Yunyang county has experienced thousands of years of vicissitudes, from Buddhist temples to Taoist temples to academies. Nevertheless, they all set up the Nanyue Palace to worship the holy emperor of Nanyue. Let the holy emperor of Nanyue share the same fragrance with the Buddha and Taoist ancestors, and even worship with the sage of Confucius and live in harmony. Formed the cultural phenomenon of Yunyang Mountain. Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism all took a fancy to this site and regarded it as a "treasure house of geomantic omen" because they thought it was a depressed place in Yunyang Mountain. People think that the holy emperor of South Vietnam built the Nanyue Palace here because he took a fancy to this site. People think that there must be "aura" in the place where the holy emperor takes a fancy. This site is surrounded by mountains on three sides, with the mountain at the back higher and the two mountains at the left and right lower, just like an armchair in Zhang Chaodong. Folklore makes this armchair look great. It is said that there is no mountain behind here, and it is surrounded by mountains around. Later, the fairy who sneaked down to take a bath at Swan Lake in Yunyang Mountain saw that Nanyue Palace was built under the peak and it was inconvenient to take a bath, so she threw down three pieces of wet mud and turned it into a mountain, blocking her view.
Therefore, Yunyang county's immortal Taoist view is a bit "immortal".
Yunyang Xiangu Nanyue Palace has four scenic spots on the left: Wulichi, Shi Jian Rock, Guanyinyan and Yixiantian. These four scenic spots are connected into a whole, each showing its own style. Baiyun Temple, formerly known as Baiyun Temple, is called Baiyun Xian by the people. Before and after the Yuan Dynasty, it was an unknown little buddhist nun in Shan Ye. During the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty (1368~ 1398), fame rose and incense flourished. The reason is that Duan Wen, the former governor of Yunnan, took a fancy to this site. Duan Wen, the word Sifeng, was appointed as the top of the world by Zhu Yuanzhang. Later, Duan Wen, then a thousand households in Chaling, was called to Yunnan to be stationed and was named General Mingde. In the 19th year of Hongwu (1586), he was promoted to general Wude. It is said that when Duan Wen was young, he once climbed Weifeng and passed Baiyun Temple. Suddenly he heard a loud noise, only to see the mountainside of the peak crack, revealing a huge stone, standing on the mountainside like a mighty general. There is a saying among the people in Chaling: "Yunyang Mountain laughs and the generals come out." Chaling dialect refers to mountain fissure as "laughter"
Duan Wen was so frightened that he didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse, so he went to Baiyun Temple and smoked a lot. Seeing that he had won the contract, the monk congratulated him again and again: "Congratulations: the sentence' General Yunyang smiles' has come true for you." After listening to the monk, he still didn't believe it. The monk said that Wei Zifeng is the spiritual peak of Yunyang Mountain, and Baiyun Temple is located under Wei Zifeng and is the base of the spiritual peak. Meeting "Yunyang Mountain Laughter" here will come true. Duan Wen had an idea from then on. If there is a future, Baiyun Temple must be rebuilt.
In the twentieth year of Hongwu (1387), after Duan Wen returned to the field, he donated 3,200 taels of silver to rebuild Baiyun Temple and advised the temple to donate more than 400 mu of land. Baiyun Temple has flourished since then, with more than 200 monks at most. Baiyun Temple, which was built in 20 12 years ago, was restored by stages in 1992 and 2008.
The wild tea in front of Baiyun Temple was very famous in ancient times, called "Baiyun Tea", which was used by monks to drink tea and entertain pilgrims. Wei Zifeng is 864.7 meters above sea level, which is the second peak of Yunyang Mountain. The cliff at the summit is steep and rugged, such as squatting and jumping, and there are many rock pillars on the side of the peak. Xu described the peak in the Diary of Chu Ci as follows: "The cliff is high and the bamboo shoots stand."
Wei Zifeng is the best scenic spot, which is called "one peak and three counties". Chaling County in the east, Anren Xiong 'er Mountain in the south and Youxian County in the north. Climbing the peak and overlooking, the peaks are green and green, and the potential is like a green tide. When it rains, it is clear, and the peaks are washed, which is especially beautiful and moist. The beautiful peaks above the sea of clouds are half exposed, such as Penglai Fairy Island. Tan, a poet in Qing Dynasty, described the landscape of "Ziweicui" in "Ziweifeng" as spectacular: "Looking down, the peaks are low. And then what? The day immediately enters dawn and dusk. Raindrops are separated by rainbows. The stone is flat on the yellow land, and the waves are resting on the blue stream. It is closer to the sky, and guests live in harmony with the clouds. "
Looking at the East, the "Shui Gu Circulation" landscape, the first of the "Eight Scenes" in Chaling, is vivid. -Water flows down from the blue sky like silver thread, meets Wenjiang and Tea, half embraces Chaling City, and flows through Yunyang Yunshan Miaomiao Gorge, journey to the south. Because the two tributaries of Wenjiang and Chashui are sometimes slightly muddy yellow, the spectacle of "hanging gourd with gold thread" is formed. As night falls, the lanterns in the mountain city compete with the rice and water around the city and the bright starry sky, which are colorful and fascinating. Some poets compared the Chaling in this scene to the "Crystal Palace": "The first peak in Yunyang is beautiful and exquisite. Weishui flows from the south to the west to the east, and flows around the ring in the north. Ewangcheng is in the Crystal Palace. " Yue Fei was stationed in Chaling City, so he called Chaling City "Wang E City".
Ziwei Peak is another good place to watch the sunrise. In the early morning, the sea of clouds is vast, if the tide surges, the red sun spews, and the clouds are steamed and dyed, which seems to raise your hand. It makes people walk into the artistic conception of "the shadow of the sun shakes the ziyun, and the tide washes the clothes". Luo Mao, a poet in Ming Dynasty, praised Dawn of Purple. "In the morning, the sea is red and purple is shining. Wang Duiyao Waterfall is crisp and the jade cold tree is heavy. Crows bring morning smoke to the wilderness, and geese drag autumn colors across the clear sky. The Baxian Cave is empty, just like the first peak in Penglai. " In order to watch the sunrise in Wei Zi, many tourists climbed to the top of the mountain for a picnic and spent the night the day before, and it is faster to watch the sunrise in Wei Zi.
Wei Zifeng is the second highest peak in Yunyang Mountains, and the first peak is Zhengyang Peak (963.2m above sea level). Although Wei Zifeng is not the first peak of Yunyang Mountain, it is famous for its majestic and beautiful scenery, so it is called "the first peak of Yunyang". In addition, its cultural heritage is profound and colorful. Every rock, every grotto, and even the mountain scenery in the shape of a mountain have strong cultural elements and are accompanied by magical stories.
