When the weather is fine, the green land is accompanied by green mountains and the mountains are stacked. The scenery of northern China makes you intoxicated and unforgettable.

The poet Wang Xinjian's "traveling to Yunmen mountain" said: "visiting Yunmen mountain leisurely, stepping on turtle scales leisurely. Every step is green, and every wave is white clouds. Don't disturb Chen Tuan's dream. I hear fan Gong's chant. The moon shines on Qingzhou, and the fairyland sheds traces of vulgarity. "

This poem depicts Qingzhou as a heaven and earth.

Yunmen mountain is one of the first provincial scenic spots announced by Shandong provincial government in 1985. Plain pull Wat, pine shade cover foot, although the mountain is not high and a thousand Ren potential, since ancient times for the famous mountain in central Shandong. The main peak, dayuntang, has a cave like a gate, which is as wide as a Zhang. It connects the north and the south, and looks like a mirror in the distance. In summer and autumn, clouds and fog surround the cave and pass through it, like rolling waves. The temple on the top of the mountain is looming and illusory, just like a fairyland. It is so spectacular that it is called "Cloud Gate", or "Cloud Gate fairyland". In ancient times, "eight sceneries of Qingzhou" was called "Cloud Gate arch wall". When you climb to the top of the mountain, you can enjoy the magnificent landscape of "Tuoling Qianxun", "Qifeng sunset" and "three mountains linked with green, barrier City picturesque". In the South and west of Yunmen cave, the main peak, there is a natural stone cave. Its mouth is like a well and its depth is unfathomable. When the air pressure is low in summer and autumn, clouds and fog often appear from the cave, so it is called "cloud cave". The article "Li daoren walks alone in Yunmen" in Xingshi Hengyan written by Feng Menglong of Ming Dynasty tells the story that happened in this "cloud cave".

Yunmen mountain is symmetrical on both sides, just like a black Shamao. In the middle is the main peak dayuntang, and the Shamao wings on both sides refer to the East and West peaks. The East peak is called Wanghai peak, which extends eastward. There is donglangfengting on it, commonly known as Wanghai Pavilion. It is a great scenic spot on Yunmen mountain. It has a unique taste to watch the sunrise sea of clouds in the East, the humps on the Camel Mountain in the west, the sunset in the south, and the ancient city of Qingzhou in the north. The West Peak is named sheshentai, also known as xidading. It has a platform on it, steep around it, and the cliff below is called "Yanwangbizi", because it is said to be Feng Meng In "Li daoren walks alone in Cloud Gate" in "San Yan Er Pai" by long, Li Qing's last place of sacrificing himself to become an immortal is called "sacrificing platform", and later it is homophonic as "Sheshen platform". In addition, in the East, there is a small matching peak under Wanghai peak, which is called Ma'anshan in the shape of saddle; in the west, there is a small matching peak under sheshentai, which is called Xiaoshan, and the whole mountain is in a perfect symmetrical shape.

The restored "wangshou Pavilion" and the East-West "Langfeng Pavilion" add new fun to visitors. There are not only Buddhist caves in Yunmen mountain, but also rare "Taoist caves". The cave is carved with a stone statue of old man Chen Tuan, the leader of Taoism in the Song Dynasty, resting on a book. According to legend, it is also a symbol of longevity. The auspicious thing of auspiciousness comes from the word "longevity" on the mountain. So the common people have a saying: "touch Chen Tuan's head, never worry, touch Chen Tuan's head, never get sick.". Therefore, many tourists, for the sake of luck, have already touched the head and neck of Chen Tuan.

Yunmen xianshou is located at the top of Yunmen mountain. There is a huge cliff carved with the word "Shou" which is rare in the sea. It is called "Yunmen xianshou". During the Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty, Zhu daigui, the king of Heng, was congratulated on his birthday. Ji Yang zhouquan, the head of the house of the king of Heng, engraved the rare word "Shou" on the cliff in the shade of the mountain to please the king of Heng. The big "Shou" character, with rigorous structure and elegant style, faces north and south, with a height of 7.5 meters and a width of 3.7 meters. The "Cun" character under the "Shou" character is as high as 2.23 meters. Therefore, the local people have the saying that "people have no inch high" and "life is longer than Nanshan". Many Chinese and foreign tourists take it as their first choice to visit Qingzhou to express their best wishes to themselves and their families.

Among the cliffs of Yunmen mountain, there are inscriptions and steles of literati of all ages. According to the new book of the Tang Dynasty, in July of the first year of Tianshou (690 A.D.), monk faming compiled a Dayun Sutra for Wu Zetian. He called Wu Zetian Maitreya Buddha of the Western Heaven, who should replace the Tang Dynasty as the leader of the world. Of course, Wu Zetian was very appreciative.

Yunmen mountain is located 2.5 kilometers south of Qingzhou City, Shandong Province, with an altitude of 421 meters. There are natural gate openings on the top of the mountain. In summer and autumn, clouds often come out through the gate, so it is called "Yunmen". Yunmen mountain is close to Tuoshan mountain, and the fan Gong Pavilion at the foot of the mountain forms a scenic temple fair area in Qingzhou. When you visit here, you can find a set of proverbs to guide you: "one birthday, two Buddhas, three honest officials and four books." There are two contents in Yunmen mountain: first, there is a big "Shou" character on Yunmen mountain, which is 7.5 meters high and 3.7 meters wide. Only the "Cun" character at the bottom of the "Shou" character is 2.3 meters high. People climb on it, pedal on the "Cun" hook, and don't wear the horizontal one on the top of the head.

As time goes on, it is the birthday star who has been touched.

Yunmen mountain has long been valued by celebrities of all ages. Among the cliffs, there are inscriptions and steles of scholars of all ages. Wu Zetian, who was full of power, certainly appreciated it very much. She immediately ordered the promulgation of Dayun Jing and ordered the construction of Dayun temple in Chang'an, Luoyang and other prefectures. The inscription of "Yunmen mountain Dayun Temple" on the cliff in front of Yunmen mountain can still be remembered. There is also "Longxing Temple, in the northwest corner of the city" in Yidu county. In the fourth year of Wuping in the Northern Qi Dynasty, Nanyang temple was granted. In the first year of kaihuang in the Sui Dynasty, it was renamed Changle or daozang. In the second year, it was renamed Dayun. In the 18th year of Kaiyuan in Xuanzong, it was named Longxing It can be seen that the name of Dayun Temple originated from the time of Empress Wu Zetian, and the Dayun temple in Qingzhou at that time was the original Nanyang temple. During the reign of Jingtai in Ming Dynasty, Dayun temple was moved to the south of Yunmen mountain. In the valley in front of Yunmen mountain, the ruins of Dayun temple still exist.

The purpose of worshiping Buddha on Yunmen mountain is to pray for children. In addition to other forms of "tying dolls", there is also a kind of "hugging the lion". When the lion dances at the temple fair, the big lion gives birth to a little lion played by a child. The person who asks for the son hugs the little lion home, lets his daughter-in-law hug him for a moment, and then gives him a mouthful of milk. If it happens that the baby is born, the child's nickname is "Shibaotou". Another song is "if you want to have a grandson, put a cypress on your head", which attracts the old ladies to visit the mountain, and everyone is green. As for the worship of honest and upright officials and the appreciation of calligraphy, one is fan GONGTING, the former governor of Qingzhou, Fan Zhongyan, and the other is Linglong mountain, where one sees the inscription stone carvings left by Zheng daozhao of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
