Qishan Wooden Memorial Archway

  The wooden memorial archway was originally located on East Main Street in the county town, spanning across the street. It had a stone base and wooden structure, featuring three stories. Towering and magnificent. In the third year of the Tongzhi reign during the Qing Dynasty, the Qing court ordered its construction to honor Liang Xingyuan, a native of the county and the then provincial governor of Hubei, who died in the line of duty when the Taiping Army captured Wuchang. Recognized for its significant artistic value, it was designated as a key cultural relic protection unit of Shaanxi Province in 1956. It was demolished during the Cultural Revolution.
