Heze Jinshan Grand Cave

　　       Jinshan, “named after gold discovered in the rocks,” is located 23 kilometers southeast of Juye County. It lies to the south against Yuliang Mountain (Red Earth Mountain), with Gaoping Mountain to the east, Baima Mountain to the north, and plains to the west. The mountain stretches 1.5 kilometers from north to south and 1 kilometer from east to west, with an elevation of 133 meters.
　　       The mountain originally had over 20 ancient structures. In the 40th year of the Kangxi reign during the Qing Dynasty, large-scale construction was carried out, “all modeled after Mount Tai,” to rebuild Jinshan. That is, the architectural layout was designed based on that of Mount Tai, including structures such as the Little Red Gate, Mid-Heaven Gate, Little Heavenly Street, South Heaven Gate, Queen Mother’s Pavilion, Bixia Yuanjun Palace, Three Saints Hall, Wenchang Pavilion, Shennong Shrine, Gengji Pavilion, Ox King Temple, as well as the Earth God Temple, Ying Pavilion, Kuixing Tower, and Theater Stage. In recent years, additional attractions such as the Jade Rabbit Cave, Child-Praying Cave, and Golden Ox Cave have been developed.
