Chiang Kai-shek visited it many times to pay homage.

The Maha Hall faces east to west, with yellow walls and green tiles, pink walls and corridors, and eleven rooms on each side. There is a standing statue of Chiang Zongba on the front of the main hall, and on the walls on both sides are hung the historical relics of the Maha Hall and photos of Chiang Kai-shek paying homage to his ancestors and sweeping their tombs.

Zhang Xueliang's Forbidden Land This is a Western-style building with six guest rooms and a restaurant, covering an area of ??438 square meters. It was originally the Xuedou Mountain Guest House of Shanghai China Travel Service. Referred to as "China Travel Service". It was completed and opened in June 1934. In January 1937, the house was rented out by the Kuomintang Military Committee and renamed "Mr. Zhang Xueliang's Guest House".

In December 1936, patriotic generals Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng launched a military revolt in Xi'an. They put Chiang Kai-shek under house arrest in Xi'an for 13 days, forcing Chiang to resist Japan. After the Xi'an Incident was peacefully resolved, Zhang Xueliang sent Chiang Kai-shek back to Nanjing. Chiang Kai-shek organized a military court and sentenced Zhang Xueliang to ten years in prison. He was then pardoned and handed over to the Military Commission for "strict control", and Zhang Xueliang was placed under indefinite house arrest. In this way, Xuedou Mountain in Xikou became General Zhang Xueliang's first place of house arrest.

In the outdoor courtyard, there is a standing bronze statue of Zhang Xueliang. He is dressed in military uniform and has a heroic appearance. His majestic and righteous demeanor seems to be right in front of him.

Entering the room, there are three rooms facing south, which are Zhang Xueliang’s rooms. From the inside to the outside, there are bedrooms, study rooms, and reception rooms. The rooms facing north are for the spy captain, Zhang Xueliang's adjutants, nurses and others. The room facing the door is the bedroom of Qian Junzhi, the manager of China Travel Service.

While Zhang Xueliang was in Xuedou Mountain, there were spies in front and behind this house, and a company of military police were stationed at Xuedou Temple. The space Chiang Kai-shek gave Zhang Xueliang was "no more than Zhenhaikou to the east and no more than Cao'e River to the west." After Zhang Xueliang was put under house arrest, Shao Lizi, Wang Jingwei, Song Ziwen, Chen Buili and others visited him successively. Miss Zhao Si and his first wife Yu Fengzhi took turns to come here to accompany him.

Miaigaotai, also known as Miaofeng Peak and Tianzhu Peak, is the main landscape in the Xuedou Mountain Scenic Area. Although the altitude is only 396 meters, it is backed by mountains, with a bulge in the middle, cliffs on three sides, and an abyss below. The terrain is very steep. In a narrow sense, Miao Gao Terrace refers to a platform with an area of ??about 350 square meters. Standing at the front of the platform, you can look out at the natural scenery of the lake under the pavilion. The surrounding area of ??Miaogao Terrace is densely populated with ancient trees, green bamboos, and cool breezes, making it an ideal summer resort.

The building behind Miao Gao Terrace is a private villa built by Chiang Kai-shek in 1927. Looking up, there is a horizontal plaque of "Miaigaotai" with black characters on a white background hanging in the middle of the second floor, inscribed by Chiang Kai-shek himself. The entire villa is divided into two floors, with six upper and lower bungalows connected together by a Western-style platform, with a total construction area of ??436 square meters. Walking into the door, there is a patio in the middle of the first floor and a bungalow on both sides. The cement corridor on the second floor is connected to the balcony. There is a reception room in the middle, a bedroom on the east and a study on the west.

In the middle of the patio of the villa, there is a stone pagoda, which was the relic pagoda of Zen Master Shi Qi, the abbot of Xuedou Temple in the early Qing Dynasty. In the eighth year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1651), Zen Master Shi Qi rebuilt Xuedou Temple and reopened the Buddhist light in Xuedou Temple. After his death, in order to commemorate his achievements, later generations built this stone pagoda in the fourth year of Yongzheng (1726). Remember with ambition.

Miaogao Terrace was also the place where Chiang Kai-shek strategized. In January 1949, Chiang Kai-shek went to power for the third time and stayed in his hometown for three months and three days. Miaogaotai became the base camp for his behind-the-scenes command. During this period, Chiang Kai-shek met with more than 30 important military and political officials of the Kuomintang here. Miaogao Terrace once replaced Nanjing and became the temporary political and military center of the Kuomintang at that time.

Qianzhangyan" is one of the scenic spots in Xuedou Mountain. It is a famous resort since ancient times.

The Qianzhangyan Waterfall has a height of 186 meters and is famous for its majesty. Emperor Zhenzong of the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhao Heng, once named it the "Dongzhe Waterfall". Standing on the Feixue Pavilion, you can see the waterfall cascading down the cliff in front of you. The three characters "Qianzhangyan" in the rock wall were written by Mr. Huang Qi, vice chairman of the Chinese Calligraphers Association, and were carved in 1992.

The wonderful landscape of Qianzhangyan has attracted many literati to recite poems and praise it. Among them, the poem "Qianzhangyan Waterfall" by Wang Anshi, a writer of the Northern Song Dynasty, is the most famous: "Thousands of green peaks stand tall and suspended in the sky. Thousands of feet of water are scattered; when you look at the jade girl hanging on the silk, it turns into five-color writing when reflected in the sun."
