Qing Dynasty The hill is carved with patterns on both sides, with a mountainous landscape featuring pines, rocks, cranes and deer on one side, and two Longevity Gods and herbal medicine gathering boys carved in relief against the background of hall towers, pavilions and palaces on the other side. On the hilltop, there's a band of reddish brown surface stretching from the other side, creating a fabulous scene with the rising sun from the east. |
