The age of Architecture

The four steps of Lu Zu's altar and its courtyard are in accordance with the situation of the mountain. They are well arranged and raised by courtyard, implying the good wish of Taoism to rise step by step and finally become an immortal. Built in the reign of emperor Suizhen of the Ming Dynasty, luzu altar covers an area of more than 4000 square meters.

Basic introduction

The statue of LV Dongbin is worshipped in the longevity Hall of Lu zutan, with two eyebrows at the temples. It is solemn and solemn, which fully shows the personality connotation of sword immortal, wine immortal, poetry immortal and medical immortal. The hall is filled with cigarettes and the chime is melodious.

Interestingly, once, when repairing the main hall, we found that there was a "dragon lying on the wall" on the west wall of the bedroom. In August 1998, after a heavy rain, the wall broke, and an "ancient tree dragon root" appeared in front of people. The root is natural, the mouth of the bowl is thick and thin, with head, claws and scales, just like a dragon. Now it is well protected for people to watch.

Ancient cypress in hospital

In the third courtyard of luzu altar, there are eight ancient cypresses, which are arranged according to the directions of the eight trigrams. If you follow the prescribed route to complete the eight trigrams array, it's just the right step. If you often walk in the array, you can strengthen your body and prolong your life. There is a 3-meter Pagoda in the southeast of the courtyard, which is the oldest building in the altar. It is said that it was built in the Guangxu period to commemorate the then Taoist priest Baiqu.
