Xiexieshan Mountain is located in Xiexie Village, 5 kilometers southeast of Liancheng Town, Lianjiang City. Due to its extremely rare resources, Xiexieshan Mountain is both an ecological reserve and a mysterious tourist area. Tourists can appreciate the various wild lychee tree forms in the forest, climb the strange rocks on the top of the mountain, listen to the moving bird sounds and legends, and taste the sweet and sour wild fruits. It is a great experience to return to nature.
The origin of the name Xiexieshan Mountain is as follows: Yang Qin, a villager at the foot of the mountain, once served as a compiler in the Imperial Academy of the Ming Dynasty. When he resigned and returned to his hometown, Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty bestowed a pair of shoes on him. To remember the imperial grace, after Yang Qin returned to his hometown, he renamed the Lion Mountain behind his home as Xiexieshan Mountain, and the name has been passed down to this day. On the mountain, there is the site of Yang Qin’s reading place – the Hanlin stone chair. It is also said that most of the tribute lychees in the Han and Tang Dynasties were produced in Xiexieshan Mountain. The lychees eaten by Yang Guifei were hurriedly sent by special people and horses from Xiexieshan Mountain. It is truly a lychee mountain that reaches the sky.
