It is said that many literati and poets left many poems here, such as the poem by Song Wan, a poet of the Qing Dynasty: "Birds roost on Monk Fang Mountain, and solitary smoke condenses among the pines. In the dusk, when you throw yourself on a stone bed, you will recover from drunkenness. Rizhao It is known as "watching the sunrise and fusang, watching the sea and the three islands". The three islands mentioned here (commonly known as the first three islands) refer to Pingshan Island, Dashan Island and Cheniushan Island in the southeastern sea of ??Lanshan District. The location forms an acute triangle, each of the three islands occupies one corner. Pingdao is located at the northern end of the three islands, located 41.6 kilometers southeast of Rizhao Port. The island is long and narrow, covering an area of ??0.15 square kilometers; Dashan Island is located 14.8 kilometers south of Pingdao, away from Lan. Shanggang is 49 kilometers away from the mainland and is the closest island among the three islands, with an area of ??0.12 square kilometers; Cheniushan Island is located 42 kilometers east-south of Lanshan Island, 6.8 kilometers away from Dashan Island, and covers an area of ??0.058 square kilometers. The smallest island among the three islands is also the most well-known island. According to the "Rizhao County Chronicles. Territory. Haikou" recorded in the 11th year of Guangxu's reign in the Qing Dynasty: "Cheniu Mountain, the shape of the mountain is like an ox guiding a car." The origin of this island is widely circulated among the people. It is said that there is a ridge in the northeast of Yangjiazhuang in the north of Lanshantou Village, called Jinniu Ridge. There is a cave on the ridge, and there is a golden bull in the cave. Late one night, people heard the roar of a golden bull. Early the next morning, people went up to the ridge to see it. I saw that Jinniu had long since rushed to the southeast sea and had become Cheniushan Island.

Due to severe sea erosion, the three islands have formed multi-layered dangerous rock cliffs, which are beautiful and colorful in white, gray and green. , black and various colors. It has a unique shape and is of great ornamental value.

The climate of Sandao is an ocean transition climate, with humid air, an average annual temperature of 13 degrees Celsius, and an average precipitation of 906 mm. It has unique conditions for the growth of various animals and plants, and is a paradise for birds to thrive. According to the investigation of bird experts, there are more than 100 species of birds in 20 orders and 40 families. Among them, it can be called a bird island. White-eye, skylark, willow warbler, hoopoe, little egret, kingfisher, foreign scholar, frigate bird, white-rumped swift, seagull, etc., and there are dozens of rare bird species, such as Chinese merganser, gray crane, white crane, black crane, etc. A professor of biology at Shanghai University once discovered a black-throated loon on Cheniushan Island. He was the second person in the world to capture this bird.

The top three. The soil on the island is fertile, with a vegetation coverage rate of more than 80%. Not only do many ferns and several kinds of Chinese herbal medicine grow on the island, but there are also artificially planted pine, cypress, locust, poplar, French paulownia and flowers. Pollution, lush vegetation, mountain flowers everywhere, and beautiful natural scenery.

There are more than ten species of insects and reptiles on the island. In the spring of 1987, during an inspection of Dashan Island, a four-legged snake with a long body was discovered for the first time. It reaches more than 20 centimeters, which is extremely rare on the northern island.

The three islands have a long culture, and cultural remains from the Late Paleolithic have been excavated, filling the gap in Stone Age archeology on the islands on the west coast of the Pacific.

The waters of the first three islands are the famous Haizhou Bay fishery, which is rich in a variety of marine treasures, with high yields of sea cucumbers, abalone and scallops. Lanshan fishermen have opened up a 10,000-acre artificial scallop breeding base here, realizing the true meaning of farming the sea and raising fish. It can be said that the first three islands are a treasure land in Rizhao waters and the three golden islands on the sea. In short, although the three islands are small in area, they have the four characteristics of "sea, ancient, sacred and secluded", and have great potential for economic development.

In order to do a good job in the economic development of the three islands, the Rizhao Municipal People's Government established Qiansandao Township and Qiansandao Development Company with the approval of superiors, put in artificial reefs, set up bird sanctuaries and marine treasure breeding and protection District, providing a complete and reliable basis for the design and implementation of economic development projects.

