** Chicheng Mountain

The mountain is reddish brown resembling great castles, which is a very unique feature among the surrounding green mountains known as the symbol and south gate of Tiantai Mountain. At dawn and dusk, white clouds gather at tree tops and the pagoda is tinged with a red glow; hence, it is called "Chicheng Dawn and Dusk Glow" -- one of the eight great scenic spots at Tiantai Mountain. There are 18 types of cave shapes, including the Temple of Monk Jigong, Eastern Zhejiang No 1 Monastery "Ziyun Cave," Taoism No 6 Cave "Yujing Cave," etc, which are known as holy places for both Buddhists and Taoists.

It is an ideal place for recuperation and tourism, especially during summertime.
