Which mountain has the highest altitude in Nanjing?
1. The highest mountain in Nanjing is Purple Mountain, also known as Zhongshan. In the eastern suburbs of Nanjing, "the tiger and the dragon are better now than in the past." The dragon and the pan mean that Purple Mountain is illuminated by the sun. Purple-gold light often appears on the top of the mountain, which is why the mountain is named. The mountain is not very tall. The highest peak, Beifeng Peak, is 468 meters above sea level, but it is the number one mountain in Nanjing.
