The Anti-Japanese War site of Zhimujie
(Approximately 935 meters above sea level
The terrain is perilous, and the road climbs in a zigzag-like pattern. There is a local folk song that goes: "Xuefeng Mountain, mountain after mountain, 331 turns, 331 passes, each one is the gate of death."

It is a base for Anti-Japanese War culture and patriotic education.
In April 1945, the Japanese invading forces launched the "Zhijiang Campaign", aiming to capture Zhijiang Airport via Xuefeng Mountain. Chinese military and civilians dug trenches layer by layer along the perilous positions on the mountainside and built defensive shelters. Relying on the natural barrier of the Xuefeng Mountain, they successfully blocked the Japanese advance and won the shocking victory of the Xuefeng Mountain Campaign (Xiangxi Campaign) that shocked the world. Two months after the Battle of Xuefeng Mountain, Japan negotiated a surrender in Zhijiang and later signed the surrender agreement in Nanjing. The main battlefield of the Xuefeng Mountain Campaign was located in Xuefeng Mountain and its surrounding areas. During the campaign, the anti-Japanese military and civilians built over 50 kilometers of trenches and more than 20 fortifications such as bunkers, hidden caves and machine gun shelters in the Xuefeng Mountain National Forest Park. Now this place has become a base for Anti-Japanese War culture, patriotic education and science popularization of animals and plants.
