Junshan Hill stands opposite the well-known Yueyang Pavilion. It is actually a small island in the lake, which consists of 72 hills of different sizes. It was originally named 'Dongting Hill', meaning 'cave of immortals'. Legend has it that 4,000 years ago when Emperor Shun toured in South China, his two concubines E Huang and Nv Ying, also called Xiang Fei and Xiang Jun, went to search for their husband. When they got to the hill
,
they heard he was dead. They wept so sadly that the bamboos on which their tears dropped changed into mottled bamboos. Later they passed away and were buried on the hill. To memorialize these two soulful lovers, the mountain was renamed Junshan.
