The falling star pier in Lushan City, Jiangxi Province only appears once a year. Why does it like hiding at the bottom of the lake so much?

Because the flood season has been decided. Luoxingdun, also known as Luoxingshi and Dexing Mountain, is located in the middle of Erlihu Lake in the south of Ziyang Dike, Lushan City, Jiangxi Province. It is a landmark building and cultural relic of Lushan City. It is a small stone island with a total area of about 1 0,800 square meters, with 100 steps in the vertical and horizontal directions.

The falling star pier is like a star floating on the water. Legend has it that it was formed by the falling of meteorites in the sky. The strange stone island in this lake has been noticed for a long time. In Song Dynasty, Jiang Youshi described it as: "The stone in the lake today is the star in the sky." Li Daoyuan also recorded in "Notes on Water Classics": "The falling star stone is more than a hundred steps a week, five feet high, with bamboo and wood on it. It is said that there are stars falling here to clear its name. " Xing Zi County, where it is located, also originated from this. In the Five Dynasties, Luoxingdun was named Gemstone Mountain. People began to build pavilions on it in the early Song Dynasty, and later generations supplemented and maintained them. Pavilions and pavilions were added in the Ming Dynasty, but these have survived with the vicissitudes of history.

This is also its magic. Meteor dock has stood in the water for thousands of years. Every winter and spring, Poyang Lake enters the dry season, which is the time when it appears. At other times of the year, it is immersed in the water. When the lake recedes, visitors can watch it in the Cao Zhou Wetland. Only a short time appears in people's field of vision all year round, and most of the rest is hidden underwater.

As for why it has been underwater for a long time, it turns out that Luoxingdun is located in Poyang Lake, the largest freshwater lake in China. Because the Yangtze River has a long flood season, only after the flood season can the water here fade into grassland for tourists to visit.
