Longding Mountain
Longding Mountain is a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, and a sea of pines. It is filled with magical stories everywhere. Longding Mountain has two main peaks running north to south, which are far apart. Between the two main peaks, there are hundreds of acres of open and flat grasslands. Currently, the Longding Mountain scenic area has a 15-li long ring road around the mountain, as well as facilities such as a small conference hall and entertainment venues. In the mountain, there is a 'Zhonggu Tower' with an ancient bell hanging inside. The highest peak of Longding Mountain has an octagonal double-eaved pavilion. Climbing up the steps, you can overlook the city of Liaoyang from the pavilion. Longding Mountain is the site of an ancient beacon tower. Based on this, a 260-meter-long section of the ancient Great Wall and a beacon tower have been restored. At the foot of Longding Mountain, a dam has been built to intercept water, forming an artificial lake called 'Dongshan Lake'. Fish fry are stocked in the lake, providing visitors with the opportunity to fish.
During the early Qing Dynasty, in the era of the founding emperor of Liaoning and Shenyang, the Dongjing Mausoleum was once the ancestral mausoleum of the royal family and held significant importance in the history of the Qing Dynasty's development. After Nurhaci moved the capital to Liaoyang, in the ninth year of the Tianming era of Later Jin (1624), he relocated the tombs of his grandfather, brothers, sons, and more than ten others from Hetu Ala to Yanglu Mountain, located 4 li northeast of Dongjing City, establishing the 'Dongjing Mausoleum' in the ninth year of the Tianming era of Later Jin (1624). In the eleventh year of the Shunzhi era of the Qing Dynasty (1654), the tombs of Nurhaci's grandfather's generation were moved back to their original location in Hetu Ala City, Qing Yongling. Currently, there are four tombs in the Dongjing Mausoleum of Nurhaci's brother Shulhazi, his eldest son Cuyen, his concubine's brother Murhazi, and his son Dalcha. The mausoleum contains stone walls, a mountain gate, and a stele pavilion. The stone pavilion is well-preserved, built in front of Shulhazi's tomb, featuring a single-eaved hip-and-gable roof with four arches. The interior is decorated with caisson ceilings, and the pavilion houses a marble stele inscribed with 'Zhuang Darhan General Tulu Prince Stele' in both Chinese and Manchu scripts, with clear inscriptions and exquisite carvings.
