The Tomb of Yuan Jiasan is located 2.5 kilometers west of the county town, to the east of Xiaomenglou Village. The original burial site covered an area of 300 acres, with a spirit way nearly a mile long leading directly to the Zhoukou (口)–Shangqiu (丘) Highway, flanked by stone statues of figures and horses. It also featured inscribed stelae handwritten by notable figures such as Zeng Guofan, Zhang Zhidong, Li Hongzhang, Huashikui, and Xu Shichang. The tomb site was demolished in 1968.
