Located in the eastern suburbs of Fuzhou, about eight kilometers (4.97 miles) from the city center, Gushan Mountain is one of the most famous scenic areas in the city. It was named after a huge rock on the summit which resembles a drum and sounds like a drum in the wind or rain.

Measuring 925 meters high, the mountain has more than 100 scenic spots, including pavilions, temples, caves and peaks. The most impressive feature is the 300 inscriptions on the cliff face left by literati in ancient times, including 109 from the Song Dynasty (960-1279).

Admission: 40 yuan (US$6.53) / person
