Leipi Shan

If White Mountain is the largest and hardest, Leipi is probably the most popular (and crowded!) crag in Yangshuo. Right above the road, with a solid 15 seconds approach (one could probably belay from the parking lot), it punches way above its size with legendary routes like Tornado (line 13), Thunder (19) and Lightning (22).
