The Western Hills Group (Chinese: 西山會議派; pinyin: xīshān huìyì pài) or Western Hills Conference was a right-wing[3][4] faction of the Chinese Nationalist Party, or KMT, active in the 1920s. The faction was formed at a meeting of KMT leaders opposed to communist influence held at Biyun Temple in the Western Hills district of Beijing in November 1925.[5] About half the KMT leadership attended the meeting.[6] The group included Lin Sen, Ju Zheng, Zou Lu, and Xie Chi.[5] In the three-way struggle for party leadership that followed the death of Sun Yat-sen, the group supported Hu Hanmin against leftist Wang Jingwei ("Reorganization Group") and centrist Chiang Kai-shek.
