Three mountains and five mountains, idiom, generally refers to famous mountains or places.
Although the three mountains and five mountains are not the highest mountains in China, they are all towering above the plains or basins, so they are particularly steep.
East, west and Zhongshan are all located on the banks of the Yellow River, which is the cradle of the Chinese nation and the earliest place where Chinese ancestors settled.
Sanshan Mountain is in the south, a little far from the Central Plains, and became famous after Wuyue Mountain, which reflects the expansion of the Chinese nation to the south and the spread of Central Plains culture.
