  兴隆山　道教名山。位于甘肃省榆中县西南约五公里处。因明末山中众多宫观庙宇毁于兵火，清康熙年间渐有道士于山中重修宫观，为取其山败而复兴之意，遂名“兴隆山”。乾隆年间，又因山形“有如兴龙之状”，改名“兴龙山”，嘉庆末年山中游人增多，香火又盛，为取兴隆发达之意，复称原名。据史料所载，西周时期，便有方士在此山中隐居修炼，东汉末期，山上始有庙宇建筑，唐贞观年间（ 627—649 ）时人曾大兴土木，于山营建道观，至宋代时山中宫观庙宇已星罗棋布，四时香火旺盛，有道教“洞天福地”之称，被誉为“甘肃之名山，兰郡之胜境”，元代又有重修，渐成为西北道教名山之一，明末除灵官殿、玉皇宫、二仙殿、三圣祠等少数道教建筑外，余皆毁于兵火，清乾隆年间（ 1737—1795 ），著名道士刘一明募集资金，率领道众，历时 35 年重建三清殿、黑虎殿、斗姥宫、王母宫、三圣母庙、关帝庙、祖师殿、龙王殿、财神殿、药王殿、洞宾楼、混元阁、二仙坛、洗心亭等宫观建筑 60 余座，后大部分建筑逐渐被毁。今山中尚留有 1939 年由内蒙伊克昭蒙伊金霍洛旗移来的元太祖成吉思汗妃子灵枢与同年修建的喜松亭及蒋介石避暑行宫等名胜古迹。现为甘肃省省级自然风景保护区和兰州市近郊旅游胜地，是甘肃著名的道教名山之一
