My hometown is in Xianyou, where the scenery is beautiful and there are many places of interest and historical sites. One of the famous scenic spots in Jiuli Lake. If you come to Xianyou for sightseeing, you must come and see Jiuli Lake, it will make you linger and forget to leave.

Spring is the best season to visit Jiuli Lake. Entering the Jiuli Lake Scenic Area, you will see green mountains, rugged rocks, and a mirror-like stone lake, which complement each other with the antique pavilions and temples, forming a charming landscape picture. More than a hundred miles of mountain springs converge on a huge rock, forming a clear blue round stone lake. There are countless strange rocks and rocks in the western part of the lake, and there are also many famous people's inscriptions on the strange rocks. There are also strange-shaped caves scattered around the lake, some like pot stoves, some like gourds, and some like footprints... Legend has it that these are the footprints left by the nine brothers of the He family who made alchemy and ascended to heaven.

The most fascinating thing about Jiuli Lake Scenic Area is the Jiu T Waterfall. When you arrive at the waterfall viewing pavilion, you can see the end of Jiuli Lake in the distance, where huge rocks are lying, blocking the path of the lake. The lake water made a whirlpool, then rolled forward, flying straight down from mid-air, forming a huge waterfall, and was blocked by cliffs. Silver flowers were everywhere, like the Milky Way hanging upside down, and the sound was like thunder running through the empty valley, making a deafening sound. , causing the earth to shake. The waterfall, which is more than 100 meters high, stirs up mist. Under the warm sunshine, a rainbow can be seen across the sky, like a sky bridge flying in the sky. The hole reaches nine days. The water of the waterfall rushes along the canyon, reaching to the second level. On top of the cliff, it cascades down again, forming a waterfall tens of meters high, like thousands of broken pearls, falling into the bottomless pool one after another, weaving into a huge hanging curtain that cannot be rolled up. Hanging in the air, the "bead curtain" gets its name. It really has the momentum of "flying down three thousand feet, it seems that the Milky Way falls into the sky", and it is called "Nine Carp Waterfall".

I have been to the vast northwest, where I saw the beautiful and vast Qinghai Lake, the mysterious Hoh Xil, the endless Qaidam Basin, the majestic The Kunlun Mountains... But the most unforgettable thing for me is the splendid art treasure house——Mogao Grottoes.

The Mogao Grottoes are located on the cliff of Mingsha Mountain in Dunhuang City, Gansu Province. During the Eastern Jin Dynasty, a monk named Le Zun came to Dunhuang and suddenly saw the Buddha's light flashing on Sanwei Mountain. He dug a cave on the cliff of Mingsha Mountain opposite and practiced in the cave every day. In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, people also began to dig caves here and paint murals to worship Buddha, and the Mogao Grottoes gradually took shape. By the Tang Dynasty, the cliffs of Mingsha Mountain were covered with thousands of caves, so the Mogao Grottoes were also called the "Thousand Buddha Cave".

When I came to the Mogao Grottoes, the first thing I saw was a magnificent "nine-story building" with red cornices and columns built against the mountain. The indoor statue of Maitreya Bodhisattva. On both sides of the nine-story building, the gray cliff stretches out, backed by Mingsha Mountain. More than a thousand caves are scattered on the cliff. Each cave has a number, just like a small room. But these small rooms are not for people to live in. They are filled with exquisite murals and solemn Buddha statues.

When I walked into the cave, I couldn’t help but exclaim. The walls around the cave were covered with exquisite murals, including birds and beasts of various shapes, flying pipa bouncing, various musical instruments, and There is a solemn and solemn Bodhisattva. The pigments used in the murals include lapis lazuli, malachite, lead white, etc., which are all ground from natural ores and gemstones. Although thousands of years have passed, the colors are still so gorgeous. I also saw familiar stories in the murals, including "Nine Colored Deer" in Cave 257, "Twelve Constellations" in Cave 17 and "Zhang Qian's Mission to the Western Regions" in Cave 323. In particular, there is an eight-petal lotus pattern in the caisson of Cave 407. In the center of the lotus are three rabbits chasing and running. The ears of each rabbit are connected together, which is very cute. Many of the stories on these cave murals are taken from Buddhist scriptures, giving people a lot of inspiration.

