Main attractions

Baishi cave

Baishite is a typical karst cave. Inside the cave, there are many stalagmites, hanging bells and milk, and grotesque rocks, which are full of wit: Optimus Prime is resplendent and majestic; lotus goddess of mercy sits with a smile on her face and joins hands to send blessings; flower and fruit mountain is full of flowers, and you can still hear the faint fragrance. The water curtain cave is full of silver, the streams are full of light and laughter, the eighteen Arhats are perfect, sitting in Weisheng heaven, and the fairy tower is about to fall, which makes people feel like they are in a yaochi lake and enjoying the year of heaven. From the Tang and Song Dynasties to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, this cave has become a scenic spot admired by county officials and left many famous poems and travel notes . The white stone bell written by Zhu Ying, the crown prince of Ming Dynasty, says: "the pines in Baisha are deep and winding, and the whale sounds several times in the morning and dusk; the moon is long and the moon is falling down on the ridge gorge, and the wind is blowing to the pillow; the old monk is determined to go out, and the birds in the forest are more willing to leave the forest; the clouds are less comforting for the guests who come back, but after listening to it, the sad dream fails." In the Qing Dynasty, Sheng min, the magistrate of Guiyang County, praised the poem "you Bai Shi Yan", saying: "the Songhuang rock gully is full of shade, and the different scenery has deep ancient caves. The hollow Valley is quiet, the mountain birds answer, the cold pool is quiet, and the water is full of dragons. What's the heart of the hairpin group when it comes? I have a dream when I go back. For a few days, the official court had nothing to do with it, and it was worthy of relieving the heat. To taste the poems, you can see that you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of BAISHIYAN with a relaxed, quiet and comfortable mood.

BAISHIYAN is not only a scenic spot to visit, but also a natural guarantee for county officials and people to avoid chaos in Ming and Qing Dynasties. The existing stone wall in BAISHIYAN was built by Zhu Ying, the crown prince of zuodu imperial envoy of the inner capital Chayuan of the Ming Dynasty when Emperor Xianzong was the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, who used the experience of local people in fighting against banditry in Maping, Yangshuo, Cangwu, Lipu and other counties when he was the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi. The stone wall is several feet high and has gun holes. There is no iron gate in the wall. Close the iron gate tightly and never open it. There are stone stairs and lookout points on the wall. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the people in Waisha village and nearby relied on this rock to save their lives. In recent years, some people have been approved to raise funds to develop BAISHIYAN as a tourist attraction. There are curved paths, small bridges and cement footpaths in the cave, which are convenient for tourists. Each scenic spot is equipped with different color lights, which make the scenery more beautiful and make the tourists forget to return. BAISHIYAN cave is a large and thick mountain, and its geographical location is of great military significance. There are also shuitongyan and yangtianyan in the cave. The main cave can pass through the exit of the back cave, and yangtianyan becomes a natural pore in the cave. After the 1960s, a communication company of Guangzhou Military Region of the Chinese people's Liberation Army stationed here and established a military communication relay station, which made BAISHIYAN more mysterious and attracted people to enjoy it. However, at that time, the garrison was only allowed to visit the external facilities of the cave, but not the internal structures. Baishi academy is located in the hillside on the right side of Baishi cave. It is one of the three ancient academies in Rucheng. The academy is built on the first floor, and is hidden in the forest. The winding path in the courtyard is quiet and elegant, and the wind is light and the birds are singing. Walking on the path in the courtyard is like rolling a scroll and enjoying ancient poems. It is clear and joyful, with a vast heart. In the 25th year of Jiajing reign (1547), the vigorous characters such as "BIE Yi Dong Tian", "Yong Le Qu" and "the mountain is as quiet as archaic" were engraved on the stone wall. They are vigorous, natural and full of details, and are still very eye-catching. This academy was one of the most famous academies in Hunan Province during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It cultivated four Jinshi: Zhu Hai and Zhu Ying, who were both Jinshi in the tenth year of the Ming Dynasty. They were equally famous as the capital. At that time, they were known as shuangfengdengzhi. Zhu yingguan went to the imperial envoy of zuodu in duchayuan, and the emperor bestowed a gift to the crown prince and Taibao. His deeds were recorded in the biography of Ming history. Zhu Shoufu, the son of Zhu Ying, has become a scholar of the ugly branch in the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Shoushu became renchenke Jinshi in Ming Dynasty. At present, Zhu Liangcai, the founding General of the people's Republic of China, studied in BAISHIYAN academy when he was a child. After growing up, he made immortal contributions to the cause of the Chinese people's revolution and was known as the "Confucian general in the army".

