More than 9 years ago, Su Dongpo, a great writer in the Song Dynasty, was banished to Danzhou, Hainan, and passed through Chengmai Old Town.

In the first year of Yuanfeng in the Western Han Dynasty (11 BC), Chengmai was located in the county. It has been more than 2, years since then. It is one of the three historical ancient cities in Hainan, with a long history and flourishing humanities. Because the ancient county governs the old city with "Chengjiang" and "Mailing (Mountain)", it is named as "Chengmai". Scenic spots in Chengmai

Everyone knows about Jigong Living Buddha, but not many people know about Jigong Mountain in Chengmai. Chengmai Jigong Mountain, located in Honggang Farm, is named after a boulder that looks like a living Buddha of Jigong. The original name of Jigong Mountain is Shilanling, also known as Mountain Pig Ridge. If you look closely at the appearance of the boulder, the broken felt hat, high nose, smiling eyes, funny mouth and swaying manner are exactly the same as those of Tongji.
After the demonstration by the survey experts of Hainan Geological Brigade, the Provincial Land Reclamation Bureau approved the development of Jigongshan Scenic Area. A stone tablet was erected in front of the stone statue of Jigong, with the inscription "Jigong Stone Statue was found on this scenic mountain on October 22, 1993.
The living Buddha of Jigong is eccentric in nature, kind-hearted, promotes good and evil, eliminates violence and helps the poor. " The back of the stone tablet is engraved with a brief introduction of Jigong: "The living Buddha of Jigong was originally named Li, and Xiuyuan was born in Nanzong era, a native of Tiantai, Zhejiang.

Originally, the stream was wrapped in fields, and then suddenly it met a cliff more than ten meters high, and the water splashed and fell, forming a spectacular waterfall.
The waterfall, Bitan, the cliff and the rocks, the dense water vapor and the sound pictures make this waterfall about eight meters high and more than ten meters wide in Sichuan even more shocking. "The east pours down the stone beach like a waterfall, and the sound resounds like Lei Zhen." The ancients honestly didn't deceive me, and the word "diarrhea" described the grandeur of the waterfall.
There is a stone wall in Nanxuan Village during the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty, which is beautifully carved and magnificent. As soon as I entered the entrance of Nanxuan Village, I saw a very conspicuous stone block, which was made of local volcanic rocks, carefully carved and built with a hammer and steel, with unique technology and exquisite carving.
There are 56 masonry blocks in the whole stone photo wall, which are divided into three parts: wall base, wall body and wall ridge.

The wall is about 2.5m in height, 4.2m in width and .3m in thickness. It is made of 42 square stones, with the words "Purple Gas Comes from the East" engraved on the front and "Fu Lu Shou Xi" in the middle, with auspicious clouds, flowers and other patterns.
