Are there any tourist attractions in Xuefeng Mountain in Dongkou?

There are ten thousand mu of Chinese fir forest, Zhao Tian candle, Xuefeng Temple, Jiya Pavilion and Shi Jian Right. Xuefeng Mountain in Dongkou County belongs to the southwest section of the "primitive Jiangnan ancient land" and presents an arc structure protruding to the northwest. A set of strata composed of shallow metamorphic slate, metamorphic sandstone and phyllite are widely distributed in the Lengjiaxi Group and Banxi Group of the Pre-Sinian system, and the metamorphic clastic rocks of the Sinian system are also well developed, which are exposed among the strata composed of slate, limestone and fine sandstone of the Early Paleozoic Cambrian-Silurian system.

I. Ten thousand mu of Chinese fir forest

Rows of Chinese fir compete with each other and go straight into the sky, overlooking a lush green ocean. Birds are singing in the forest, which makes people linger.

Cunninghamia lanceolata belongs to Cunninghamia lanceolata, which is distributed in China and Viet Nam. I like light, warm, wet, foggy and quiet climate, but I don't like cold, damp, hot, wind and drought. It is as high as 30 meters and DBH can reach 2.5~3 meters. The crown is pointed or conical, and the bark is grayish brown; Big branches are spreading, and branchlets are subopposite or whorled. Its leaves are radial on the main branch, and the leaf bases of the lateral branches are twisted into two rows, leathery and upright.

Second, according to the candle

The relative height of Zhao Tianzhu is 54. 1 m, standing in the deep valley. This scenic spot has four names: in the eyes of ancient scholars who like to study it carefully, it is a huge candle, so it is called "Zhao Tianzhu"; In the eyes of the local woodcutter, it looks like the genitals of a stallion, so it is called "Ma Shi"; Among modern tourists, people who love to make up stories imagine it as a "needle that anchors the sea"; Scholars who advocate the origin of life are infected by its masculinity and implicitly call it "the root of life" It is precisely because it can make people have different views that it shows its special charm and attracts tourists to linger.

Third, Xuefeng Temple

It is the ancestral home of Cloud Gate and Fayan Buddhism. Founded in the 11th year of Tang Xiantong (AD 870). This is the founder of the mountain. There was a way to live in a temple through the dead wood. Later, it was helped by Jushilan to build a temple. This is the beginning of Xuefeng's temple building.

The temple was founded in the 11th year of Tang Xiantong (AD 870), and was listed as a national key Buddhist temple in Han area in 1983, with the reputation of "the first in the southern jungle". Due to the high altitude and microclimate, the temperature of Chongsheng Temple in Xuefeng is 6-7℃ lower than that in Fuzhou in summer, which is an ideal summer resort and a winter snow viewing resort.
