The geographical location of Jishi Mountain

Jishishan is located in the southwest of Gansu Province, at the foot of Xiaojiang Mountain in the northwest corner of Linxia Prefecture.

The word "accumulated stone" has a long history. There are two sayings in Shangshu Gong Yu: "Floating on accumulated stones" and "Drawing stones from rivers". Later, it was introduced into Historical Records Xia Benji by Sima Qian. "Historical Records" said: "Jishi Mountain is in the southwest of Jincheng, and the river passes through it." Textual research on historical records also says: Ji's family is in the southwest of Heguan County, Jincheng.

Jishixia has been the gateway of Lanzhou Yellow River Basin to Qinghai-Tibet Plateau since ancient times. The feudal dynasty built the Jishi Pass and stationed troops in the canyon. He Ming Zhou Wei's first pass in the twenty-four Guanzhong is Jishiguan, which is called "Jishiguan Lock Key".

There is a beautiful legend about the origin of Little Jishi Mountain. In ancient times, Nuwa used colored stones to fill the sky here, and then piled the remaining stones into a big stone mountain. The stones on the mountain are extremely beautiful and change with the intensity of sunlight. Because Nu Wa piled stones into a mountain, people called this mountain "Jishi Mountain".
