Lotus Peak, the main peak, is a small peak rising from the South China Sea coast, which is composed of a large number of petal-shaped vertically cracked granite. Looking from a distance on land, it looks like a lotus in bud; Overlooking the sea, it looks like a blooming lotus. In A.D. 1278, Wen Tianxiang dispatched troops, and the diligent king climbed the peak to find the emperor's boat, so he named and carved the stone as "Lotus Peak". Since the Song Dynasty, Lotus Peak has become the legacy of scholars and scholars in previous dynasties.
