莲花山景区

用峰峦叠嶂来信任莲花山的全貌是再恰当不过了，传说吴国孙权的爱将周瑜指挥军队在此操练过，据说里面的元明塔非常有名，被誉为江南第一塔

Lotus mountain is the English name for this place. It is an interesting place to visit that is close to Huanggang - just across the river. At the entrance, the is a 9 dragon statue. Inside there is a 13 story tower that you can climb as well as various shrines and temples. It does have a sad little zoo consisting of a monkey house and two peacocks. The cost is very reasonable - normally 25 yuan to enter. The day I visited, there was a special for only 19 yuan. There are numerous things to see here and if you are in the area, it is worth spending a few hours wandering about.
