Detailed introduction

Mahu lake is the third largest natural lake in Sichuan, which is as famous as Qionghai Lake and Lugu Lake. It is a large natural deep-water lake on the plateau, with a water area of 7.5 square kilometers. The altitude is 1113 meters, the average water depth is more than 70 meters, and the deepest is 180 meters. It is said that in the past, people used strong horses to tie up with the shore of the lake. The dragon in the lake came out and made friends with each other. Later, they produced different horses. It was named Mahu because there was a dragon in the lake, also known as Longhu. Mahu is surrounded by mountains on three sides, with beautiful scenery. In the east of the lake, five horses return to the nest mountain, just like five horses with their hooves raised; in Hunan, the Qinglong mountain is like a blue dragon; in the northwest of the lake, Laojun Mountain is out of sight; in the southwest of the lake, three mountains are like Jiaolong, grabbing the emerald treasure of the horse and lake, and competing for supremacy; in Hubei, the Tianran stone dam formed by basalt is like a surging wave. In the lake cave, sow lying on the cliff, goose flying, five horses returning to the trough, big comb month, Tianmen Xiongchen, blue snake driving turtle scenic spots scattered around the lake, people can't see.

In the East, West and south of Mahu, there are high mountain barriers, and in the north, there are natural rock dams formed by the accumulation of basalt and limestone fragments. The harbor of the lake area is deep and secluded, the lake bank is tortuous and changeable, the limestone at the bottom of the lake is smooth and fine, without silt, and the lake water is clear and transparent, without any pollution. The lakeside is surrounded by tea gardens and forests, with green trees, beautiful scenery. Jinshajiang gorge has steep mountains, fast flowing river, towering cliffs and forest of strange rocks, which is extremely dangerous. The area is inhabited by Yi people, villages with ethnic characteristics, historical and cultural relics, which add interest to the scenic spot.

There are a large number of primitive forests in Mahu scenic area, with towering ancient trees, winding vines, lichen and moss everywhere, full of primitive and simple atmosphere.

It is said that the famous Meng Huo in the romance of the Three Kingdoms was the leader of the Yi people in the late Han Dynasty. The story of Zhuge Liang's seven capture of Meng Huo happened here. In order to commemorate this event, later generations built a Hailong temple on Menghuo Island, the largest island in the lake. The main hall of the temple is Menghuo hall, in which the statue of Menghuo is worshipped, while the back hall is dedicated to Guanyin Bodhisattva. The Yi people here have been civilized earlier, and the Han culture has been integrated into their daily life. Therefore, the customs they follow include both Yi customs and Han customs. For example, the most popular festival every year is the torch festival of the Yi people, but at the same time, they worship Guanyin Bodhisattva. The Guanyin Festival on June 19 of the lunar calendar is also very busy.

The golden turtle plays in the water

According to expert research, a long time ago, leiboma lake was not a lake, but a river. I don't know when, when a strong earthquake occurred in Huanglang area, the mountains in the lower reaches of the river collapsed, and the mud and stone cut off the river. It was like building a dam to block the river. The water in the river was blocked and soon formed a lake. Today, mahuan is 5.63 kilometers long in the north and 1.5 kilometers wide in the East and West, as evidenced by its river shape.

To enjoy the scenery of Ma Lake, the golden Turtle Island in the lake is a must. Golden Turtle Island is a small island surrounded by water in Mahu lake, covering an area of about 11 mu. From a distance, golden Turtle Island is oval in shape. There are several prominent places around the island, just like the head, tail and limbs of a tortoise. Its overall state is a big tortoise playing in the lake, so it is called golden turtle playing in the water by scholars.

The golden turtle paddles in the water, gets on the ingenious battery boat from the lakeside, and arrives at the golden Turtle Island in 20 minutes. The boat landed at the tail of the tortoise. When we got out of the boat, there were stone ladders leading to the deep forest. Step up to the Hailong temple built on the back of the golden turtle. According to records, in the 17th year of Wanli (158 A.D.) of the Ming Dynasty, people built the Hailong temple on the golden Turtle Island. There are yuhuanglou, ziweilou, Lingguan hall, Guanyin hall, Daxiong hall, Menghuo hall and Sanxian hall in the temple, with five halls on two floors. Among them, Menghuo hall is dedicated to the statue of Meng Huo, the leader of the Yi nationality in the Three Kingdoms period. It is a temple dedicated to the statue of Yi nationality in China. After the ups and downs of different times, in addition to the blue stone slabs and big trees on the ground, other buildings in Hailong temple are not original. Most of the five halls on the second floor are incomplete. The hall of Meng Huo is well preserved, but the statue of Meng Huo was in the early days of liberation
