brief introduction

Longzhu lake is a large lake connected with Shuiyueyan. There are more than 20 hectares. The East, North and west sides of the lake are surrounded by stone hills. To the south is a vast field. Two stone hills stand side by side in the East, leaving a gap in the middle. It is also the entrance of Longzhu lake. Along the foot of the stone hill beside the lake, there is a road around the lake. It enters from the East, bypasses the north and west of the lake, and then goes out from the south. By the side of the lake, willow trees line up, the lake is clear, the fish can be counted, and the mountains can be reflected. Twelve large and small caves were found in the stone mountain around the lake; five natural villages were formed in the stone mountain group, some of which were artificially used and built to become military fortresses. Surrounded by stone mountains around the lake, the lake water is clear, rippling blue waves, weeping willows flying by the lake, and the Huating Pavilion in the lake is independent. The stalactites in caves are in various shapes, and the grotesque rocks are magnificent. To the south is a vast field. The whole scenic spot is integrated with lake light, and has the scenery of "seemingly isolated from the world". It has become a tourist attraction since the Qing Dynasty.

Xu Xiake, a famous Chinese geographer and traveler, visited Longzhu lake on July 27 of the lunar calendar in the year of Dingchou in Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty (1637). He left a record of praising the landscape of Longyan: "there are many stone peaks from north to south, like a line of banners, forming a boundary."

The cave of Longzhu lake is full of stalactites. Among them, there is a zanglong mountain in the west of Longzhu lake, in which there are three layers of caves, the bottom is Wolong cave, the cave has a dragon bed, the middle layer is Dragon Cave, and the upper layer is Huilong cave. There is also a strange Phoenix cave in Fenghuang mountain. There are water and land caves in the cave, stretching for several kilometers. It's really a mystery. Mr. Luo Libin said in his poem, "the Dragon bed lies in the Dragon Cave in Longyan, and the son-in-law rides the dragon to the four directions. Today, there is no company from qiuqing, and the heroines will be the best." There is an nunnery on the roadside of the stone side of zanglong mountain. In the middle of the nunnery, there is a lifelike Guanyin Bodhisattva with clear corridors. She is flying in the clouds, floating in the middle and upper part of the cave. Her head, neck, hands and feet are covered with gauze, and her right hand is holding a pure Narcissus bottle, sprinkling water to help the world and the people. The stone mantle at the top of the cave is like the roof of an Islamic church. Avalokitesvara

It is 7 meters high, 3.5 meters wide and 3 meters above the ground. The shape and color of Longzhu Guanyin are natural and rare in the world. Longzhu lake also has its own special food: Longzhu rice wine brewed from the spring water of Xianhu cave, known as saimaotai; black grass carp, a specialty of Longzhu lake, is delicious, tender and refreshing when eating; melon core fish of the size of thumb finger is fried immediately from the lake water, crisp and fragrant, with endless flavor; there is also a unique taro seedling, which can be fried after half a day without processing and salting, and smooth and crisp Refreshing; the snails in the lake also have a unique taste different from that of other places. The Longzhu Lake scenic spot has been open to the outside world for more than 20 years. Its beautiful scenery of lakes and mountains and the ancient characteristics of Dongyou village attract many tourists inside and outside the area. Mr. Mo naiqun sighed: "there is a legacy model for West Lake irrigation, which says that the dike is named Bai and su. I went to Longhu to look for a miracle, and then I knew that the West Lake had not been allowed."

The legend of dragon

The name of "Longzhu Lake" is elegant and charming. The origin of "Longzhu Lake" is unknown, but it does have its own origin. According to research, there is a "Mabi spring" in wayaotou, liangmishan village, two kilometers east of Longzhu lake. The spring is more than three feet high, which is known as the natural big dragon spring. It flows into Longzhu Lake through Tianlong village. Longzhu lake covers an area of more than 300 mu, surrounded by nine clusters of big stone mountains, which looks like a Jiulong pearl. Water like, mountain like and shape like, so it is called "Longzhu Lake".

