The Gedeng Mountain Stele is located on the Gedeng Mountain, more than 60 kilometers west of Zhaosu County. Its full name is "Pingding Junggar Le Mingge Mountain Stele". The inscription was personally drafted by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, and it is a huge granite stele erected on Gedeng Mountain. The stele is 2.95 meters high, 0.83 meters wide and 0.27 meters thick. Panlong is engraved on the forehead of the stele, "Huang Qing" is engraved on the front, and the word "Wan Gu" is engraved on the back. The inscription on the stele is a relief pattern of the sunrise in the East China Sea. It is engraved in Manchu and Chinese on the front and Mongolian and Tibetan on the back. The full text is vertically arranged, with a total of more than 210 characters in Chinese. Gedeng Mountain Stele was built in 1760 AD.
For more than 200 years, Gedeng Mountain has been famous for its stele. Although the stele has been eroded by wind and rain, and the inscriptions on the stele are scattered and mottled, the overall stele is intact. In 1975, the government allocated funds for reinforcement and renovation. This monument is a "Key Protected Cultural Relic in Xinjiang Autonomous Region".
