The Legend in Najiabawa Scenic Zone

There widely spread many legends with regard to the Nanjiabawa Peak. The topless peak is said to be the place where the immortals meet and banquet. The locals believe that it is a passage for the human being to the heaven and thus show great respects for this peak. The modern scientific research tells us that this peak lies in a place where many geological structures meet and overlap.

A well-known legend goes like this. Once upon a time, the God asked Nanjiabawa and Jialabailei (two brothers) to practice martial arts. Thanks to his hard work and great talents, the younger brother made rapid progress and grew higher and higher, which aroused the jealousy of he elder brother Nanjiabawa. He murdered the younger brother in a windy night with bright moonlight and threw his head in Milin, which became the Dela Moutain later. To penalize him God made Nanjiabawa a mountain too on the bank of the Yaluzhangbu River as a permanent company for his murdered brother. This legend well explains the characteristics of these two mountains in a sense that due to its round top Jialabailei looks like a headless body. Permanently crowned with mists and clouds, Nanjiabawa on the other hand resembles a guilty man who is unwilling to show others his real face. There are numerous other tales about Nanjiabawa. The locals show special awes and admirations for Nanjiabawa in a hope to ascend to the heaven afterlife via the peak.
