Tourism characteristics

The Shilin was formed in the Cambrian period more than 100 million years ago. After a long period of crustal movement and long-term karst infiltration, the bottom layer of the Shilin was uplifted. The Yanshanian granite intruded into the bottom layer of the Paleozoic, resulting in a piece of eroded rock and hydrothermal vein. The vein is composed of tin, iron and quartz. Therefore, there is more than 1000 years of modern tin mining history from the Song Dynasty. Most of the stone pillars were withered and weathered by the bryophytes lying on the surface, which dyed the stone black, making the stone forest black and white, very beautiful. The stone buds, pillars and peaks in the stone forest are of strange shapes and ingenious workmanship. The paths in the scenic area extend in all directions, which can be said to change scenery step by step, making you dizzying. There are many natural landscapes, such as "fortune turns", "sheep turns back", "frog looks at the moon", "a line of sky" and "nestle up to the stone". Some are like "peacock opens the screen", and some are like "dinosaur walks". As the saying goes: three parts are similar, seven parts are imaginary, the more you think about it, the more you think about it. There's a saying that goes well, "you can see the mountains in the horizontal direction and the peaks on the side. The distance is different from the height. You don't know the true face of the stone forest. You can only walk in the stone forest." Maybe when you walk into the stone forest, you will pay attention to the natural and beautiful scenery of the stone forest, but the humanistic landscape of the stone forest is more attractive. In the Han Dynasty more than 2000 years ago, the imperial court paid more attention to the sealing of the river (today's Hejiang River) than the Lijiang River. At that time, the sealing included Xie Mu, Fuchuan, Hezhou, Fengyang (Xindu), Fengkai and so on. The culture in the fengjiang River Basin was quite developed, and the degree of civilization at that time was higher than that in Guilin and Guangzhou. Therefore, the literati, heroes and celebrities gathered here. Hezhou was in the middle of the fengjiang River Basin, and the transportation was very important The beautiful mountains and rivers make it a natural place for famous people to gather. Hezhou Shilin has left many famous footprints in history, such as Chen Yuanguang, a Hezhou scholar at the end of the year and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, Mo Xuanqing, the number one scholar in Lingnan during the middle Tang Dynasty, Yue Fei, the national hero of the Song Dynasty, and Zhou Dunyi, the leader of Neo Confucianism Very distinctive stone forest culture.
