徐霞客
Ninghai is known for its mountainous landscape. One of the mountains, called Wangai (), stands close to Tiantai Mount. It was there that Xu Xiake () started his travel to Tiantai Mount. From its flanks, one enjoys a full view of the Zhejiang Grand Canyon () and of the Baixi Reservoir (). The local peach is a delicate and well appreciated local specialty.
