What are the interesting places in Zhangzhou, Fujian?

Sanping Temple, a national AAAA pilgrimage scenic spot.

Sanping Temple (also known as Zushigong), a master of Guangji, is a famous thousand-year-old temple in southern Fujian. Located in Wenfeng Township, Pinghe County, under the jurisdiction of Zhangzhou City, Fujian Province, it is nearly 50 kilometers away from Zhangzhou City, a famous historical and cultural city in China. Surrounded by mountains and forests; Bamboo waves are rolling, with beautiful scenery and colorful colors, which is a good place for people to visit for summer vacation. It receives 500,000 to 600,000 foreign friends, overseas Chinese, compatriots from Hong Kong, Taiwan and Chinese mainland tourists every year. On New Year's Eve, Sanping Temple was packed. Among them are kind men and women, and even people in their seventies come here to spend New Year's Eve. The incense is quite prosperous, lively and extraordinary, and there is no scenery.

Master Zhong Yi, born in Gaoling County, Xianyang, Shaanxi Province, is known as "Master Sanping" in southern Fujian and overseas. Because his father went to Fujian to be an official, Zhong Yi was born in Tang Fu County, Fuqing County, which is now under the jurisdiction of Fuzhou, Fujian Province, on the sixth day of the first month of the sixth year of Li Shixingyuan in Tang Dezong. Smart in righteousness, diligent and eager to learn since childhood, read widely and see the poems that can be recorded. My father is a master, and doctoral teachers are constantly coming. Later, because Tang Wuzong Li Yan abandoned the Buddha and destroyed the monk, Master Zhong Yi reluctantly bid farewell to Zizhi Mountain, led many monks and nuns, and finally came to the Nine Layers Rock of Peace. I saw the green mountains and green waters here, and the scenery was beautiful and charming. This is a good place to build temples and preach. He and other monks and nuns went through hardships and built Sanping Temple here.

Master Zhong Yi saw that the villagers here lived a slash-and-burn life, extremely poor and backward, and lacked medical care and medicine. Many villagers are poor and sick, forced to leave their homes and flee the countryside, resulting in barren hills here. He came to the villagers, asked the people how they were warm and cold, tried his best to treat the villagers, and taught his "Taizu Boxing" and "Shaozu Boxing" to the local villagers without reservation, so as to keep fit and prevent diseases, and won the welcome and appreciation of the people at home.

Master Zhong Yi came to Sanping Mountain, and he wholeheartedly sent doctors and medicines to the villagers. The good news of treating diseases was like waves of warm spring breeze, blowing out of the mountain. The escaped climbers were very happy to hear the news, and they all returned to the mountains one after another. Master Zhong Yi taught them advanced farming techniques and changed the backward face of slash-and-burn cultivation. He also actively guided the villagers to reclaim barren hills, build pastoral areas, build water conservancy projects and build cottages, so that the production in the deep mountains was restored and developed, the villagers lived and worked in peace and contentment, lived a self-sufficient natural and economic life, and lived in harmony with Master Zhong Yi and all monks and nuns.

When Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty revived Buddhism, the emperor named him "Master of Guangji". Master Zhong Yi preached more seriously and displayed his talents inside and outside Sanping Mountain.

On the sixth day of November in the 13th year of Tang Xiantong, Master Zhong Yi died in Sanping Temple at the age of 92. Because he did a lot of good things for his family all his life, later generations respectfully called him "Grandpa Sanping". /kloc-for more than 0/000 years, incense has flourished here, and people have always worshipped him as the god of charity. Even overseas Chinese and compatriots from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan who live abroad are obsessed with benevolence, righteousness and merits, and they are scrambling to come here to worship together and donate money to repair the temple.

Sanping Temple is a famous ancient temple in China. It was built more than 1 100 years ago. After many vicissitudes, it was destroyed and built again and again. Today, the Sanping Temple presented to pilgrims is rebuilt in Qing Dynasty. In the past ten years, with the investment of the local government and enthusiastic people at home and abroad, the thousand-year-old temple has been repaired and looks more brilliant.

This thousand-year-old temple is commonly known as "three halls and a half". The temple is built on the mountain, facing south, low in the front and high in the back, surrounded by mountains, with unique geographical conditions; In summer, the south wind jumps over the bamboo waves in the forest and blows gently, which is refreshing.

Sanping Ancient Temple has a total construction area of over 2,000 square meters. The building is divided into two groups: the former group consists of the mountain gate, the bell and drum tower, the monk's room and the hall of the Great Hero, and the latter group consists of the ancestral hall, the zhaitang and the tower hall. These buildings are unique.

There is a gold-lettered horizontal plaque inscribed by Mr. Zhao Puchu on the forehead of the rebuilt mountain gate, which shines brightly under the colorful sunshine; At the top of the mountain gate, there are two green dragons carved from colored porcelain, which are lifelike and have the potential to leap into the clear sky.

