Scenic Spots

The main scenic area of ??Wuyi Mountain Scenic Area has a radius of 70 square kilometers and an average altitude of 350 meters. It is a typical Danxia landform of the Minyue Royal City in Wuyi Mountain. It was designated by UNESCO in December 1999. The Cultural Organization was included in the "World Heritage List" and was awarded the title of "World Natural and Cultural Dual Heritage". Become the common wealth of all mankind. The beauty of Wuyi lies in the mountains. Due to the crustal movement in ancient times, coupled with the combined effects of gravity collapse, rain erosion, and weathering and peeling, the mountain has undergone strange changes: the peaks and rocks have risen, and the valleys have sunk; the mountain color has become reddish-brown due to geothermal oxidation, and the mountain shape has tilted eastward due to extrusion. It is the most typical development among more than 200 Danxia landforms across the country. The movement of the earth's crust has caused the strange peaks and rocks here to be in various shapes, some reaching straight into the sky, some stretching for miles, some hanging like screens, some standing proudly, some standing gracefully... As far as the landscape of Wuyi Mountain is concerned, most of it resembles gods. , seems more appetizing.

Huanggang Mountain

The main peak of the mountain, Huanggang Mountain, is 2160.8 meters above sea level. It is the highest peak in southeast China and is known as the "Roof of the East China Continent". On the top of the mountain is the "Huanggang Mountain" landmark erected by the Jiangxi Provincial People's Government. Due to the steep mountains and numerous peaks, the area is shrouded in clouds and mists all year round, with abundant rainfall and a warm climate. It has formed the largest and best-preserved central subtropical forest ecosystem in the southeastern continent of my country. The top of Huanggang Mountain is the core area of ??Wuyishan Nature Reserve. Due to the special nature of the reserve, it is not fully open to the public.

Jiuqu Stream

Jiuqu Stream originates from the densely forested west of Wuyi Mountain. It has abundant water and clear water quality. It is 62.8 kilometers long. It flows through the ecological reserve in the central part and winds in In the eastern Danxia landform, controlled by the distribution of rock gullies and profound fault directions, deep meanders are formed, lingering among the peaks and rock gullies. The 9.5-kilometer meander has a straight-line distance of only 5 kilometers and a curvature of 1.9 kilometers. Both sides of the Jiuqu River are typical monoclinic Danxia landforms, with 36 peaks and 99 rocks. All peaks and rocks have sloping tops, steep bodies, and gentle slopes. They look toward the east like thousands of horses galloping, majestic and in various poses. The superior climate and habitat also cover the peaks with a layer of green. Green vegetation grows on the tops of the foothills and in the rock gaps and ravines, creating the wonder of "trees growing on stones" and forming a rare natural landscape. .

The winding Jiuqu River runs through the Danya peaks, like a jade belt stringing pearls, connecting 36 peaks and 99 rocks into one. The mountain stands next to the water, and the water flows around the mountain. The height of the peaks and rocks, the width of the river bed, the size of the curvature, the rapidity of the water flow, the size of the field of view, the angle of elevation, etc. all reach a wonderful level, forming a "stream running through the mountains, two rock rows" The unique beauty of "Xianxiu", the stream light and the mountain scenery are infused with traditional Chinese poetic and aesthetic conception. These relics in Wuyi Mountain are dotted like bright gems, inlaid in Wuyi Mountain’s streams, mountain tops, caves and cliffs. They integrate the wisdom of the ancients, the thoughts of sages and the labor of the people into the natural landscape, adding a rich flavor to Wuyi Mountain. The cultural atmosphere reaches the realm of harmony between man and nature, giving people a natural and harmonious beauty. This is extremely rare among many landscapes in our country. In 1982, Wuyi Mountain, as a famous tourist attraction in my country, was approved by the State Council to be included in the first batch of national scenic spots in the name of Fujian Wuyi Mountain Scenic Area. On May 8, 2007, Wuyishan Scenic Area in Nanping City was officially approved by the National Tourism Administration as a national 5A tourist attraction.

Ancient Minyue

The cultural relics of the Minyue people are historical witnesses of the vanished ancient civilization. Wuyishan City has rich historical and cultural relics.

The boat coffins and Hongqiao boards in the cliff caves in the eastern part of Wuyi Mountain are the funeral remains of ancient ancestors, dating back more than 3,000 years. The cotton fragments in the coffin are the earliest cotton textile objects discovered in China. The Wuyi Jiahe Ship Coffin is the oldest hanging coffin found in Wuyi Mountain in China. Therefore, Wuyi Mountain is considered by archaeologists to be the birthplace of the hanging coffin burial custom, and its objects are extremely precious materials for studying my country's pre-Qin history and the vanished ancient Min culture.

Taoist Caves

According to legend, Taoism has thirty-six caves and seventy-two blessed lands, all of which are places where immortals live and relax. The world thinks that the realm that reaches the sky is auspicious and blessed, and they admire it with all their hearts. Taoist practitioners who are latent and silent practitioners like to live in secluded mountains and forests, so they often choose places with legends of immortal miracles to build palaces and temples, hoping to create a harmonious atmosphere with the immortal atmosphere and the harmony of Taoist gardens. Over the past dynasties, Taoist couples have stayed and pilgrims have flocked to it. Therefore, Dongtian Blessed Land has become a scenic spot in China's embroidered rivers and mountains.

Dongtian Blessed Land, also known as Thirty-Six Small Cave Heavens.

Wuyi Palace

Wuyi Palace, also known as Huixian Temple, Chongyou Temple and Wannian Palace, is located at the southern foot of Dawang Peak, facing the mouth of Jiuqu River. The place where Lord Wuyi is worshiped is also one of the six famous temples in the Song Dynasty. According to "Wuyi Palace Wuyi Mountain Chronicles": Wuyi Palace was built during the Tianbao period of Tang Dynasty (742-755). It is the oldest palace in Wuyi Mountain and has a history of more than a thousand years. When Wuyi Palace was first built, it was not on the current site. Instead, it was built on a stretch of Zhouzhu, which was called Tianbao Palace. In the second year of Baoda in the Southern Tang Dynasty (944), Yuanzong Li Wangjing and his younger brother Li Liangzuo resigned and entered Taoism, and then the current site was moved to the present site, named "Huixian Temple". After the completion of Huixian Temple, feudal rulers who believed deeply in the Immortal family in the past dynasties spent a lot of money to repair and expand the palace many times and renamed it "Zhongyou Temple". The Southern Song poet Xin Qiji, the poet Lu You, the Neo-Confucianists Liu Zijun and Zhu Xi were all in charge of Chongyouguan. In the fifth year of Yuan Taiding's reign (1328), it was transformed into a palace and called the "Wannian Palace". In the fourth year of Zhengtong in the Ming Dynasty (1439), the temple was destroyed by war. During the Tianshun and Chenghua years (1457-1487), although the government allocated funds for many renovations, they failed to restore the original appearance. In the fourth year of Jiajing's reign (1525), Guan was burned again and suffered heavy losses the following year. It is now Wuyi Palace. The ancient Wuyi Palace has been repaired in the past dynasties, but it could not withstand several fires and wars, leaving only a few empty rooms. In recent years, with the support of the tourism and cultural departments, the main hall of Wuyi Palace has been restored. The two osmanthus trees in the courtyard were left over from the Song Dynasty and are ancient trees that are 800-900 years old. The plan to fully restore Wuyi Palace will be carried out gradually. This eternally famous sight will surely regain its former majesty.
