This subdistrict got its name from Xiangshan (Fragrant Hills) (Chinese: 香山; pinyin: Xiāngshān) in the subdistrict.[2] The name derives from the highest peak of Fragrant Hills, Xianglu Feng (Incense Burner Peak), a 557-meter (1,827 ft) hill with two large stones resembling incense burners at the top.
