Ji'an Heshan Scenic Area

　　  Heshan lies on the northwestern border of Yongxin and comprises 71 peaks, among which the highest, Qiu Mountain, rises to 1,391 meters above sea level, making it the tallest peak in the area. The mountaintop is characterized by grotesque rocks and cascading waterfalls. Historical figures such as Xu Xiake, Ouyang Xiu, Mei Yaochen, and Huang Tingjian all visited the mountain and left poetic writings. Yao Chong, a chancellor of the Tang Dynasty, once stayed here, and hence Yaoxiang Platform was built in his honor. On the stone cliffs are engraved the two characters “龙溪” (Dragon Stream), believed to be the handwriting of Yan Zhenqing, a renowned calligrapher of the Tang Dynasty. Additionally, Niu Sengru, a chancellor of the Tang Dynasty, and Liu Hang, a chancellor of the Song Dynasty, both studied at Ganlu Temple on this mountain.
