There are six unique species of azaleas on Jinfo Mountain. The mountain also boasts the “Rhododendron King” with an age of over 1,000 years, which has set a world record.

Thanks to the mountain’s unique landform, which rises over 2,000 meters above sea level and the multiple azalea varieties, the azalea trees at the foot of the mountain will bloom first before those at higher altitudes, which enables people to enjoy the blossom for two months.
