What are the attractions in Sanqing Mountain?

The scenic spots in Sanqing Mountain include: Oriental Goddess, Giant Python Emerging from the Mountain, Monkey King Watching Treasures, Old Taoist Worshiping the Moon, Three Dragons Going to the Sea, etc.

1. Oriental Goddess

Oriental Goddess was originally called Goddess Peak, and was later called "Sichun Goddess". About 500 meters above the Jinsha Cableway Station in the northeast of Nanqing Garden, you will find the iconic landscape of Sanqing Mountain. It is more than 1180 meters above sea level and 86 meters high. The shape of the entire mountain is like a girl with shawl hair, a combination of heaven and earth and miraculous craftsmanship.

For hundreds of millions of years, the goddess has been sitting on the mountain peak, watching all living beings with a peaceful expression. Legend has it that the goddess is the 23rd daughter of the Queen Mother of the West, named Yao Ji. The world believes that she is the Holy God of the East and the incarnation of spring, so she is also called the "Goddess of the East". This is the most recommended attraction by buying editors.

2. The Giant Python Comes Out of the Mountain

The Giant Python Comes Out of the Mountain is located in the north of Nanqing Garden and is one of the ten iconic landscapes of Sanqing Mountain. In the deep valley of Cainian Mountain with an altitude of about 1,200 meters, there is a thin and strange stone peak in Sanqing Mountain called "The Giant Python Coming Out of the Mountain", standing tall like a jade pillar, soaring upwards, showing its charm. "The Python comes out of the mountain" is a natural giant granite stone pillar.

After hundreds of millions of years of wind, rain, weathering and gravity disintegration, transverse fractures have been formed. The top is flat and the neck is slightly thinner. It looks like a huge python breaking out of the mountain and trying to fly away. According to legend, it was the black python general sent by the Jade Emperor to move mountains and create seas. It borrowed water from the East China Sea and was about to make trouble out of Zhengheng Cave. When it was strangled by the goddess Shenzhi with a long vine, it was immobilized and turned into strange stone peaks after its death. .

3. Monkey King Guanbao

Monkey King Guanbao is located in the northwest of the West Coast Scenic Area. It is one of the top ten scenic spots in Sanqing Mountain and is also the best place to watch the sunset in the West Coast Scenic Area. The rock is about 7 meters high. From a distance, it looks like a monkey king sitting on the cliff, holding a treasure in his hand and looking at it intently. It is very naive. According to folklore, this Monkey King was Sun Wukong who caused great trouble in the Heavenly Palace. Later, under the decree of Guanyin, he escorted Tang Monk to the Western Heaven to obtain Buddhist scriptures. His merits were perfect and he was named the "Victorious Buddha in Fighting" by the Tathagata Buddha.

In order to live up to the title of "Dou Zhan" of Buddha, Wukong came to Sanqing Mountain, held treasures on the "Miao Gao Platform" in front of the cave and practiced the magic of subduing demons. As time went by, he left behind the incarnation of the Monkey King. In fact, there are many famous mountains in China that have monkey-like stone scenes, but such similar ones as the "Monkey King Guanbao" are extremely rare.

4. The Lao Taoist worships the moon and calls Yuzuo

The Lao Tao worships the moon and calls out to Yuzuo. It is a lifelike shaped stone. It is located in the Wanshou Garden. What you first see on the ropeway is not the "Lao Tao". It is two separate stone peaks, shaped a bit like a "pigeon", so it is called "Pigeon Peak". Going up further, I saw that the two stone peaks gradually overlapped, and the "old Taoist" appearance appeared.

The "old Taoist" wears his hair in a crown, wears a Taoist robe, carries a bag on his back, puts his hands together, and bows his body slightly. It is said that when the bright moon is in the sky, a picture of the old Taoist bowing his head and worshiping the moon will appear. When we arrived at Rishang Villa in the west, we faced the southeast and saw the "old Taoist worshiping the moon" again. At this time, the "old Taoist" no longer bowed, and the Taoist robes on his body were more realistic. The editor of Buying and Buying recommends that you view it from different angles when visiting.

5. Three Dragons Going Out to the Sea

Three Dragons Going Out to the Sea is located in the Nanqing Garden Scenic Area and is best viewed at Yuhuangding Peak. Three peaks with strange shapes, like three giant dragons, leap up from the valley and appear in the sky, threatening to fly away.

The three peak pillars of the Three Dragons out to sea are all over 60 meters high. It is said that these three dragons are the three grandsons of the Taoist Tongtian leader. When they were practicing at the bottom of the West Sea Valley, they met the three sects of Emperor Yu. god. In order to ask for their title, they immediately rushed out of the sea. You see, they soar into the sky with great momentum, puffing out clouds and mist. It’s really a young man’s success.
