Jingyang Ridge 景阳冈

About Jingyang Ridge

Liaocheng municipal government records the site as a nationally protected cultural heritage site and a 4A-rated scenic area, and describes the ground as sandy and undulating, with rough grass and tree cover. The visit is organised around the novel rather than around a single monument: the named features are the tavern known from the phrase about three bowls and not crossing the ridge, the spot identified as the place where Wu Song fought the tiger, a temple to Wu Song, and a stele forest.

It is worth being clear about what is what. The municipal page does not state what the national heritage listing covers or give any date for remains on the ridge, and the buildings it names are presented as scenic-area features tied to the story. Anything a visitor is shown as the site of an episode from the novel should be read as commemorative rather than as documented fabric.
