Where is Xiuyan Yingshan red scenic spot?

Located 9 kilometers east of Xiuyan County, Anshan City, Liaoning Province, the jade capital of China, there are 1 1,000 mu of azaleas in full bloom in the middle and late April every year. The flowering period is full of mountains and hongxia, stretching for ten miles, which is spectacular. The flowering period is generally 10- 15 days. Rhododendron, also known as azalea, blooms before pear, peach and cherry blossoms. It is cold-resistant, blooms early and is not afraid of the wind. It is rarely seen and widely presented in Northeast China. As the flower of early spring, Rhododendron Xiuyan is particularly precious, attracting hundreds of thousands of people to watch it every year.

Buddhists in Emei call it alsophila spinulosa flower, also known as Buddha flower. Agama, a Buddhist scripture, said that Vishnu Buddha, who became a Buddha before Sakyamuni, became a Buddha under this kind of flower. According to legend, a long time ago, an arhat came to Emei Mountain to worship Buddha in the form of wandering immortals. He found that in late spring, when the weather was cold and there were no flowers growing on the mountain, he turned into a cuckoo mountain to worship Buddha. Since then, monks have called this kind of flower spiny. In the "Alsophila spinulosa Flower" by Peng Yuanji, a layman in the Qing Dynasty, it is said that Alsophila spinulosa was originally a flower before the Buddha and bloomed all over Emei Mountain. Don't believe in Buddha's eternal life? Treat flowers like Buddha. Prosperous, full of mountains and clouds, see flowers and see Buddha.
