Within the great lands of China are many mountains filled with history. Some are connected with ancient poets and others, such as Liupan Mountain in Ningxia Hui autonomous region, with contemporary Chinese history.
Mao Zedong once wrote a poem on Liupan Mountain to celebrate the success of the Long March.
Today, the mountain still shines with silent beauty in Northwest China.
The national forest park located on the mountain is rich in natural resources, including precious herbs used in traditional Chinese medicine and many wild animals.