It is said that in ancient times, it was a barren land, without lakes and rivers, where rain was used to get food. One year, there was a severe drought, and the sun was on the ground, so the people had to burn incense and pray for rain. When an old immortal passed by, he saw the tragedy and felt pity for it. He hastily summoned ten dragons. The dragons fell to the ground and spat water together. In an instant, a wide Dragon Lake was formed. The lake continued to flow to the dry land, and the dying crops came back to life and reaped a good harvest. When the Jade Emperor learned of this, he denounced the immortals and the dragons for being disrespectful and descending to the earth without permission, and issued an imperial edict to punish them severely. The old immortal was removed from his post on the spot and was not allowed to return to the heavenly palace. The dragons landed one after another and turned into nine big stone mountains. They were not allowed to fly elsewhere. At that time, Bruce Lee had already dived into the lake and was not found by the gods, avoiding a fatal accident. In order to commemorate the achievements of the dragons, Bruce Lee spared no effort to spit out two dragon balls, one representing himself and the other representing nine dragons, which means that the Dragon Lake was formed by the spray of water from the dragons. After the Pearl was formed, later generations changed its name to "Longzhu Lake".

Is Bruce Lee still in Longzhu lake? Is Longzhu Lake Xiaolong's Dragon Palace? According to the ancient records, "a dragon can be as big as the heaven and earth, or as small as a thread and a needle.". It is not easy to find the real "Little Dragon". In Longzhu lake, the figure of "Little Dragon" is in the middle of the lake. Please see: "dragon body" is connected by seven small islands with three bends and four curves. It is about 50 meters long and 5 meters wide, which is a small spirit line. The two "dragon balls" 50 meters above, 9 meters in diameter, have become the concept that the emperor of the dragon is the son of heaven and constitute the "Nine Five" of the days. The dragon body is a natural structure composed of lower stone and upper mud. It's thought-provoking and can't help but be surprised by the uncanny workmanship of nature. Among the seven islands, there are Peach Blossom Island and Acacia island People can taste the food culture and tea culture in the tea pavilions and pavilions on the island Walking in the arms of the dragon has another taste. Longzhu lake, the lake is not deep, the deepest less than 3 meters, shallow general about 2 meters. But this fairyland made by the dragon is very beautiful. When the wind is calm, the blue lake is like a piece of Jasper falling from the sky, more like the jade slurry in the yaochi lake. All year round, season like spring, warm in winter and cool in summer, clear water bottom, boating on the lake, safe and comfortable. Whether Longzhu lake belongs to little dragon's Dragon Palace seems to be the periphery of the Dragon Palace. A look: a piece of brick like non brick, pile like non pile of boulders, irregularly arranged in order. In the crevice, there grow clusters of low aquatic plants, duck tongue, ox tongue and other grass. The grass sways in the water and dances gracefully to welcome the boat. At this moment, the big fish and the small fish are shuttling back and forth, jumping on the lake to welcome the guests, and sometimes jumping on the boat. The kind-hearted people look at the fish for a moment, and then put the fish back into the lake to return the joy of heaven. It has been known that there are more than 100 species of aquatic animals and plants in the lake, including giant turtle, giant turtle and giant fish. More than ten years ago, a worker accidentally cast a net in the lake and caught a golden carp of more than ten jin. The catcher twists the gills of the fish with both hands, and it is estimated that it is safe to capture the fish alive. As soon as the fish's tail swung, it hit the corner of the catcher's mouth, which made his lips and teeth bleed. As soon as his hands were loosened, the golden carp jumped into the lake again, leaving a flash of gold. Some old people said: under the stone, there may be the Dragon Palace. Carp seems to be the God of fish in the "Dragon Palace". Without carp for thousands of years, it can't grow into a big fish of more than ten kilograms. Those tortoises and turtles are as big as dung dustpan. When many tourists go boating in the lake, they can occasionally have a good look, which adds to the mystery of the "Dragon Palace" under the lake. According to the management staff of the management area, they often climb up the road and look up at the silver full moon in the sky in the late night. When people come here to snap its shell, it doesn't move. When he searched for juao for the second time, juao was gone. Therefore, the legend has the feeling of "seeing Ao is a blessing". Local people think: these giant aquatic animals swim from the deep dragon palace to the surface of the lake. Do they prove that there is a "Dragon Palace" deep in the rocks at the bottom of the lake? Do the ten dragons and the old immortals often drink and have fun in the Dragon Palace? Longzhu lake is an auspicious place. Every summer, the lake is very busy. Boys and girls help the old and the young, play in the water, cool the water into the heart, and enjoy the time. The summer heat disappears and the fatigue of the day goes away. Looking back at the lake, people feel that they are in the holy water of Xianshan. Longzhu lake, the scenic spot, is planned and decorated step by step. Strive for perfection.
