie, in the Hunan region of China. These sandstone cliffs with precarious peaks towering amid lush greenery are not the windswept orange pillars of the American Southwest, nor the jagged karst of Southeast Asia, but rather blocks that have remained standing in a constant cycle of frost, thaw, and the gnaw of tree roots. As natural forces break and split the rocks, only the hardest areas of the mountain remain. The rock formations have proved a consistent inspiration to Chinese artists and poets, and the area was enshrined as a national park by the People’s Republic of China in 1982.
Trivia[]
- Zhangjiajie’s wonder quote comes from the poem Green Mountain, written by Tang dynasty poet Lǐ Bái, acclaimed as one of the greatest and most important poets in Chinese history.