Pilgrims entered the gate and stepped into the patio. There are lotus ponds on both sides of the patio, and pilgrims go straight along the stone road in the middle and climb the steps, which is the newly decorated colorful Hall of Heroes. Daxiong Hall is three rooms wide, more than one meter higher than the mountain gate. The two corridors are opposite, and the wall of the right corridor is inlaid with the inscription of rebuilding Sanping Temple compiled by Cai Xin, the prime minister of Qing Dynasty.

Pilgrims enter the "ancestral hall", that is, the temple of "extensive benefit and righteousness". There is a promenade in front of the temple, and pilgrims have to enter the promenade from a side door to reach the temple. The main hall is three rooms wide, and there is a statue of the righteous Lord sitting in the hall, carved from camphor wood in the Qing Dynasty, more than one meter high. The joints of the statue can move, and as long as someone supports it, it can stand, which has a unique style.

At the highest point of Sanping Temple, the last entrance is called "Tower Hall", which has been carefully renovated and completely renewed. The base of the tower hall is two meters high and square; Double eaves, three rooms wide, with steps on both sides, pilgrims happily climbed the steps and entered the hall from a side door. In the very smooth terrazzo cage in the center of the hall, there is a sitting statue of Master Zhong Yi, the founder of Sanping. The statue is beautifully shaped, wearing a monk's hat and robe, with a kind face and approachable. There is the most incense here, often three floors inside and three floors outside. People are crowded and water can't escape.

In the middle of this tower hall, there is a round umbrella-shaped top cover, which is extremely elegant and unique in structure. The inscription is called "Bao Gai", which just covers the head of Master Guangji. According to legend, Master Zhong Yi died at the age of 92. After his death, his bones are still buried in the terrazzo cage under the seat, so pilgrims gather here, which is the most lively place in Sanping Temple. There are seven stone tablets on both sides of the temple wall, all of which are inscriptions for rebuilding the temple in Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Sanping Temple, a thousand-year-old temple with beautiful mountains and rivers and picturesque scenery, is a famous tourist attraction. The original eight scenic spots outside the temple, in addition to the immortal pavilion and the auxiliary lang pavilion, are now Tortoise Peak, Tiger Running Spring, Monk Pond, Mao Di Cave, Tiger Forest and Long Rui Waterfall.

At the back of Sanping Ancient Temple, the green trees are green all year round, which is extremely cool. There is also the famous "Tiger Running Spring" on the mountain. The spring water is clear and mellow, without any pollution. Pilgrims come here, drink a cup of spring water, and feel refreshed from the ice in their mouths to their hearts, and the summer heat completely disappears. The endless spring water in these four seasons is better than the mineral water sold in shops now.

In ancient times, there was a teahouse and a fish-watching platform. Cai Xin, a university student in the Cultural Center and a senior official in the Qing Dynasty, retired to his hometown. Every summer, he will come to Sanping Mountain from his hometown in Zhangpu, where he will make tea for the summer.

One mile southeast of Pinger Temple, there is a "Shi Mao Cave" site. The rock is engraved with three characters "Shi Mao Cave" inscribed by Li Pei. This cave is the place where Mao people lived. There is a stone candle on the stone, telling a magical story, giving this cave a mysterious color, which not only attracts many tourists, but also attracts historians and archaeologists at home and abroad.

Two miles before Sanping Temple, there is a waterfall. Visitors can hear the sound of water and thunder when approaching the waterfall, which creates a magnificent feeling. At the bottom of the waterfall, I looked up and saw the green mountain spring rushing down from the cliff of dozens of meters. There are countless water droplets in the generation, such as arrows, thousands of feathers in full swing, falling on the spirit like a reflection in the air, shining like a dragon; The water droplets are reflected by the bright sunshine, creating a charming rainbow on the deep pool, which is very spectacular.

Sanping Temple has a long history and enjoys a good reputation overseas, attracting a large number of overseas monks and pilgrims for a long time. Since 1979, international friends, Buddhist disciples and religious groups from all over the world have come to worship not far from Wan Li, with unprecedented pomp. Compatriots from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and overseas Chinese, who are devout in religious beliefs, come to worship and pay homage every year. They are very happy to witness the rapid restoration of monasteries in the mainland and the normal development of religious activities. They donated money in succession, expressing their willingness to contribute to the construction project. Sanping Temple, like a bridge to overseas, has made continuous contributions to the friendly exchanges between China and the people of other countries, especially Southeast Asian countries.

If a person lies on his back on a rock with his feet hard, the boulder will shake, but it will not fall down. People standing under the pneumatic stone have a thrilling feeling, sighing as a wonder of the world, hence the name "pneumatic stone", and the poem says: "The wind blows the stone and moves ten thousand horses."

Because there is a hole in the mountain, whenever it rains, clouds fly out of the hole, and after the rain clears, clouds float back into the hole, hence the name "Yundongyan". Yundongyan is less than 290 meters above sea level. This rock has a prominent peak, rugged rocks and various shapes, towering trees and deep caves.
