China's mysterious jungle

China has many, many attractions - some of which are overcommercialized.  But there is one place largely unknown to the outside world know for its bizarre beauty and mystique: the Mt. Sanqingshan National Park.

Peppered with extraordinary granite geology, these formations of weird outcrops and pillars can appear like human or animal silhouettes to the discerning eye.  In fact, it is recognized as UNESCO World Heritage Site. With its bright halos and white rainbows, you'll actually feel that you're on a different planet.
