Dawangdong is naturally sitting in a Buddhist cave, full of kind-hearted Maitreya Buddhas smiling at tourists! According to legend, at the end of the Kaiyuan period in the Tang Dynasty, the Bodhisattva the Earth Treasure came to Jiuhua Mountain and was very happy to see the mountains in the distance, like lotus flowers. So she took a white dog mount, listened attentively and took pains to build it in Jiuhua Mountain. After the decline of the Tang Dynasty, during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, Yin Di Liu Chengyou, the last emperor of the later Han Dynasty, was called "the king of secondary excellence" by the people. He lost the battle and retreated to Qiupu, surrounded by mountains in front and pursuers behind. The situation is very critical. Just when Zhongyou Wang was at a loss, suddenly a white dog came running from Jiuhua Mountain. The sky thundered and lightning, and the white dog turned into a dragon, passing through Qingluo Mountain, leaving a big hole. Zhongyou Wang led his troops into the cave to avoid danger. When the pursuers saw the fairy dust in the cave, there were many dangers in the cave, and they were scared to retreat again and again. Legend has it that this white dog passing through the mountains is the mount of the earth treasure king. So Zhongyou Wang and his men were stationed here and lived for quite a long time, hence the name Dawangdong. Because it is a god beast who listens to sounds through mountains, Dawang Cave is also called a cave. The legend of "the white dog turned the dragon and went through the cave" is still widely circulated. At that time, there were many "King Temples" in Guichi City, including one at the entrance of the cave, which was not destroyed until the Cultural Revolution. According to expert research, the formation of Dawangdong has a history of more than 200 million years. It is due to the repeated movement waves of strata and the continuous downward flow of water from the cracks, which gradually expand and are connected by isolated caves, forming a huge cave formed by the underground river basin. Due to the quality of calcium carbonate, dissolved rocks are developing continuously, and underground wonders emerge as the times require. According to Chizhou County Records and Guichi County Records, Dawangdong has been discovered 1000 years ago, and Fujitsu, a famous poet in the Song Dynasty, has also been here and
He also wrote such a poem: "A thousand years of caves can't be opened, and the white clouds are lost because the jade farmers are waiting for me when they come back", which shows that Dawangdong at that time was already a wonder, which made the poets linger. However, the real exploration and development time of Dawangdong is 1985, and the official opening is 1987. In the same year, it was announced by Anhui Provincial People's Government as "the first batch of provincial-level scenic spots". "Welcome Hall". Legend has it that King Zhong You came here hungry and thirsty, and it was the dew dripping from the stalactites like palace lanterns that brought him a little coolness. After settling down, he named the main hall "Yingjia Hall" and ordered people to decorate it. This mural at the entrance of the cave was made by a skillful craftsman in the army. It's called "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea", but the pattern is not clear after a long time. Legend has it that whoever can distinguish the Eight Immortals in the painting can find his place in the mural-the Ninth Immortal. In fact, this mural was formed because the calcium in the water oozed from the cracks, met the carbon dioxide in the air and condensed on the stone wall. After King Zhong You came to the cave, he divided the whole cave into five areas. This is the first area, guarded by all the soldiers, and it is called "Galaxy Scenic Area". Look at the stone wall opposite. There is an ostrich standing on its head. It is performing a special program to welcome the distinguished guests. Nature's uncanny workmanship has created such a magnificent palace for us. Look at the stalactites hanging on it, just like slender fingers, so we call it "Thousand Fingers Forest". In this thousand-fingered forest, there lived a million-year-old scarab, a million-year-old jade cat and a sleeping elf. The cave walls are filled with smoke. This is a brewery. The foot soldiers used wild fruits on the mountain to make wine, and there were more people and less wine. How can they drink? The answer will be clear when you swim deep into the galaxy. This is a "acacia forest". This is a huge acacia tree. King Zhong You often comes to love acacia trees and touches their feelings. Tears couldn't help falling, causing all the soldiers to cry together. Yes, at that time, who would like to leave their homes and give up their loved ones? How happy we are now living in this peaceful era ... this "acacia forest" is watered with acacia tears, and some people's acacia tears are still dripping! Outside the cave in Fairy Valley, there is a strange "Li Lian Branch". The two branches of two trees grow together at a height of two meters from the ground, and there is no trace of docking. Probably the true love on earth touched God, so there will be such a masterpiece! You have seen Acacia Forest and Acacia Tears. If you are lucky, you will also hear Acacia Song. These stalactites can play a deep and touching sound of lovesickness. However, in order to protect this peculiar stalactite, it is stipulated that only national music masters can play it when they go through the formalities in the scenic spot. This is an ancient plank road. Geologically speaking, it is a groove formed by the impact and dissolution of water on rocks. While enjoying the "brewery", I left a question: how to drink with more people and less wine? This is a never-ending Jiuquan. Drinking this wine can increase children's wisdom, prolong the life span of the elderly, beautify women and make men successful. Please look at the top, which is the private seat of Dawangdong-dragon bed and dragon chair. It is also a tasting platform for kings. It has been said that the fragrance of wine floated far away from the cave, which attracted the iron tower Li Tianwang passing by the overpass to get down from the clouds and taste the wine of Dawangquan. As a result, he got drunk in Wolong bed and put his pagoda in the cave. Look, this is the "White Jade Town Demon Tower".
