Main landscape

Legend of ancient gate

In the beautiful ancient gate, there are many moving legends. These mysterious stories add infinite humanistic charm to the unique natural scenery of the ancient gate.

Shenniufeng

When you enter the Magnolia ancient gate scenic spot full of natural aura, you will see a thousand year old fragrant maple tree, shenniufeng, with its branches and leaves whirling and full of business. Its height is more than ten feet, and it is hard for four people to embrace. From a distance, it looks like a huge building standing up into the sky; from a close view, it looks like an old man.

It is said that a long time ago, the deep and leafy Maple suddenly withered, its skin cracked and its heart empty. The villagers were terrified and could not be saved. An old cattle in gumen village was willing to fatten its body to save the old tree in order to repay the kindness of the people for not killing it. So it went into the crack and disappeared in a moment. After a short time, the ancient trees came back to life. In memory of the old cattle, the villagers called the tree "shenniufeng".

Shuanglong Valley

Shuanglong Valley is located between qifuling and pengpailing. It is full of legendary features, such as cascades, pools and rocks. At that time, the valley was originally beautiful and green, with long streams and waterfalls. There were two dragon gods, one white and one red, practicing here. For some unknown reason, the two dragons suddenly left the valley, leading to the dryness of the ancient gate valley. There was a long drought and no rain in this area. Every year there was famine, and the people's life was miserable. Mulan learned that, in order to reconcile the wind and rain, determined to ask Shuanglong back. After a lot of hardships, I went all over the mountains and finally found Er long in Tianchi mountain.

On the sword of ancient gate

Hua Mulan had experienced setbacks and failures before she became famous, but she never gave up easily. In the end, she overcame herself with tenacious perseverance and tenacious will and went to success. The ruins on gumen mountain seem to be telling her moving scenes of practicing martial arts and sword in the past.

It is said that Mulan had two previous discussions with her elder martial brother, but both of them were defeated. After hard training, Mulan realized the unity of heart and sword, and created a set of unpredictable and unexpected "Mulan sword technique". For the third time, Mulan won the contest here. In order to commemorate Mulan's victory in the sword contest in gumen mountain, later generations called the mountain she once won in the martial arts contest "Desheng mountain", and engraved the story of the sword contest in gumen mountain on the tablet as a memorial.

Blessing Stone

Muyu stone: the ancient gate is long and covered with green pines. Surrounded by mountains, there is a huge stone like Muyu standing on top of a protruding peak. Approaching it, the sounds of nature reverberate in the mountains and valleys, as if telling a story handed down from generation to generation in the mountains - the wooden fish stone for disaster relief and blessing.

The ancient gate is long and green. Surrounded by mountains, there is an abrupt peak. On the top of the peak, a few strange stones set off a huge garden stone. Its color is green and its shape is like a huge wooden fish. When you listen to it with a wooden hammer, the sound of nature reverberating in the mountains and valleys lingers in your ears. It seems to tell people the moving story of the wooden fish stone praying for the people for thousands of years . It is said that Hua Mulan, guided by the master's dream, is a large wooden fish made by the master. After two eminent monks in Qingshiling opened the altar to chant the Sutra, they knocked for 666 days to pray for the people's blessings. Finally, they made it into a fossil.

In autumn, after 80 minutes' drive, I came to the parking lot of Mulan ancient gate scenic area. As it was time for the meal, we went straight to the gumen special restaurant. After the introduction of the restaurant staff, we ordered Huangpi three delicacies, Huangpi bean shreds and other special dishes, as well as Chongyang special services - Chongyang cake and chrysanthemum wine.

At the foot of the mountain, along the Qifu slope, you walk into the deep and quiet jungle. You pass by some scenic spots, such as the stone, the love Lake stone, and finally you see the legendary Qifu stone. The whole stone is like a wooden fish beating. It's so vivid that you can't help sighing at the magic power of nature. After walking across the Tianhe bridge and down two stairs, the whole Double Dragon Waterfall, with the roar of a dragon, flies down from tens of meters. It's really a bit of the artistic conception of "flying down three thousand feet, it's suspected that the Milky way is falling nine days". The splashing water mist is mixed with the fragrance of flowers, and the whole person is very comfortable. After walking through Shuanglong waterfall, we come to the ruins of Longwang temple in gumen. It is said that this is the place where local people worship God, ask for rain and fortune. Of course, it's rare for us to come here, and we kneel down one after another.

With the nostalgia for Shuanglong waterfall, we are ready to go down the mountain. On the way, we experienced the folding and galloping waterfall and drank the dew like Fuquan water. Finally, with everyone's efforts, we walked out of the double dragon valley. At this time, everyone's attention is very important
