It belongs to a typical Danxia landform, and is known as "the northern part of the country and the southern part of Wuyi Mountain". The area is inlaid with the emerald-like Shimen Lake, and the clear water reflects the Danshan Mountain, which is magnificent and beautiful, and has the reputation of "masculine is the best in the world and feminine is unparalleled in the world"; The area has a long history. In the Song Dynasty, it was called "Bamin Scenic Spot" and "the first scenic spot in the upper reaches" (the first scenic spot in the upper reaches of Tingjiang River, Minjiang River and Jiulong River). In ancient times, there were plaques inscribed by celebrities and heroes such as Ji Xiaolan and Lin Zexu, and now there are stone carvings of famous people such as Zhao Puchu and Rodin, which are rich in humanities. Liancheng Mountains and Waters 1. Guanzhi Mountain, a national key scenic spot, is named after it looks like an ancient Qiguan. Guanzhi Mountain stands flat in the east of Liancheng City, and "it's high without connecting with the post, and it's far without relying on the situation." . Fiona Fang, a scenic spot with 123 square kilometers, is a collection of mountains, water, rocks, caves, springs and temples, and is known as "the best in the world for masculinity and the best in the world for femininity". Guanzhi Mountain Scenic Area consists of five scenic spots: Guanzhi Mountain, Shimen Lake, Zhu'an Zhai, Qishizhai and Jiulong Lake. At present, Guanzhi Mountain, Shimen Lake and Zhu'an Zhai have been opened to tourists. 1. Guanzhi Mountain Guanzhi Mountain, located in the eastern suburb of the city, was called "Dongtian Stone" in the Song Dynasty. In the 24th year of Yuan Zhizheng (1364), Yin Ma Zhou Qing of Daixian led thousands of people up the mountain, and opened up 13 scenic spots, including Cangyu Gorge, Yunzhan, Danti, Guanqing and Taoyuan, and carved stones with seal script or official script. Ma Zhou-qing concentrated on the mountain scenery, observing the mountains and mountains, and all kinds of stones were imposing, looking like ten thousand petals of bright lotus flowers, swaying in the wind between the green labels and green covers, so he renamed it "Lotus Peak". The high wall of Dizhuyan in Qianshan is upright, dignified and neat, and looks like a "parallel crown". Ma Zhouqing inscribed "parallel crown" as the title of the phase. By the Ming Dynasty, Huang Gongfu, a native of Yi who was proficient in ancient Chinese prose, especially in cursive calligraphy, liked to travel around famous mountains and rivers and chant beautiful scenery, carved the word "GuanPian" on this topic. In ancient times, there was a name of a spirit beast, which was like a sheep with a single horn, also known as "God Sheep" and "Avengers", and could distinguish between right and wrong. If you meet a wicked person, you can touch him with a horn, and the judge can judge right and wrong accordingly. In the Spring and Autumn Period, King Wen of Chu once acquired this beast, and made it into a crown according to its shape, which was called "Ciguan". Qin destroyed Chu, and gave it to the ancient scholar. After the Han, Tang, Song and Ming Dynasties, it was always the special hat-making for censors and judicial officers like Yushi, so it was also called "Fa Guan". Although the imperial censor of the Qing dynasty did not wear this crown, the official clothes were still embroidered with the pattern of arrogance, indicating the nature of being a law enforcement supervisor. Because the meaning of Pian Guan is just in line with the people's desire for selfless law enforcement, fairness and honesty in the past dynasties, mountain climbing is called "Shangguan Pian", so Lianfeng Mountain is gradually forgotten, and Guanqing Mountain has become a proper name. Traveling in front of the mountain, you can go straight to the foot of the mountain with a light bus, and climb up the stairs. The scenic spots follow each other, reflecting the distance and each has its own characteristics, which makes visitors dizzying. 2. Shimen Lake Shimen Lake is located in the southeast of Guanzhi Mountain, and is closely adjacent to Guanzhi Mountain Scenic Area. It was formerly called "Shimen Rock" and is the location of "Shimen Suyun", the second scene of Liancheng's past eight scenes. Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, Liancheng suburb was seriously short of water, knowing that Shimenyan was always flowing with clear water, but it could not be cited. There used to be a folk song: "Shimenyan, the back of an arch bridge, and a pair of mosquitoes and dragons. If someone can lock them up, they don't have to eat chaff for generations." The large and small mosquito dragon mountain is the main mountain of Shimen Rock. The mosquito dragon is locked for water control, and the surrounding people suffer from drought. Solving farmland irrigation and people's domestic water use has become a strong voice. On September 3, 197, the Shimenyan Reservoir Engineering Headquarters was established in Liancheng County, and the construction was officially started on September 15, and the construction task was completed in May 1975. The upstream basin of Shimenyan Reservoir covers an area of 4.4 square kilometers, and the main channel is 3 kilometers long. The normal water level elevation is 72.2 meters, and the water surface area is 23. 