Where is the Longpingshan volcano located?

The Longpingshan volcano at 30 degrees north latitude is the only pollution-free and unique crater tourism resource within 200 kilometers around Chengdu. The geographical coordinates there are roughly 102°7′54″ east longitude and 30°4′21″ north latitude

Beautiful volcanoes, magical molten caves, perfect ecology, and natural humanity. In addition, the pleasant climate, sweet spring water, fresh air, etc. make it the most suitable place for human beings to travel and live. In this historical process of changing seas into mulberry fields. This is a very valuable trip. This is why the crater is a dream tourist destination.

The Longping Mountain Crater Park in Mengli has been built into a distinctive theme park displaying volcanic culture, three-dimensional ecological garden culture and modern agricultural culture. There are unique volcanic ecological squares, majestic hiking trails, various ancient tree corridors, ingenious cloud bridges and pools, a knowledgeable earth science museum, complete volcanic caldera ruins, as well as the simple local customs, The unique handicrafts and tempting mountain delicacies - Huoshan City stone roasted sheep, etc., make tourists come in an endless stream and never want to leave.

That year, at midnight on December 1, 1350 AD, the volcano erupted with an earth-shattering sound: spewing rocks hundreds of miles away and injuring dozens of people. The "Lushan County Chronicle" at that time recorded that it was the tenth year of Yuan Zhizheng. A month later, Liu Futong and Han Santong, with their heads wrapped in red scarves, began to rebel by the Yellow River. Eighteen years later, Zhu Yuanzhang's Ming Dynasty was founded in Nanjing.

It is said that Longping Mountain was hit by an extraterrestrial asteroid, causing a volcanic eruption, because many people and geological experts often go there to look for meteorites, which are shuttle-shaped, and some investors go there to start projects. Oil and silver mines, but none yet profitable.

The largest investment in Longping Mountain came from a grant from the World Bank to plant 300 acres of cedar trees. It was 180,000 yuan in 1992. In 2003, there was another national natural forest protection project. The funds were implemented there. This time, 80,000 yuan was invested to plant 1,000 acres of yellow cypress. Later, there was a project to convert farmland into forest to plant water bamboo at the head of the field in the crater. Because the compensation standard was not high, farmers planted rapeseed in the forest land in winter. Moreover, the area has been raised a little publicly, and the country has acknowledged the increase. The Longpingshan Crater is located under the Yingzui Rock on the left bank of the Yuxi River, 12 kilometers north of the provincial historical and cultural city of Lushan, with an altitude of 1,034 meters and a radius of 220,000 square meters.

The hot springs here are scorching, the streams are gurgling, the cliffs are dense, the cracks in the walls are secluded, the stone forests are strange, the loquats are sweet, you can see the golden snow-capped mountains to the west, and the rooftop cloud waterfall to the east. There are more than 80 boulders of 5,000 cubic meters or even tens of thousands of cubic meters here. One stone is a scenic spot, and one stone is a geological textbook. There are cliffs on the east and west sides of the Longpingshan crater. The rock formations are broken due to volcanic eruptions. There are as many as a hundred places, and the villagers call them big cracks and small cracks. The big crack, which is 1,569 meters above sea level, is more than 600 meters deep and is of great exploration value. There were hot springs on the Longping Mountain crater 50 years ago. It gradually dried up and silted up, but the old peas planted within 990 square meters of the spring were completely different: after a little cooking, they became crispy and crumbly like mud. Cold-water fish frogs and dragons can be raised in the 1-kilometer-long Hongshui stream southeast of Longpingshan Crater. Pollution-free vegetables can be grown on the 270 acres of farmland returned to forestry on the Pingshan crater. The 3,000 acres of non-cultivated land northwest of the Longpingshan crater has been used to raise meat, goose and sheep on yellow cypress trees to develop a characteristic three-dimensional farming industry and add some The tourism and leisure facilities can be upgraded to a modern subtropical agricultural estate integrating tourism, adventure, and sightseeing agriculture, and a paradise on earth will be opened up in the Sichuan Provincial Scenic Area of ??Lingjiu Mountain-Daxue Peak. It is the only pollution-free and unique crater tourism resource within 200 kilometers around Chengdu.

Longping Mountain is an extinct volcano located in the south-central part of Weitagang, at the junction of Shuangshi Town, Longxing Village, Longmen Township, Lushan County, Weita Village, Renjia Village, and Dapen Village. Regarding Longping Mountain, the folks who rely on the mountain describe it this way: There is a pond at the foot of Yingtai Mountain, and the water flows back outside the Nitong Cave. It is thought that a corner of the sky basin is missing, and thousands of strange rocks are all over the hillside.

In 1969, an educated youth named Zhang Encheng from Hongqiang Lane in Chengdu dug out a copy of "Lushan County Chronicle" and there was a short paragraph in it: In the tenth year of Yuan Zhizheng, rocks were sprayed thousands of miles away, killing and injuring countless residents. Opening the "History of the Ming Dynasty" again, I learned that the Red Turban Army uprising occurred in the 11th year of Yuan Zhizheng, and Zhu Yuanzhang changed the name of the country in the 28th year of Yuan Zhizheng. Therefore, Longping Mountain has a history: it erupted in 1350 AD.

About Longping Mountain, folks with rich voices have this legend: In 1999, two merchants from Liuzhou came to Longping Mountain to search for half a year. They knocked down piles of volcanic rocks, saying that they wanted to refine silver. On the way, Shuai Tao, the secretary of the county party committee, was alarmed. Groups of people went up to Longping Mountain. The villagers were happy for a while. Later, experts from the Mine Management Bureau concluded that those big rocks were marine deposits and there could be no silver ore. . Longping Mountain was a bit deserted, even though the oil exploration team later made the diesel engine noisy all over the mountain. Later, the folks who had spent most of their lives plowing the land for food got very excited and converted more than 200 acres of land on Longping Mountain into forests and planted water bamboos. Then, they invited each other to travel all over the country to earn money.
