Cultural landscape has a long history. Because Zhang Sanfeng, the founder of Zhenwu, saw through the world of mortals and stopped being an emperor on earth and went out to practice, he had to rely on the heavenly sword to set up a Mao 'an in the "Shiyan Village" in the mountains, living in seclusion in the mountains and devoting himself to practice. With the deepening of his skill, he realized the true meaning of "practicing martial arts in the front mountain and practicing Buddhism in the back mountain" He found that Shiyan Village was a place to practice martial arts, and the back mountain was Wudang. If you want to be immortal, you must move to Wudang. Go south to Wudang Mountain and become immortal. Before becoming an immortal, he often came to Shiyan village to practice and help the people, as evidenced by the ancestral temple. According to the survey, since the Qing Dynasty, there have been 4 temples and grottoes (caves) newly built, expanded and rebuilt, 5 stone tablets and 3 woodcut statues. Stories, legends and humanistic anecdotes in Jinsixia area are widely circulated, providing valuable human landscape resources for tourism.
