Red columns and white walls, green glazed tiles, octagonal conical roof. The total height is about 50 meters. Tile eaves at all levels are picked out with brick teeth, with flat seats and doors, windows or niches on all sides. The flat seat is narrow and it is inconvenient to walk.

Chinese Name: Lotus Pagoda Location: Lotus Mountain, Panyu Climate Type: Subtropical Monsoon Climate Opening Hours: All-day Features, Legends, Features Lotus Pagoda, also known as Wenchang Pagoda, has nine floors outside and eleven floors inside, with masonry structure. This tower used to be called "the capital of China", because when I came to Guangzhou from other places, I knew I had entered the gate of the provincial capital as soon as I saw the Lotus Pagoda. Climb the Lotus Pagoda and you can have a panoramic view of the surrounding beauty. Tadong, the river flows south, the smoke is vast, and Dongguan is across the river. To the south, you can vaguely see the Humen Bridge where Lin Zexu burns opium. Southeast is the direction of Hong Kong. In the northwest, there are thousands of miles of fertile land, criss-crossing buildings and tall buildings in the fog. That is Panyu and Guangzhou. What a beautiful rural scenery! Really feel "relaxed and happy, forget all the insults." Under the Lotus Pagoda is the Peach Blossom Garden. Peach blossom, beautiful and moving, who doesn't like it? Every Spring Festival, Lotus Mountain will hold a grand Peach Blossom Festival. At that time, colorful flowers will bloom, red rain will turn into waves at will, and Qingshan will turn into a bridge intentionally. Crossing Wenfeng Trail and coming to the square in front of Lianhua Building, people are suddenly enlightened. There is a big fountain in front of you, on which stands a beautiful white marble lotus fairy. She is very popular among tourists, and everyone should take a photo with her as a souvenir. At the railing in the north of the square, there is an observation deck full of scenery. You see, the mountains are rolling in the distance, and the masts are like clouds. That's Huangpu New Port in Guangzhou. Below the observation deck is Lianhuashan Golf Course. You see, the huge stadium is so oily green and surrounded by beautiful water. Rows of villas and clubs are like pearls inlaid in green satin. How beautiful! Legend has it that a long time ago, an official from Beijing came to Guangdong. Seeing that Guangdong has fertile land and abundant resources, he invited a clever Mr. Feng Shui at a high price to try to drive Guangdong away through Feng Shui. Mr. Feng Shui thought it was not difficult to move to Guangdong. He told Jing Guan: "The stratum in Guangdong is very thin, which seems to be the bottom of a ship. As long as three masts are installed on this ship, you can move Guangdong. " Jing Guan was very happy after hearing this and asked Mr. Feng Shui how to install these three masts. The panoramic feng shui master said: "From the perspective of feng shui practice, choosing a good feng shui cave to build three pagodas is like building an altar with three masts (that is, three sails) on a ship. With the help of the east wind, this ship in Guangdong can sail to the north." Hearing this, Jing Guan told the Feng Shui master to explore the acupoints as soon as possible. Fascinated by money, Mr. Feng Shui immediately took a compass and other tools from Guangzhou to the south. After some searching, he finally decided to build towers in Chigang, Pazhou and Lianhua Mountain. Jing Guan immediately sent someone to start the construction. Soon, three magnificent pagodas were built one after another, and Jing Guan and Mr. Feng Shui were very happy. At this time, Mr. Feng Shui's daughter-in-law, a Cantonese, was very angry when she learned of the conspiracy between Jia Gong and Jing Guan. She believes that the stratum in Guangdong is like the bottom of a ship. It can sail with three sails. If the bottom of the ship is cut and the iron anchor is thrown, the ship cannot sail. Yes, you have one. I have a wall ladder. After making up her mind, she went to three places where towers were built, told local villagers about the plot of Beijing officials to transport Guangdong, and pointed out how they broke three masts: digging a big well next to each tower is equivalent to digging a hole at the bottom of the ship and putting a big chain at the wellhead, just like dropping an anchor on the ship. So, the three villagers acted according to her instructions, which really broke the plot of Beijing officials to move out of Guangdong. Next to the Lotus Hill Tower, a big well 40 years ago is still visible, and there is a big chain at the wellhead. After the completion of Lianhua Mountain Pagoda, the emperor sealed the imperial edict that "it must rot but not fall". Up to now, despite hundreds of years of vicissitudes, the pagoda still stands proudly on the banks of the lion ocean. More than 40 years ago, when the Japanese invaded China, a fleet sailed into Humen Sea. When it saw a wall under the tower, it was suspected to be a watchtower, that is, the tower was bombed on the second, third, fourth and seventh floors in the southeast, but it failed to knock down the lotus tower. 198 1 year, He Xian and two brothers donated money to rebuild the Lotus Pagoda, making this Lotus Pagoda, which is known as the "flower-watching of the provincial capital", regain its glory. People climbed the Lotus Pagoda to overlook it. The lion's Wang Yang, the majestic Tiger Mountain, the busy Huangpu Port and the vast farmland are all vivid and panoramic. The beautiful scenery of South Guangdong really opened the eyes of tourists and doubled their interest. distant view
