Located in the east of Zhejiang and spanning across five districts, including Yuyao, Haishu, Fenghua, Shengzhou, and Shangyu, the Siming Mountain is known as "the green lung of eastern Zhejiang" for its superior environment. Lush ancient trees, numerous lakes, and many rocks of extraordinary shape are found in the Mountain, together with various kinds of birds and beasts.
Throughout history, many scholars and poets were attracted to Siming, who, becoming very excited by the splendid mountain and river landscape, chose to wrote poems to express their feelings. For example, to name a few, Li Bai, Liu Changqing, and Pi Rixiu, all famous poets in the Tang Dynasty, once sang indulgently for the beauty of the scenery here, leaving us with great poetry.
Siming Mountain is not only a cultural and tourism attraction, but also a revolutionary base. During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation, Siming Mountain witnessed China's revolutionary cause. The revolutionary martyrs fought dauntlessly to win final victory. Today, people constantly come to visit the former sites of the Anti-Japanese-aggression Base in Hengkantou Village, Liangnong Town, Yuyao (Siming Mountain), to commemorate and learn the history of the martyrs. They are also inspired by the heroic stories of the martyrs.
