The Three Sus Garden lies at the foot of Little Emei Mountain in Ciba Town, Jia County. Brothers Su Shi and Su Zhe are buried here, and in the Yuan dynasty a cenotaph was erected for their father, Su Xun. Together they are known as the 'Three Su Tombs,' a national key cultural heritage site. The garden contains the Three Su Shrine, the tomb grounds and several hundred ancient cypress trees, and a newly built Three Su Memorial Hall presents the lives, poetry, prose and calligraphy of the three Sus. It suits visitors who love Song-dynasty literature. A visit takes about 1.5 hours; admission follows the site on the day. It is about 40 km from Pingdingshan city center and can be combined with Xiangshan Temple and Fengxue Temple as a one-day cultural route.
