Suxian Mountain is located at the Chenzhou suburbs, southeast Hunan Province. This mountain is not high indeed, with its elevation only 525 meters. But it has been very famous since ancient times as "World Eighteenth Blessing Land". This is because it had relations with immortal affairs. For over a thousand years, it is famous for this reason. It is only 2 kilometers away from Chenzhou.

It is said that during the Western Han Dynasty, there was a beautiful and learnt girl surnamed Pan. One day she was washing clothes on the bank of 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 the teeth to nip. However, the red ribbon fell into in her stomach, and she became pregnant. To avoid the tease from villagers, she hid herself in a cave in Suxian Mountain, and gave birth to a boy, Suxian. After Su Xian was born, white cranes warmed his body with feathers; white deer milked him. Su Xian was later name Sundan by his mother for sceneries around. From small he cultivated himself, and finally ascended to heaven by a white crane. Before he flied upwards he got to know that in next year Chenzhou neighborhood 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 Su Xian Palace in Suxian Mountain. For this reason, Suxian Mountain became famous.

Suxian Mountain's original name is Niupi Mountain. It changed its name to Suxian Mountain because Su Dan cultivated himself to become an immortal. As early as in the Tang Dynasty, Suxian Mountain enjoyed fine reputation as "World Eighteenth Blessing Land".

Xu Xiake Travel Log in The Ming Dynasty once wrote related description about it "...In the lunar tenth day of April, 1637...". The book proves that from ancient time, Suxian Mountain is a blessing land.

On the top of Suxian Mountain, there are two Chinese characters "Longevity Mountain" (shou shan) in 55 * 45 centimeters, annotated by "Longevity Mountain Blessing Land" (shou shan fu di) but two characters "Blessing Land" (fu di) until now never appear. Chenzhou grace people thought that since Suxian Mountain is a blessing land, therefore no need of engraving " Blessing Land" (fu di) again. In order to fully implement the instructions of the Municipal Marty Committee, the Municipal Government and the Municipal Administration Bureau, to promote Suxian Mountain taste and status, and probe deep into Suxian Mountain human culture as "World Eighteenth Blessing Land", Suxian Mountain Scenery Administration reformed the walls inside by building stone hills on the road sides of inner square, and engraved "Blessing" (fu) in different styles and sizes. The character's typeface all stemmed from 18 emperor's writings since Tang Taizhong. By "Ten thousand"(wan) is meant many, so "Ten thousand blessings "implies being propitious and indicated that it is ancient place of "World Eighteenth Blessing Land". "Ten thousand Blessings Mountain" (wan fu shan) means that Suxian Mountain is a blessing place. It is said that if you touch or count the number of "blessing" (fu), you will be as blessing and fortune as the Heaven. The completion of Wanfu Mountain makes the square theme more distinct and clear.

Su Dan left the common people not merely a beautiful story, but also a huge cultural wealth. Su Dan' saving deeds Of "Well Side Fragrant Orange" together with famous doctor Dong Feng's "Apricot Wood Warm Spring" in Three Kingdom became two Chinese classic stories of traditional Chinese medicine. They are also the moral standards of traditional Chinese medicine to treat illness and to save patients.

Su Dan's "Well Side Fragrant Orange" story is widely spread among the Chinese people worldwide. Su Dan's story with its cultural spirit is the world Chinese people's common culture treasure. In order to demonstrate Su Dan' hometown, people reformed the walls outside by building stone hills and waterfalls on the road sides of square, originating from the "Well Side Fragrant Orange" story. It inter-reflects with the rich human culture, and increases the culture taste and flavor. Because the rocky mountain waterfall stands on a corner of square, also close to Suxian Mountain "World Eighteenth Blessing Land ", therefore it acquires its name "Near Blessing Corner" (lin fu yu).
