The ultimate goal of visiting Yunmen Mountain is to celebrate the birthday. During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Daigui, the second king of Heng, celebrated his birthday. He was in charge of Jiyang and carved the word "longevity" on the cliff under the mountain shade, which is rare at home and abroad, in order to please Heng Wang. The big word "shou" is rigorous and dignified. It faces north, 7.5 meters high and 3.7 meters wide. The word "inch" under the word "shou" alone is as high as 2.23 meters. Therefore, local people often say: "Man is one inch taller", "Life is not as good as Nanshan" and "Life in the south is not as good as that in the north". There are many wonderful legends and allusions circulating in Yunmen Mountain, as well as the word "longevity". Yunmen Mountain is 408 meters above sea level. Visitors can climb the stairs, go to the extreme, and stand on the "longevity", which can make you think a lot. Cloud Gate Wonderland has always been favored by both Buddhism and Taoism. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Buddhism flourished and became a resort for Buddhist disciples. According to the New Tang Book.
There are 5 grottoes and 272 statues on the Yangpo of Yunmen Mountain. Although these statues have experienced vicissitudes of life, wind and rain erosion and war looting for more than 1000 years, most of them are still basically intact, and now they have become extremely precious physical materials for studying ancient Buddhist art and plastic arts at that time. They are a wonderful flower in the existing grottoes in eastern China. The statues are mainly the three saints in the west (Amitabha and Guanyin, two bodhisattvas in the general trend), as well as the statues of Lux and Sakyamuni, as well as the portraits of the providers. Most of these stone statues are accompanied by accurate dating. Only in the first grotto, there are more than 0 inscriptions 10, such as "Nine years, Ten years, Eighteen years and Two years of Renshou". On the left is Yunmen Grottoes in 1930s, on the right is the existing Yunmen Grottoes, and on the east side behind Yunmen Mountain, the "Wanchun Cave" excavated in Jiyang. The cave is 1.6m high, 1.2m wide and 5m deep. In the south of the cave, there is a stone statue of Chen Tuan, an old man sleeping with a pillow. Above the head of the stone statue in Chen Tuan, there is a poem "Song of Mountain Dwelling" inscribed by Xue Kun, a hermit in the Ming Dynasty: The wild stone bed opens into the sky, and the hat is placed in the east. Late at night, white clouds rise, and Mo Guanlong comes to sleep under the couch. His poems are bold and unconstrained, and his fonts are vigorous and powerful. Xue Xiu, a hermit in Ming Dynasty, was born in Qixian County, Henan Province. His surname is Su Mingzhou, and his road number is Xuexiu. He lived in Qingzhou for several years and had contacts with Hengwang. Alcoholic, good at writing big characters, writing freely and vigorously. There are six ink marks left by him on Yunmen Mountain, such as "God is there", "Beyond dust and dreams" and "Wonderful workmanship". These works are rare masterpieces of calligraphy. There is also a poem written by Jiang Hangu in the Ming Dynasty, "Jun Mian makes me drunk, I am drunk from Jun Mian Middle School, and those who wake up move in succession, and are not allowed to close their arms", which is well-known and intriguing. Outside the cave, there are other monuments such as "Cool Book Desk" and "Fairy Footprints".
The main peak of Yunmen Mountain is called "Dayunding", which looks like a fish ridge, running east and west, and there are many temples and palaces. On the top of the mountain, there is a palace of "Dongyue Emperor", which is dedicated to the mother of Mount Tai. Langfeng Pavilion is built on the east and west sides, and the Panshan stone steps are 968. Yunmen Mountain Fairy Jade Temple, Wangshou Pavilion, red walls and blue tiles are antique and magnificent.
Ding Dayun, the main peak of Yunmen Mountain, is symmetrical from east to west. The peaks on both sides are shaped like wings, with a bulge in the middle, such as the brim of a gauze hat, which looks like a natural gauze hat. What is even more peculiar is that the top of Yin Bao, the main peak of Moqi Mountain, looks like a natural "Yin Bao" from Ding Dayun to the southeast, while the main peak of Pishan, looking south, looks like a face facing the sky, and the three mountains have become interesting accordingly, and many stories have been circulated. According to legend, Qin Shihuang visited Qingzhou that year. When I came to Yunmen Mountain, I found it was a place where hidden dragons and crouching tigers were hiding. The Mountain with a Face looks like a sleeping face. Its eyes, nose and mouth are clear and lifelike, serene and cultured. The gauze cap is placed on its left, the towering cloud top is a black gauze cap crown, and the east and west wind pavilions on both sides are black gauze wings. And its official seal is placed between the gauze cap and itself, with a round print head and a high print handle, which is nothing like it. Seeing this, Qin Shihuang was shocked. The feng shui here is unbreakable, and our country is unstable. So I sent someone to pick out the nasal tendons, and there are still gouges in the "ravine" so far; Pushing down Yin Da's handle has become today's "grinding navel mountain"; Cut a hole in the crown of their jobs hat, which is the cloud gate hole. 1.
