Nanyang Dushan Mountain forest park

Nanyang Dushan Mountain forest park, in the northeast of Nanyang city, is 3 km away from the city center. Buses arrive at the foot of the mountain directly. Its altitude is 368 meters, with 98 percent of forest coverage. Since it is surrounded by rivers and mountains, it is praised as Nanyang's green jade and the back garden of Nanyang.

Dushan abounds in natural resources. Du jade is one of the four most famous jades in China, with reserves of over 200,000 tons. Dushan Maofeng tea tastes good and has a lovely fragrance. Dushan natural mineral water, which was examined by related authorities in 1988, contains amounts of microelements such as silicic acid, zinc and strontium.