Go to Xiaotian prison. This Xiaotian prison is a branch of Dawang Cave, the entrance of which is a huge funnel that ordinary people can't enter. It is called "Xiaotian Prison" because King Zhong You used it as a place to hold prisoners and prisoners. This is a good vent, and the cool wind you feel blows in from here. Our scenic spot decided to open up a tourism adventure project here to further increase the fun of tourists and make full use of the tourism resources of Dawangdong.
I saw a very dangerous pass, called "Watergate Pass". This is the only way to the depths of the cave. The momentum of "one person's strength is above ten thousand people". This level played an important role in defending the core of the abode of fairies and immortals. After passing the water pass, we entered the second scenic spot-Yaochi Scenic Spot, which is the living area of the ladies and gentlemen of Zhongyou. This pheasant is used to call the police. The wives should be there.
Bathing and changing clothes here, not only let the golden rooster guard the crossing here, but also send angels to the military station to inquire about the truth and falsehood. This big tree looks like a phoenix pine in Jiuhua Mountain. The harem moved it here as its idol, attracting some admirers to become rats to worship here, one for the whole city and the other for the country. At that time, there must have been many stunning beauties here.
Unconsciously, I arrived at Guanghan Palace. "The Moon Palace is fortunate to have idle fields. Why not plant two plants in the middle?" . In fact, someone has planted osmanthus trees in this species for a long time. Looking up, it was a huge osmanthus tree. Here, WU GANG was holding a bouquet of osmanthus wine, so the great leader Chairman Mao wrote a poem, lamenting "Lonely Chang 'e Shu Guang Sleeves, WU GANG holding osmanthus wine". On the opposite stone wall is a natural karst mural named "Chang 'e Sleeve". Above it is the "immortal platform" Legend has it that the seven fairies stole the Southern Gate of Heaven from this platform to see fireworks and firewood. Therefore, they envy the freedom of the world very much, so they descended from here and married Yong Dong, a loyal and honest man, leaving a swan song-fairy match. In front of us is a natural karst mural, the main pattern is "Fly with me", on the left is "Qiupu mandarin fish", and on the right is "River stretches". This mural is also called "Fish and Stone Go Together". These karsts are naturally formed when the brittle and soft parts of limestone fall off and the solid parts remain in the long-term weathering process.
The third scenic spot-Yuan Xian scenic spot, this scenic spot is the active place of Anthracene, a minister of civil and military affairs loyal to the king. This is the beast that makes a hole through the mountain. It can see thousands of miles and listen to all directions. It is the mount of the bodhisattva, the king of earth treasure, and the most loyal partner of his old man. Now we come to Juxian Mountain Villa. This is a small hall for rest, and it was also the parliamentary hall of the king in those days. One of the most brilliant places in the abode of fairies and immortals-Lover Valley. There is a lover tree above the lover's valley, and there are lovers under the tree. They are all talking heart to heart. What's on this? It's a flat peach garden. The trunks of the three flat peaches here are tall and straight, and the branches and leaves are lush. Why not see the flat peaches? Little imagine, the Monkey King has been here.
The king hid the soldiers' cave-a place to hide weapons. This is a military secret.
