Pictures: Huangshan Pine Trees

Pine tree is one of the "Four wonders" at Huangshan mountain. You'll see many pine trees growing on mountain sides and rocks with little visible soil. They commonly grow on the alpine peaks which are about 800-1,800 meters above the sea level. They are a famous tree species in botany. They are sturdy. Tortuous branches twist together. The gesture is very beautiful and odd. Many trees are given colorful names to reflect its unique shapes such as dragon claw pine tree and black tiger pine tree.
