Fish's Underwater World

Sunrise tour 5 July

We woke up bright and early to catch the bus sunrise tour at 4 am. All was still pitch dark. The morning was cool. Shivering in the cold. The guide brought us to the fuqi shu (couple tree) first.
The pre-dawn view of the place.

We were then driven to the sunrise viewing area. Apparently, the sunrise viewing spot will shift as the year goes by. The guide also explained to us the various peaks. Triangle peak, camel hump peak correspond to XXX. I could not remember. The peaks before sunrise. The peaks after sunrise. Photo pre sunrise. Photos after sunrise.
To watch the sunrise, go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2L7efenUTM8

View of the surrounding areas. The mysterious yunhai.
The next famous sight we were supposed to see was the monkeys called mi hou.

The monkeys were very smart. They knew that humans had food with them. So they would approach us. The driver sold us some dried fruits to feed the monkeys. Once we held out our hands, the monkeys would take the fruits. One female monkey sneaked up behind one guy and stole his breakfast. She then gave the bun to the monkey king. The monkey king knew how to peel the skin and eat the meat within.

Another yunhai view.
