Mount Putuo scenic spot grand view

Celebrities who visited Mount Putuo in past dynasties have praised "Eight Putuo Scenes", "Ten Putuo Scenes", "Twelve Putuo Scenes" and "Sixteen Putuo Scenes" according to their own impressions. Tu Long, a writer in the Ming Dynasty, wrote poems about "Twelve Scenes of Putuo": the spring dawn in Meiwan, the mist in Chashan, the tidal sound in ancient caves, the cold blue in Guitan, the clear Vatican in Damen, the golden sands in Qianbu, the lotus crossing in the afternoon, the fragrance of incense burners, the lights in Luojia, the tea smoke in the quiet room, the morning light in Pantuo and the rainbow in the bowl. There are twelve scenes in the Book of Mount Putuo compiled by Ban Qiu in the Qing Dynasty, namely, the sacred monument of the dwarf aunt, the famous mountain of Buddha's finger, the tidal sound of two caves, the golden sands of a thousand steps, the cloud of Huading, the well of Meicenxian, the rising sun, the sunset of Pantuo, the cave of Fahualing, the rolling snow, the bell of pagoda and the jathyapple of Lianchi. Lotus Ocean, namely Lotus Ocean, is located between Zhoushan Island and Putuo Mountain, with the Yellow Sea in the north and Pushui Waterway in the south. The name of the ocean comes from a legend. The Japanese wanted to welcome the Guanyin statue back to China, but the iron lotus born in the sea prevented it from crossing.  Kangxi's "Dinghai County Records" quoted Putuo Zhi as saying: "In the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Houyi people paid tribute and wanted to carry it to their own country, but the pig iron lotus at sea could not be returned by ship, hence the name."

A fisherman once sang: "there is a big storm in the lotus sea, and there is a lotus in the windless sea." A lotus flower blooms for ten miles, and its petals are as sharp as spikes. " Chunxiao in the bay refers to the early spring scenery of Putuo Mountain, also called Mei Cen, because Xishan Bay is Meiwan, also called Qianwan. It is said that there are many wild plums here, and there are also many nuns who are good at raising plum blossoms. In the early spring, when spring returns to the earth, Shan Ye is covered with spring scenery, and the fragrance is full of valleys, and the green hills and trees reflect a little red spots. It is really a beautiful scene. It was once called "floating on the sea".

Whenever there is a clear and windless day, standing on the top of the Western Hills and overlooking the lotus ocean, I can only see fishing boats contending, seagulls and birds gathering, the sea is choppy and sparkling, and the green hills outside the mountains are stacked on top of each other. full of green is beautiful. If it is on a moonlit night, the branches are fine and the islands and reefs are hazy and fragrant, which is even more intoxicating. "Pantuo Zhao Xi" refers to the night scene around Pantuo Stone.

Pan Tuoshi can be seen not far from the westbound Mei Fuan. Pantuo stone is made up of two stones, with a wide bottom and a sharp top and a circumference of more than 20 meters. The stone protruding in the middle is the stone above, which is called rock. At the top of a boulder, there is a flat-bottomed tip, 3 meters high and nearly 7 meters wide. It is a diamond, and it is called Tuo. The gap between the upper and lower stones is like a line, bright and unconnected, like a stone hanging on a stone.

Whenever the sun goes down, the stone is covered with gold and shines brilliantly. If people can climb to the top of the stone and look around the mountains and seas at this time, they will see the sky in Wang Yang, and the scenery is magnificent. "Pantuo Zhao Xi" is one of the wonders of Mount Putuo. "Hai Yin" is the samadhi name acquired by the Buddha. For example, the sea can gather all the rivers, and the Zhan Ran, the Buddha's wisdom sea, can print all the laws of the universe. Hai Yin Pond covers an area of about 15 mu and was built in the Ming Dynasty. There are three stone bridges on the pool, and the middle one is called Pingqiao. It is connected to the Zhongshan Gate of Fusang Temple in the north, with an octagonal pavilion in the middle and a royal tablet pavilion in the south. Imperial Monument Pavilion, Octagonal Pavilion and Fusang Temple are built on the same central axis. The ancient stone bridge lies across the water waves, and an ancient temple stands in the distance. It is beautiful, just like a fairyland on earth.

The lotus pond is surrounded by mountains on three sides and ancient camphor trees. The water in the pond is accumulated by mountain springs and is as clear as jade. In midsummer, lotus leaves and ridges in the pool are graceful, reflecting the reflections of ancient trees, Fanyu, arch bridges and pagodas, forming a very beautiful picture. Come here on a summer moonlit night, or it's calm, the sky is high and the clouds are light, and the moon reflects the pool; Or the breeze is slow, and the lotus fragrance attacks people.

