The highest point in Qian Shan is 708 meters. It has 999 peaks looking like lotuses looking up to the skies and thus the name Qian which means thousand peaks and shan means mountain. The tallest hill in Singapore where I was born was Bukit Timah which is 163m high (bukit is hill in Malay). The first time I saw real mountains in my life when I was in Malaysia in the 1980s. Therefore seeing so many mountain ranges, like Qian Shan in China, over the ten years I was there have always been an amazing experience.
