The Chongyang Palace, 20 kilometers west of Xinchang City, is located in the rock-breaking Nineteen Peak Scenic Area. It is deeply hidden in the Zhu Gui Valley surrounded by mountains and flowing clear water, and is known as a Taoist resort in eastern Zhejiang.
In this area, there were Gao Hong, Wei Boyang, Chu, Xu Mai, Wang Xizhi and Xie Lingyun in the Six Dynasties, and Gao Dao Sima, Wu Jun and Li Bai in the Tang Dynasty.
Taoism is Yang in the upper part, Yin in the lower part, Yang in the clear part, Yin in the turbid part, and Yang in the upper part and Qing in the upper part, so it is called "Chongyang". At the beginning of Tang Kaiyuan (7 13-74 1), Wu Yun, a famous Taoist scholar in China, was married in the valley and was rewarded by Li Bai, the 15th descendant of Shangqing School, and lived in seclusion. It is regarded as the tenth hole by Taoism and named Huiji Cave because it belongs to Huiji Mountain Range.
In the ninth year of Kaiyuan, Sima Chengzhen, the 12th master of Shangqing School, was called to visit Wu Jun, but he came back in vain, so he suddenly felt remorse, leaving a regrettable ruin of the mountain bridge, which was also regarded as the 60th blessed land by Taoism.
Due to the change of time, Cao Lu in Chongyang has long been forgotten, and the ancient Taoist view has also disappeared. At the beginning of the new century, in order to excavate and inherit Taoist culture, this palace was built on the former site of Cao Lu, Chongyang, in cooperation with the filming of "The Condor Heroes" by CCTV.
The Chongyang Palace Scenic Area is divided into four parts, which are composed of "supernatural access to wonderful areas", "Taiqing Courtyard", "Moon Palace" and "Taoist Culture Health Park".
Psychic Entering the Wonderful Zone: Entering the scenic spot means psychic entering the wonderful zone, where the atmosphere is gathered and there are four characters of "Ming Dow Lide", which clearly indicates that Confucianism and Taoism are integrated in one furnace.
The main tour routes are the "Wan Qi Gate" archway, the mountain gate, the surging water, Zhuoying Pavilion, Banmu Pond, Wenchang Pavilion and two temples. Along the way, Zhu Gui welcomed guests with lofty sentiments and beautiful waves, and there were couplets written by famous artists for tourists to appreciate, understand the gods, live in harmony with nature and enter the spiritual realm.
Taiqingyuan: As soon as you enter the "Stargazing Gate" archway, it is Taiqingyuan. Its courtyard is built on the mountain, and there are 19 Qifeng arches in front of it, which is simple and exquisite and full of natural interest.
On the central axis are Lingguan Hall, Sanqing Hall, Sanhuang Hall and Shengsendai in turn. There are three halls on the west side: Sanguan Hall, Cihang Hall and Sanyang Hall, with the Drum Tower in front. There are the Temple of Wealth, the Temple of Heaven Medicine and Transfer Hall on the east side, and the Bell Tower in front.
An altar will be built in the pavilion on the east side of the square in front of the hospital for fasting and prayer. Taiqingge occupies a high position, worships the gods, performs his duties, saves his life and blesses Eritrea. The morning bell and the evening drum, the Taoist spirit lasts forever.
Yuelao Temple: It consists of Hongxi Hall, San Xiao Hall, Legal Department and Zhu Gui Auditorium.
San Xiao Temple is dedicated to "seeing off the son, giving birth to the empress and seeing off the empress". If you can worship devoutly, you will get your son and your children will grow up healthily. Hongxi Hall is dedicated to the amiable and respectable old man under the moon. In that beautiful and romantic love story, the red line in Yue Lao's hand became the hope and expectation of boys and girls.
There are acacia trees in front of the temple, HongLing, the first lover and the old man in unrequited love, and trees are everywhere. Under the moon, the old man tied this HongLing (red rope), which symbolizes love, to the feet of both men and women to make them love each other.
Taoist Culture Health Park: In the valley of Zhu Gui, the auspicious light and purple gas flow endlessly to the east, and it is preserved as "Jade Qing Pool". Further upstream, there is a hole in the sky, which is suspected to be the former site of Chongyang Cao Lu, where Wu Yun and Li Bai live together. Therefore, it is planned to rebuild the concept of Shangqing, in order to worship the immortals of Shangqing School such as Sima Chengzhen, Wu Yun and Li Bai, rebuild the bridge of regret, and reproduce the ancient charm and high style of Shangqing School.
It is planned to build Yangzhen Hall at the customs clearance in Shanghai, fully carry forward the Taoist health-keeping tradition, and carry out activities such as Taoist martial arts, Dan Dao Qigong and medical health-keeping, so as to make it a psychological and physical health-keeping base in Zhejiang Province, allowing tourists to graze their souls and return to nature, reflecting Taoism's "immortal way, precious life".