Sea Monument

In the Lanshan fishing port, there is a large reef not far from the shore. During high tide, the reef is submerged by sea water and emerges from the water during low tide. On the north-facing surface of this reef, there are inscriptions by Su Jing and others in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. This is the famous Lanshan Sea Monument, and it is also the only ancient monument in the Lanshan area that has not been damaged and has been preserved to this day. The inscription is on the slope of a cliff. ***Five texts. "Shadows of the Galaxy Move" and "Shaking Snow and Spraying Clouds" were inscribed by Su Jing in the late Ming Dynasty. The two paintings "Ten Thousand Dendrobium Pearls" and "Mainstream Crazy Waves" were inscribed by Wang Duo at the same time as Su Jing. "Difficult for Water" was inscribed by Yan Yuxiu in the early Qing Dynasty, slightly later than Su and Wang.

Liu Yong’s Ancestral Residence

Caojian Village is the ancestral residence of Liu Yong, the Ming Prime Minister of the Qing Dynasty. It was built during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty and has a long history. Currently, the "Genealogy of the Liu Family", the inscriptions of the 13th year of the Republic of China, and the tombs of Liu Siyuan and his descendants are preserved. The town party committee and government have held Liu Yong cultural seminars three times. Zhang Qifeng, professor of Weifang University, director of Liu Yong Research Institute, Zhang Chuanxi, professor of Peking University, and descendants of the Liu family (including a branch of the Panggezhuang branch in Zhucheng) and other people from all walks of life unanimously recognized that Liu Yong’s ancestral residence is in Caojian Village. Caojian Village is located 8 kilometers northwest of Huangdun Town, Lanshan District, and borders Ju County to the west. The original name is "Magpie's Nest". During the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty, it was renamed "Caojian".

Temple of the Reclining Buddha in Aye Mountain

The Temple of the Reclining Buddha in Aye Mountain is located in the northeast of Aye Mountain. It is a well-known and traceable historic site in the Lanshan area. Since there used to be an "upper temple" on the south mountain, it is customary to call Wat Pho the "lower temple". The most eye-catching thing at the site are two ancient ginkgo trees. It is said that during the Tang Dynasty's Eastern Expedition to Goryeo, General Xue Li tied his horse under the tree. There are countless ginkgo trees around. They are more than a thousand years old and still have lush branches and leaves. They stand tall and stand tall, aloof from the outside world, looking down proudly on the nearby bald mountain dwarf trees. These two ginkgo trees have survived thousands of years of calamity and are truly a wonder of nature. The year when the Temple of the Reclining Buddha was first built is unknown, but it is probably not later than the Tang Dynasty. The "Rizhao County Chronicle" compiled in the Qing Dynasty records: "There is a Tang stele in the Reclining Buddha Temple. It was destroyed by fire. The Yuan Dade stele still exists." The Yuan Dade stele that still exists during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty is the ninth year of Tiemu'er Dade, Chengzong of the Yuan Dynasty. (A.D. 1305) It was erected when the burned-down Temple of the Reclining Buddha was rebuilt, written by Pan Wenbing, and located to the north of the ginkgo tree. The body and cap of the monument are separated. The cap of the stele is seriously damaged, but you can still make out the relief of the dragon on the upper part, and the six characters "Reconstruction of the Reclining Buddha Temple". The characters are carved using a double-hook yin-yang method. The outer sides of the strokes are concave and the yang characters are retained in the middle. This type of carving method is rare in ancient steles. The body of the stele has been broken, and the text on the stele is in small regular Chinese characters. Due to the long-term trampling of cattle and sheep, the text has become blurred. The right side of the first half of the inscription mainly records the names and identities of the donors, including officials, wealthy households, and many female donors. On the left side of the upper part is the "Picture of Schools", which records the names and hierarchical titles of monks from the six generations following the ancestor, such as "the leader, the chief lecturer, the preceptor, the dharma master, the priest", etc. The lower part of the inscription also records the names of dozens of temples that participated in the celebration of the completion of the reconstruction at that time. The one in the distance is Puzhao Temple in Mount Wutai, and the one in the distance is Dingshan Temple, which should be the "sponsoring unit." On the bottom side of the stele, I don’t know what else is there. It should be said that the information contained in these inscriptions is still very rich.
