In the western section of the Lianhua Mountains, 14 kilometers away from Huidong County, there is a tall peak. Because there are nine ridges on the north side that wind like dragons, it is named "Jiulong Peak". Because the main peak is as tall and straight as the tip of a pen, it is also called "Jianbi Peak". The ancient trees here are towering, the trees are shaded from the sun, the ponds are clear, the mountains are green, and the valleys and streams are beautiful. More charming.

Jiulong Peak is 562.5 meters above sea level. The ancient Liu Mengde said: "The mountain is not high, but it is famous if there are immortals." Although Kowloon Peak is not as tall and majestic as Mount Luofu, there is a famous Tan Gong Ancestral Temple built on the mountainside where Kowloon gathers. With Tam Kung Ancestral Temple as the center, there are nearly 10 large and small temples and pavilions in Kowloon Peak, all of which are precious historical and cultural heritage. Tan Gongzu Temple was built in the ninth year of Xuande in Ming Dynasty (1434) and has a history of 571 years. In 1983, the Huidong County Government opened Jiulong Peak as a tourist area, and in 1993, the "Tan Gongzu Temple" was listed as a county-level cultural relic protection unit. Through years of construction and management by the tourism management department, it has gradually formed a tourist attraction integrating religion, sightseeing and leisure. Tourists and believers come here in droves to burn incense and worship, or to explore the secluded places. Since 1983, it has received more than 200,000 tourists every year. In order to praise the scenery of Jiulong Peak, Huidong musicians composed the song "Jiulong Peak", which has been recorded on VCD.

[Longfeng Ancestral Temple is the largest of the Jiulongfeng ancient building complex, with a square layout and a side length of 20 meters. It is divided into three halls. There is a statue of Tan Gongxian in the main hall, and statues of his sworn brothers in childhood are placed on both sides. In the right hall is the statue of Yang Dabogong, who was the messenger to Queen Tan Gongcheng. place. A new worship pavilion was built on the platform in front of the temple for burning incense and lighting candles when worshiping Tan Gong. A gourd-shaped incense burner for burning incense and turning candles was added in front of the worship pavilion. There is constant incense and firecrackers here all year round. Visitors to Jiulong Peak burn incense and candles here to pray for peace and good fortune from Mr. Tan. Some may seek spiritual sustenance from the god's idol, while others regard this behavior as fun.

There is a strange phenomenon on the glazed tile roof of Tam Kung Temple. Although there are many big trees close to this place, there are no leaves left on the tile surface all year round. No matter when you come here to look at it, the tile surface is always as clean as washing. This phenomenon occurs because there is always a strong wind blowing here every morning at around eight o'clock in the morning and around four o'clock in the afternoon, blowing away the leaves on the tile surface.

There is a fairy spring well on the right side of Tan Gong Temple. In ancient times, it was specially used for tourists to wash their hands when worshiping Tam Gong. The spring water is pure and sweet and can be drank. The fairy spring here is used to make soda, which has a refreshing taste; when used to make wine, it is particularly fragrant. It is said that if people who came here in ancient times had any illness and drank the fairy spring water, their illness would be cured by the water. To this day, pilgrims still purify their hands here before going to pay homage to Mr. Tam.

Not far above the Fairy Spring Well, there is a clear spring flowing down from a height of two meters, forming a water curtain. There is a cave where the water is filled, about one meter wide, and inside the cave there is a small hole with a diameter of About 60 centimeters and 2.38 meters deep, the water in the cave is cold and crystal clear. Legend has it that Gong Tan often bathed here when he was a child, and it was called Tan Gong Cave. It is said that the eighth day of April every year is the anniversary of Tan Gong's bathing. On this day, many tourists believe that it is a pleasure to take a bath here.

