- The area is the Shennungchia in Hupeh province, the mountainous region with the highest peak in central China, Patungya, reaching 10,000 feet. It is called the "natural botanical garden" and is on a watershed separating the Yangtse and Hanshui rivers, where the waters race through deep ravines quickly descending by hundreds of waterfalls, very picturesque and beautiful. As expected it has plentiful rainfall; however, the climate is cold and humid and, in fact the hilltops are often covered in mist.]
