The Xiaogushan Human Relics Site is a cultural tourism attraction.

Also known as "Fairy Cave." Located 45 kilometers southeast of Haicheng, Anshan, it is a natural stone cave. The cave entrance is spacious, measuring 4.9 meters in width and 22.5 meters in depth. Above the cave entrance are carved the characters "Wang Dong," which are believed to have been erected during the Wanli era of the Ming Dynasty. Excavations in the cave have uncovered cultural relics and artifacts from the late Paleolithic and Neolithic periods, dating back approximately 40,000 to 10,000 years. These findings are similar to the culture of the Upper Cave people at Zhoukoudian, Beijing, and help fill the gap in Paleolithic cultural records in the Anshan area.
