Half of youth’s romance lives in books and stars; the other half lives in mountain breezes and open wilderness.

In the long days of study, you journey through mountains and rivers in words, measure the world through pages, and dream of the vast life beyond the classroom. Now, as midsummer arrives with cicada song and rising winds, the season of mountains and waters is at its best. Tianzhushan sets aside its usual quiet solemnity and, in its gentlest form, extends a special summer invitation to students across the country.

Let mountains and rivers be a gift to youth, and let cool breezes comfort every journey home.
The 2026 extended summer free-admission program is now officially open, allowing every young dream-chaser to visit the poetic landscapes of Anhui free of charge and discover a kind of freedom and passion that belongs only to youth among extraordinary peaks and seas of clouds.

From the three-foot podium come generations of students; with one expanse of mountains and waters, Tianzhushan pays tribute to teachers.
This summer, Tianzhushan is not only welcoming young people, but also honoring educators across the country with cool breezes and cloud-wrapped peaks.

This time, Tianzhushan is giving the beauty of summer mountains and waters to every young traveler — free of charge.

Youth should not miss the mountains and seas, and gratitude to teachers should not miss the beauty of the landscape.
The wild beauty of the mountains holds endless charm, and the world always offers a gentle road home.

We often encounter the grandeur of mountains and rivers in books, but nothing compares to the moment of seeing them with our own eyes.
This summer, there is no need to spend on admission and no need to travel far.
While the breeze is gentle and the season is just right, gather your classmates and close friends and set off for Tianzhushan.

Among extraordinary peaks and seas of clouds, witness the vastness of heaven and earth.
Within a thousand years of cultural heritage, discover the quiet depth of time.
