Extended data:

There are two versions of the name "Xiangshan" in historical documents.

The first one comes from the people. It is said that there was a large area of apricot flowers planted on Xiangshan Mountain in the early years. Every year at the flowering stage, the flowers here are rich, hence the name.

Second, it is from "Ai 'an Temple in Xiangshan", which says that there is a big stone in the mountain, and its shape is very similar to the incense burner in the temple, so the mountain is named after the stone in the shape of incense burner.

Hongye Culture Festival

Starting from 1989, the Red Leaf Culture Festival with the theme of viewing red leaves will be held every autumn. The red leaves in the exhibition mainly include pentagonal maple, triangular maple, chicken claw maple and persimmon tree. The largest red-leaf tree species is Cotinus coggygria, with nearly 654.38 million+plants. The leaves of these red-leaf trees contain a lot of chlorophyll, lutein, carotenoids, carotene and anthocyanins. Chlorophyll carries out photosynthesis in spring and summer, making the leaves appear green. When the weather turns cold in frost and autumn, the temperature difference between day and night increases, the chlorophyll synthesis is blocked and gradually destroyed, while carotenoids, carotene and anthocyanins increase, making the leaves appear red, yellow, orange and red.
