Wulashan is a battleground for military strategists in past dynasties. It was called Yangshan in Qin and Han Dynasties, Bana Mountain in Northern Wei Dynasty, Muna Mountain in Sui and Tang Dynasties, Wula Mountain in Song, Liao and Jin Dynasties, and Muna Mountain in Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. Since the Qing Dynasty, it has been a nomadic place in Urad, Mongolia. Standing on the bank of the Yellow River and looking north, the appearance of Wulashan seems unremarkable. However, when you are deep in the mountains, you suddenly feel that you are in a fairyland. Dahuabei is a famous scenic spot in Wula Mountain, where the mountains are steep, the ancient trees are towering, the streams are gurgling, the mountain flowers are blooming, the green grass is lush, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. It is named after the huge and dense birch forest on the mountain.

Climbing behind Dahua Department, you can enter the mountain from West Ubulang and hover along the mountain road. The first dangerous place to enter the mountain is Daying Bay, where there are towering old trees, lush flowers and plants, winding paths and deep canyons. Looking up, the top of the mountain is covered with white clouds, and the cliffs on both sides stab the sky; Bluestone stands tall in the mountains, towering dozens of feet. The spring water under the cliff gurgled, crisp and pleasant. At first glance, the blue waves are undulating, Lin Tao is rolling, and there are many Gu Song cypresses growing between the cliffs, with branches sticking out obliquely and pointing to the blue sky; The crown is huge, the branches are lingering, and the new branches are green. Eagles often perch on ancient tree heads or cliffs in Daying Bay. At ordinary times, they shrug their wings and shrink their necks, as quiet as gray-black rocks. Once they suddenly fly, their fierce and vigorous posture and harsh screams are quite impressive.

After crossing Eagle Bay, we arrived at Shihu Lake. At the bottom of the ravine, all are natural secondary forests. The branches of jujube trees in late autumn are covered with fruits, red, fat and green, which are particularly eye-catching. After crossing the Shihu Lake, the mountain is getting steeper and steeper. It also crossed the loess cliff and the black earth dam to Great North China. The scenery along the way is like a natural park: the stream twists and turns; The mountains are green and the birch forest is like smoke; The water plants are abundant and the flowers are overflowing; Rare birds and animals, flying around; Wild fruit on the branches, nodding.

Climbing the main peak of Great North China feels vast and relaxed. At first glance: the nine yellow rivers are like ribbons, drifting away; Wuliangsuhai is like jade, looming; An Chuan in Ming Dynasty is a fertile land with criss-crossing buildings.

There are dense natural forests and many wild animals in Wula Mountain. The main tree species are birch, Populus davidiana, Pinus tabulaeformis, larch, cypress and elm. There are shrubs and hundreds of medicinal materials in the mountains. Animals mainly include leopards, wolves, deer, green sheep, argali, roe deer, foxes, rabbits, badgers and squirrels, and birds include eagles, pheasants, woodpeckers, cuckoos, cuckoos, fire swallows and nightingales.

The accumulation of Wulashan has rich historical and cultural connotations. Located on the banks of the Wula Mountain and the Yellow River, the three ancient tent sites were built during the Warring States period as military castles for King Wuling of Zhao to attack Hu Lin and the west of Loufan, namely Jiuyuan City at that time, Wuyuan County in the Han Dynasty and Zhongshui City in the Tang Dynasty. Pottery tile, pot, pottery jar, Ding iron pot, five baht coins, stone mortar, iron pot, moire tile and. Zhang Lianxi Dian Ancient City Site is located at the southern foot of Wula Mountain, which is Anyang County under the jurisdiction of Wuyuan County in Han Dynasty. The city guards the land and water of the east and west, and it is the pass of the east and west. In the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the city was abandoned. Pottery such as blue-gray and white-gray bottles, jars, pots and other cultural relics such as tiles and spindles have been unearthed.

There is also the Great Wall built by Zhao on Mount Wula. During the Warring States Period, King Wuling of Zhao practiced "riding and shooting with a huff", which greatly increased his strength, seized Henan land and occupied a vast area south of Yinshan Mountain. In order to consolidate the site, in 229 BC, Zhao built the Great Wall, castles and wasteland on the Wulashan line. The Wulashan section starts from the urban area in the east and ends in Quesai in the west. The city wall is made of natural stones, which meanders from east to west with the ups and downs of the terrain; There are more beacon towers and border castles. The purpose of the Great Wall in Zhao Xiujian is to guard the frontier and prevent the nomadic people in the northern grassland from going south.
