Fairy stone

The scenery of fairy stone is different from that of fairy mountain. Here are cliffs and ravines. Several stone pillars standing on the cliffs are fairy stone. It is said that a long time ago, the seven fairies in the sky secretly came to the fairy mountain because they were greedy for the scenery of the world. They had a lifelong relationship with the mortals. Soon they were known by the queen mother. In a rage, they were severely punished and turned into huge stones. They have been standing here for thousands of years, but they can't reach each other. Later generations changed the name of this place to fairy mountain in memory of the two lovers, so that this beautiful love story will be handed down forever.

Bodhisattva

Bodhisatto is located at the edge of xiaogengba grassland. There is a small single peak standing on the grassland depression. Like a kind-hearted Bodhisattva, this is the God "Bodhisattva Tuo" that many visitors come to worship. In particular, every year on June 29 of the lunar calendar, hundreds of mountain people come here to worship and become a major landscape on fairy mountain.

Fairy pool

It is said that a fairy in the heavenly palace heard about the beautiful scenery of fairy mountain, but in private, she was told by the queen mother, so she was punished and asked to do a good deed for the mortal. She found that fairy mountain was seriously short of water, so she sacrificed herself and turned her body into a pool of water. She stayed in fairy mountain forever. Only the crane who came to the mortal world with the fairy could accompany her. In memory of the fairy who did good deeds, people named it fairy pool.
