When the Western imperialist forces shared the wealth of China, the region of Mount Lu, or Lushan, was appreciated for its temperate climate, far from summer summer temperatures in the Plains of China. At their departure, the occupants abandoned an eclectic mixture of colonial architecture, of special British-style hotels to the bats of Germanic stone walls, passing through small French-style churches.Long before the West's presence in China, Lushan had already inspired many poets and painters thanks to its scenic mountainous panoramas that later were the scene of dramatic episodes of the Chinese Communist Revolution. In 1959, this was the first meeting of Mao Zedong, which led to the banning of the party of Peng Dehuai and Deng Xiaoping and announced the follies of the Great Leap Forward and those still coming from the cultural revolution. Eleven years later, it was during a new political rally in Lushan that Lin Biao, a great figure of the revolution and faithful among Mao's faithful, came to disapprove of the opening orientation desired by the Grand Timonier. A year later, he died under conditions still unsolved.Today Lushan is a world heritage site and attracts many tourists not only for its climate and beautiful landscapes, but also for this «pivot» in the history of the People's Republic of China. In summer and periods of national holidays, Lushan quickly became overcrowded. Travel out of season: With a bit of luck, you can take a hike in the surrounding hills without feeling like being part of a pilgrimage crowd. In any case, don't take your pleasure: the mountain is superb and has been classified as a world heritage site since 1996, since it is considered "a cultural landscape of great aesthetic importance, closely associated with fundamental values of China's spiritual and cultural life."