[Wenchang Palace]

Okay, everyone continues walking along the path to reach Wenchang Palace. Wenchang Palace is located on the right front of Longfeng Ancestral Temple. It was built in the 23rd year of Emperor Kangxi's reign in the Qing Dynasty (1684), 321 years ago. It is a place where literati worshiped Confucius and the five great sages, and prayed for a prosperous cultural fortune. In 1984, large-scale renovations were carried out. In addition to maintaining the original architectural style, some wall sculptures and murals were added, making this palace-style ancient building even more magnificent. There is a "ceremony gate" on the right side, and the couplet on both sides is "There were thousands of scenes in the past, and humanities have changed from now on", which expresses people's respect for Confucius and literati.

In Wenchang Palace, according to traditional practice, the main god worshiped is "Wenchang Emperor", but here is a statue of Confucius, known as the "Eternal Teacher", which is dedicated to literati and bachelors who respected Confucius throughout the ages. On the left side of the statue of Confucius, there are statues of Meng Ke, Yan Yuan, Zeng Shen, Cheng Hao and Zhu Xi who respected Confucius in the past dynasties. On the right is "Kuixing Point Dou". It is said that Kuixing passed the imperial examination nine times, but the emperor thought he was ugly and refused to recruit him as his consort. Kuixing was so frustrated that he wanted to jump into the sea for the rest of his life. A carp picked him up and persuaded him to be strong and self-reliant and to revitalize culture. This statue of Kuixing has a carp head on his feet and is giving advice to the champion.

[Zhiyin Pavilion]

There is Zhiyin Pavilion (formerly known as Ma Pavilion) on the left side of Longfeng Ancestral Temple. It was built in the fifth year of Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty (1740) and is the local township. Huan Chen invested millions in its construction. "Guishan County Chronicle" records: "...there is Zhiyin Pavilion on the left side of the nunnery, which was built by Chen Duo, the prefect." Chen Duo, known as "Chen Baiwan", was a local eunuch. At that time, he saw an endless stream of equestrian dignitaries coming to the ancestral temple to worship. For the convenience of tourists, he funded the construction of this pavilion for officials and equestrians from afar to tie their horses, so it was also called the "horse pavilion".

There is a chess playing pavilion next to Chi Yin Pavilion, which is specially used for tourists who are fascinated by the beautiful scenery of Jiulong Peak to play chess.

According to legend, one day, the White Crane Immortal and the Antarctic Immortal were playing chess under an ancient pine tree. Zhang Guolao came here to cut firewood. Seeing that the two were indecisive for a long time, he put down his ax and crouched on the wood grid and squatted aside to watch the battle. Unexpectedly, after watching it for seven days and seven nights, there was still no winner. At this time, the White Crane Fairy looked up and saw that Zhang Guolao was still watching chess, so he smiled and said, "Zhang Guolao, why don't you go back? Your ax handle and wood grid are both rotten." Upon hearing this, Zhang Guolao hurriedly I went to look at it and was shocked when I saw it. The ax handle and grid were really rotten, and the ax head turned into a piece of rusty iron. Seeing his miserable appearance, the two immortals smiled again: "Seven days in the mountains, thousands of years in the world!" After saying that, they disappeared without a trace. But he said that when Zhang Guolao returned home, he didn't even recognize him. The tourists who come here today don't know whether they are infatuated with the natural beauty here, or they are waiting for the two immortals to come and play chess, and they refuse to leave for a long time.

Jiulong Peak has been attracting countless pilgrims for more than 600 years because of its beautiful natural scenery, touching myths and legends, exquisite ancient architecture and strong religious color. Today, due to its splendid national cultural heritage and precious ancient buildings, it is listed as a key cultural relic protection unit by the government and has been developed into a tourist area.

Dear group members, the tour to Jiulong Peak is coming to an end. You can rest for twenty minutes now. If you are interested, you are welcome to come back next time!

