It is said that Xinhui has eight scenic spots since the Ming Dynasty, and they were re-evaluated in the 1980s, so Xinhui has "old eight scenic spots" and "new eight scenic spots".
The "Old Eight Scenes" are: Gudong, Xiangshan Qiuyue, Huang Yun Jody, Zishui Fishing Boat, Jiangmen Wandu, Xiongzi Guifan, Yamen Chunbo and Guifeng Waterfall.
There is a hill in front of the old people's hospital in Gudong, Gugang, called Gugang Mountain. In ancient times, there was a lonely pine tree on the mountain, which was still very dense after thousands of years of experience. There are often white cranes flying here to inhabit, so there is a saying that "the solitary pine is a thousand years old, and the immortals often fall." After Gu Song's death, although there was replanting, it was not Gu Song.
Xiangshan Autumn Moon Xiangshan is the oldest park in Huicheng. There used to be an autumn moon pavilion on the mountain. On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, the city is crowded with people, and people climb the Xiangshan Mountain to enjoy the moon. This custom has been passed down to this day.
Huangdi In the old society, Huang Yunshan, outside the north gate of Huicheng, was a place where shepherds herded cattle and woodcutter cut firewood. When the sun sets and Huang Yun reflects the sunlight, every shepherd boy on Huang Yun Mountain makes a flute with a papaya petiole, rides on the cow's back, plays the flute into the city, and then comes back with the woodcutter.
Purple water fishing boat legend In the Song Dynasty, the Shati River west of Huicheng once turned purple, so it was called purple water. Hundreds of fishing boats, returning from fishing at sea, moored on the bank at night, and the fishing boats sang at night, ringing the purple water on the coast. It is also said that there is a boulder at the bottom of the sand embankment that looks like a carp and is the king of carp. A large group of carp came from far away to worship Magikarp. There are many carp in the river, and dozens of fishing boats fish under Zishui Bridge every day.
Jiangmen is under the jurisdiction of Xinhui when it crosses the river at night. Every evening, floats and boats from Jiangmen River gather on the long beach. Dressed as a woman, she patted her shoulder and songbirds called a ferry. There was a poem saying: "Jiangmen has a good scenery, and the scenery is in Long Beach. Egg girls compete for customers, and their voices are getting louder and louder in the West. "
There is a seven-story ancient pagoda on Fengshan in Chakeng Village, Xinhui, named Xiong Zita, also known as Lingyun Pagoda. Whenever the sun goes down, I climb the Xiongzi Tower to see the fishing boats on Yinzhou Lake, but when I see a little sail back, I sail the gondola generously.
The Haikou of the Yamen Chunlang Yamen is narrow, and there is a "threshold stone" more than a mile long under it. Every spring, the wind and waves are extremely strong, and rows of white waves flock to the gate of the yamen. The waves are stirred up by "threshold stones" dozens of feet high, and the sound is like huge thunder, which has a great feeling of watching the tide in Qiantang. It is known as "Three Spring Waves in Cliff Sea and August Tide in Qiantang".
The green curtain of Guifeng Waterfall Guifeng Mountain has a wide stream, which meets the spring water of Guifeng and Yunfeng in a narrow valley, falls through a gap, forms a waterfall of 100 feet, and pours into Longtan, splashing and rumbling, which is very spectacular. A poem praised: "The flying spring hangs a blue peak and wants to start a dragon in the pool; There is no heavy snow in the south, so it is suspected to be a white cloud seal. "
Great changes have taken place in the old eight sights of Xinhui, some of which have been lost. 1988 April19, Xinhui County People's Government changed its name to "Eight Scenes of Xinhui", that is, "New Eight Scenes".
The "new eight sights" are: Guifeng Diecui, Bird of Paradise, Chishi Songtao, Gongkeng Quehua, Xiangshan Qiuyue, Hu Kui Xiao Chun, Yinzhou Taying and Yamen Sightseeing.
Guifeng Mountain covers an area of 50,000 mu and its main peak is 545 meters above sea level. Mountain peaks rise like a ghost wall, with a magnificent momentum, and the peaks overlap like obstacles, winding like a picture. There are many places of interest on the mountain, including pavilions and temples, morning bells and drums, and endless Sanskrit sounds. It is one of the top ten famous mountains in Guangdong. Now Guifeng Mountain has been built into a national 4A tourist attraction and a national forest park. Famous scenic spots include Yutai Temple and Yuhu Scenic Area, one of the four famous temples in Lingnan, Zhou Enlai Memorial Hall, Kuibo Garden, Guifeng Sports Park and Longtan Scenic Area.
