Fairy Cave Baqu Culture and Natural Village, also known as Dazhou Fairy Cave Resort, is located in Luojiang Town, Tongchuan District, the hometown of former Defense Minister General Zhang Aiping, which is 1 1 km away from Dazhou downtown and covers an area of 1 15 mu. The village was originally a military restricted area, code-named "5 15" project, and 1968 was used as the largest explosive transfer depot in northeast Sichuan by the State General Administration of Materials. It is guarded by a platoon of troops all the year round, and there are two guard towers that were retained in those years. 1987 was withdrawn and handed over to the local government, and it has been idle for more than ten years. 1997. There are many beautiful and touching legends about the Fairy Cave. Once upon a time, there lived a poor peasant family at the foot of the mountain. There is only an old couple and a son at home. My son married a beautiful, capable, virtuous and intelligent daughter-in-law. Because of the war, my son was a able-bodied man and never came back. Daughter-in-law longs for her husband. Every day, she goes to the cliff on the cave with a needle and thread sole, holds shoes and looks at the path below the mountain, hoping that her husband will come back. Looking for many years, my husband still has no news. But she still goes up the mountain to get her husband's soles every day. At first, she went down the mountain to cook and work. Over time, people only saw her not going down the cliff all day, not drinking or eating. Later, people found that she was seated, but her face was delicate and beautiful, and she just shouted No. After a while, her body no longer exists, and she flew to heaven as a fairy. Speaking of the fairy in the sky, she envied the beautiful scenery here and chose this cave to live in. Seeing the villagers working barefoot, I feel sorry for their hard work. They are kind-hearted, and they keep their shoes by the hole all day long for the villagers to pick up. But few people see her face, just saying that she is beautiful. A dude didn't do his job well and lost his greed for immortals. So he hid in the grass next to the cave in the middle of the night, and when the fairy came out of the cave to put her shoes, she came forward to hug the fairy for indecent assault. The fairy broke away from the villain, and after some severe criticism, she thought I was so kind to the villagers, and the villagers thanked me in this way. Sad, the fairy turned into a stone statue, vaguely in the hole, and never came out again. The villagers named this cave "Fairy Cave". There is also such a legend. It is said that there is a stone platform in the cave, and the fairy stands on the high platform, lifelike and purple-red, which is a fairyland. In the middle of the night, the fairy bathed in the river in front of the cave. After bathing, the river is crystal clear, moistens grains, strengthens crops, and can cure all diseases in the world, so it is admired by the world and has endless incense. One day, Lu Ban led five disciples to drive away stones with magic whips. He wants to build a Guanzitan Bridge in Luokou. When he reached the cave, he saw the fairy swimming in the water, shining. Although Lu Ban was a gentleman, he was stunned by the beauty of the fairy and stood still. The Queen Fairy found that she was extremely shy, so she hid in a cave and turned into a stone statue. At this time, the crow crowed at dawn and the magic disappeared. Luban abandoned the stone and left, forming a canyon of 1000 meters. The cliffs on both sides are locked and shaped like human ears, hence the name "Long Ear Gorge". This cave is named "Fairy Cave" because there are fairies living there.
