Transportation

Yushan is a stop on the Zhe-Gan Railway, leading from Shanghai, Hangzhou to Nanchang and further south to Guangzhou and Hong Kong. At the end of 2002, the county was also incorporated into the national network of roads with the construction of a highway to Shanghai. Its closest airport is one in Quzhou, which flies to various domestic destinations.

Sights

Every year, tens of thousands of domestic and foreign tourists flock to Yushan's picturesque Mount Sanqing (三清山), which has been officially designated as a National Scenic Area.

Huaiyu Mountains are also a tourist attraction. In the Song dynasty, the great neo-Confucianist Zhu Xi taught there. In Republican times, the area also hosted a guerrilla affiliated to the Chinese Communist Party, led by then legendary general Fang Zhimin.
