What is there to play in Wuquanshan Park in Lanzhou?

Wuquan Mountain is a famous scenic spot in Lanzhou. During the Tang and Song Dynasties, there was a temple here, which was later destroyed by fire. At present, there are more than 10,000 square meters of buildings, including Chongqing Temple, Mani Temple, Sleeping Buddha Temple and Dizang Temple. Most of the ancient buildings are concentrated in Zhongfeng. The mountain gate goes straight up along the middle passage, the halls are stacked, and the pavilions are scattered, which is very spectacular. On both sides of the peak are East and West Longkou, with clear springs and green flowers in the valley, shaded by green trees and surrounded by pavilions. Donglongkou uses the water of mountain spring to build a new lotus pond with rippling blue waves. There is a zigzag bridge on the winding pond, and a glass wall with two dragons playing with pearls stands beside the pond. The corridor with more than 240 levels and more than 97 levels spirals up, connecting Donglongkou and Zhongfeng. West Longkou is built on the mountain, with a beautiful "Little Penglai" with pavilions and flying springs and a "Cuishan New Garden" with clear water, pavilions and green trees. The zoo on the west side of Xilongkou includes Deer Garden, Xiongchi, liger House, Monkey Mountain, Bird Garden and Panda Pavilion. The "bronze Buddha" and "Taihe iron bell" in Wuquan Mountain are the treasures of the park, and now they are national protected cultural relics. "Tongliang Buddha" was originally placed in Lianfo Temple in Dongguan, Lanzhou, and now it has been moved to Jingang Hall in Wuquan Mountain. This is a bronze Buddha cast in Hongwunian (AD 1370) of Ming Dynasty. It is 10 feet high and 8 feet in circumference. It weighs about ten thousand kilograms. Beautiful shape, clear pleats, thick and rich facial expressions, quiet and solemn, smiling, holding a bowl in his left hand and stretching his right hand, showing compassion for others and attracting all beings to cross the river. This is an extremely precious cultural relic. "Taihe Iron Bell" was originally a relic of Zhao Pu Temple, and was later placed in the bell hall of Wuquan Mountain. This iron clock was cast in the second year of Zhang Zong Taihe in the Jin Dynasty (AD 1202). It is nine feet high, six feet in diameter and weighs ten thousand Jin. The shape is grand and solemn, and the voice is rich and loud. Lanzhou Zoo is also here, including Luyuan, Xiongchi, liger Pavilion, Monkey Mountain, Bird Garden, Panda Pavilion and Elephant Pavilion. There are also a considerable number of animals that are cherished and protected.