Pinghai Ancient City

[Guide Guide] Overview - Zhongcheng - Cross Street - Qixingjing - City God Temple - Military Sound

[Overview ]

Dear group members, Huidong Pinghai is located at the southern end of the Ningping Peninsula in the southeast of Guangdong Province, adjacent to Daya Bay and Red Bay. The ancient city of Pinghai was built in the 18th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1385). In ancient times, it was a "guard city" to fight against the enemy. Today, the city walls and buildings in the city are relatively intact, and the city retains rich national cultural heritage. In February 1991, Pinghai was designated as one of the first batch of historical and cultural cities in Guangdong Province by the People's Government of Guangdong Province.

Pinghai has beautiful natural scenery and colorful cultural landscapes. There are boundless blue seas, beaches as white as mattresses, simple and elegant city gate towers, and ancient houses with carved dragons and painted phoenixes. The nostalgic ancient streets and famous temples and nunneries dotted here and there, as well as the numerous folk arts and the unique local language - military sounds, are the magnificent wonders of Pinghai Ancient City and the pages of colorful ethnic groups. Cultural scroll. Here you can visit Nanmen Bay, accept the embrace of the sea, enjoy the ancient city gate tower, cross ancient street, Bangshan Ancient Temple, Longquan Temple, Dongyue Temple, Chenghuang Temple, Jueming Cave, and appreciate the style of Pinghai Ancient City.

The people of the ancient city have created history, described today, and are creating the future. Huidong musicians have composed songs "Ballad of Zhongcheng", "Beauty of Zhongcheng" and "My Hometown's Beautiful Scenery" to praise the ancient city of Pinghai in their hometown, which have been recorded on VCD DVDs. The Ancient City Office publishes the publication "Zhongcheng Literature and Art", and the Guangdong People's Publishing House publishes the book "Historical and Cultural City Pinghai". The ancient city holds a cultural and art festival every two or three years, and the scene is lively and colorful. The spring breeze of the motherland's reform and opening up has made the ancient city more attractive and full of color of the times. In recent years, it has attracted hundreds of thousands of tourists to visit Pinghai Ancient City.

[Zhongcheng]

Dear group members, Pinghai Ancient City, also known as Zhongcheng, when talking about the history of Zhongcheng, we have to start from more than 600 years ago.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, bandits were rampant in the Daya Bay and Red Bay areas, and the people were in dire straits. During the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty sent Huadu Si to Pinghai to build a city to guard the entrance and exit throats of southern Huizhou to resist foreign invasion.

According to the "Reconstruction of Kaicheng Capital Huafu Hua Gong Epitaph" in the tenth year of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty (1745): "Gongsheng was awarded the post of the capital of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty. He built Pinghai City, opened five villages to raise troops, and created one city. To care for the people, to calm the sea, to protect the borderland...". The genealogy of the Yang family in Zhongcheng records: "In the 17th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, the 18th generation ancestor Yang Xungong came here from Xiangshan, Hanyang County, Hanyang Prefecture, Hubei Province with Huadu Si to build Pinghai City in Guishan County, Huizhou Prefecture..." "Guishan County Chronicle" Records: "In the south and southeast of the sea, there is Pinghai Guards House for Thousands of Households. The city is 120 feet wide and 18 feet high. There are 871 pheasants and butterflies. There are watchtowers at the four gates of the city and four nests at the corners. seven……". Pinghai City was built in the 27th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1394). The city has Pinghai Inspection Department, Pinghaiying General Staff Office, Pinghaiying Chinese Military Garrison Office, and Pinghaicang. From the reign of Kangxi to Jiaqing in the Qing Dynasty, Daxingshan Fort, Panyan Port Fort, Duntou Port Fort, Dongzhuantou Fort and Jitou Fort were successively built on the front of Pinghai City. The dense forts formed a dense coastal defense line. The Daxingshan Fort located in the eastern suburbs is still well preserved and its majestic appearance is still there. In 1982, two Qing Dynasty cannons were discovered on the seaside of Hijiao Village, south of the ancient city.

