Qingdao Laoshan photography

Laoshan Mountain in Qingdao is the first mountain in the sea and the second jungle in the whole Taoist world. In the Ming Dynasty, there were "Nine Palaces, Eight Views and Seventy-two Temples", which were famous Taoist shrines.

In fact, historically, there were many Buddhist temples in the depths of Laoshan Mountain. Huayan Temple, located in Hui Ling Village of Laoshan Mountain, was the largest one at that time, and now it is the only existing Buddhist shrine in Laoshan Scenic Area. Among them, Huayan Temple and Naluo Yandong have made Huayan Scenic Area, and now they are the punching places for network celebrities.

The first part takes you to visit Huayan Temple. This article will take you to Nryana Cave to explore the magical "secret kingdom".

When I left Huayan Temple, I saw a sign indicating that it was 200 meters away from Naluoyan Cave/Kloc-0.

So close? We even thought the journey was too short, so we discussed going all the way up and then taking the road to Baiyun Cave.

As a result, it was finally discovered that the so-called 1200m should be a straight line distance.

Later, on the way back, I also met many people who were puzzled: why can't I walk so far? Ladies come in high heels. You may have misunderstood the route of the sign.

In short, in the end, our pedometer showed more than 10,000 steps.

It was midsummer when we went, but it was cool and windy. It was foggy when I left home in the morning. My husband was worried that we would get caught in the rain and asked me to take an umbrella.

As soon as the car passed the Yangkou tunnel, it was blue sky and white clouds, and the sun was shining, and my heart was suddenly enlightened.

On the way to the tour, the pine trees are shaded all the way, and even the sun hat is redundant.

Some unknown flowers and grasses lined the streets to meet them, and the air was filled with the unique fragrance of Shan Ye.

I think if the students visit at this time, I'm afraid they can know what they mean without too much explanation from the teacher.

We belong to the mountain-hiking group, not the mountain-climbing group, not the cross-country running group, so let's take a walk, pat and chat, have fun and move on slowly.

About twenty minutes, I saw a big stone by the road. This is a fish drum stone. Stone mountain, perhaps only aerial photography can see its whole picture.

Turn left, the boulder is a stone gate made up of several boulders, and only one person can pass. Now it seems that this boulder has been removed.

Passing through the stone gate, I found the word Yundong engraved on the other side of the boulder.

Yundong means a deep hole in the mountain. But where is the deep hole here? We are very confused. No cloud holes were found under the bridge. I saw someone pumping water from the spring under the bridge, thinking it was a cloud cave.

I won't know until I go home and check the information. It turns out that there is a hole in the fish drum stone, the diameter and depth are about 20 cm and 80 cm respectively. When you knock with your hand, the cave will make an empty "bang" sound, and the lingering sound will be more than 10 meters. It is shaped like the sound of a Taoist knocking on a fish drum, hence the name Fish Drum Stone.

During Guangxu period, Wang Songhan, a native of Pingdu, Qingdao, swam here and heard the sound of fish drums as wonderful as Yue Xian, so he changed his name to "Yunxue". But I walked around the boulder and found nothing.

Later, when we swam again, we deliberately tapped, and sure enough, the sound lingered in the sky and nature was playing.

Take photos on the bridge as a souvenir. I suddenly found that the background behind me is one of the classic scenery of Laoshan Mountain. It is said that the trademark of Laoshan mineral water was taken here. It's just drought, and there is no spring water flowing down the stone.

After crossing the bridge, it's not far from the Luoyan Cave, is it? The distance of 1200m should have arrived long ago.

Who cares? Let's watch the scenery. Who says walking without looking at the scenery? Since you are traveling in the mountains, you should browse slowly.

Look up at the mountain What does it look like? Some students say they are like a python devouring something, while others say they are like a lion. Let's take a closer look. How does it feel?

Strange stones in Laoshan Mountain can be seen everywhere. Look at this mountain again. Is it like Buddha gathering?

Look at the stones here. Did Maitreya come here to lie back and enjoy the cool?

This mountain road is so steep that we are all panting. However, after walking, resting and watching rocks, you will find yourself at the foot of Nryana Cave Mountain.

Xiao and his sisters rushed up. Zhang, Songer's husband and I, our volunteer driver and photographer, deliberately slowed down and called them to the cave to grab the camera.

Nryana Cave, let's go! Nryana Cave, I'm coming up!

The original meaning of Naluoyan Cave is a lotus flower that blooms nine days away.

Hua Yan Jing describes a place in the East China Sea called Naluoyan Cave, where bodhisattvas live together. Place means place.

There is a brief introduction at the entrance.

The strangest thing is that there is a round and smooth hole at the top of the hole, which leads directly to the sky. The skylight was thrown into the cave, making it particularly bright.

Legend has it that a long time ago, this hole didn't have a huge hole leading to the sky. After practicing Buddhism in this cave, Luo Yan Buddha broke the top of the cave with a big demon and ascended to heaven. This left a round hole with the sky on it.

Geologists believe that the formation of caves in Nryana was left over from the ancient glacial period hundreds of millions of years ago.

We're going to climb up. There are flowers on the wall. My sister, who loves flowers, told me not to climb in a hurry and smiled back. Although there is no charm, I am intoxicated with these flowers.

Look at Songer's "crawling posture" and you will know how steep it is. Almost straight up and down, only a few holes can be cut to stay.

This picture can clearly see those small holes that go straight up and down for people to climb the pedal.

Our classmate Li is the bravest. I just tried to climb up where she was standing. It's too steep and slippery, and it's high and steep. After two steps, my legs trembled. I dare not climb any more. I'd better take pictures of the brave.

The picture below shows the view from the cave. Is it like seeing the world in Aquarius?

This situation gives us a general idea of what kind of experience and state of mind Luo Yan Buddha and Master Hanshan had when they were practicing here.

What is Nryana Cave like now? See the details next time.
