Tomb Mountain

Located in the northern part of Mushi Village, Zouwu Town, it stands at an elevation of 233.4 meters. Stretching from Beishan of Fangbei in the east to Anyang Mountain in the west, it gets its name from the ancient Han Dynasty tombs on the mountain. The area features clusters of Han Dynasty tombs, Huanggu Tomb, and the ruins of the ancient Han XinYang City. On the back of Weizhuang’s Changyu Mountain lies a cave known as “Golden Ox Cave.” The middle and upper parts of Tomb Mountain are predominantly covered by cypress forests planted through afforestation efforts in the 1950s. Thanks to effective conservation measures, these cypress woods are thriving, with neat and uniform forest stands. Trees generally stand 10–15 meters tall with diameters of 15–20 cm at breast height. They are densely distributed across the central part of the mountain and often intermingle with bare rocks and boulders towards the mountaintop, forming a landscape where “clusters of green embrace the stones.” In areas with poor soil or along cliffs, unique sights such as “welcoming cypresses” and “bonsai-like cypresses” can be found. The deeper valleys of Tomb Mountain host mixed forests of black locust and walnut trees, creating a forest landscape with distinct seasonal changes. Black locust trees have graceful forms; in spring, their leaves are lush green and their blossoms snow-white, filling the air with fragrance; in summer, they offer dappled shade and a habitat teeming with birdsong; in autumn, their leaves turn golden and branches grow sturdy, lending the forest a serene depth; in winter, with snow weighing down the branches and wildlife taking shelter in hollows, the scenery takes on a uniquely tranquil beauty.
