Jinfo Mountain was once an inconspicuous mountain in southwest China's Chongqing Municipality. After Chongqing opened a port in 1891, many foreigners came here, unveiling the plant kingdom in the area to the outside world.

This lush mountain is home to 4,768 native seed plant species, accounting for one-sixth of China's total. The abundant plants offer a paradise for diverse birds.