In addition to exquisite murals, the caves also enshrine colorful sculptures of Buddha statues. Ancient craftsmen first made the skeleton of the Buddha statue out of wood, then applied mud to the outside of the skeleton, and finally painted bright clothes. Although some of the Buddha statues have been oxidized or incomplete, it can still be seen that these clay Buddha statues are kind and lifelike, making people feel extremely solemn.

Although the murals and sculptures in the Mogao Grottoes are exquisite, the staff of the Dunhuang Academy told me that the Mogao Grottoes were destroyed and stolen by foreign powers in modern times, especially the treasures in Cave 17. The Sutra Cave once contained more than 50,000 volumes of Buddhist scriptures. Foreign cultural relic thieves stole most of the scriptures and picture books. These cultural relics are collected in foreign museums and libraries and cannot be returned to the motherland. People sighed.

However, we have more and more uncles and aunts who are determined to protect the Mogao Grottoes. They study the scriptures and murals of the Mogao Grottoes under difficult circumstances, repair the dilapidated caves, and they also digitalize the murals in the caves. Technology is preserved permanently so it can never be lost again.

The Mogao Grottoes have splendid Buddhist culture and are a world-class art treasure house. We must love and cherish it. An essay introducing places of interest and historical sites, Level 1 3

During the holidays, our whole family went to the Baiyun Cave in Kongshan Mountain to play. We had just entered the entrance of Baiyun Cave in Kongshan Mountain. There was a traffic jam and we saw a lot of people jumping in line. However, some people were kicked out because they couldn't squeeze through. We finally arrived at the entrance of Baiyun Cave in Kongshan Mountain. We saw that the weather today was very hot. We arrived at a scenic spot not far from Kongshan Baiyun Cave, the water park. As soon as we entered the water park, we saw a building with water sprints. I really wanted to go up to that building, but my mother said: "We don't know how to get in, so we can't run around."

I nodded sadly, and we came to a building. We were able to go out and play, but there was no one there, so we had to go back. Dad drove us to a forest and we got out of the car.

What we didn’t expect was that there were ditches here. We were playing in the ditch. After a while, we saw some fishermen and we watched how they fished. We walked forward and saw two children. The two children looked at us and said, "Who are you and why are you here?" I saw one of the children carrying a big net in his hand, and I asked them if they had any fish. However, my words were snatched away by my mother and those two children. We looked at them and said, "I bet there are, they are all small fish." They asked us to take a look, and my mother said, "Aren't there any big fish here?" The two children answered that there are some, but there are none here. We listened to them and left. Although we didn’t get to see the Kongshan Baiyun Cave this time, the other scenery we saw next to the Kongshan Baiyun Cave was even more beautiful.

One day during the summer vacation, our family got up early, had breakfast, invited my brother Huzi, and we set off to Tangchi Water Park! My brother and I were very excited along the way, eating snacks and discussing what the water park was like.

After more than an hour of driving, we finally arrived! First we went to the locker room and changed into swimsuits, took the swimming ring and went straight into the water. The first project to play is the children's playground, which is also my favorite and the longest time to play, because I don't dare to play other exciting projects and I am not old enough to play. There are water slides, water seesaws, water swings, etc. in the children's paradise. I like to play with water slides the most. I played many different slides. One of them was very long and exciting. I rushed down and sat on the bottom of the pool. I fell hard. Very solid, but I still enjoyed it. At noon, the beach was open for surfing. We went surfing again. The water there was very deep and the waves were huge. A wave came over and knocked me far away. Although I have never been to the beach, I also felt the power of the waves. strength. My mother and brother played the exciting big horn and space basin. I was dumbfounded watching below. When we were tired, we went to the hot springs and ate the bread we brought in the lounge, where there was free sour plum soup and watermelon.

Speaking of hot springs, there is one hot spring pool that impressed me the most. There are countless small fish in it. If you stay still while soaking in it, the small fish will come up to eat the dead skin on your body. It is very interesting. It feels so itchy!

There are also many projects in Tangchi Water Park such as swimming pools, tree houses, salt therapy rooms, etc. Our whole family had a great time that day. Although we were as tan as Africans, we still felt it was very worthwhile. ! Students, if you have the chance, you can also go and have some fun!
