The first day, driving to the rooftop, less than two hours, the third-line scenery is really good; After arriving at Tiantai, I stayed at Tiantai Hotel in order to get closer to Xiaoguo Temple.
The next day, I began to contact the magical road of 30 degrees north latitude.
The existence of this road is destined to be extraordinary, and its location is near the most mysterious north latitude on earth.
Nearly 1800 years ago, Gao Xuan came here to explore Xianshan and climbed Guiyun Cave in Huading Mountain along Panshan Highway to grow ancient tea.
1600 years ago, Xie Lingyun, the originator of landscape poetry, traveled to Tiantai Mountain and brought Huading ancient tea to Xiatianzhu, West Lake, Hangzhou, so there was Longjing Tea, which is famous all over the world today.
65,438+0,400 years ago, the first case of Buddhism in China, the founder of Tiantai Sect, a master of wise men, set foot on this magical and magnificent land of Tiantai Mountain, spent ten years in Toutuo, verified Bodhi Tao, and finally worshipped Buddhism in Huading Mountain, and finally realized the Tao completely;
900 years ago, Zhang Boduan, the ancestor of the southern Sect of Taoism, began the road of cultivating truth, changing the cultivation of external alchemy into the cultivation of internal alchemy;
399 years ago, you Xusheng entered Tiantai Mountain for the first time. The route he walked on foot in those years was basically the same as that of this rock climbing competition.
Therefore, this is a cultural road, an eye-catching road and a healthy road. It's China Mountain Bike Buddha asking Xiake Road!
24 kilometers is the distance you measure the earth.
798 meters is the height at which you climbed to the top.
This Tiantai Mountain is dedicated to you, and we are proud of six beautiful places!
First stop: Parliament Temple, Royal Temple, breathing fresh air. Ready to go.
In 598 AD, King Yang Guangcheng of the Jin Dynasty hoped to build the National Assembly Temple. 1733, in the 11th year of Yongzheng, the National Assembly Temple was rebuilt by Feng Yi, which is the main building we see today. From 65438 to 0973, under the care of Premier Zhou, the state allocated 300,000 yuan to transport more than 90 national treasures from Beijing, including the 6 8-meter-high bronze statue of Sakyamuni and the eighteen arhats carved by nanmu in the Yuan Dynasty. Kokuseiji has several magical details:
First, the temple gate opens eastward, which is rare in temples in China. Whether it's "Feng Shui Theory" or "Jiangnan Garden Theory", it's refreshing just that the royal temples and folk buildings blend together.
Second, the prince, patron saint and Taoist priest? Wang Qiao, Prince of Zhou Lingwang, is enshrined in the Galatia Temple in the National Assembly Temple, which perfectly embodies the harmony between Buddhism and Taoism.
As the birthplace of harmonious culture, Sanxiantang recorded a magical and beautiful story. The wealth that is difficult to ride a tiger has inadvertently become the Hanshanzi of Hanshan Temple. The architectural style of Sanxian Hall is a small folk courtyard in the south of the Southern Dynasties.
4. The ancient beauty planted in 602 AD witnessed the vicissitudes and changes of the Treasury Temple, but it was on the verge of dying during the Cultural Revolution. Until the spring of 1973, lush foliage began to flourish, which happened to be the year when the State Council and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs jointly issued a document to allocate 300,000 yuan to rebuild the Treasury Temple.
Five, Tiantai Mountain Temple's four unique "National Pine, Gaomingzhong, Tower Head Wind, Wannian Column" is the chief pine tree appreciation place, with many squirrels, and pine trees with a age of 200 to 300 years abound.
The second stop: Chicheng Mountain where Buddhism and Taoism coexist.
Seen from a distance, the earth is red and shaped like a castle. Whenever the morning light shines, the mountains are purple and red, and the glow is shrouded, hence the name "Chicheng Qixia". There is the sixth cave of Taoism, Yujing Cave, and to the east of the gate is the prototype of Jigong, Ji Shuyan. Walking down the Wuyue Building in Jigong's reading room, it is a wonderful building-Jigong West Courtyard, which contains two mountain springs: Laughing Jigong, Longchi and Mao Feng. Further east is Jigong Hall (Jigong East Courtyard), which contains the most realistic statues and various sculptures of Jigong. After a hundred steps, turn right and you will arrive at Ziyun Cave, the famous buddhist nun in the southeast of Zhejiang.
Third stop: Qiongtai returns without looking at the valley-Qiongtai Fairy Valley.
