Taimushan situates in the northeast part of Ningde UNESCO Global Geopark, integrating landscapes of mountain, sea, stream, island, temple, camp, town and fortress. Thus, it enjoys a fair name “fairymetropolis at sea” and “grand sight of mountain and sea”.
The peak cluster consists of stony peaks, fortress, walls and pillar sand stony eggs in different poses and with different expressions, together making up a gorgeous and colorful painting, which arranged in a proper distribution with uneven density. The accompanying landscapes of fissure valley, lane valley, canyon and cave are distinctive too.
There are beautiful bay, broad sea area and peculiar island inside the scenic area.
Ancient temples and pagodas built over the ages, the unique scenery of She minority buildings, all contribute to the colorful cultural landscape.
Jiulichaotian (Nine Carps Facing Sky) peak cluster: The cluster consists of nine tall straight peaks and pillars, vividly like nine jumping carps, and hence named “Nine Carps Facing Sky”.
The Dayushan Island: the island is one of the top ten most beautiful islands in China and also the biggest island in northeast of Fujian Province. The island covers an area of 21.5km2. The summit of the island is 541.4m above sea level. Therefore, it is the highest island in Fujian. Lakes and a vast pasture lie in the centre of the island. These make the island a peculiar landscape in southern China.
The Dayuandang Beach: the Beach is 1,220m long and 100-400m wide. The sands contain potash feldspars grains and thus are seen to be ingolden colour under the sunshine. This forms a wonderful scenery that integrates golden sands with bluish waves.