"Lianchi jathyapple" refers to the moonlight in Hai Yin Pool. Hayindy is located in front of Fossett Mountain, also known as "release pond" and "lotus pond". It turned out to be a pond where Buddhists put flowers, and later lotus flowers were planted, which was called "lotus pond". The cave is semi-submerged in seawater, with a depth of about 30 meters, and the depth from the cliff to the bottom of the cave is about 10 meter. The coast here is winding, with rugged rocks and rugged rocks. The bottom of the cave is open to the sea, and there are two gaps at the top, which are called skylights.

The tidal hole faces the sea and opens wide. Beaten by the waves day and night, the tide rushed into the mouth of the cave, like a dragon, and the sound was like thunder. In the face of strong wind, the water splashed and the water went straight to the "skylight". If it is sunny, the colorful neon in the cave is illusory and sighs into wonders.

It is reported that during the Song and Yuan Dynasties, pilgrims who came to Putuo for pilgrimage often asked the Bodhisattva to bless them in front of Yin Chao Cave. In the future, I will go to Brahma Cave to ask Master Guanyin to appear. Pilgrims often jump off cliffs and die, so as to die in the western paradise. So Dinghai County ordered Xiang Ying to build a pavilion on the shore, and wrote a book "Jie" to erect a monument, forbidding abstinence. After crossing Xianjing and looking east at Babaoling, I saw a rock leaning like an elephant on the mountain. I stretched my nose and looked up at the East China Sea. This is the elephant stone. On top of the rock, there is a rabbit rock as docile as a rabbit. On the east coast of Xiang Yan, there is a natural cave, not more than ten feet wide, but deep and secluded. The huge stones outside the cave are uneven and piled up into a sea of people. The mouth of the cave faces east, holding a hundred steps of sand from left to right and a thousand steps of sand. Whenever the weather is fine, I watch the sunrise and sea view here in the morning. The scenery is magnificent and breathtaking. The rising sun "is like a huge wheel, red as sand, and suddenly rises from the bottom of the sea, dazzling the sea and scattering it." Therefore, people named it "Chaoyangdong" and listed "Chaoyang Sunrise" as one of the twelve scenic spots in Putuo. Mount Putuo watches the sunrise, headed by Chaoyang Cave.

Chaoyangdong is also a good place to listen to the tide. According to the book records, the Chaoyang Temple on the original Chaoyang Cave has a lot of fun under it, such as thousands of kinds of music playing symphonically. Tanxia Pavilion, also known as Chaoyang Pavilion, was built on the left platform of Chaoyang Cave, facing the cliff and facing the sea. Whenever the sun rises, the sun shines and the scenery is beautiful. Legend has it that the sound of this tidal wave is unusually loud, and there is a short story that the snake king unconditionally lent the mountain to the Bodhisattva to open the Dojo, but he asked the Bodhisattva to set a date for its return so that it could be returned to its original owner. The Bodhisattva said to the Snake King, "On that day, the whole mountain could not hear my disciple knocking on the wooden fish; Or the tide stops before a thousand steps of sand, and then I will return the mountain to you. " Mount Putuo has developed into three jungles, more than 80 temples and temples, and 160 Mao Peng, so the sound of wooden fish will never break every day, especially the sound of the tide will never break! The most spectacular tidal waves worship the waves. No matter what wind you have in the southeast and northwest, the tidal surge carrying a thousand steps of sand will never turn into waves with the wind, but it will still rush to this shore in waves. Some people say, "This is the tide worshipping the waves." Ruthless tide also knows how to worship avalokitesvara. If there is a strong wind, a thousand steps of sand waves, if thunder clouds surge, it is dazzling and deafening, and if a waterfall comes, it will suddenly change and become indescribable. When encountering strong winds and waves, the author often rushes to the seaside alone and stands on a thousand layers of sand to enjoy this rare sea wonder. The state of mind and body can't be described in words.

Thousands of steps of golden sands, the sand color is like gold, pure and soft, wide and gentle, just like a golden seal, walking on it, not falling in. Here the waves beat against the coast day and night, and the sound of the waves is endless. The tide frolics on the beach, coming like a waterfall and stopping like resistance. Every time there is a big wind and waves, it is shocking that thunder turns into snow. When you are wandering, it is strange, unusual, and the strange landscape is indescribable. The front Sasha Vujacic is often favored by swimmers because of its gentle slope, wide sea surface and no rocks in the water. For tourists who come in summer, don't miss this sight, or walk barefoot on it after sightseeing and let the waves caress your feet. It is more interesting than anyone who has never tried it.

