Standing at the mountain tops, the surrounding mountain ranges rise and fall on the foot, as of waves, which form a magnificent sweep of several thousand kilometers. The southwest of the mountain is the stream tributary to Baisha River.

Daba Mountain area had the feature of many raindrops at night. After the rain at night, it was dear and sunny, with the fresh warmth of a full-summer day; the flowers were blossoming profusely and the grass was richly green. There were no clouds in the high sky. If you climbed up to the mountain top even it is not yet the time of daybreak, you would catch sight of the magnificent spectacle of the dawn dispersing the night.
The first light of day shatters the dark stage backdrop, and the night would instantly quit from both directions. At this time, people will be surprised to find that they're not standing on the top of the mountain yet wandering unconcernedly about the sea of the clouds.
The boundless expanse of the sea of clouds is like the rolling waves, which are dashing down to the earth. And you would experience the enjoyment of flying up to the cloud regions. The mountain top shows the sea of the clouds, as of the fairy palace in the green field. All the while, a red sun is rising slowly at the end of the sea of the clouds, which is so bright that it dazzles the eye.
