Yangshan Mountain was named "Anyang Mountain" in ancient times. Anyang Duke got his title from the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty and was buried here, 12 km away from Wuxi, the famous tourist city in Southern Yangtze River, with Xinyi- Changxing Railway and Wuxi-Yixing Expressway crossing its area. There are four magnificent mountains and beautiful forests within its borders.

Yangshan Mountain is renowned for its peach blossom as "honey peach town". The annual Yangshan Peach Blossom Festival kicks off from March to April every year, attracting tourists to enjoy the beauty of peach blossom in spring. The culture and celebration of Yangshan Honey Peach has been included in the China Important Agricultural Heritage list.
