Located in the northeast of Chenzhou, Mount Suxian is 1.5 kilometers away from the downtown area. Beautiful peaks and dense forests give the place the reputation of being "the 18th blessed land in China". The main scenic spots include Suxian Temple, Peach Blossom Chamber, White Deer Cave, Three Forever Stele, and Immortal Stone. They are all valuable attractions and destinations. There are many historical legends associated with it. The famous patriotic general Zhang Xueliang (1901-2001) was once confined here, and his picture and inscriptions are still on display in one of the wing rooms today. Because of Mount Suxian's relations with immortal affairs, every year many tourists pay a visit here to experience the ancient culture and the gorgeous natural scenery.

It is said that during the Western Han Dynasty, there was a beautiful and knowledgeable girl surnamed Pan. One day she was washing clothes on the bank of the Chenjiang River. Her wooden club was caught by a red ribbon flowing in the river. It could not be pulled away by hand, so she used her teeth to nip. However, the red ribbon fell into her stomach, and she became pregnant. To avoid the tease from villagers, she hid herself in a cave in Mount Suxian and gave birth to a boy named Su Xian. After Su Xian's birth, white cranes warmed his body with feathers; white deer milked him. Su Xian was later named Sundan by his mother of the sceneries around him. From small, he cultivated himself and finally ascended to heaven by a white crane. Before he flew upwards, he got to know that in the next year Chenzhou would suffer a plague. He told his mother to boil water from wells with oranges to cure plagues. His mother followed his instructions and saved a lot of people. These people, in order to thank him, built a Suxian Palace Mount Suxian. For this reason, Mount Suxian became famous.
