The scenic spots on the mountain are mainly Taoist relics built in the Republic of China, among which the Sanqing Pavilion at the top of the mountain is all made of stone, and there are 43 white marble Buddha statues and a rare Pangu statue in the six-story pavilion.

According to legend, Shun divided the whole country into twelve states, and each state named a mountain as a town. Lushan was the town mountain of Youzhou at that time. Since then, the dynasty has paid more attention to Lushan. Qu Yuan once wrote that "the morning begins with Taiyi Xi, and the evening begins with Wei Lu" to express his yearning for Mount Lu.
in the sui dynasty, Lushan was named as the "northern town" of the five major towns and mountains, along with Yishan in Shandong as the "eastern town", Wu Shan in Shaanxi as the "western town", Huiji Mountain in Zhejiang as the "southern town" and Huoshan in Shanxi as the "middle town", making it a famous mountain with the same reputation as the "Five Mountains". When emperors ascended the throne in Ming and Qing dynasties, they often went to Beizhen Temple at the foot of the mountain to offer sacrifices to mountain gods, leaving many pavilions, temples and cliff inscriptions.
Although the fame of Mount Lu is no longer loud, it is still a place to seek seclusion and win. The mountain is not high, and it can be visited in about 4 hours' walk. On the way, stones of different shapes and lush pine trees echo the remains of temples in previous dynasties. Every spring, pear blossoms are in full bloom, white, and the most beautiful.