29 hectares. The general commander of the project is Li Zhenjing, the first secretary of the county party committee at that time. The dam locks mosquitoes and dragons, and the stone gate stores jade beads. Shimenyan has finally become an artificial lake with mountains and rivers and charming scenery. The water is winding with the mountains, and the harbor forks are staggered; The mountains are close to the water, and the deep valleys are vertical and horizontal; The clear water and green hills set each other off, and the willows on the bank of Xia help each other; Swimming and dancing, invited by Prime Minister Bai Pinghong; A lonely island in the water is better than Penglai. There really is a saying, "The water is like an eye, and the mountains are gathering eyebrows. Where do you want to ask pedestrians?" Eyebrows and eyes are shining ",which is a desirable place. During the boating, tourists listen to the sound of warblers on both sides of the strait, watch a group of wild ducks wandering around, caress the green hills under the water, and enjoy themselves while chasing the clouds. It is really difficult to describe the flavor in the meantime. Sometimes, the reeds at the mouth of the valley are like screens, which seems to be the end. However, when you operate the boat and lightly dial the "screen", you suddenly get a new realm. Visitors skillfully use poetry to praise: "There is no way to recover from the mountains and heavy waters, and there is another day when you lightly dial the green screen." 3. Zhu'an Zhai, Zhu'an Zhai is 5 kilometers northeast of the county seat and only 1.5 kilometers away from Guanzhi Mountain. Here, the peaks stand upright and the valleys are deep and the springs are quiet. The local people call it "Jiewu Village", also called "Matou Mountain". Also known as "Zhu'an Zhai", it means bamboo to report peace. According to historical records, in July of the seventh year of Xianfeng in Qing Dynasty (1957), Shi Dakai troops of Taiping Army captured Liancheng, and on September 29th of the eighth year of Xianfeng (1858), Shibu captured Guanzhi Mountain. In the year of Xianfeng alone, the Taiping Army entered and left Liancheng three times, and Zhu'an Zhai became a refuge for the rich squires. In 1933, 3 years after the village was founded, the Red Army of Workers and Peasants marched to western Fujian and entered Liancheng. The Red Army led the villagers to capture Zhu'an Zhai and distributed food and furniture to the poor. In Zhu'an Zhai, 39 houses, such as halls, bedrooms, kitchens and granaries, built according to the mountains, were destroyed by the war, and remains are still preserved. Zhu'an Zhai is located in the northeast of Guanzhi Mountain, the main scenic spot, with a height of 66 meters and a Fiona Fang of 4.2 square kilometers. It's full of wild interests. Close to the core area, the pines are getting denser and the mountains are getting steeper. Moss, ferns and lichens are distributed in the Shi Gen of rock crevices and the valley bottom of Jiantou, which set off the peaks and hills. On the other hand, Zhu'an Zhai presents a paramilitary defensive humanistic landscape. The original intention of the developer is to rely on this stone to flow upward, the mountains are full of green pines and bamboos, the huts are short, the scenery is quiet, the classics are read, and the mind is broadened to entertain itself; In the event of troubled times, women, children, old and young can be settled by the dangers of this cliff and the firmness of the walled wall. As a result, a number of strong young men were hired to hang rocks for years, and the rocks were attached to open the way. Like tattoos, they carved soft ridges and curves between the steep mountain walls. Zhu'an Zhai's natural scenic spots, one danger, two wonders and three spectacular, are called "three wonders" of landscape, which are rare in the world. Second, the world's A-class nature reserve-Meihua Mountain is called "Emerald in the Northern Returning Desert Belt" by Chinese and foreign experts.

Here, the virgin forest is dense, and precious tree species and medicinal materials abound. Rare birds and animals such as South China Tiger and the rare Papilio aurea breed and inhabit here. Meihua Mountain combines the beauty of Huangshan Mountain, the danger of Huashan Mountain, the beauty of Lijiang River and the simplicity of Xishuangbanna.