The ancient city is called the Bell City because its shape resembles a "swallow-tailed bell". The four gate towers in the east, west, south and north and part of the city wall are still intact and have become the main symbol of the Bell City. A high arc-shaped wall is built directly in front of the east gate of the city to connect it with the east gate, and a battlement is built on the upper end, which is called the "bell ear" of the bell city. The "Cross Ancient Street" runs through the four gate towers. At that time, industry and commerce in the ancient city were developed. There were Guangxing Guild Hall, Meizhou Guild Hall, Chaozhou Guild Hall, Shanghai Street, Dongguan Street, Chaozhou Street, Haifeng Street, Jindai Street, Cao Street, Mi Street, Turtle Street, Deng Street, Zhu Street and other buildings inside and outside the city. Zai Street, Datie Street and other trading markets. These are enough to show that Pinghai has been one of the more prosperous areas on the southeast coast of Guangdong Province in terms of economy and culture since its establishment.

Since the beginning of its construction, Bell City has been cast in a layer of mystery. According to the "Feng Shui" custom at that time, the city was built with: "Four Zhaobi" (four walls), "Wutu" (five earth gods facing south to north), "Liuzao" (six east to west without Gaiwa - the social god who means "standing upright on the sky and the earth"), "seven wells" and "nine city gates". The so-called "Nine City Gates" are four false gates that have gate shapes but are not transparent.

The city gate tower was the tallest and majestic building in the Clock City at that time. Taking the west gate as an example, the cave is 2.4 meters high, 2.5 meters wide and 14 meters deep. The tower is 16.8 meters long and 71 meters in total height. The tower has a refined shape, carved beams and painted pillars, and is full of national architectural features. The front and rear stands of the tower have a wide field of view, which further shows its majesty.

[Cross Ancient Street]

Dear group members, we came in from the city gate and now come to the Cross Ancient Street in the city. What is "Cross Ancient Street"? The streets that run through the east, west, south, and north gate towers of Pinghai Ancient City are often called "Cross Ancient Streets." The "Cross Ancient Street" was born along with the ancient city. After more than 600 years of summer and winter, the streets still retain the rows of ancient houses on both sides. Most of these residential houses are brick houses with a balanced and symmetrical plan, adopting a comprehensive structure evolved from the mansion style, the dragon dragon style, and the courtyard house. The roofs are mostly of the cantilevered mountain type or the hard mountain type. The Zeng's Ancestral Hall, Liu's House, Lin's House and Huang's House and other folk houses that have been preserved to this day are all traces of the times and pictures of history.

[Seven Star Wells]

I don’t know how many ancient wells there are in Pinghai Ancient City, but there are only seven of the oldest ones. These seven ancient wells were planned and built at the same time as the Cross Ancient Street. The wells were completed during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, more than 600 years ago.

The layout of these seven wells resembles the "Big Dipper" in the sky, hence the name "Seven Star Wells". Seven wells were placed on East Street, two on West Street, three on West Street, one on South Street, and one on North Street. Six of them were built along the cross streets. The depth of Qixing Well is no more than 8 meters. It is made of standard stones and is very solid. The diameter of the wells is all circular, and the well platforms are either square or round. The well water is light in the rainy season and salty in the dry winter. For hundreds of years, these seven wells have nourished the people of Pinghai. In recent years, after tap water has been provided to every household, many people still go to the ancient wells to get water. Please follow me forward and you will see these seven wells.

[City God’s Temple]

Dear group members, now we come to this place which is the City God’s Temple. It is located on the west side of the city. It was built in the third year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (1405), with a construction area of ??430 square meters. It was rebuilt in the 26th year of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty (1687). During the Anti-Japanese War, the City God's Temple was almost razed to the ground and demolished twice after liberation. In 1989, compatriots living in Hong Kong and local people donated more than one million yuan to restore it to its original appearance.

