八公山、淮水之南、肥水之北，方圆200余公里，有紫金山、五株山等大小山峰四十余座。又名紫金山。《宋.张永德传》曰“世宗亲征至寿州，领军前至紫金山。”《太平寰宇记》也称“紫金山即八公山也”。《晋书.符坚》中“袁瑾固守寿春，为大司马植温所围，坚遣王鉴、张蚝率步骑二万救之，鉴据洛涧，蚝屯八公山。”
八公山，重峦迭嶂，碧岗如屏。它内有圣人之道，外有仙人之表，恰如南北朝诗人吴均《八公山赋》所描述“峻极之山 蓄圣表仙。.....尔其盘恒基固，含阳纳雾，绝壁险隙，层岩回互，桂皎月而常圆，云望空而自布......"八公山西面更是一派深邃清幽的仙家气派，当晚霞化作紫烟，朵朵白云孑然自去时，使人顿生奇思妙想。这便是在千里长淮最具盛名的“八公仙境”。
