First, Longdong Mountain
In the south of Longdong Village, Yao Jia Town, Jinan suburb, there are many peaks and steep mountains, which are collectively called Longdong Mountain, named after Longdong Mountain. Here in Longdongzhuang, the mountains are magical. There are Laojun Cliff and Phoenix Terrace in the north, and Duxiu Peak and Sanxiu Peak in the south, which form a valley surrounded by cliffs, hence the name Longdongyu. There are Laojun Cliffs on both sides of Meiyukou, and there are Laojun Wells under the cliff. It is said that Laojuntai was once an alchemist here. Opposite Laojun Cliff, on the east side is Phoenix Terrace, which is said to be the habitat of Phoenix in the past. The two mountains are opposite, and the bottom of the valley is clear and beautiful. South of the deep valley, facing the giant peak, the wall stands, surrounded by stars and white clouds, and the scenery is wonderful. It's called Bai Yunfeng. From here to the west, through a canyon, you will reach the hinterland of Longdongyu. The dangerous peaks in this area stand on the wall, as steep as holes, as if they were caused by magic. There are famous temples built since Wei and Jin Dynasties. In the fourth year of Zhiping (1076), Song Yingzong was named Shousheng Hospital. The temple is dedicated to the dragon king, dragon son, dragon girl, golden dragon and other gods, with strong incense. In July of the second year of Yuanfeng (1079), the dragon god here was named Zhongshunhou. During the Jin Dynasty, he was promoted to Linghuigong. Now the temple has collapsed, but two old ginkgo trees are flourishing. Stone tablets carved in the second year of Yuanfeng and the third year of Fuyuan in the Northern Song Dynasty (1 100) still exist today, recording the story of mountain dragons and rain.
Nanfeng, the former site, is a vulture perch rock. At the top of the rock stands a seven-step stone tower with a height of12m. It looks like the West Wild Goose Pagoda and is called Gratitude Pagoda. It was built in the sixth year of Song Zhenghe (1 16). Guanyin statue is enshrined in the tower. Under the pagoda, there are relics of Lin Bu (now Huimin) and Zong Yi, a monk of Kaiyuan Temple. The inscription on the tower is embedded in the front of the tower. On the north side of vulture rock, Duxiufeng stands tall, and the stone wall is engraved with more than 10 Chinese characters, which are used to visit the dragon gods and scenic spots since the Song and Yuan Dynasties. There is an inscription by Fan Chunren Yuanfeng (108 1), the son of Fan Zhongyan, a statesman of the Song Dynasty. These lettering are three feet high, vigorous and graceful, which is a wonder. In the middle of the two peaks, there is a huge straight cliff, like a screen, called Jinping Rock, with cypress trees hanging on it and Jing Yu dotted with mountain flowers. The walls are carved with endless white clouds, golden screens, Xiao Chun and other giant stone carvings. Among them, in the 22nd year of Guangxu (1896), Liu Wenzhu, a famous scholar in Jinan, wrote down 1,000 towering city walls, which could accommodate one person. Every spring, mountain flowers bloom like embroidery, which is known as the golden screen of spring dawn. In the old days, they were listed as one of the eight scenic spots in Jinan.
Between the southwest cliffs facing Jinping Rock is the famous Dragon Cave. The entrance of the cave is 2.7 meters high and 1.3 meters wide, and couplets are engraved on the stone walls on both sides, which is full of magic. It was written by Gong, the magistrate of Jinan during Tongzhi period of Qing Dynasty. The hole runs through from east to west and is about 100 meters long.

There are three groups of Buddha statues carved on the wall, totaling more than 50, three of which are 4 meters high. they
