High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Mount Li is a mountain located 25 kilometers northwest of Xi'an in Shaanxi Province, China. The mountain is part of the Qingling mountain range and rises to a height of 1302 metres above sea level. It is one of the eight scenic spots of the Guanzhong Plain and popularly said to shine like a beacon in the evening sunlight. Some ancient tales say that the literal Chinese name Black Steed Mountain stems from its resemblance to a horse whilst others that the name arose during the Shang and Zhou Dynasties because people of the Lirong literally Black Steed Tribe, lived in this area. Another legend cites the mountain as the place from where the goddess Nuwa, creator of mankind, repaired the wall of heaven. Mount Li is also said to be the location where King You of Zhou and his stepson Bofu met their deaths at the hands of Quanrong nomads in 771 BCE.