Bird of paradise. There is an island in the Tianma River in Huicheng Town, named "Quedun". A 380-year-old banyan tree stands alone in the forest, with a winding dragon and 15 acres of shade. Thousands of birds live there, making it a famous bird of paradise. Every morning and evening, thousands of egrets and grey herons return home. Over the Green Island, thousands of birds croak, which is a spectacle. In 1930s, Ba Jin, a famous writer, visited Xinhui and wrote a beautiful essay "Paradise of Birds", which was incorporated into the national primary school Chinese textbook after liberation. Since then, "Bird of Paradise" has become famous all over the country. In recent years, the relevant departments have invested heavily in the large-scale expansion of the Bird of Paradise Scenic Area, with a total area of 400,000 square meters from the original 6,543,800 square meters. The scenic spot is divided into bird habitat and bird watching area, cultural and ecological landscape area, water bird watching corridor and banyan bird watching corridor, as well as water wedding, hometown salty water song performance and other programs with unique characteristics of Guixiang.
On the north back of Guifeng Mountain in Chishi Songtao, there is a branch extending from the green curtain to the northeast, and there is a pit on the mountainside called Yangshikeng. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Huang Gongfu, a great fu, renamed "goat stone pit" as "Nushi" according to the myth that "Nushi turned into a sheep". Here, there are thousands of waves; The valley is clear and the water is flowing; Rocks, pavilions and temples: a beautiful sight of green mountains and green waters.
Tangxia Town (now affiliated to Fengjiang District of Jiangmen City) of Gongkeng Quehua New Association has a scenic spot named "Gongkeng". There are long vines with thick arms on the hillside here. Before and after the Qingming Festival every year, a string of milky white flowers are covered with branches. These flowers are like sparrows. Each one has a head, eyes, mouth, wings and tail. Blooming flowers are like flying wings, and budding flowers are like hungry chicks. They are lifelike and very interesting. Sparrow is a wonderful flower in Wuyi, Jiangmen, which attracts many tourists.
It has become a custom for Xiangshan people to climb the mountain and look at the moon on Mid-Autumn Festival night. In recent years, the relevant departments have built and widened the Xiangshan hiking trail, planted more landscape trees, built new mountaineering pavilions and platforms for enjoying the moon, and built a hilltop square, which has added many facilities for citizens to exercise every morning and enjoy the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The trip to Yamen Yamen is the place where the Southern Song Dynasty perished. The most tragic "Yamen naval battle" in history took place here, and there are many places of interest here. "Scenic spots in front of Ya 'an" include "Spring Wave in front of Ya 'an" and ancient battlefield in front of Ya 'an, Guomutang, Stone in front of Ya 'an, Fort in front of Ya 'an and Bridge in front of Ya 'an. Among them, Yamen Bridge, which was completed in June of 20001,is a super-large cable-stayed bridge with twin towers and single cable plane across Yamen Waterway, with the longest span of its kind in China, ranking first in Asia and second in the world.
Hu Kui Xiao Chun 1959, Huicheng citizens dug an artificial lake named "Hu Kui" with an area of 150 mu in the west of Huicheng. There is an island sunflower forest in the lake, surrounded by pavilions and winding paths, and there are dense sunflower trees by the lake. Whenever Chu Xiao in the East, the morning light shines on the swaying sunflower feathers, and the green sunflowers are reflected in the calm lake water, showing the unique scenery of Kuixiang. Lu Huo, a poet, praised Gui Hu with the poem "A lake with green water and a thousand trees with green sunflowers". After large-scale transformation and expansion, Gui Hu is more beautiful now. There is a wide square at the entrance of the park, and the hydrophilic platform connected with the square extends to the middle of the lake. Three arch bridges are connected in the center of the lake, and five curved bridges, hexagonal pavilions and arch-span pavilions are dotted among them. Sunflower trees on Kwai Island in the middle of the lake are dense and dense; Broad leaves spread in all directions, thick and lush. Guilin is like an oasis and Guitao is like music. Today's Kwai Lake Park shows a thousand-year-old Kwai Township style.
There is a Fengshan in Chakeng Village near Yinzhou Lake, and there is an ancient pagoda on the mountain, called Lingyun Tower, also called Zi Long Tower. Looking at Lingyun Tower from the distance of Yinzhou Lake, I can see the lush Fengshan and the towering Long Ta, spreading its wings like a phoenix to welcome people, and holding its head high like a dragon, which is exciting. Climb the tower and overlook, sail a little on Yinzhou Lake; At the foot of the lake, bridges are like rainbows, and Meishan Mountain is lush. Whenever the sun sets in the morning and Yinzhou Lake is calm, Lingyun Tower is reflected in it, just like a wonderful painting of a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.
