Today, I will take you to visit Wudang Mountain. Let's enjoy the beautiful natural scenery and rich Taoist culture there.
Wudang Mountain is located in danjiangkou city, Hubei Province. Danjiangkou reservoir, facing the rippling blue waves, is backed by the vast Shennongjia forest area of more than 400 kilometers. The scenery here is beautiful, and the four seasons are different: flowers bloom in spring, mountains are green in summer, golden osmanthus is fragrant in autumn, and snow is covered in winter. No matter when we come, we can appreciate its beauty. As the old saying goes, "There are famous mountains and great buddhas in the world", but Wudang Mountain is dominated by Taoism. Legend has it that the Jinding of Wudang Mountain was originally the residence of Infinite Buddha. Later, Emperor Zhenwu cultivated immortals and traveled here. He saw that there were many peaks here, and the main peak, Tianzhu Peak, was towering into the sky, and 72 peaks around it bowed to the ground, forming a spectacle of "72 peaks against the top". Zhenwu Emperor took a fancy to this treasure, so he went to Tianzhu Peak to ask the Infinite Buddha to borrow the land and proposed to borrow only eight steps. The boundless Buddha saw that he didn't want much, so he agreed. I didn't expect Zhenwu Emperor to have unlimited power. He took eight steps from the top of Tianzhu Peak, one step 100 Li. Eight steps actually occupied the whole Wudang, thus obtaining the right of permanent residence, and Wudang Mountain became the activity place of Taoism.
Wudang Taoist Temple was founded in Zhenguan period of Tang Dynasty and reached its peak in Yongle period of Ming Dynasty. The buildings here make full use of nature and adopt the unified layout of royal buildings, which embodies the excellent tradition of China's ancient architectural art and was listed as a world heritage in 1994, becoming a treasure of the world. Judy, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, admired Wudang Taoism, mobilized more than 300,000 military and civilian craftsmen to build large-scale buildings here, and built 33 large-scale building communities in more than ten years according to the story of Taoist "Tian Xuan God" practicing martial arts. Since ancient times, the construction route has been from Zhou Jun to Tianzhu Peak, stretching for 40 Li, covering an area of1600,000 square meters, and there are more than 20,000 temples in Antang. He came to worship the northern god Zhenwu and protect him, the emperor who rose up in the north and seized the throne. It is said that the tall figure, round face and wholesale barefoot image of Zhenwu Emperor are all shaped according to the image of Yongle Emperor. Therefore, there is a saying among the people that "the real warrior is the God of Yongle". Wudang Mountain has become a famous Taoist mountain in China, attracting tourists and pilgrims from all over the world to visit and worship everywhere.
Besides, it is not only a Taoist incense resort, but also the hometown of wudang boxing. There has always been a saying in China Wulin that "Shaolin is north and Wudang is south". Many people are the prophet wudang boxing and don't know Wudang Mountain. According to legend, the founder of wudang boxing is Zhang Sanfeng, a famous Taoist. I think friends who like martial arts may have learned about it through novels. It is said that when he was practicing here, he saw the scene of cranes fighting with snakes and was inspired to realize the thirteen forms of Tai Chi, so he was honored as the founder of Wu Tangmen.
Having said that, I think everyone can't wait. Now we have reached the foot of Wudang Mountain. Please get off with your luggage and start our pilgrimage. ……
Now the green glazed tile hall in front of us is Zixiao Palace. Because the hills around this place naturally formed two treasure chairs with dragons and pearls, Emperor Yongle named this place "Ziyun Blessed Land". In the shrine of Sumitomo, a stone carving in the temple, there are statues of Zhenwu gods and statues of civil and military immortals dedicated to the elderly, middle-aged and young people. They have different shapes and are lifelike, which are the artistic treasures of China in the Ming Dynasty. The Chinese fir standing on my right hand is said to have suddenly flown from afar, so it is called Feilai Chinese fir. It is said that tapping lightly at one end of Chinese fir can make a crisp sound at the other end, so it is also called "Xiangling Mountain". As for why it flew here, I think it may also be attracted by the beauty and fame here. ……
There are 36 rocks in Wudang Mountain. Now we come to Nanyan, which is considered to be the most beautiful of the 36 rocks. Wudang Mountain's natural landscape and exquisite architecture are integrated, which can be fully reflected here. This stone temple was built on a cliff, built in the Yuan Dynasty, and there is a carved dragon Liang Shi beside the cliff. Liang Shi hung in the air and went out. 9 meters, only 30 centimeters wide. A dragon is carved on it, and a censer is carved on the top of the faucet, which is the famous "dragon head incense". In the past, some pilgrims risked their lives to burn dragon head incense to show their piety, which showed their deep belief in Taoism. To be on the safe side, if we all want to make a wish and pray, we can go somewhere else. ……
After some efforts, we finally climbed the main peak Tianzhu Peak. Tianzhu Peak is 16 12 meters above sea level, and is known as "a pillar of the sky". Standing here, you can clearly see the spectacular scene of "seventy-two peaks against the big top". The Golden Hall on the top of Tianzhu Peak is the Golden Hall. Jindian is the largest cast steel gold medal hall in China, which was built in the 14th year of Yongle. There is not a nail in the construction of the whole Golden Temple, and it is all good luck to go up the mountain. The socket is very tight and seems to be integrated. You see, the ever-burning lamp here is said to never go out, so the top of the mountain is empty and windy. Why won't it be blown out by the wind? It is said that it is because of this "shelter fairy bead" on the algae well. According to legend, this fairy bead can keep the mountain wind from blowing into the temple, thus ensuring that the magic lamp is bright for a long time. In fact, the real reason why the magic lamp is bright is that all the temples are cast with precision, which can change the wind direction, indicating that the wisdom and skills of the ancient working people in China are highly replicated. It has been built for more than 500 years, and it is still as brilliant as ever. It is a rare treasure of ancient architecture and casting technology in China.
All right, I'll leave the rest to you. You can taste the wonderful architecture and beautiful scenery here. I'll see you at four.
Good times always make people feel short, so our trip to Wudang Mountain is over. Thank you very much for your support and cooperation in my work. Please criticize and correct what I did badly. I hope we can meet again in the future. Finally, I wish you good health and all the best. Goodbye.
