Introduction to the scenic spots of Wufeng Mountain
Wufeng Mountain, with an altitude of 1523 meters, has a unique mountain shape and is divided into five fingers, hence its name. Located in Hanzhai Village, Chengyang Township, 16 kilometers east of Pengyang County. It borders the Great Wall Plateau to the north, the Ru River to the south, a deep stream to the west, and a valley to the east. The mountains are covered with sea buckthorn and onions, pines and cypresses are green, mountain peaches are shaded, the flowers are as red as fire, the grass is green, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. It looks like a green gem inlaid on the north bank of Ruhe River. Being immersed in the scene is indescribably poetic. Five fingers stand up on the mountain to express the strange fragrance, and the pink clouds are dyed with spring brocade. The temples on Wufeng Mountain were built during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. There are 6 temples, covering an area of ??5,000 square meters, and more than 50 large and small halls. There are pavilions, pavilions, towers and pavilions built on the five peaks. They are exquisitely constructed, with cornices and brackets, carved beams and painted buildings. They are magnificent, antique and magnificent.
The statues in the hall have unique facial features and each show their power. Some have green faces and fangs, showing fierce looks, while others have beautiful features, are kind and elegant, and are exquisitely crafted and lifelike. The murals in the temple are all graceful and full of meaning.
Mysterious Wufeng Mountain
Recalling the past, I remember the Wufeng Mountain I visited when I was young. Before going, I knew very little about Wufeng Mountain. It is only known that this mountain is in Qilu and belongs to the branch of Mount Tai. It is called the "Three Mountains in Central Shandong" together with Lingyan Mountain and Mount Tai, and they are both Taoist holy places. In addition to my ignorance, this is also because Wufeng Mountain was developed very late as a tourist attraction. Compared with the world-famous Mount Tai and the popular Lingyan Mountain temples, Wufeng Mountain is obviously a bit lonely.
The main peak of Wufeng Mountain is 565 meters above sea level. It is named after five parallel beautiful peaks. Five peaks are spread out in staggered rows, with clouds surrounding the peaks, springs emerging from stone crevices, and palaces, temples, pavilions and platforms hidden among the green trees.
On the day we entered the mountain, because it was not fully developed at the time, we made various preparations, including tea eggs and a military kettle filled with water (standard equipment in the 1980s). As soon as we entered the mountain, I feel that the road is narrower, the sky is smaller, the trees are all around, and the mountains are quiet. I bought a tourist map locally. After reading it many times, I still took the wrong route. I wandered back and forth on the mountain road several times before I found the correct place in the map. It was already early winter, and most of the trees outside the mountains had lost all their leaves. However, Wufeng Mountain has towering ancient trees and is full of green trees, mostly pines and cypresses. The tree trunks are twisted and cracked, like an old man in his twilight years, but the crown of the tree is lush with branches and leaves, and its vitality is as strong as a young man in his prime.
Wufeng Mountain is named after the five peaks that emerged from the sky. Legend has it that the five daughters of the Jade Emperor went to the lower world to play privately. They were fascinated by the quiet mountains here, so they transformed into five beautiful peaks and stayed here forever. A group of us stood at the foot of the mountain and looked in the direction pointed by the locals. We saw five peaks of different sizes sticking out of a green mountain screen, and the pavilions above were vaguely visible. The names of these five peaks are also interesting. They are: Yingxian Peak, Wangxian Peak, Huixian Peak, Zhixian Peak, and Qunxian Peak. I wonder if there really were some gods in ancient times who often gathered and played here and traveled around the world?
Wufeng Mountain is a Taoist holy land, so naturally there are Taoist temples. Entering Dongzhen Temple, we saw a red-brown stone tablet.
According to the stele: China's famous Taoist holy land, its Taoist temples are divided into northern and southern temples. The southern temple is named Xuandu Temple, which is the incense courtyard of King Mingde; the northern temple is Dongzhen Temple. According to the "Wufeng Mountain Chronicles": "Wufeng Mountain was built in the Qin Dynasty, flourished in the Northern Wei Dynasty, expanded in the Jin and Yuan Dynasties, prospered in the Zhu Ming Dynasty, and became dirty in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties." "Dongzhen Temple" was pardoned by Emperor Xuanzong of the Jin Dynasty. It was pardoned in the Yuan Dynasty and was consecrated to the "Guangdong Shenxu Palace". In the Ming Dynasty, it was pardoned and consecrated to the "Guoguo Longshou Palace". It has the Imperial Palace Gate, the Wuchao Gate, the Sanqing Hall and the Jade Emperor. Hall, Qingleng Pavilion, Bixiao Hall, Zhenwu Hall, Zhenyuan Hall, Chaoyang Cave, Qingdi Palace and other landscapes. The two temples cover an area of ??2,668 acres, are large in scale and majestic. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "climbing Mount Tai makes the world smaller, and you can only see the tranquility when you climb the five peaks".