Thousands of steps of Jinsha is not only beautiful during the day, but also at the moonlit night, Chanjuan moves slowly, the breeze blows gently and the waves sound from time to time, and its quiet scenery is more poetic. Therefore, some people once called it Mount Putuo and the magnificent sunrise. At Putuo Mountain, you can hear the tidal sound of thousands of sands at night. The sound is like thunder, deafening, and Malik is galloping, which is millions of times louder than the sound mentioned in Ouyang Xiu's Ode to Autumn Sound. This magnificent tidal sound is the first time I have heard it since I was born. The proverb of Hokkekyo Pumenpin says, "Sanskrit sounds are better than those of other worlds." Guangxi Peak is located in the southeast of Foding Mountain, a "Lotus Stone Flower", also known as "Stone House". From a distance, among the green trees, there are mountains and rocks, which are beautiful, like lotus flowers and snow-capped peaks.

"Xue Ji, Guangxi" refers to the scenery behind the snow in Guifeng, one of the twelve major landscapes in Putuo. It seldom snows in Putuo Mountain, and winter is quiet and wonderful. But if you are lucky, catch up with a heavy snow, climb Foding Mountain and overlook Guangxi Peak. Like jade carving, wrapped in white, blowing open the petals of ten thousand pear trees, the mountains are mixed, and the sea is low and even frozen clouds. At this time, you will feel that your heart is clear and clean, just like being in the pure land of pure white Buddha.

It is not easy to see the snow scene of Guangxi Peak, but Putuo is a Buddhist holy land, and Buddhist disciples often come and go, or often stay in retreat, so it is destiny takes a hand to appreciate the "Snow Ji" scenery of Putuo Mountain. Chashan is located behind Foding Mountain, stretching from north to west. The mountains and rivers are vast and there are many streams. And every time before sunrise, the tea forest is filled with mist, sometimes like silk, sometimes like marriage. At this moment, if you are in it, it is like dreaming, which makes people daydream infinitely.

In Guputuo Mountain, there are no residents, and the monks in the mountain grow their own grain. Growing tea is an important task for monks living in the mountains. Every picking season, all the monks come out together, and a busy scene (children's poem) immediately appears on the mountain. "Shan Ye strives to pick fragrant buds and push the fog through the clouds to get credit."

The tea in Putuo Chashan is called "Cloud and Fog Buddha Tea", because this kind of tea tree is mostly planted by monks, so monks talk about "Chashan Fog" with a unique flavor. Guanyin cave is located 7 kilometers northwest of the city. There are many mountain landscapes in the scenic area, including Zan Longshan, Jiguan Mountain, Guanyindong Mountain, Pingdingshan, Hongshi Mountain and Erlangdong Mountain, with dense forests and majestic mountains.

Guanyin Cave in Putuo Mountain was originally named Mother Mountain. Later, because Yelubi, the prince of Liao country, had been hiding in this mountain, his mother ordered him to change the name of the mountain to Putuo Mountain, the name of the cave was Guanyin Cave, and the name of the temple built in front of the cave was Zizhu Temple. For many years, because Guanyin Cave is so famous, people have forgotten the original name of Putuo Mountain and named it Guanyin Cave Mountain, which has been passed down to this day. The temple was built in the mountains and was deaf after several repairs. In the Yuan Dynasty, it was named Shitang Daoyuan. In the second year of the Ming Dynasty (AD 1437), the ancient temple was rebuilt and renamed Putuo Temple. After several expansions in the Qing Dynasty, Guanyin Cave gradually flourished.

Guanyin Cave, which is a collection of strange caves, wonderful buddhas, holy springs and precious trees, is a famous tourist attraction in China and one of the top 50 scenic spots in Liaoning.

At the western foot of Meiling Mountain in Putuo Mountain. The cave is like a huge stone room, naturally generated. There is a stone pillar hanging from the ground in the cave, and Guanyin statue is carved on the cave and on the stone wall around the cave. A buddhist nun was built next to the cave. It was a thatched awning in Wanli period of Ming Dynasty, and it became buddhist nun in Kangxi period of Qing Dynasty. It was built in Daoguang, Guangxu and Xuantong years. 1983, the main hall was carved into Guanyin statue by Zhejiang Academy of Fine Arts, with kind eyes and solemn and wonderful image. Behind the cave, trees are shaded and boulders are piled up, and the words "stone reappearance" are written on the book. It was built in the 40th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (16 12) and expanded many times during the Kangxi period. The Great Compassion Pavilion in the middle of buddhist nun used to be a place where monks collected antiques and books, and celebrities and bachelors often went to watch it. After 1960, it was used as a private house and is still being repaired. There is a "true breath spring" in buddhist nun. Shi Hao, a writer in the Song Dynasty, wrote a stone tablet, which is now abandoned and still inhabited. It is the oldest stone tablet in Putuo Mountain. On the right side of Baihua Temple, the inscription on the seawall built during the Wanli period was also found on Miaosolemn Road.
