Detailed introduction

According to Yongnian County Administrative Map, Foshan is 330 meters above sea level. Whether it is "Fu" mountain or "fo" mountain, with a sense of mystery and vicissitudes in the depth of history, in early spring, I paid homage to "Fu" mountain, which I had long cherished. Along the mountain road meandering up, on one side is the cliff, such as Huashan natural danger. On one side, there are strange rocks and thorns. The grass on the roadside is desolate, the ancient cypress is towering, and the fresh cypress fragrance is refreshing. The walls of temples in Foshan are built with miscellaneous stone barriers. The platform in the courtyard is about one mu in size. The red walls of three temples are decorated with colored glazed tiles. The cornices stand erect and the columns embrace the cloisters. The two sides of the gables are painted with stories of Buddha paintings, and two poems are written. One of them is, "as soon as the sun shines on Foshan, the gods on the mountain like it; they always care about Jiaoyao village, and the wind and rain are favorable to celebrate the bumper year." Second, "the two lines of imperial trees are green in the sky, beating their heads and rubbing their shoulders for thousands of days; the South carriages of lingmingguan pass ride north, and the back walls of Foshan keep safe." The first poem is self-evident, while the second one is to the effect that it is said that when Yang LIULANG, a famous general of Northern Song Dynasty, was appointed as a general of motorcycles, he guarded the motorcycles and rode the pass and Linyi the pass. The soldiers fought with blood and gained and lost time. According to the legend, Mr. Feng Shui told him that the temple in Foshan could only build the front wall and the left and right Gables, but could not build the back wall completely. Otherwise, the motorcycles in the south of the city of King Zhao would not be able to guard or hurt people. As expected, Yang LIULANG took down a corner of the back wall of Foshan temple. Later, the story spread from generation to generation, and there is still a gap after the temple in Foshan. People say that there are three wonders in Foshan: first, "three Gables are high and even, the front wall is higher than the back wall, and the back wall is lower; the back wall can be crossed by raising its legs, and the gap is left to protect the vehicles.". 2、 In the front and back of the temple, there are seven huge cypress trees with roots like dragon claws, crowns like giant umbrellas, vigorous trunks and towering branches, which can be seen from more than ten miles away. The seven trees are scattered like the Big Dipper, which looks like the seven immortals coming into the world, and also looks like the ancient Zhao Qixian drinking tea and playing chess. There is a poem: "seven cypresses behind the temple in front of the corridor are planted outside the Seven Sages of Zhao state; seven immortals come down from the sky, and the Big Dipper falls out of the sky.". 3、 Standing on the top of Foshan peak is the best place to view the beautiful scenery of ancient Zhao. At the foot of jiugou eighteen kiln village, such as stars, mountains like snail, road like belt, beautiful mountains and rivers, beautiful. "In the north, you can see the red mountain and the South Gate of heaven, and the city of Yiyang can be seen everywhere; in the south, you can see the stone dragon array of Zhaoling, and the ripples and scales of Luofu Lake; in the west, you can see the shadow of Zifeng pagoda, and you can study in Jielu, and you can see Ma Fujun; in the East, you can see the stone inscriptions of Zhushan, and the king of Zhao, Liu, will reward his officials.". It's a pleasure to savor the history in the scenery and appreciate the scenery in the history. It's really "the towering Green Palace of Notre Dame, the ancient cypress slanting smoke nine heavy; the only scene in the famous state, how many visitors are drunk." Whether it is "fo" mountain or "Fu" mountain, Yongnian County place name office defines it as "fo" mountain in "Yongnian County Administrative Map". In fact, Foshan is always a blessing mountain in people's heart.
