Xiandong Ping Chessboard Rock Introduction

The Chessboard Rock is a natural wonder filled with mysterious legends, located in Fusheng Village, Zhongliao Township. The enormous rocks here are naturally divided, resembling perfectly square blocks of tofu, which is truly astonishing. It is said that immortals once played chess here; the rock is a massive boulder that has cracked naturally, creating a chessboard-like landscape surrounded by mountains, with this being a flat valley area. Between the rock crevices, lush green grass grows, reminiscent of the green borders of a chessboard, making it a remarkable sight. The Chessboard Rock is situated in a rectangular flat valley squeezed between two mountain ranges, with a gentle stream flowing through, bringing a sense of coolness. The fine cracks between the rocks are lush with grass, neatly arranged like the green boundaries on a chessboard, adding an endless touch of vibrant greenery to this extraordinary scenery.
