Chiang Kai-shek His grandfather Si Qian believed in Buddhism. After middle age, he devoted himself to practice. His mother also believed in Buddhism all her life and often went to Xuedou Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha, so Chiang Kai-shek often followed his mother. When the temple was rebuilt for the fifth time, Chiang Kai-shek inscribed the temple gate with the reputation of "the first mountain in Siming".

At that time, after the Xi'an Incident, Zhang Xueliang's first stop in prison was also in this snowy mountain. Zhang Xueliang’s residence is located halfway up the mountain and was once a Chinese travel agency. It has six rooms and a restaurant.

Now, it has been opened to the public, and pictures of General Zhang Xueliang's life and deeds are displayed in the room to commemorate it.