The little-known Wufeng Mountain has such a long history, it can be regarded as "ancient". Among them, the Imperial Palace Gate, Jade Emperor Hall and Sanyuan Hall were all built in the Yuan Dynasty. The Imperial Palace Gate is an all-wooden structure, with eight stone lions on the base with different postures and naive expressions. The Holy Buddha Lotus Cave on the east side of Yingxian Peak is a Buddhist grotto statue carved during the Eastern Wei and Northern Qi Dynasties. It has high artistic value and illustrates the Buddhist activities that existed in Wufeng Mountain in the early years. In addition to these relics from past dynasties, a ginkgo tree that is more than 2,600 years old is the best witness. This tree is 35 meters high and is a hermaphrodite. The trunk needs to be hugged by seven or eight people. The crown is like a huge umbrella, covering the entire courtyard. The beautiful ginkgo leaves are like butterflies, shining golden in the sun. Glossy, breathtaking.
Nanguan has disappeared. Not far from Guannan is the tomb of King De of the Ming Dynasty. The buildings in Dongzhen Temple are still well preserved. They are all built along the mountain and up the steps. There are views at every level and they are well-proportioned. There is no need to be surprised that the Supreme Lord is enshrined in the hall. As the founder of Taoism, it is his duty to enjoy the incense on his own one-third of an acre of land. In the Bixiao Hall, there is a beautiful woman with a dignified face and kind eyes called "Bixiao Yuanjun". Who is Bixiao Yuanjun? It turns out that she is the sister of Bixia Yuanjun, commonly known as "Grandma Taishan", and is also called "Grandma Wufengshan". The two sisters each occupy a hilltop. I guess they have relieved a lot of worries and brought a lot of blessings to the people in this area, right?
After visiting the Taoist temple, I climbed up the ninety-nine steps (which means ninety-nine return to one), and then climbed up the narrow stone steps. Wufeng Mountain is not high, and the mountain road winds in a zigzag shape. After a few turns, the road becomes steeper, and people begin to pant and sweat. Finally arrived at Wangxian Peak. There is a pavilion built on the top of the peak, and we took a rest in the pavilion. Looking back, I can see that the valley beside me is bottomless and shrouded in mist; in the distance, there are continuous mountains and green hills. When the sun shines, a layer of milky white mist is rising up. It really feels like entering a fairyland. . Take a few deep breaths, and your mind suddenly becomes brighter. Continue climbing and soon reach the top of the mountain. The top of the mountain is relatively flat. If you look to the left, you can see Yingxian Peak standing steeply; if you look to the right, you can also see Huixian Peak and Qunxian Peak on the cliff. They are welcoming the immortals and us with their attitude unchanged for thousands of years. These lay people come here in admiration. Seeing that it was already late, I did not visit other peaks, but returned along the original route.
It is said that many tourists from Jiangsu and Zhejiang once said that Mount Tai was nothing more than this after visiting Mount Tai. I understand this. Anyone who is used to seeing the mountains and rivers of the south rarely appreciates the scenery of the north. Even Mount Tai is famous not only for its majestic momentum, but also for the cultural connotation it carries and its cultural landscape. The mountains and rivers in the south are beautiful because of the mountains and water, and the water is because of the spirit of the mountains. Every small scene is poetic and picturesque, so there are many talented people and beautiful women in the south. The mountains in the north often appear simple and lacking in elegance because of the lack of water. If we talk about the characteristics of Wufeng Mountain, besides the word "ancient", there is only the word "quiet".
I remember the poem "Tao Qing":
White clouds, yellow cranes, Taoist family, a piano, a sword, a cup of tea,
The feathers are often smoky, not stained by the peach and plum trees in the world. flower.
The world of ordinary people laughs and laughs, why are you traveling around the world?
After suffering all the hardships, you will correct the path and will not be stained by the peach and plum blossoms in the world.
In the ordinary world, people laugh and laugh, why are you fighting for fame and fortune?
It is better to turn back and understand the great road, and live in a carefree world.
Quietness and inaction are my home, and the Tao is untainted by the worldly world.
Visit famous teachers to correct the Tao, and the flat peaches will go to Longhua.
