About Wushan Square
Its broad public space contrasts with the narrower lanes of Hefang Street, while Chenghuang Pavilion provides a landmark above the hillside. The square is useful as a meeting and orientation point for the old-city area, with separate visits to street shops or the hill rather than a stand-alone collection of monuments. The visible layout reflects modern rebuilding.
What to look for
- The open public space at the foot of Wu Hill.
- Views toward Chenghuang Pavilion above the neighbouring historic streets.
