Lianyungang (simplified Chinese: 连云港; traditional Chinese: 連雲港; pinyin: Liányúngǎng) is a prefecture-level city in northeastern Jiangsu province, China. It borders Yancheng to its southeast, Huai'an and Suqian to its south, Xuzhou to its southwest, and the province of Shandong to its north. Its name derives from Lian Island (formally Dongxilian Island) the largest island in Jiangsu Province which lies off its coastline, and Yuntai Mountain (Jiangsu), the highest peak in Jiangsu Province, a few miles from the town center, and the fact that it is a port.

The visit starts with a pleasant drive on a narrow winding road from the plains below. You drive past Buddhist Temples in good preservation dating from the arrival from India of the first monks. I suggest walking down hill through this area on the downhill return. Then eventually after about another 20 minutes you arrive near the top for parking and final 10 minute walk to the top with wonderful views and a clan of monkeys to keep your distance from. Worth maybe 30 minutes stay. Also it is possible for a day hike up the mountain but the services are limited. Our group went by tourist bus.