The culture of Pinghai City God's Temple is gorgeous and colorful. Everyone looked up and saw the couplet at the main entrance: Mingmingmingdi, majestic main entrance. Hengpi: Integrity and selflessness. Continue to look at its couplets: "There are two difficulties in the world. It's hard to reach the sky. It's even harder to ask for help. There are two dangers in the world. The rivers and lakes are dangerous and people's hearts are even more dangerous. There are two kinds of paper in the world. The paper is thin and human feelings are thin. There are two kinds of hardships in the world. The yellow lotus is bitter and poverty is even harder." The couplets in the Pinghai City God's Temple are very distinctive. Please follow me and continue to read, "Heaven knows the earth and the gods know the ghosts and you know and I know what it is to be ignorant; good retribution, negative retribution, evil retribution and quick retribution must be repaid in the end." "May God always live forever. Good people: May people always have good luck." "If you are a conscientious person, why should you burn incense and light candles on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month? If you do things that are ignorant of the laws of heaven, you must guard against my iron chain and copper fork in the middle of the night." All the words and couplets are permeated with the consciousness of advising people to abandon evil and do good. When visiting the City God's Temple, you can't help but read the calligraphy and paintings carefully, abandon the superstitious elements, and understand the philosophy of life. You will definitely benefit from it.

On the left side of the temple stands the "Chenghuang Ancient Pavilion", which is 6 meters high and constructed on three floors. The eaves of each floor are sculpted with vivid stories of historical figures.

Okay, we have seen the whole view of the ancient city. What do you think? In fact, there are many unique landscapes and magical places in Pinghai Ancient City. Now I will introduce to you a dialect, which is the military sound.

[Military Sound]

The ancient city of Pinghai produced a unique language called Military Sound. This language is based on northern pronunciation and incorporates elements of Cantonese (Cantonese), Hakka, and Chaoshan dialect. People who can speak Junsheng are basically familiar with the above-mentioned dialects. There is a saying that "if you know Pinghai dialect, you can travel all over the world".

For example: "Everyone is very happy, can't eat, can't sleep, and is anxious to attend the famous city plaque awarding ceremony held at the Chenghuang Temple." This sentence is pronounced as: Dagahaogaohing, kiebolofan, kuanbologao ,giamzhoyiukicamgazaixengwangmiugihangdiemingxengshaobindinli.

The sound of military action is the historical product of Pinghai Ancient City. After Pinghai opened the city, soldiers gathered together and business flourished. Soldiers and businessmen from more than 70 counties and cities across the country have integrated and infiltrated various languages ????with each other in the long exchanges, forming a military voice in which military language dominates. Today, the beauty of military sounds, just like the beauty of music, attracts many tourists. If you are interested, I can teach you a few more words.

The water depth is 5-15 meters. The water temperature in summer and autumn is about 28°C, and the seawater salinity is above 30% all year round. The beach has a gentle slope and fine sand grains, which is conducive to turtles crawling, digging, laying eggs and breeding.

Sea turtles are Category II protected animals in my country. They can crawl on land and swim in water, and they can swim very fast. From June to November every year, female sea turtles return here to lay eggs, with eggs ranging from 40 to 120 per clutch. Female sea turtles with strong fecundity can lay three clutches of eggs per year.

Sea turtles generally lay eggs at night. During the breeding season, the staff of the reserve stay on the beach all night long, but they cannot disturb the sea turtles, because sea turtles are very alert and will swim once they find any movement on the beach. Back at sea, the staff must be patient and discreet. A female sea turtle digs a hole on the beach. After she lays the first egg, she doesn't care how you play with it. She will insist on laying all the eggs and cover them with sand. She will then slowly lay them flat. Slowly swim back to the sea. Turtle eggs hatch naturally. When the temperature is high, most of the hatchlings are male. When the temperature is low, most of the hatchlings are female. When the baby turtles hatch, the staff will take these cute little guys back to the base and take good care of them. Taking care of these baby turtles is not easy. Turtles live independently and are aggressive by nature. Soon after they hatched, they would fight and bite each other, so the staff had to isolate them one by one. When they are stronger, a small number of turtles will be kept at the base for scientific research, while the rest will be released into the sea.

