Tongshan ({{zh|s={{linktext|通山|县}} |t={{linktext|通山|縣}} |p=Tōngshān Xiàn}}) is a county of Xianning City, in the southeastern part of Hubei province, People's Republic of China, bordering Jiangxi to the south.
The county is located along Hubei's mountainous south-eastern border with Jiangxi. Its best known tourist attraction is the Jiugong Mountain National Park ({{lang|zh-hans|九宫山风景区}}), located in the Jiugong Range, south of Jiugongshan Town.
The county is roughly coterminous with the upper part of the basin of the Fushui River, which flows eastward, into the neighboring Yangxin County, where it discharges into the Yangtze. A fairly large Fushui Reservoir (Fushui Shuiku) is formed on this river and its tributaries within Tongshan County by a dam that's actually built in Yangxin County, a bit downstream of the county line. The Fushui's tributaries also include a few minor reservoirs.
The county seat is in the town of Tongyang ({{lang|zh-hans|通羊镇}}); as it is customary in China, this location is usually labeled on less-detailed maps simply as "Tongshan County" ({{lang|zh-hans|通山县}}) or "Tongshan".
The county is served by China National Highway 106 (G106), which joins with G316 near the eastern tip of the county.
Xianning Nuclear Power Plant is under construction near Tongshan County's Dafan Town.
Administrative divisions
The county is divided into 8 towns, 4 townships and 1 other area:{{cite web|url=http://www.tongshan.gov.cn/html/2015/0930/36745.shtml |script-title=zh:通山县-行政区划| language = zh-hans|publisher=Tongshan County People's Government |quote="{{lang|zh-hans|截至目臆，通山县辖8个镇、4个乡、1个管委会。{...}九宫山名胜风景区管委会{...}通羊镇{...}南林桥镇{...}厦铺镇{...}闯王镇{...}九宫山镇{...}洪港镇{...}大畈镇{...}黄沙铺镇{...}大路乡{...}杨芳林乡{...}燕厦乡{...}慈口乡{...}}}"|date=30 September 2015|accessdate=9 March 2018}}{{cite web|url=http://www.stats.gov.cn/tjsj/tjbz/tjyqhdmhcxhfdm/2016/42/12/421224.html |script-title=zh:2016年统计用区划代码和城乡划分代码：通山县|trans-title=2016 Statistical Area Numbers and Rural-Urban Area Numbers: Tongshan County | language = zh-hans| publisher = National Bureau of Statistics of the People's Republic of China |quote="{{lang|zh-hans|统计用区划代码 名称 421224100000 通羊镇 421224101000 南林桥镇 421224102000 黄沙铺镇 421224103000 厦铺镇 421224104000 九宫山镇 421224105000 闯王镇 421224106000 洪港镇 421224107000 大畈镇 421224200000 大路乡 421224201000 杨芳林乡 421224202000 燕厦乡 421224203000 慈口乡 421224450000 九宫山自然保护管理局 421224570000 开发区}}"|date=2016|access-date=15 April 2018}}
