What is Zhoushan Guanyin?

Guanyin Mountain is the main mountain range of Qushan Island in Daishan County, Zhoushan City, Zhejiang Province, the hometown of Penglai in the East China Sea. Legend has it that the Monkey King, who made a scene in the Heavenly Palace, after 7749 days of exercise in the furnace of Taishang Laojun, jumped out of the furnace cover that Taishang Laojun had just opened and knocked down Taishang Laojun. The jade pot in the old man's hand fell from the sky and fell into the ocean of the East China Sea, becoming a beautiful scenery of the East China Sea, such as Peng pot, Fang pot and Ying pot. This fairyland Dongxiang is Qushan Island where Guanyin Mountain is located.

The island is exactly what is said in "Study in Qionglin": "Penglai is weak in water, and flying immortals can cross it; The square pot is round and is where the gods live. " The ancient book records that "Penglai is an island in the sea, and the four Zhou Haishui are flooded, as high as a pot, but the flying fairy can reach it." It is a vivid portrayal of Foshan, a sea fairy island and Qushan island.

Guanyin Mountain is located in the southwest of Qushan Island. Its southwest foothills are connected with the sea, and its northeast foothills are connected with the osmanthus basin on the island. It is 7.5 miles in vertical and horizontal, with a total area of about 4 square kilometers. It is quite magnificent, rising from the ground and crossing the sea. Guanyin Mountain is 34 nautical miles away from Putuo Mountain, one of the four major Buddhist resorts in China, and is known as "Buddha Sister" and "the second Buddhist country in the sea". Its north is 23 nautical miles away from the beach of Shengsiji Lake, which is located between Shengsi Island and Putuo Mountain. It can be said that it is the middle hub of the seascape Buddha country, with both the scenic spots of Haixian Island and the scenic spots of Haitian Buddha country.

Guanyin Mountain Scenic Area is located in Guanyin Mountain on Qushan Island, which is the highest peak in Daishan County, with an altitude of 3 14 meters and 20 nautical miles from Daishan Island. According to legend, Guanyin Bodhisattva in Putuo Mountain, a Buddhist holy place, set up a Dojo on Guanyin Mountain in Qushan for three years before going to Putuo Mountain for practice, hence the name Guanyin Mountain. Guanyin Mountain, with towering peaks and steep mountains, is surrounded by mountains and has several peaks like lotus flowers, covering an area of about 4 square kilometers. The highest place is Tiandeng Mountain, with broad vision and blue sky and blue sea. The scenic environment is quiet, warm as spring in winter and cool as autumn in summer. There are often clouds on the top of the mountain, which are looming, sometimes dense and sometimes light. Therefore, the scenic spot named "Guanyin Driving Fog" is mainly centered on Guanyin Mountain, and consists of three temples on Guanyin Mountain, a white stone tower on the floor of 1 1, a Samsung international lighthouse and a beach. There are two roads leading to this area. One is a highway, which leads directly from the pier to the top of the mountain. The other is a hiking route, which also leads to the top of the mountain. At present, the traffic in and out of the island is also very convenient, and routes to Daishan Island, Dinghai, Ningbo and Shengsi have been opened. The theme of the scenic spot is: a summer resort with Buddhist culture as the background and mountain scenery and sea view as the foil.

There are three temples on the mountain, namely Hongfu Temple (Guangji Upper Temple), Puqing Temple (Guangji Middle Temple) and Yin Hong Temple (Guangji Xia Ji Temple). Among them, Puqing Temple is the most magnificent, with a building area of 1, 20 1 square meter. The main hall is 9 meters high, with blue tiles and cornices, carved beams and painted buildings. The Guanyin statue in the main hall is 6 meters high, and 36 Guanyin heads on both sides are all marble. Thousands of jade buddhas carved from white marble in the Thousand Buddha Hall, with three walls and eight floors, are crystal clear and beautifully carved, which can be called art treasures.

There are three lanes on the mountain, winding roads and buses to pick up passengers. A mountain road made of stone in southwest China twists and turns between green forests and stone bushes, commonly known as eighteen bays. There are gurgling streams and strange stones on the roadside. Visitors to Guanyin Mountain love to climb this road.

At present, Qushan Town has developed Guanyin Mountain, "Ancient Temple Fanyin" and other scenic spots, which are thousands of meters in length and breadth and are attracting more and more tourists' attention. There is still a gap compared with Mount Putuo. It is suggested to add temples and plant trees. There were Temple East Pavilion in the Tang Dynasty, Temple Ancestral Seal in the Northern Song Dynasty and Temple Huayun in the Southern Song Dynasty. It cannot be tested, but it can be built. If there is a clearing under the tower, if there is a clearing at the foot of the mountain, if there is a clearing on the mountainside. In the Qing Dynasty, three temples and three pagodas could be built to improve the quality of tourism.
