Yuanshan Site is an archaeological location in Zhongshan containing remains from multiple settlement layers. It displays stone tools and pottery fragments left behind by early inhabitants of the area.

The site shows traces of settlement from the Neolithic period and was inhabited over a long span of time. Excavations in the 1970s brought these early remains to light.

The objects found here show how early residents of the region lived and worked, especially through their craftsmanship and tool-making practices. Visitors can observe how people managed daily tasks long before other cultures arrived on the island.
