During the broadcast, the anchors introduced many famous tourist attractions and historical sites such as the Nanyan palace on the Wudang Mountain to audiences. Nanyan palace is a perfect combination of nature and culture on the Wudang Mountain. People build palaces, pavilions, and halls according to the unique structure (cliffs, caves, and other dangerous places). It is really amazing.
