Inspirat per la mar de bambó e lo paisatge montalhan environant, lo lengatge de concepcion exprima l'aspiration e la reverència per la natura. Shanan es coma una ciutat ideala, isolada del mond dins las montanhas verdas, lo cant dels ausèls, l'air e la mar de nívols. A mièja-pendent de la montanha, 17 chambras d'ostes fan cara a la mar de bambó e las montanhas. Shanan se situa dins lo fons de la fòrça de bambó sus la linha Shenwang a Baofu Town, Anji. Coma l'abitacion la mai nauta d'aquesta montanha, possedís tot lo verd e las ondulacions de la montanha.
