Wushan is a prominent hill south of Hangzhou’s old city area.  The hill is topped with a pavilion called Cheng Huang (Pavilion of the City God).  The old Temple of the City God once stood at the foot of this hill.  The pavilion is huge and is a recent construction, having been built in the 1990’s.  It has six floors with an elevator and an excellent view of the West Lake and southern Hangzhou.
