The Teapot Mountain contains metal mines such as gold and copper. It was extensively mined in this area in the early days, leaving many traces of mining tunnels and handling railroads.
We saw the special scene of the blue-yellow sea under the mountain from the ruins of the cableway track that slides down the mountain.
There are three climbing stairs to the top of the teapot, and the silver-grass is swaying along the way, and the scenery is beautiful.
The teapot on the top of the mountain is made up of large golden stones. We tried to climb into the teapot and found that the pot could hold about 10 people at the same time. We climbed to the top of the pot and looked at the sea. The view was excellent.
On the way back, we passed the Guandi Temple in the foot of the mountain, and there is a huge Guan Gong statue, which symbolizes that the mountain is very peaceful and safe.
