Woyunxiao temple

Yunxiao Temple, also known as Dashan Grandma Temple, was built during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Tang Dynasty. This temple was built by Chen Yuanguang, the "Holy King of Zhang Kai", in memory of his grandmother Wei Jingfu. The temple covers an area of about 100 mu and has more than 100 houses. This is a structure of blue bricks and small gray tiles. The temple is divided into one house and three courtyards (namely East Courtyard, Middle Courtyard and West Courtyard). The main hall of the Intermediate People's Court is spacious and bright, and the golden statue of Grandma Dashan sits on the lotus platform. There are statues such as the Queen Mother and the Dragon King in the East Hall. There are five statues of Yan in the west courtyard hall, all of which are dignified, simple and lifelike.

According to legend, from the Southern and Northern Dynasties to the Sui Dynasty, Anshan was constantly in war and had no education. There are hundreds of monks in the temple on the mountain. They colluded with local bandits to do evil, disobeyed the king's laws and violently attacked the village. The villagers are miserable. In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, it was still a spring breeze, and the monks still lived an evil life. Wei Jing, known as Mrs. Guo, took her husband, General Chen Kegeng, back to his hometown 3 kilometers north of Juan Mountain. Ashan monk was awed by Mrs. Wei's prestige, so he had to restrain himself and live a quiet life. However, after a long time, thieves germinated, made trouble and poisoned the mountain people. So Mrs. Wei mobilized 3,000 soldiers, led hundreds of war generals, braved the rolling stones and made great efforts to capture the old roof and blocked the back road, which was deeply respected and loved by the local people.

One day, Mrs. Wei rode to the top of the mountain with her beloved grandson Chen Yuanguang, and there was sunshine everywhere. The scenery is so beautiful, the King Kong Terrace in the distance is sky-high, and the Longtan nearby is glittering and level as a mirror. She felt surprised by herself and said, "This is a mountain made in the sky, and I will be buried there for sightseeing in a hundred years, from generation to generation." Yuanguang immediately saw grandma's wish. On that day, the grandson obeyed, wishing grandma a longer life than Mount An and building a temple in the future.

Historically, it has been attracting tourists from all over the world to climb mountains and worship. Especially in the three days from October 15th to 17th of the lunar calendar every year, hundreds of thousands of people from Henan and Anhui provinces go up the mountain to pay homage.

Second, the performance field.

The military training ground, commonly known as Laolongwo, is a flat mountain about 500 meters north of the main peak of Anshan, covering an area of about 20 mu. It's all planted into pine trees now.

According to the local people, this flat land was trained by General Zheng Chen (the father of Chen Yuanguang, the "King Zhang Kai") on the orders of the imperial court, but it was not as flat as it is now. It was Chen's father and son who leveled the ground for training non-commissioned officers. The soldiers trained in this small military field made great contributions to Joy Chen's counterinsurgency.

Third, the fairy cave

Xianren Cave is located on the wall of the upper wall of Anshan Mountain. It is as steep as a knife, and the entrance can only accommodate one person. This cave is more than ten meters deep. There are natural stone tables and benches in the stream, with an area of about 20 square meters, which can accommodate more than ten people and is surrounded by pine and cypress. What's even more amazing is that whenever it rains in Chuqing, no matter how far or near, there are always clouds inside and outside the cave, and what you feel is the cool breeze. The local people said that there was an ancient saying that "there must be rain in Huang Yun", and Huang Yun was just a cloud floating from this cave. Legend has it that the immortals in heaven find life in the heavenly palace boring, so they find a place on earth to get together. After searching hard, they finally found the fairy cave, a fairyland on earth that exudes the aura of heaven and earth.

Fourth, the sacrificial platform

Shejitai is located at the eastern end of Dashan Grandma Temple, above Fu Segi. It consists of two huge stones, about five or six feet wide and more than ten feet high. These two huge stones extend to the south, with mountains behind them and deep valleys in front. There is a crack more than two feet wide between the two huge stones, as steep as a knife and axe. Below the stone is a lawn with an area of about 100 mu. (Originally, Fusang Temple site) It is said that this stone is very miraculous.

Legend has it that during the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty, there was a filial wife who vowed to jump off a cliff to show her ambition because she could not bear the rumors spread by the wicked Wu Zhao and her slaves. Therefore, she will not die and be safe. This move completely dispelled the doubts of relatives and friends, and the good reputation of a filial wife has been passed down to this day. The evil Wu Zhao was finally killed by lightning. Therefore, the "sacrificial platform" was named.

Five, Kowloon waterfall

The inverted waterfall in Kowloon is located halfway up the mountain on the northern slope of Anshan, surrounded by rugged rocks, which are steep and dangerous, with high mountains and high waters. From then on, it winds down the cliff and forms a waterfall. After every rainstorm, the waterfall runs, splashing jade into beads and pouring into deep pools, which is spectacular. There are nine waterfalls on the cliff plane, like nine dragons hanging upside down in the clouds, which is called Jiulong Inverted. This is one of the main sights of the park.

