Guoshan Stele, Stone monument in Zhangzhu Town, Yixing, China.
The cylindrical stone stele stands 2.35 meters tall at the western foot of Guoshan Mountain, featuring 43 lines of Zhuan-style character inscriptions.
Following an earthquake in 276 CE during the Eastern Wu Kingdom, the discovery of a stone chamber led Sun Hao to commission this monument through minister Dong Chao.
The stele represents traditional Chinese stone carving techniques and contains inscriptions that document ancient philosophical perspectives and governmental practices.
Visitors can reach the site through Changzhou Airport or Nanjing Lukou Airport, with accommodation options available in nearby Zhangzhu Town.
The monument emerged after a natural phenomenon revealed a 100-foot-long stone chamber, transforming Limo Mountain into the culturally significant Guoshan.
