Also known as Lengjia mountain. There is Lengjia temple at the foot of the mountain and Lengjia tower at the top of the mountain. Among the towers in Suzhou, this tower ranks second only to Yunyan temple tower in Huqiu. From the perspective of mountaineering, you can have a panoramic view of the beautiful mountains and waters in Shihu. The lake is bright and green, and the Hengshan Mountains are emerald. "The mountains are deep, the forests are secluded, and the flowers and fruits are luxuriant." it condenses the pastoral beauty of Jiangnan and makes you relaxed and happy.

Shihu lake is 4.5 km long from north to South and 2 km wide from east to west. It is surrounded by 10 km and covers an area of 3.6 square kilometers. More and more streams pass through the lake, connecting Taihu Lake in the South and Xujiang River in the north, and flowing into the urban area of Suzhou. Yuecheng bridge and Xingchun bridge form a dike bridge of 80-90 feet. To the north of the dike bridge, there is a magnificent "Wuzhong Shengjing" archway, the amount of which is written by Gu Tinglong, a contemporary calligrapher. The Stone Lake and Shangfangshan are in perfect harmony. The scenery is picturesque, especially the pagoda on the top of the mountain. After Yuan Hongdao visited Fangshan in the Ming Dynasty, he compared it with Huqiu mountain. He thought that "Huqiu is like a lady's make-up, covering the curtain foil, and the top is like a brown Taoist, which is rich and beautiful." Fan Cheng of the Southern Song Dynasty went back to the Stone Lake, and he also thought that he would not go to the Stone Lake if he visited Wu It is the same as the custom of Suzhou to visit the Stone Lake on the 18th day of the eighth lunar month. The so-called string of moons refers to the appearance of moonlight, which is facing the hole of Xingchun bridge, "a ring of January". This is a spectacle under specific time, place and environmental conditions, which is not easy to see at ordinary times.
