A 27 meter long and 3 meter wide relief is placed in the center of the connecting passage, with the content of Tang Xuanzong's Fengtai mountain.

Surrounding scenic spots

Longtan Lake

To the north of tianwai village is Longtan Lake, which was built in 1942 when the Japanese invaded China. The reservoir capacity is about 360000 cubic meters, and the dam length is 165 meters. It turns out that this is a large stone flat with wonderful scenery, including sword box stone, immortal stone, huiwo spring, etc., as well as the non attack chapter in Mozi, which was written and engraved by Mr. Feng Yuxiang when he was in Mount Tai to oppose the Japanese invasion of China. The reservoir forms a plain lake in the mountains. The scenery of the mountain and the light of the lake make each other interesting. In summer and autumn, the water overflows from the dam to form a waterfall, which makes people relaxed and happy. It is a good place for tourists to spend their leisure and summer, and also an open-air swimming pool for winter swimming and summer swimming.

After the reservoir, the East-West jiandai bridge is coming. Taishan forest farm was built in 1964, which means to build Mount Tai. The east end of the bridge is the ticket office for tourists to enter the mountain.

Xiangyou Bay

There is a small water bay in the valley on the southeast side of the bridge. There are layers of oil flowers floating in it all the year round. People call it "fragrant oil bay". It is said that there is an oil peddler at the foot of Mount Tai. When he came here to sell oil, he saw two old men playing chess and stood by. Suddenly, the sun was pressing down the mountain. The old man said, "it's time for young people to go home." The peddler looked back and saw that both the carrying pole and the oil bucket were rotten. After returning to the village, the villagers did not know each other. They only heard the old people say that a man who sold oil entered Mount Tai hundreds of years ago and never came back. The oil peddler knew that he had strayed into the fairyland. When he returned to the fairyland, the immortal disappeared. On the flying crow peak in the northwest, there was the immortal shadow of LV Dongbin and Zhang Guolao. They arched from east to west, and they still remember it today.

Bailongchi

In the valley to the north of jiandai bridge is the famous Bailong pool. It is said that this is the youngest son of the Dragon King of the East China Sea. Xiaobailong lives in Zhenshan to control the water. Here, there is a hanging stream from Baizhang cliff. It is like a jade dragon taking off. It flows into the pool along the gorge. There is a huge stone in the north of the pool, with steep cliffs and carved "xuangui stone". When a mountain torrent breaks out, the huge stone floats like a boat in the torrent; when the rain is over and the sky is clear, it is like a giant turtle coming out of the pool and lying on the bank to dry its back, so it is also called "stone boat", commonly known as "hanging turtle stone". On the east side of the stone, the cliff is cut like a cliff, and the stone gorge passes through the middle. In the north is Sanyuan stone, which is engraved with characters such as "bailongchi" and "Longtan". There are inscriptions on this stone and xuangui stone. Gu Yanwu, a historian in the early Qing Dynasty, once obtained 15 titles of Song Dynasty, and later 16 titles. Most of them still exist.

Bailongchi has a long history. According to the inscriptions in the Song Dynasty, from the Han and Tang Dynasties to the Song Dynasty, emperors of all dynasties sent important officials here to throw gold dragons and jade slips to burn incense and pray for rain. In 1082, the fifth year of Yuanfeng in the Song Dynasty, Emperor Shenzong granted Bailong "yuanjigong" and built a Shenlong temple. Yuan gun, the magistrate of Tai'an in the Ming Dynasty, also wrote a Ode to the White Dragon: "the pool of the white dragon is unpredictable. If there is prayer, it should be prayed. Grain food, living people, four territory both houses. The spirit inherits the spirit and worships the merit forever. " In 2000, the song style stone chamber yuanjigong temple was rebuilt on the original site.

According to folklore, little white dragon once became a strong young man and went to work in Dainan Tian family. When Tian Laohan saw that he was hardworking and honest, he betrothed his daughter to him. Bailong watered the field every day, but he couldn't hear the sound of the windlass. The neighbors were very puzzled, so they spied on the white dragon. They saw that the white dragon was several feet long, with ten thousand silver scales, and the cold light was dazzling. So people exclaimed that it would be handed down. Little white dragon see things leaked, bid farewell to his wife to live in white dragon pool. It is said that in ancient times, it was very effective to ask for rain and snow here, so since the Han and Tang Dynasties, officials and people of all dynasties often asked for rain and snow here.

There are zhaojunling in the East, Feiya peak in the west, luoguwan in the front and Heilongtan in the back of bailongchi. Every year in the late summer and autumn, you can see the black dragon, the white dragon, the Shentan and the Shuifu, the clouds and smoke huff and puff, thunder and lightning. It is known as the "Dragon Cave rain" by the ancients and listed as one of the eight scenic spots in Tai'an.

