Lushan Forest Farm

  Situated between the mountain ranges of Lücun and Liangcheng in Liangcheng Township, it borders Xiangbi Mountain to the south, Beihuangshan Pass to the north, Miaoshan to the west, and Jiwuo Mountain to the east. It stretches 6 kilometers from north to south and 2 kilometers from east to west, covering a total area of 7,016 mu. The farm was established in August 1960 on the basis of a county-run orchard. In its early days, it had 15 staff members (including 5 cadres and 10 workers), 35 buildings, and total fixed assets worth 30,000 yuan.

    In 1963, the planting of Cupressus funebris and Robinia pseudoacacia protective forests began. From 1964 to 1972, the annual afforestation area consistently exceeded 500 mu (with over 1,000 mu planted in both 1966 and 1967). To meet the needs of afforestation during the twentieth century, a permanent nursery of 15 mu was established for self-propagated seedlings. Entering the 1980s, over 100 mu of economic forests were further developed (including 40 mu of orchards). In 1983, a forestry resources survey found that Lushan Forest Farm had 1.2 million trees of various species including Cupressus funebris and Robinia pseudoacacia, with a total timber volume of 11,000 cubic meters.

  In 1990, Lushan Forest Farm was divided into two forest zones and three forest patrol stations, with 10 rangers assigned to manage and protect each area under contract. The entire forest farm enjoys a tranquil environment and fresh air, making it an ideal destination for tourism and leisure.
