Hubu Mountain, a historical and cultural street at your doorstep

Hubu Mountain is a historical and cultural street located in the urban area of ​​Xuzhou, covering an area of ​​2.58 square kilometers. It got its name because in the fourth year of Tianqi in the Ming Dynasty (1624), Zhang Xuan, the head of Xuzhou's Ministry of Revenue, moved his office to the mountain to avoid floods. Later, officials and businessmen in the Ming and Qing dynasties concentrated on building houses on the mountain, making it the political and cultural center of Xuzhou for more than 300 years. The scenic area has a strong ancient style and is lined with buildings. It is a good place for humanities learning and costume photography. It is mainly composed of three parts: Ximatai, Cui Family Courtyard, and Folk Museum. In history, there are footprints of celebrities such as Xiang Yu, Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Southern Song Dynasty, Su Shi, Wen Tianxiang, Xin Qiji, and Xie Lingyun. In 206 BC, Xiang Yu, the King of Western Chu, established his capital in Pengcheng and built Ximatai on the top of the mountain, which became the first scenic spot in Xuzhou. ---Xuzhou is a prosperous city that never sleeps. There was a saying in history that "the poor live in the North Gate, the rich live in the South Gate, and the wealthy all live in Hubu Mountain."
