Ten scenic spots that Tianshui must visit.

Tianshui is a rare place with green mountains and green waters in Gansu. Maijishan Grottoes, one of the four largest grottoes in China, make Tianshui a tourist attraction. There are more than Maijishan Grottoes in Tianshui, a "small south of the Yangtze River"! Let me take stock of the top ten tourist attractions in Tianshui for you.

Womaijishan Grottoes

Maijishan Grottoes, located in the southeast of Tianshui, is one of the four largest grottoes in China. It is a world-famous art treasure house and is known as the "Oriental Sculpture Museum". Maijishan is named after the mountain is like a pile of wheat. Grottoes were built 1500 years ago, and most of them were cut on cliffs 20 to 80 meters high, overlapping each other and being as dense as a honeycomb. There is a plank road between the caves to climb to the top of the mountain. The southwest of the mountain peak is a cliff, and the grottoes are dug on the cliff, some twenty or thirty meters away from the foot of the mountain, and some seventy or eighty meters away. Standing at the foot of Maijishan Grottoes, I looked up and lamented that hundreds of caves and Buddha statues had been dug on such a steep cliff, which is really rare in China Grottoes.

Second, Fuxi Temple

Fuxi Temple, also known as Tai Hao Palace, is located in Xiguan of the city. Its architecture is solemn, simple and magnificent, and it is a holy place for Chinese at home and abroad to seek their roots and pursue their ancestors. Because Fuxi is the first generation emperor in ancient legend, I am not surprised to see the palace-style architecture. After all, it is the largest Fuxi sacrificial complex in China. The courtyard is densely covered with ancient cypresses, planted in the Ming Dynasty, tall and straight, green and shaded from the sun.

Third, Xuanyuan Valley

Xuanyuan Valley, commonly known as Huangsangu, is located in Baihe Village, Shanmen Township, 70 miles east of Qingshui County. According to provincial, city and county chronicles and folklore, this is the birthplace of Xuanyuan Huangdi. The emperor era is a very important era in the history of China civilization. Through consulting the materials, I learned that this era inherited the primitive culture represented by Fuxi culture, created Emirates civilization and laid the foundation of slavery civilization. Xuanyuan Huangdi, as the representative of this period's culture, initiated Chinese civilization. But he spent his early years in Qingshui, so Qingshui is called "the hometown of Xuanyuan".

Fourth, Nanguo Temple.

Nanguo Temple, located at the foot of the mountain 2 kilometers south of Tianshui City, has a history of 1000 years and is a famous place for poets in past dynasties. Du Fu, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty in China, wrote more than 100 hymns when he lived in Qin Zhou in 759 AD, which aroused people's interest and yearning for it. When I came here, I looked up at the hillside where Nanguo Temple was located, and saw the unique natural Yang Shulin in Tianshui ancient city, which was lush and green, adding green and vitality to the temple.

Five, Yuquan view

Yuquan temple is located in the north of Qinzhou District, Tianshui City. It was built in the third year of Yuan Dade (1299). The existing buildings were rebuilt in Ming and Qing Dynasties and are national key cultural relics protection units. It is named after the clear and sweet Yuquan on the mountain and the sentence "The Temple in the Northern Suburb is named Yuquan" sung by Liang Gongbi, an Oracle of the Yuan Dynasty. Not only that, I can also enjoy the "Yuquan Fairy Cave", one of the eight scenic spots in Qin Zhou. The scenery is very unique.

Sixth, Xianrenya

Xianrenya is 0/5 km away from Maijishan Grottoes/kloc-,so I stopped by after visiting Maijishan. The natural scenery is beautiful, and the human landscape is second only to McKee Scenic Area. It is a scenic spot where Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism coexist. It consists of three cliffs, five peaks and six temples. Since the Southern and Northern Dynasties, there have been buildings and sculptures throughout the ages. The existing temples were built and repaired in the Tang, Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties, and some clay sculptures were works in the late Northern Wei Dynasty.

Seven, water curtain cave caves.

Water curtain cave Karst Cave Group is located in Zhongshan Canyon, about 25 kilometers northeast of Wushan County, Tianshui City. The post-Qin Dynasty, which was built in the Sixteen Countries, was repeatedly built in the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, the Five Dynasties, the Song Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty, mainly including five grottoes: water curtain cave, Lashao Temple, Thousand Buddha Cave, Xianshengchi and Sanqing Cave. When I came to the scene, I looked up and saw that the water curtain cave is an arched natural cave about 50 meters long, 30 meters high and 20 meters deep, which is located on the cliff on the east side of the test axe. Whenever the rainy season, the spring water and rain water on the roof and wall of the cave gush out together, and the eaves of the cave run like running water, just like a bead curtain covering the door, hence the name water curtain cave. Huge Buddhist murals of the Northern Wei, Sui, Tang and Yuan Dynasties are preserved on the cliffs of water curtain cave.

Eight, Hu's ancient residential buildings

Hu's former residence is an ancient residence in the Ming Dynasty, located on the west road of Qinzhou District, Tianshui City, adjacent to the Confucian Temple in the west. Tianshui is one of the outstanding representatives of the existing Ming Dynasty residential buildings, and it is also the only existing Ming Dynasty official residence in northwest China. It has high historical, cultural and artistic value, and its scale is also rare in China.

Nine, Guatai Mountain

Gua Taishan Gua Taishan, also known as Gua Taishan, is said to be the place where Fu looked up at the sky, looked down at the ground and began to draw gossip. Located at the northern end of Sanyo's western Sichuan, it is now under the jurisdiction of Weinan Township, Beidao District, about15km away from Tianshui City. I set off immediately after I went to Hu's ancient residence. Guatai Mountain, like a dragon protruding from the mountain, is surrounded by temples and pavilions, and the Weishui River circulates. Zhong Ling is beautiful and the weather is good. Climbing to the top of Guatai Mountain and overlooking Sanyangchuan, it is not difficult to find that the ancient Weihe River bends into an "S" shape from east to west, which divides the oval Sanyangchuan basin into two and draws a natural Taiji diagram.

X. tomb of Li guang

"But make Longcheng fly, and don't teach Huma to cross the Yinshan Mountain." Buried in Li Guang's tomb is Li Guang, a flying general who killed the enemy with blood. Li Guang's tomb is located at the foot of Wenshan in the southern suburb of Tianshui City. The tomb is about 2 meters high and 26 meters in circumference. There are three hanging peaks in the sacrificial courtyard, and the inscription "Fly to a Better City" is engraved on the main entrance wall. Seven characters are engraved on the tombstone: "Tomb of General Han Li Guang". According to the information, this tomb is Li Guang's "cenotaph", which contains swords and clothes. The original stone beast and horse in front of the tomb are vivid in shape, hence the name "Shimaping".
