There used to be a temple on the mountain peak, which was burned down by the Japanese during the War of Resistance. Later, a benefactor from Nanjing raised funds to build a “Baiyun Nunnery” on the original site, which was demolished in 1958.
Jiashan remains lush and green all year round, covered with dense pine trees, and there are more than ten paths leading to the summit. On both sides of the mountaintop are scenic viewpoints, where visitors can watch the sunrise or enjoy a panoramic view of the city. Every morning, climbers come in an endless stream, and their laughter wakes up the sleeping mountain.
