At about nine o'clock, I arrived at the foot of Qianling Mountain and walked along a mountain road less than two meters wide. After 200 meters, there were stone steps. There are 383 stone steps in all. There is a stone tablet in front of the first pass, and there is incense in front of it. On the left of "Jiuqu Path" is Rainbow Mausoleum, and on the right is leaning on the staff bowl peak. I walked up the stone steps and saw the first small Buddha cave embedded in the rock on the left called "Ancient Buddha Cave", which was visited by Xu Xiake, a famous traveler in Ming Dynasty, in the 11th year of Chongzhen (1638). I bought a handful of incense here and intend to use it to worship Buddha all the way. Starting from the "Ancient Buddha Cave", there are cursive scripts embedded in the rocks on the left side of the "Jiuqu Path", such as "Bodhi Road", "First Mountain", "Tiger" and "Buddha" one after another.
There are more than 400 macaques in Zhangbofeng on the right. Along the way, large and small macaques can be seen everywhere, either in groups or alone. Tourists tease them with peanuts, fruits and other foods. The peaks of Qianling Mountain are stacked with obstacles, and ancient trees are towering. I saw birch, olive, camphor tree, Chinese fir and Carpinus yunguiensis.
I went into Maitreya Hall, Guanyin Pavilion and Daxiong Hall in turn, among which Daxiong Hall was the most solemn. Hanging in a pan, the Buddha sits in the middle, surrounded by Manjusri Bodhisattva and Mahayana Bodhisattva, with eighteen arhats on both sides and Buddhist scriptures and paintings behind them. In addition to lighting incense and bowing down, pilgrims will also buy red cloth strips printed with auspicious words and tie them on their wrists. I saw two books on the left and right pillars behind the giant Buddha. I hope the Buddha is merciful. The newly built Lingshan Road is willing to be honed by all beings to get rid of the maze. "
Cigarettes curled up in front of several temples. In addition to the bronze incense burner, there are several large water tanks in the yard. Tourists gently drop pennies on the water, and there are countless merit coins at the bottom of the tank.
Coming out of Ursa Major, I went around the back of the Hall and saw a memorial tablet. After the memorial tablet, you can go to the Sutra Pavilion, Jade Buddha Hall and Dharma Hall, but it is not open to tourists.
On the right side of the monument is: "Qunxian calligraphy sets an example for future generations"; On the left is "Zhong Hui will reveal the world through Upanishads", with scriptures and information from people from all walks of life, and in the middle is a portrait of Lohan. I stopped at the "Monument Square" to savor the words engraved on the monument and appreciate its calligraphy. I copied some poems casually: "The sky goes to the moon without saying anything, and the mountains are high and the sea is deep." "After reading the shadows around several peaks in southern Guizhou, it is better to draw the clouds and waters of the ancients." There are several stone tablets in front of the "Monument Square", one of which is engraved with 1995 1 the ink left by Dong on 23 October: "I went to the foot of the first mountainside in Qianling Mountain, but I still call it the double peaks outside the ancient Ye Weituo Temple in Qianquan", and the other is engraved with1March 9621day. It is said that "on the mountain gate,
From the Hall of the Great Hero to the stele, all the stone railings are engraved with scriptures. Step down from the monument and walk to a corridor on the right. There is a pool on the left and right of the corridor. There is a white marble Guanyin bodhisattva in the center of the pool. The corridor is full of classics. Copy the next song: "Master Shen Xiu: Like a bodhi tree, like a mirror, always wipe it frequently to avoid dust"; "Master of the Six Gods Huineng: Bodhi has no trees and mirrors, nor is it a stage. Nothing will cause dust. " I know this is two paragraphs in a Buddhist story, so you can savor it carefully.
