Ma'anling Crater is one of the best-preserved extinct volcano craters in the world, and it is famous among the geologists for being "the real volcano museum with considerable scale in China". It has a double cone shape. With the north and south peaks, it has a hollow in the middle. Seen from distance, it is like a saddle, hence the name. 30 isolated hills are scattered around it, and all of them are the result of the volcano eruption. The hills and the crater face each other at a distance, and make a wonderful scene with Ma'anling Crater at the center.
Only 222m above sea level, Ma'anling is the commanding point of Qiongshan City. Getting to the top of the hill, looking around, you will feel free and marvel at its vastness. Looking north, you can see the misty Qiongzhou Strait. Inside of the hills, ripe litchi and other fruits look so beautiful.
Touring Ma'anling Crater, you can taste special mutton too.