After starting from the Haikeng parking lot under Chicheng Mountain, we will ride a gentle slope of about 500 meters, followed by a steep slope of 200 meters. Riding for about three kilometers, you can see the Qiongtai Fairy Valley scenic spot in the distance on the left. The mountains on both sides are opposite, and the mountains are towering and steep, with many strange peaks and staggered rocks. Riding here is fascinating, and the natural and elegant landscape can make people relax a lot.
Fourth stop: Tongbai Palace, the ancestral temple of Taoist Nanzu.
Next, after a gentle slope of about 2 kilometers, 500 meters high, it is difficult to climb to the cave. It is about 1.5km to Tongbaishang Reservoir (the whole journey here is about 7.3km). At this time, the front is the southern ancestral hall of Taoism-Tongbai Palace. During the reign of Xining in Song Shenzong (1068- 1077), Zhang Ziyang, the founder of Nanzong Ziyang School of Taoism, practiced alchemy here. Flowing south, the spring is full of water, and a waterfall flows down a hundred feet, watching the snow fly and listening to the wind. Riding here, I feel fresh and clear, as if I had a fairy lesson and I was tired of climbing.
Fifth stop: Liang Shi Waterfall, the first wonder in the world.
After Tongbai reached the reservoir, it was a continuous gentle slope. After the gentle slope, the most difficult long steep slope (estimated to be more than 2 kilometers) is ushered in. Flat roads and small downhill roads are about 2 kilometers, which are basically undulating roads. The last small uphill is more than 300 meters long. There is a fork in the road, the track turns right, and the scenic spot leading to the left is Liang Shi Waterfall. Liang Shi is the essence of the "Tang Poetry Road" in eastern Zhejiang, the end of the Tang Poetry Road and the Dojo of 500 arhats. Between the mountains and green valleys, a stone penetrates the sky, and waterfalls run down, "thundering day and night." The waterfall is as white as frost and snow, thunderous, and the clouds are surging and the trees are vibrating. It charmed the literati and poets of past dynasties, leaving countless magnificent poems, which is known as "the first wonder in the world". Waterfalls, like a pile of snow beads, are endless all year round, waving flags and shouting for you and doing a lot. Not far from Liang Shi Waterfall, there is a bronze pot waterfall. The waterfall falls into the pot, whirls around, spouts from a crack in the rock shaped like a spout, and pours into the abyss, forming a pool of green water, hence the name "copper pot dripping water". The scenery is unique and charming.
Sixth stop: Huading Forest Park, the highest peak of Tiantai Mountain.
There is a stone road after going up to Lingtou, Daxing Keng, in section ***5, and the two stone roads in the middle are in danger of downhill. Please pay attention to all riders! It was also a bumpy road before reaching Shuangxilingtou. After Shuangxilingtou went up, it was a gentle uphill. Masters can sprint from here and slowly climb up the mountain 1 km to the ticket booth in front of Huading Mountain. Finally, the most difficult thing to ride is 1.5 km, about 800m, which is the slope on the stone road. After climbing this slope, you will reach the end point-Huading National Forest Park, which is famous for its brocade cuckoo and was called Miluo in ancient times. Covering an area of 100 mu, every tree bears flowers and fruits, so it is also called "Rhododendron Thousand Flowers". After Xiaoman, the azaleas in the mountain are in full bloom, colorful and dazzling. Whenever the clouds come, the peak is like an island, and people walk in it, looming and the scenery is like nothing. A good ecological environment and active human protection, overlooking the top of the mountain, presents us with a wonderful scene of rapid change. Flowers bloom in the clouds, fog floats among the flowers, and clouds and flowers set each other off. It was indeed a scene for a while, and there was no similarity at all. When you board the Guiyun Pavilion, when the weather is fine, you can overlook the Eight Immortals Mountain from the rooftop and appreciate the vastness and aura of the 72 Lotus Peak "the top of the flower heart". Below the Guiyun Pavilion is the Guiyun Cave, where 18 clusters of ancient tea left over from the Three Kingdoms period are preserved. In Guiyunge, you can also overlook the Huading Hall, which was built in 936 and rebuilt in 1928. There are many very tall ancient Chinese fir trees in front of the lecture hall, the largest of which is 7.8 meters high and 4.8 meters in circumference.
This is a heaven and a perfect track. The whole track is surrounded by the beauty of flowers and green plants, and the sound of mountains and rivers is endless. Let this cycling race be no longer a sweaty venue, but a feast of body and mind.
As the sun sets, I can't bear to go back to Hangzhou!
