The Five Peaks recorded in Zhipu’s “Pan Shan Zhi” differ slightly from those listed in the “Imperially Commissioned Pan Shan Zhi.” Beyond the Five Peaks, there are numerous other summits; the Five Peaks are mentioned only as the most prominent. Guayue Peak: the principal peak of Pan Mountain, standing at an elevation of 864.4 meters. Its summit is sharp and its base steeply truncated, resembling a conical spire or a bamboo shoot thrusting skyward, reaching into the azure heavens and piercing the blue void—so striking that it seems fit to hang the moon, hence its name, Guayue Peak, also known as Zhongtai. Hong Sheng’s poem, “Ascending Guayue Peak and Sending It to Zhu Zhutuo, the Compiler”: “Each of the Five Peaks vies in splendor, yet Guayue alone reigns supreme. Gazing upward, the pagoda seems close to the heavens; looking down, the world below churns like a restless tide. This mountain stands as the eastern bulwark of the old Jiliao realm, the northern gateway to the Central Plains between mountains and sea. Alas, I wish I could take you far to gaze upon the scene, and, basking in the breeze, let out a long cry from the very roots of the clouds.”