Wash my hands of. Here is a folk song called "wash your hands of the golden basin, accompanied by good luck", which is the place where Zhongyou Wang used to wash his hands of the golden basin. Why did King Zhong You wash his hands with a golden basin? It is very dangerous to walk a long way. First of all, we must cross the "first line" and then "bend the waist rock". Everyone must meet carefully. After the first line of defense, now we have to cross the curved rock. As we all know here, when we get to the corner, we have to bend over and bow our heads. After crossing the curved rock, we may understand why the king has to wash his hands of it! Yes, where not to bend over in life? Suspension Bridge There is no bridge here, which is built for the convenience of tourists. This canyon enters the last pass of the Dragon Palace of the King, opposite the pass, which is "hole on hole, upstairs and downstairs". At that time, it was heavily guarded. This is a village. Leaders, this is the largest bridge in our abode of fairies and immortals, and it is called "Jinshui Bridge". It is the dividing point between Dragon Palace and Fairy Garden. Looking down from the bridge, the scenery on both sides has its own merits. There are strict barriers in Yuan Xian; This side of the Dragon Palace is magnificent. Please cross the Golden Bridge and enter the "Dragon Palace Scenic Area", the royal forbidden area.
Dragon Palace Scenic Area. There are two anchoring needles on it. There were three, and one was borrowed by the Monkey King, but it hasn't been returned yet, so there are only two left. There is a "Shenquan Waterfall" in front, so it is called "Spring" only because the source has not been found yet. This is one of the places where the landscape of Dawang Cave is different from other caves. Because in ordinary caves, waterfalls are rarely seen. This is the dragon flying above the divine spring, and this is its head, so where is its tail? This is called "the dragon sees the head but does not see the tail". This is "Longchi Shentian". Invite tourists up.
When you come here, it seems that there is no way to go, but as long as you cross the gorge, the more magical landscape is on it! A boulder with a strong ink smell on it, so we call it "ink stone". If you don't believe me, touch it with your hand.
Smell it again. It's the king's throne. Those treasures are invisible to us ordinary people. However, the elephant recognized it. It is the gatekeeper here, protecting the treasure. Look carefully, how did this leg break? Because of the lax protection of the treasure, he was regarded as "dereliction of duty" by the king, and his leg was cut off and punished. Then why is it still standing here? It is said that if you make a crime and make meritorious deeds, you can connect your legs. Maybe, the next time you come to see it, its legs will have been connected! Archipelago group, geographers believe that the formation of islands is that the crust folds and uplifts through stratigraphic movement. According to legend, in ancient times, Emperor Yan was a daughter playing by the sea, accidentally drowned in the sea, and later became a heartbroken bird. Moving stones and hitting mountains every day, trying to fill the sea, so there are so many islands. You see, there are many rare birds and animals in these pirates that deserve our study. Sea bears, seahorses, seals and sea frogs all came to the island. Are they here for sightseeing, or do they hate the sea for the unjust bird Jingwei? As we all know, many phenomena in nature are closely related to our human feelings.
Dragon Palace. This Dragon Palace is140m long, 50m wide and 40m high, with a total area of over 7,000 square meters. It is the largest hall and the essence of the whole abode of fairies and immortals. Look at the palace lanterns, bright as stars and colorful as night markets. Some people say that it is like the Su Causeway of the West Lake, and the blue light is like a weeping willow on the Su Causeway; Some people say that it is like the Bund in Shanghai, with lights like ships moored at the seaside. Some people say that it is like Guilin landscape, where mountains are in it and water turns around it; Look at the top of the palace. It has been occupied by Fei Long. The white dragon flies through the sky like the milky way in the sky, but it dances and is higher than the sky. Look at the Yunya Waterfall over there. How did this waterfall come into being? As we said before, there were three anchor needles in the Dragon Palace, one of which was borrowed by the Monkey King and has not been returned yet. As a result, the water poured for nine days and became this "waterfall over the cliff". As if to destroy this magnificent Dragon Palace, the Dragon King sent this aconite sea to prevent the disaster of flying water. It not only saved the Dragon Palace from danger, but also turned the waterfall into treasure. The Dragon Palace is filled with magical water, and the landscape is more magnificent. Looking at Yunyan Waterfall, I can't help but think of Li Bai's poem