Black Rock Peak

The Black Rock Peak , or Wushi Peak, is a hill located in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, People's Republic of China. It just faces to the of Zhejiang University.

Introduction


The peak has an altitude of only 125 meters, which is also relatively high in urban Hangzhou. Because the rocks on the hill are nearly black , so people gave such name to the hill. It's also called as the Camel Peak by some Hongzhou local elders, probably due to its shape.

On the huge rocks of the hill, people can see the panoramic West Lake, so it's also one of the ideal sites for viewing West Lake's whole landscapes .
The hill also has several historic sites including the Xiangjie .

Just down aside the hill , there's one of the most famous parks in Hangzhou - the Quyuan-Fenghe
