The Jade Screen Tower stands against the 1,668 meter high Jade Screen Peak. Originally the seat of Manjusri Temple, it is now a tourist center with complete service facilities. Around the Tower are elephant and lion shaped rocks and ancient pines. In front of the Tower there emerges to the left the Celestial Capital Peak and Ploughing Cloud Peak. On Ploughing Cloud Peak there is a rock which looks likes a squirrel jumping to the Celestial Capital Peak. Below the peak is another odd shaped rock conjures up images of an immortal getting from a reclining chair.
To the right are Lotus Peak, Lotus Pistil Peak and Holy Spring Peak. Viewed from a distance, the rock on Lotus Pistil Peak looks like a small boat sailing through the ocean of clouds. Beside the peak there stands a rock that resembles a peacock playing in a lotus. Standing on the terrace in front of the pine, one is greeted by a panorama of numerous peaks and rocks half hidden in the clouds. The Jade Holds scenic area is a must see sight for anyone traveling to the yellow mountains.