describing Lushan Waterfall, "Rizhao incense burner gives birth to purple smoke." Looking at the waterfall in Qianchuan and flying directly to thousands of feet, it is suspected that the Milky Way has fallen for nine days. " The mountains and rivers described by poets are just like the mountains and rivers described by painters, and Wan Li has a scale. Li Bai once envied You Qiupu, saying that he expressed his feelings for Qiu Pu by writing about the scenery of Lushan Mountain. ! Haihua, this is sea coral and ganoderma lucidum. It is said that these are the treasures of the king. In order to prevent thieves, Zhang, a fairy from the upper bound, was sent to guard. Look, that's a picture on it. First, please look up. In this Phoenix Hall, there is a huge lava rock pine. According to cave experts, lava rock pine with such a large size and image is still rare in caves in China. Look at the west side of the turquoise. It's dusk, and the sunset reflects the sky, so it's called "Gu Song Sunset". Standing under this ancient pine tree, we seem to see hundreds of birds perching in the house, and we seem to hear the sound of warblers turning into cicadas. Those clouds are floating in the blue sky, bringing our hearts into the realm of the most beautiful chutian. Take a photo at Yutan. Li Bai wrote in Qiupu's song: "Take a look at Yaochi, brush the trees in Mao Qi, stay in the cold moon at night, and get up in the morning." It may be more appropriate to say that the poet described this situation. Because the unique sound of this half-moon jade mirror pool is next to the phoenix nest, just to take pictures of the phoenix. The windows here are bright and clean, and the water is blue. If Phoenix does not perform her duties at this time, but goes back to the palace to rest, we can see the beautiful shadow of her national talent from this jade mirror. "The fairy greets the phoenix pavilion." There are many immortals gathered there. Look, they are sitting and lying, laughing and thinking, dancing and singing. Different shapes, lifelike. The Monkey King, Tang Priest, Master and Apprentice also came here. You see, this white seems to be hungry and is coming towards the river, ready to drink water to satisfy his hunger. There are pig eight quit on it. You see, he's still a leopard cannot change his spots, and he's peeking at the phoenix again. The Monkey King had expected that the sand monk would be sent to change an old sheep to guard here. Now let's take a good look at the phoenix goddess. Look, he is bathed in sunshine and covered with rosy clouds, standing on the Jinshan Mountain and singing loudly, reporting good luck to the people. This is really a lucky moment! The ancients said that the golden hill in Feng Ming comes once in a blue moon. Today, when we are lucky enough to meet such good luck, we are really blessed and happy! That's a gift from Guanyin. Some people say that it should be changed to Guanyin hug. Family planning is good, and a Guanyin hug is enough. Some people say it's like a phoenix chasing its mother, while others say it's like a ginseng. There is also a legend here: When the Tang Priest was passing by to learn Buddhist scriptures in the West, disciple the Monkey King said, "Master, ginseng on the Phoenix Mountain is a treasure. If you eat it, you will become immortal and live forever. " When Tang Priest saw it, where did it come from? It was a child playing in a tree, which scared him to close his eyes and walked away with "Amitabha, sin, sin", so the Monkey King had to give up. Above is the phoenix nest. He has a beautiful and peculiar shape, and is richly decorated inside and outside. It has a multi-level structure and wonderful camouflage, which is both tight and mysterious. Outside the nest, it looks like a bunch of grapes, hanging down like pearls, dripping with fresh water, which is a symbol that birds feed on fruit. In particular, the empress dowager of Bird Country is full of fruits, such as pearls surrounded by green shade, which shows her special status and wealth of Bird Country. The ancients said that the phoenix does not fall into a land without treasure, and it really is a big golden mountain here. Under the reflection of colorful lights, it shines brightly. Above is a Joan tree, which is 300 meters high. We can't see its branches and leaves, only part of it. Leaders, please look at the colored beads hanging on the beams of phoenix temple. It looks like a clam shell outside. If it's just a pearl mussel, why should it be treasured there? This is the pearl crown worn by the Phoenix Queen. Phoenix, as the queen of bird country, naturally wears this kind of jewelry. However, this pearl crown is unusual. Once, when Nu Wa tried to mend the sky, she took it to retrieve an extra black stone. You see, she firmly put the black stone in the temple wall, and if the heaven is damaged in the future, she will take it out and use it, so don't bother Nu Wa any more. Phoenix believes that the sky is intact and the world is still peaceful, so her love for the people is admired by all.
