Shibaoshan means treasure mountain. Shibaoshan lies in the southwest part of Jianchuan County - Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture, 28 km away from down town. It is famous for its dense forests, sea of flowers, strange and mystical stone and rocks. Among the natural sceneries, you can see several huge groups of stone caves and temples built on the rocks in the Tang Dynasty (1,000 years ago). These have been regarded as "the cultural and religious treasure of southwest China".BBBwww.Chinakindnesstour.com