6. Wang Min Temple

Wang Min Temple, also known as Longwang Temple and Sanlong Temple, was built in the Five Dynasties to commemorate the king of Fujian. According to legend, when he was a teenager, he loved reading and had great ambitions. /kloc-when he was 0/9 years old, he went to Fujian with his brother and used it as a prison. After his brother died of illness, he became the commander of a powerful army. Because he likes riding a white horse at ordinary times, the sergeants all call him "Mrs. White Horse Saburo"

During his reign in Fujian, he took protecting the environment and helping the people as the first policy, advocated frugality, didn't hitchhike, didn't hide in summer, and dealt with the border people-tried to turn the war base into land and compiled a letter to Yu Renyi. " In the first year of Ganning, there were hungry people. He forbade officers and men to kill, and comforted the hungry people, saying, "Historical facts are abuse. What can we do? "After Wang's appeasement of kindness and morality, he was able to make peace and calm the people's hearts, encourage farmers to work hard, clear up the mountainous wasteland to thousands of miles, and build dams, open up wasteland and build water conservancy projects along the coast. At the same time, he also encouraged farmers to plant tea trees, advised people to do business, vigorously developed shipbuilding industry, opened up a good port, expanded foreign trade, and called on all localities to set up recruiting halls. In the first year of Kaiping (A.D. 907), Emperor Taizu died, and Hou Liang Taizu ordered the judge, learned the Chinese book, made Fujian king, and promoted Fuzhou to viceroy. At that time, many heroes all over the country were divided into kingdoms, and his subordinates advised him to make Fujian emperor, but he tried his best to argue: "I would rather open the door than close it to be emperor." "Always respect the Central Plains dynasty as orthodox. In the third year of Tongguang in the later Tang Dynasty (AD 925), he died in Fuzhou on December 12th at the age of 64.

After his death, Fujian built many temples and shrines in pursuit of this outstanding Anbang wizard. In order to commemorate him, people in his hometown also went to the main peak of Jiashan, Tangke, to worship the saints. Later, it collapsed due to war and disrepair. Now, people in his hometown plan to rebuild temples and shrines on the basis of ruins and restore their original appearance for future generations to pay homage to their grandchildren.

Seven, the old harrow field

Old Harrow Field, also known as Old Pingtang, is a Pingshan located about 200 meters north of the main peak of Anshan. It used to be a temple in Hong Men, but now part of it has been changed into a tea field, and part of it has been planted with bamboo, about 20 acres. Legend has it that the incense of this Hongmen Temple is particularly prosperous, and there are many characters and statues in the temple, which is incomparable to other temples in this mountain. * * * * There are nearly a hundred monks, who are greedy for money and lust, collude with local officials, bully men and women, and rob women to hide in underground secret rooms for their entertainment. Due to the cover-up of the government, the people failed again and again. Fortunately, a new magistrate already knows this. Finally, the murdered girl was rescued, and the presiding monk was skinned for public display, while other evil monks hid in the underground secret room. Finally, the magistrate of a county ordered an iron rake to rake the ground, and as a result, all the evil monks' heads were raked into powder. Since then, no one dares to do evil here. From here, you can look up at Yunxiao Flower Temple, overlook the blue waves, overlook the mountains and listen to the pines. This is really a good place to enjoy the scenery.

Eight, gold and silver fish pond

There are two spring pools 20 meters behind Yunxiao Temple, the main peak of Anshan, which are connected with east and west, with the same area and water level. The pool surface is about 20 square meters, and the water depth is 6 meters, which is crystal clear. Regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter, rain and drought, the pool always maintains a certain water level. It is said that monks and Taoists who lived and practiced in this mountain often brought some injured fish and shrimps here to set them free in order to practice Buddhism and Taoism. Because these two ponds are connected, they are called gold and silver fish ponds. Also known as "water tank".

Nine, Hong Wushi

Hongwushi is a boulder located halfway up the south slope of Anshan. Its rock surface is smooth, reddish brown and rectangular, about 3 meters high and 20 cubic meters high. The traces left by Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, when grazing here can be clearly seen on the stone surface, just like a natural sculpture standing in front of us, with green grass, birds and flowers, and very pleasant scenery. It is an excellent scenic spot.

Legend has it that Zhu Yuanzhang, the great ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, was forced to leave his hometown because of his poor family when he was young, begging for survival along the way and fleeing to Huoqiu County, Anhui Province today to herd cattle for local landlords. During this period, he often plays and rests on this stone with other shepherds. Surprisingly, among many shepherds, only Zhu Yuanzhang's figure is deeply imprinted on this boulder. Later, because it was founded as emperor, it changed its name to Hongwu, hence the name "Hongwu". Today, people in western Anhui like to call it "shepherd stone".

Air-raid shelter

Air-raid shelter (military base), built by China People's Liberation Army in the late 1960s, is located 20 meters below the top of Anshan, with a total area of 360 square meters, 60 meters wide, 6 meters wide and 3 meters high, and can accommodate about 200 people. There are air holes at the top of the cave, which belongs to reinforced concrete frame. At that time, it was used as an air force radar unit to prepare for war, and it was the only important military fortress in our county. 1980, after the troops were withdrawn, they were handed over to the state-owned Gushi Forest Farm for management. Now the bomb shelter is well preserved and can be visited by tourists. It is also an excellent venue for military education and training.
