Development history

Zhangshan, east of heaven, west of Huangshan. According to the county annals, it was called santianzidu, sanwangshan and Zhangfeng in ancient times. In the spring and Autumn period, Wu and Yue took this as the boundary, and the single giant stone Baizhangyan was a natural boundary monument.

In the Qin Dynasty, a "barrier county" was established, named after the mountain. The word "barrier" also comes from this.

According to Xiangfu Jing, Emperor Xuanyuan and Rong Chengzi, together with Duke Fuqiu, collected herbs and made pills here. It is the original base of traditional Chinese medicine in China. Among the existing "danfang" scenic spots, there are also fossils of ancient utensils such as danguo, Danzao, yaoyan and Danshao.

Today, there are still "emperor's tomb", "prime minister's tomb", "emperor's tomb mountain" and "emperor's Tomb Village" in the mountain. This is the deep accumulation of ancient history. Who is the emperor in the tomb? The Prime Minister of the tomb is a mystery worth exploring. Many scholars wrote a lot of poems after exploring the barrier mountains.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, SHU Kai, a bachelor, wrote the travel notes of Dazhang mountain, which recorded the unique landscape and magnificent scenery of the mountain. The development and construction of the Grand Canyon of the mountain was based on SHU Kai's travel notes, which was hundreds of years earlier than Xu Xiake's travel notes of Huangshan.
