This picture shown on the right was taken during sunrise and therefore the sky is blue but the horizon is orange. If you examine the photo carefully, you can see a dot on the horizon. No, that is not a dirt on the camera sensor or the lenses; rather, that is a mountain piercing through the "sea of cloud," (see below) and thus Yellow Mountain is also called "Yellow sea."

The site shown in the two photos below is called "A line of heaven." The trail is so narrow that only a thin person can go through it. Don't worry about the rock between the gap. The probability that it falls on your head while you are hiking there is close to zero.
