Introduction of scenic spots

Bantang hot spring

hot spring

Located at the foot of Tangshan in Chaohu Lake. "Chaohu Lake Records" records: "The mountains have Er Quan, one is cold and the other is warm." Because of the name of Bantang. Bantang Hot Spring has a long history.

As early as the Qin and Han Dynasties, hot springs were discovered and utilized here. According to historical records, the soup is sweet, and the more people drink it with boils. It is mainly used for treating liver and stomach deficiency, diarrhea, cough, chills and pains, and dermatoses. It was praised by the ancients as the land of nine blessings. Luo Yin, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote a poem after visiting Bantang Hot Springs: "Drinking fish knows how cold it is, and people know how cold it is." Hot springs spew all the year round, and the water temperature is kept above 60℃, and the highest can reach 80℃. The spring water is clear, colorless and transparent, and contains more than 30 active elements. The hot air from the hot spring, like a wisp of smoke, lingers on the winding mountain road.

Zhongmiao

Zhongmiao

Known as "the first scenic spot in the lake and sky", the middle temple stands on the rocks named Phoenix Terrace on the north bank of Chaohu Lake. The temple was built in the Tang Dynasty and has been built frequently since then. Perched on the top of the Rocky Mountain, surrounded by water on three sides, the balcony is magnificent and quite imposing. In the Ming Dynasty, Chu Cai Liang wrote "The Temple in China", in which he said, "There are tall buildings all around the lake, and the setting sun only leans back. Swallowed the fall of Wu Chu and Qian Fan, and the shadow moved to the Milky Way for five nights. " The temple is a pure wooden structure, shaped like a quadrangle, exquisite and chic. Climbing the stairs and leaning against the railing, the smoke is vast and the scenery is strange and spectacular. In the south of Zhongmiao overlooking Chaohu Lake, there is an island in the lake, namely Laoshan Mountain. From a distance, Laoshan Mountain looks like a doddering woman, staring at the two mountains on the surging lake. People say that this is the legend of "the fall of Chaohu Lake" and "becoming a lake overnight". The legendary charming woman is looking at her son. My son missed the time and failed to escape because he told his neighbor the news that he was trapped in the lake. Jiaopo also took off her shoes and ran away because she wanted to save her son. So there is a shoe mountain not far from the south of Laoshan Mountain. In memory of Jiao Po, the Notre Dame Temple was built on Laoshan Mountain. "The peak is green as a bun, and the column stands in the middle." There are three Jiufeng Mountains on the island, with a total area of 1.300 mu and the highest elevation of 1.04 meters. On the island, there are many pines and cypresses, flowers and willows set each other off, fruit trees form forests, and the seasons are fragrant. At the top of Laoshan Mountain stands the Laoshan Tower. According to the records of Chaohu Lake, this tower was built in the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty, but the project stopped when it reached the third floor. During the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, Li Hongzhang, a leader of the Westernization School and a native of Hefei, proposed a continuation project, and Li Hongzhang inscribed the stone-carved "Laoshan Tower Monument". The tower is 5 1 m high, with 7 floors in total. The tower foundation and tower body are all made of blue bricks. The tower is octagonal with upturned cornices and beautiful shapes. Each floor of the tower wall is decorated with stone tablets, engraved with ancient poems and reliefs, and the knife work is exquisite. You can hover to the top of the tower and overlook Chaohu Lake through the window. Vast waves, sail weaving and distant mountains are like a dream, just like a picture of "when you leave Taoyuan Road, there is another sky in the middle".

To the south of Chaohu Lake, the peaks stand side by side, and the steep Yin Ping stretches on the shore of Chaohu Lake. Because there is a big stone on the mountain, white as silver and shaped like a vase, it is also called "silver bottle". Yin Pingfeng is 508 meters above sea level, which is the highest among all peaks. Climbing the mountain overlooks the whole lake. But when you see the blue waves in the distance, your eyes are boundless. A pulse of green hills, clouds wrapped in fog, like a fairyland. The nine peaks around Yin Pingfeng look like lions, and they are called Jiushi Mountain. The ancients called it "Nine Lions Holding Silver Bottles", hence the name Yin Ping. This karst cave formed by limestone dissolved in groundwater can accommodate thousands of people, and various stalactites are hung on the top of the cave. In the crevice of the cave cliff, there is a graceful Bai Mudan with sparse branches and leaves hovering out. In Grain Rain, peony blooms, white as silver, gorgeous and fragrant. There was an endless stream of people coming to watch.

Wei Zidong is located in the western Wei Zishan of Chaohu Lake. There are small trees all over the mountain, which are called love trees by local people. Couples who go to play often tie red ribbons on trees to show their loyalty. There is a purple berry cave, which is located halfway up the mountain. This cave is formed by the uplift of an underground river in the process of crustal movement, so the layers of stone walls in the cave are very clear under the impact of the underground river. The most wonderful thing is the "four musts" and "three musts" in the cave. The "four wonders" are the gutter, the zenith, the Cao Tian, the Yuluozhang, the Stone Goose Tube and the Tianwai Waterfall. The "three wonders" are the iron chain cold bridge, the double wells that open the sky and the long underground river. In addition, scenic spots such as Listening to the Tao in Longtan, Monkey Pilgrimage, Dragon Waterfall in Cave, Nine Dragon Wall, Stone Grape, Stone Pleated Skirt, Stone Needle, Stalagmite, Gourd Shouxing, Monkey Fishing for the Moon, and Bajie Looking in the Mirror, as well as the scenic spots left by Wang Qiao alchemy,

Wei Zi caves are different from ordinary caves. Weizi Cave is a corridor cave formed by perennial erosion of underground rivers. When the cave was formed, the water source may come from all directions, both surface water and groundwater. There is also a Wang Qiao Cave next to Weizi Cave, which is the only cliff grottoes in Anhui Province. All the statues in it have no heads, except a slightly larger one with a head. As for the reasons for the formation of the headless Buddha, no one has ever known.
