Introduction to attractions
The landmarks of Fuzhou are three mountains and two towers. The three mountains are Yushan, Pingshan and Wushan, and Wushan is the highest among the three mountains. Wushan has been a tourist attraction since the Tang Dynasty. The Daoshan in "Daoshan Pavilion" written by Zeng Gong, one of the "Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties", refers to Wushan.
It is said to be Wushan, but it is actually a citizen’s park. It is lined with shady trees, winding paths, and has many kinds of plants. It is close to Three Lanes and Seven Alleys, so it is very suitable for those who are tired from walking around Three Lanes and Seven Alleys. Take a break here. If you come here specifically to see the Three Mountains and Two Towers, you can take the bus to Wushan Station and get off directly to see the Wushan Scenic Area. It is only a 20-minute walk from Wushan to Yushan, so you can visit together.

There are signs along the way, so it is not difficult to find. You can view Fuzhou City and May Day Square from the mountain. There is nothing more relaxing than sitting on the Wushan promenade to enjoy the cool air in summer.
Perhaps the most worth seeing in Wushan are the more than 200 cliff stone carvings left by the ancients. The seal script, official script, regular script, running script and cursive script are all excellent. The area around Daoshan Pavilion and Li Gong Pavilion is the best place to enjoy the scenery of the whole mountain. It is also the place where the most concentrated cliff carvings are located. The most famous of the cliff carvings is the seal script "Prajna Terrace" written by Li Yangbing, a calligrapher of the Tang Dynasty. It is the oldest existing stone carving in Fuzhou and is one of a kind.
Another attraction not to be missed in Wushan is the Wuta. It is one of the two pagodas in the "Three Mountains and Two Pagodas". It is located at the eastern foot of Wushan, far opposite the White Pagoda in Yushan. The tower body is made of granite, and its appearance is slightly black due to its age, echoing its name. Many people take pictures here.
In addition, there are many commemorative ancestral halls built in the past dynasties on Wushan Mountain, such as the Zhuzi Temple to commemorate Zhu Xi of the Song Dynasty, the Jiuxian Temple to commemorate nine famous scholars in Fujian Province, and the Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou, the famous anti-Japanese generals of the Ming Dynasty. Yu Ergong Temple, etc.