Watch the scenery of the valley 700 meters away from the cave. Please look up when you leave this hole. This is a small overpass. The bridge is on the mountain, the mountain is under the bridge, the hole is under the bridge, and the bridge is full of holes. This huge Tian Tong funnel near the bridge is as high as 100 meter, which is daunting! People call it "the worse gate". This rainbow waterfall is a beautiful landscape, which combines scenes and rapid changes. This is a masterpiece of nature. Every time the rising sun flies into the sky, rainbows fly out, colorful and beautiful. It is not only beautiful, but also gentle and affectionate. People move rainbows, and rainbows follow people's wishes. Affectionate and interesting. Leaders, please follow me up the ladder a hundred times now.
When I came here, I saw a bright future, and my eyes were cheerful. Surrounded by mountains, I embraced this small basin, which was very hidden and quiet. It's like a paradise. Please raise your eyes and look around. There are Leishan Mountain in the south and Luoqing Peak in the north. Because the whole mountain looks like a blue snail, under Luo Qingfeng is the cave of the king we just visited. Now please enter the 500-meter fairy valley, which is another world. It will arouse your childlike innocence and let you enjoy the wild interest in the mountains. This canyon, covered with shade, has four seasons like spring and a hundred birds contend.
Singing songs, accompanied by streams. This mountain road in the valley is far away from the places where wild animals haunt, and now you often meet roe deer and rabbits. Next to this, there is a connected tree. Such a strange lianzhi tree is rare in major scenic spots. This is a listening bridge with a small bridge and flowing water. We can rest here. Listen, the water sounds like a piano, but we can only hear the melodious sound of the piano, but we can't see where the pianist is. You don't know, the pianist is the "piano waterfall" on the pillow stone. This waterfall rolls down from the big stone all the year round, making it smooth and flat, like a big pillow. So we named it "pillow stone". In front is a magnificent natural bridge. This overpass is due to the uplift of the earth's crust, the strong erosion and expansion of underground rivers, the collapse of the roof and wall, more and more sinkholes and more and more dissolved skylights, which caused the roof above the overpass to collapse and become an open river, forming narrow karst peaks and valleys below the overpass today. This huge natural bridge was left after the collapse of a huge cave. This large overpass is 52 meters high, 64 meters wide and 73 meters deep. According to experts, such a magnificent Tiansheng Bridge is rare in China. He Jingzhi, a famous contemporary poet, named it Tianqiao, and Ai Qing, an old poet who is famous at home and abroad, gladly named it "The Wonder of the South of the Yangtze River". Praise for the old poet is not excessive. You see, the cliffs outside the bridge are like axes and knives, and the momentum is extraordinary. In the cliffs, there are actually many vigorous trees with green branches and leaves, and both sides of the bridge are shrouded in darkness, as if to hide this huge overpass. When you came here, you didn't know there was a spacious road on the bridge. You can drive and walk on the bridge. You don't know where the bridge fell, but you don't know where the road is. Stone elephant, wait here and welcome the distinguished guests. The stone lions, stone men and stone horses across the street seem to welcome everyone. The big stone tables and armchairs over there were once prepared by the gods for the king to watch the overpass, but today, they have become natural viewing seats for leaders. The cave in the west is called the "Western Tianmen". Strange skylight. Now let's walk out of this big overpass and come to Tianqiao Square. This is a small bamboo pavilion carefully built for tourists in our scenic spot. Please have a rest here and enjoy the scenery outside the cave!
Under the bridge of "Crossing the Immortal Bridge" is the Immortal River. The source of this river is the high mountain in front of us, named "Xiantaojian", which is 593 meters above sea level and is the highest point of our scenic spot. Speaking of this natural sitting Buddha, we have to mention another great wonder of Jiuhua Mountain Scenic Area-the natural reclining Buddha. He was on his back, his eyelashes were visible, his nose was towering, his face was full, his chin was round, his Adam's apple was prominent, his whole face was charitable and amiable, and his mouth was smiling, as if he were whispering Buddhist scriptures of all beings. These two natural giant buddhas, one lying, one sitting and one standing, one east and one west, echo each other from a distance, guarding the people on this spiritual land, which makes people sigh that "Jiuhua has Buddha scenery everywhere"!
