The old name of Yangshan was Xiangshan. It is located at the north of Nantang and the south of Lieyu with an altitude of 114 meters. The top area was composed of weathered granitic gneiss covered with basalt rocks.
In 1966, the 34th division of ROC troops built "Wu-Wang-Zai-Ju" Inscribed Rock on the mountain. Wrote by Gujin, the commander of Lieyu defence area, the "Wu-Wang-Zai-Ju Inscribed Rock Construction Story" explains the story of Yangshan inscribed rock in detail.