The Port Turtle Nature Reserve is a base for the research and protection of sea turtles. It was opened as a tourist attraction to educate people on the importance of protecting ecological balance and sustainable development, and to integrate education into tourism. Okay, now that we have arrived at the protected area, you can watch it carefully from a distance and be sure not to disturb the turtles.

[Daxing Mountain Fort]

Dear group members, the scenic spot we are going to now is called Paotou Mountain, also known as Daxing Mountain Fort. Because it looks like a pig pocket, it is also called Pig Pocket City. . It is located in the south of Daxing Mountain, facing the sea to the east, west and south. The terrain is dangerous and it has been a battleground for military strategists of all ages.

Since the 18th century, the Qing Empire has gradually lagged behind the process of world history. The imperialist powers have continuously sent troops to invade China, and pirate ships have rampaged and plundered everywhere, causing peace in the southern seas day and night. In order to resist foreign aggression, in the 50th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty (1718), the right minister of the local military affairs department of Guangdong and Guangxi, who was also in charge of food, wages and war, and the right deputy of the provincial procuratorate donated money to build a fort here and build a military fortress.

The fort is built with granite, with a circumference of 295 meters, an average height of 3.5 meters and a width of 255 meters. It has a northeast-facing stone door with a height of 1.95 meters and a width of 1.63 meters. According to the inscription, there are 2 serial guns in the fort, 22 barracks, 1 gunpowder magazine, 2 2500-jin cannons, 2 1000-jin cannons, 1 600-jin cannon, 3 500-jin cannons, and 600 soldiers. One player will defend the total rate.

The fort is majestic and majestic, like a rising and lying dragon, monitoring the border defenses facing the sea on three sides. In December 1984, the Huidong County People's Government listed Daxingshan Fort as the first batch of cultural relics protection units in Huidong County.

[Shuangyue Bay]

Looking down from Fortress Mountain, you can see the beautiful Shuangyue Bay. Shuangyue Bay consists of two half-moon-shaped bays adjacent to Daya Bay and Red Bay. The two sand ridges go straight to Daxing Mountain, like a dragon emerging from the sea, or two dragons playing with a pearl. They are still and moving, very magnificent. Half Moon Bay on the shore of Daya Bay has a gentle breeze and gentle waves, and is very beautiful. Half Moon Bay on the shore of Red Bay has rough waves and majestic momentum. Surrounded by the sea on three sides, the scenery is picturesque. White sandy beaches, dark green forest belts, blue sea, colorful reefs, charming islands, and shuttle fishing boats make up the scenery of the South China Sea fishing port where movement and tranquility blend. Standing on Daxing Mountain, you can see from a distance: in the early morning, the red sun shines out in the east, the waves are sparkling on Shuangyue Bay, and the fishermen's children are busy rushing to the sea; in the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkles the sea with golden color on Shuangyue Bay, and the fishermen's children return home with full loads, leaving behind Strings of laughter; at night, the fishing fires on Shuangyue Bay are lit, and the sound of waves is accompanied by the fishermen’s evening singing, which is so poetic and picturesque... Every year, a large number of tourists come for sightseeing, tourism, leisure and vacation. Literati and photography enthusiasts are even more reluctant to leave. The movies "The Great Wall of the South China Sea", "Sun Yat-sen", and the TV movie "Beijing-Kowloon" all had many shots here. The poet Fan Min was intoxicated by the enchantment of Shuangyue Bay, and wrote a poem: "The starry eyes are hazy and charming, the golden cup and jade belt are wrapped in the slender body, the sun rises in the east and the moon in the west, and the white waves and blue waves wash over the slender waist." You can first revel in the charming scene of Shuangyue Bay at Daxing Mountain and take a few more photos, and then we will go to Shuangyue Bay to have a look.
