Mount Sanqing (Chinese: 三清山; pinyin: Sānqīng Shān) is a renowned Taoist sacred mountain located 25 miles (40 km) north of Yushan County in Jiangxi Province China with outstanding scenery. Sanqing means the Three Pure Ones in Chinese as Mount Sanqing is made up of three main summits: Yujing Yushui and Yuhua representing the Taoist trinity.A Chinese phrase “三峰峻拔、如三清列坐其巅” (“Three steep peaks like the Three Pure Ones sit the summits”) explains why it was named San Qing.