At this time, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon. I felt a little hungry, so I went to a restaurant. There is a "Su Xiangzhai" on Qianling Mountain, which is famous for cooking imitation meals with bean products. It is said that the World Travel Handbook published in the United States has been launched. On the way to Suxiangzhai, I also saw a "Luohantang", but I didn't go in because I had seen many "Luohantang". When we arrived at Suxiangzhai, the restaurant was full of diners, basically a table for the whole family. I went to the billing office and looked at the menu, including: Buddha's day vegetarian fish, three-color mandarin fish, Sichuan beef, prawns with scallion, celery lamb brisket and so on. Because there were too many diners, I didn't want to wait too long and walked to the exit. Seeing a publicity column, several people were watching it and joined in. Originally, it was to introduce Buddhism in China. There are: Baima Temple in Luoyang, Lama Temple in Tibetan Buddhism in Beijing, Longhua Ancient Temple in Shanghai, Sean Temple on the west side of the Old Town God Temple in Shanghai, Suoguo Temple in Kaifeng, Henan, Nantai Temple in Hengshan Mountain in Nanyue, Hongfu Temple in Qianling Mountain in Guiyang, Dabei Temple in Tianjin, Nanhai Temple in Runan, Ye Jia Temple in Dali, Yunnan, Baoan Temple in Gaomiao, Nengren Temple in Jiangxi ... Look closely, Ms. RUTHBVRGSS, a famous printmaker, was a devout Buddhist in Australia. She flew from Sydney, Australia at the age of 65 in May 1997 and painted two murals for the external walls of the Tianwang Temple on the north and south sides of Hongfu Temple. After walking out of the mountain gate, I looked into the distance, where the peaks of Baixiangshan Mountain stretch, the palm bowl peaks below the mountain are lush, and the macaques in the forest coexist with endless tourists. This is a scene with rich details. Seeing that it was about three o'clock in the afternoon, I returned from the original road. Go to the place where blind people sing and have a rest, and throw some change into the paper box. ...
Down to the foot of the mountain, I went to a roadside shop to buy a bowl of cold rice noodles to solve Chinese food, and then I bought a bottle of "fresh orange duo" and a brand of spicy tofu. Seeing that it was still early, I ate and drank and walked to the northeast of Zhang Bofeng. About half an hour later, I came to the famous "Kirin Cave". Kirin Cave is famous because it is close to Tanshan Mountain, not only because there are a pair of huge stalactites at the entrance of the cave hall, but also because after the Xi Incident that shocked China and foreign countries, national heroes and eternal heroes Zhang Xueliang and General Yang Huchen were imprisoned in Guizhou before going to Geleshan, Chongqing, and General Zhang Xueliang was imprisoned in August 1938- 1945.
Entering the "Qilin Cave", you can see the picture columns, which are divided into preface, youth, marriage and family, military career, Xi Incident, quiet years, being in the middle of Guizhou, conclusion and other columns, and there are many little-known photos on them. In addition, you can also visit the room where General Zhang is imprisoned, including Miss Zhang's bedroom. Next to it is the secret service room. Now, after becoming a tourist spot, there are trees and flower beds in the garden in front of the cave, and there is also a "Kirin Tea Garden" with bamboo tables and chairs for tourists to enjoy.
Many tourists take photos at the entrance of Qilin Cave. Compared with other caves in Guizhou, the cave hall is not too big, but it is also more than ten meters high. In addition to Kirin, there are stalactites and magma dripping from the cave entrance, but ordinary tourists will not stay in the hall, go down to the depths of the cave on the left stone steps and drill out from another cave entrance. It was dark under the stone steps, and the hole became narrower and narrower. Generally, you should use a flashlight or lighter to illuminate the road and touch it in dim light. Fortunately, the hole is not too deep. After a dark road, you can see the light from the exit.
I came out of Qilin Cave recently, so I couldn't go to Qianling Lake in the back mountain, so I walked home along a mountain stream. In the evening, I will revisit Qianling Mountain for a one-day tour, so I will leave my travel notes as a souvenir. Although you are not a Buddhist, you should be kind, caring and normal, and feel happy when you are educated in patriotism today. It is really worthwhile to benefit physically and mentally in the embrace of nature.
