Mount Song, one of the Five Sacred Mountains of Taoism, is located in Henan province on the south bank of the Yellow River in China. Its summit is 1,500 meters above sea level. The Historic Monuments of Mount Song have been placed on the UNESCO World Heritage Sites Tentative List and will be considered in 2010 for the inscription.

Mount Song is made up of several mountains that rise to 1500m in the Dengfeng district of Henan Province. Despite the mountain being one of the Daoist sacred mountains, the mountain is predominantly Buddhist today. It is home to the Shaolin Temple, the birthplace of Zen Buddhism, and even today the temple's collection of stupas is the largest in China. The Zhongyue Temple is one of the earliest Taoist temples in the country. The Songyang Academy nearby was one of the four great academies of ancient China. The mountain are populated with Taoist and especially Buddhist monasteries. The 6th century Songyue Pagoda is also located here, as well as Tang Dynasty (618–907) pagodas within the Fawang Temple.