Baishi Temple

Located next to Baishi academy, built in the late Tang Dynasty, it is one of the most famous Buddhist holy places in Rucheng and even in southern Hunan. In the past, there were nuns eating fast and chanting Buddhism in the nunnery. The incense was very popular, and there was an endless stream of tourists and believers. They were famous in Hunan, Guangdong and Jiangxi provinces. It is said that there was once a stone eye beside the nunnery, which could produce oil and salt by itself. It was only enough for the people in the nunnery to eat. If there were more people, there would be more. If there were fewer people, there would be less. It was not allowed to take away money. Otherwise, it will dry up automatically and no more oil and salt will be produced. There are three or eight meter high statues of Tathagata Buddha, two or eight meter high Bodhisattvas of Yangong, and six or nine meter high lotus of Avalokitesvara in the nunnery. These compassionate Holy Spirits are shaped in golden light, which are lifelike. Ancient bells, ancient paintings, ancient wells and ancient basins in the nunnery have their own merits.

Ancient battlefield of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom

On the mountain outside the entrance of BAISHIYAN, there is shidakai, the wing of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, which is an ancient battlefield to resist the Qing army. The battlefield covers an area of more than 30 mu, surrounded by stone walls, gates, battlestacks, trenches and passages. Today, the battlefield remains in my mind. When Shi Dakai led his troops to fight with the Qing army for seven days and nights, the people yelled and the horses hissed, and the fierce killing spirit of swords and swords was still in front of us, which was soul stirring. During the long march of the Chinese workers' and peasants' Red Army, Zhu De led some officers and soldiers of the first front army of the Red Army to camp here, leaving a powerful hand of "long live the Red Army" on the stone plaque of the ancient battlefield. Today, the word Zhu De is still clear.

Shuitongyan, yangtianyan

Located at the foot of the ancient battlefield mountain, there are two stone gates in the cave. On the right side of the first stone gate, there is a Bodhisattva. On the second gate, you can walk up 99 steps to the cave plane. The widest part is more than 2 mu, with a total length of 2 km. There are many stalagmites in the cave. There is a pond rippling with clear water.

Taibaodi

Located in Waisha village, Waisha Township, hundreds of meters away from BAISHIYAN, it is a county-level cultural relics protection unit. In the first year of Jiajing reign of Ming Dynasty (1552), it was built to praise Zhu Ying, the crown prince of Ming Dynasty. It is of brick and wood structure and three Bay palace style pavilion. Zhang Tingyu, the Minister of the Ministry of officials of the Ming Dynasty, inscribed a gold plaque with the title of "a world minister's old home", which is vigorous and warm, makes people enjoy it endlessly.

Zhu Ying's tomb

Located in Xiangtang, Waisha village, two li away from BAISHIYAN, it is a cultural relic protection unit at the county level. It was built in 1485, the 21st year of Chenghua in Ming Dynasty. The body of the tomb faces east in the West. The front of the tomb is concave. The height of the tomb is 6 meters and the width is 13 meters. In front of the tomb, there are two blue stone tombstones with inscriptions on them. On the left side, the inscription is written by Zhou Hongmo, Minister of rites of the Ming Dynasty, and on the right side, the inscription is written by Huang Yuan, Minister of government of Hunan Province. In front of the tomb, there used to be a blue stone relief archway with a number of stone carvings, such as tortoise, crane, ox, horse, elephant and so on. Zhu Ying, a loyal and honest official, is admired.

In addition, near the BAISHIYAN scenic spot, there are ten scenes of the outer sand appointed by Emperor Xianzong of the Ming Dynasty for Zhu Ying to play. They are: Xiaoshu of Guanshan, Qingyun of Maling, Yupeng of Daqing, Seng Zhong of Chan temple, Chungeng of Donglong, evening view of Xifeng, Qingcui of Zhuyuan, Qiuhui of Chiyue, rain of Bifeng and sound of pines behind the house.
