Kuishan · Feixiong Pagoda

Kuishan · Feixiong Pagoda
     Kuishan is located about one kilometer south of Maolin Town in Jing County. The mountain rises abruptly from the ground, standing alone with a single peak that is round like an ancient bell, outstanding in its beauty and majesty.

       At the top of Kuishan stands the three-story hexagonal brick Feixiong Pagoda, with upturned eaves and ridges that exude an ancient charm. The inner core of the pagoda is hollow and contains a staircase that leads all the way up to the third floor. The pagoda was funded and built in the 38th year of the Qianlong reign (1773) by Wu Yanshan, a county-level imperial examination candidate, and was named Feixiong. After the founding of the People’s Republic of China, the government constructed a Revolutionary Martyrs’ Cemetery on Kuishan, turning it into a memorial park. The remains of Xun Huazhou, a Red Army general, are buried here. It also houses the epitaph for Xun Huazhou, written in May 1938 by Comrade Chen Yi when he led his troops through Maolin on their way east to fight in the War of Resistance against Japan. This stele is a national first-class protected cultural relic. In addition, the cemetery also holds the remains of revolutionary martyrs who bravely sacrificed their lives during the “Southern Anhui Incident” and the Liberation War. The cemetery is shaded by tall, verdant pines and enjoys a tranquil environment, inspiring deep reverence.
