Jingjiang City, Jiangsu Province, is located on the north bank of the Yangtze River and is opposite to Jiangyin City. The terrain in Jingjiang is flat. Only one hill is more than 50 meters above sea level. It has become the highest peak of Jingjiang River and the first place where Jingjiang landed. The hill in Jingjiang is called Gushan. It was originally an isolated island in the sea. It landed about 7000-2.5 million years ago, with an elevation of only 55.6 meters. There is a Gushan Temple on the mountain. The most famous of the Lonely Mountain is the temple fair on March 3rd of the lunar calendar. The Lonely Mountain Temple Fair is one of the most grand temple fairs in Taizhou. It has been circulating for hundreds of years and is usually held for three days. The scene is very lively. The Gushan Temple Fair is the first batch of non-legacy projects in Jingjiang. During the period of the Lonely Mountain Temple Fair, the incense of the Gushan Temple was even stronger, and the tourists of the mountaineering were in constant stream. According to records, Gushan Temple was built in the Yuan Dynasty, earlier than Jingjiang County, but it has been destroyed in history. The Gushan Temple is now rebuilt in 1993. Climbing along the steps, the temples are stacked on top of the mountain. The temple is also a good place to enjoy the scenery. Under the mountain is a large farmland and scattered houses.