Black Dragon Pool

From there, up the valley is the black dragon pool. In the north of the pool, high cliffs stand, surrounded by cliffs. This is dongbaizhang cliff. The water of Zhongxi river flows down from the top of the cliff like the Tianhe river. It goes straight to the cave under the cliff like the roaring of a tiger, the singing of a dragon, the splashing of pearls and jade. It is also a spectacle. People call it "the old dragon's nest". Because of the waterfall, it looks like the ancient literati's Chushen, also known as "Tianshen spring". The long waterfall flows down the valley to Heilongtan. Shitan is known as "Heilongtan" because of its perennial stream impact, big belly, small mouth, shaped like a tile altar, several feet deep and wide. It is said that it is connected with the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea. In the west of Longtan, there is xibaizhang cliff, and in the south, there is nanbaizhang cliff. Every summer and autumn, there is continuous rain, and three waterfalls are like jade dragons flying down from the clouds. In ancient times, they were called "Yunlong Sanxian", which is one of the ten natural landscapes of Mount Tai. Therefore, there is a saying in Mount Tai: "it's not too bad to travel in the rain. It's even more beautiful when you travel in the rain." In the midsummer of 2000, a reporter from Tai'an daily found many natural murals on the Baizhang cliff of laolongwo, such as flying horses, beautiful women taking a bath, carp jumping over the dragon's gate, fierce tiger coming out of the mountain and the famous world painting of Mona Lisa.

On the dongbaizhang cliff, there is a stone bridge across Xixi. It is a crescent shaped stone arch bridge created by warlord zhang Peirong in 1925, just like a rainbow lying in waves. In addition, there are red arrow bars on both sides, which are exquisite and unique. There are stone pavilions on both sides of the bridge, facing each other from afar, with "cloud water" in the East and "wind thunder" in the West. It was built in 1965 for tourists to have a rest and enjoy the scenery.

Yin Yang boundary

Because the bottom of Qiaobei stream is gentle, the stream comes and suddenly flies down the juejian stream, which looks like the backward flow of the Milky way. It is full of clouds and fog, which is magnificent. On the edge of the cliff of the large granite, there are intrusive dikes, forming several white parallel lines across the East and West. If visitors venture to cross this line, they will slip down the deep stream and die. They are named "Yin Yang boundary". It is said that this is the northern boundary of the underworld to the west of the Nai river. In order to prevent accidents, Mr. Feng Yuxiang once set up an iron fence in jiebei when he was in Mount Tai. Later, the iron fence was destroyed, and now the fence is set up again.

Between the bridge and the fence is a vast stone terrace, which is smooth and level by the torrents and streams. During the Republic of China, Wu Mai wrote "wash our country's shame" in this big book, and Gong Rufeng wrote "return our mountains and rivers" in cursive script. Most visitors sit in and enjoy the scenery.

Tourists, please note that in the northwest of Heilongtan is the famous fan cliff. Starting from here, there are 1500 stone steps along the way, and the journey is 3 kilometers. Pandao was built by Taoist Liang Hongjun during the period of the Republic of China. In 1995, Yingsheng village was rebuilt.

Wuji Temple

From the west end of Changshou bridge to the north is Wuji temple. When Zhang Zongchang was in charge of Lu in 1925, Zhang Peirong, the governor of Yanzhou, granted his wife Wuji immortal. This temple was built here to worship Wuji immortal.

The temple is composed of Mountain Gate, main hall, East and west auxiliary hall and Zen house. The Mountain Gate couplet said, "five hundred are hidden under Tiantai rock, and three thousand are hidden above Xumi rock." In the courtyard, there are three main halls built with stones, and the door forehead is "too empty and delicate". The couplet says: "jade tower, Qionghua mountain, langyuan, green water overlooking Kunlun." The front window of Dongjian is called "taiyuexianzong", and the couplet says: "it contains Yin and Yang, and is the beginning of Liangyi; it creates heaven and earth, and is the origin of Wanfa." West window forehead "heaven and earth body", the couplet said: "rain, Ciyun chuyin; hongkaijue Road, Baoyue Zenghui." In front of the hall, there are three East and West halls, three West halls, three Westinghouse halls and three South halls. It was renovated in 1986 and rebuilt in 1992.

There are three steles outside the temple, which record the process of building Wuji temple and Changshou bridge.

Fan cliff

And then up again see a strange peak, like a giant fan, so called fan cliff. Yang Bo of Ming Dynasty wrote "cactus" here. The peak is steep and peculiar, and the red wall is sharp and difficult to climb. At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, the monk of Tonghui law firm once built a thatched cottage here to practice. In the Ming Dynasty, Wang Wuyu built a stone house at the top of the cliff to study and cultivate himself. Later, he built a thatched house at the bottom of the cliff and called it "another business in the West Mountain". According to the textual research of Wu Chengen, the author of journey to the West
