brief introduction

Located on the South Bank of Lingqu, 7km south of Xing'an County, rudongyan is located on the beautiful Panlong mountain. The Yuxi spring in front of the rock meanders into the Lingqu,

It is a famous tourist attraction with beautiful mountains, clear waters and strange caves. Since the Tang and Song Dynasties, Rudong rock has become a gathering place for scholars and celebrities, known as "surpassing Nanzhou" and "the first cave in southern Hunan".

It is composed of upper, middle and lower caves. The upper cave is "Feixia cave", the middle cave is "Zhuyun cave", and the lower cave is "penglei cave". Li Bangyan, the Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty, inscribed the three caves; on the cliff there were many poems, songs and Fu of the literati of the past dynasties, and Ji You inscribed them. You can see the "five sceneries" in Youyan, and you can feel the wonder of Rudong.

Cliffside inscription

Due to the unique scenery of the three caves, it has been called "SHENGJUE Nanzhou" and "the first cave in southern Hunan" since ancient times. Since the Tang Dynasty, it has attracted many famous people to visit Lingnan and left us some valuable cliff inscriptions. Among them, the more famous ones are the inscriptions of Lu Zhen, the governor of Guangzhou in Tang Dynasty, Yuan Huiyuan Yao, the governor of Yuezhou in Tang Dynasty, the poems of Sanru cave by Wei Wei, the governor of Guangxi, the three caves by Li Bangyan, the Prime Minister of Song Dynasty, the cliffs of Shangqing three caves by Zhang Xiaoxiang, the governor of Jingjiang, the inscriptions of eighteen people, such as Fan Chengda and Zhu Yuanjiang, the inscriptions of three caves by Li zengbo, the governor of Guangxi, and Xie Kui, the governor of Jingjiang《 There are 14 poems in Rudong chronicle. There are so many Tang and song inscriptions preserved in a group of caves, which are rare in Guangxi.

The wonder of milk hole

Rudongyan is located on the South Bank of Lingqu, seven kilometers southeast of Xing'an County. The cave is divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower. It looks like a pavilion in the cave. The scenery is amazing. The next hole is called spray thunder hole. The entrance is wide and high. The entrance is a hall more than 20 meters wide, more than 60 meters deep and about 10 meters high. An undercurrent gushes out from the west wall of the cave. It falls into a pool and overflows into a stream called "Yuxi". Yuxi divides the hall into two parts, and the stream is connected by a stone bridge.

The bell milk in the south of the river forms a platform, which is called the Dragon Mother platform. From the platform, you can see layers of "terraced fields" formed by stone milk. The fields are crisscross, and the fields are connected with the Cheng. This is the famous "Longtian". I saw the spring water flowing down the field. The bottom of the group is full of milk beads, crystal clear and mellow, reflecting the rising sun, pearly water shadow, which is a wonder. This is the first scene of Rudong: "Longtian spitting beads". Every summer, there is plenty of rain, and the spring breaks through the wall and falls into the pool. The sound is as loud as thunder, and the second scene of the milk cave is "thunder shooting". The next hole edge mountain up about 20 meters, that is, to the middle hole. The entrance of the middle cave is small, but the inside is also very wide. The cave is very dry. The moisture at the foot of the mountain often condenses into the cave. It looks like smoke floating in the sky. Visitors feel like they are in a fairy tale world. Therefore, the cave is called Zhuyun cave. "Rudong in the cloud" is the third scene of Rudong.

From the middle hole to the upper hole, it goes up more than 60 meters. Go down about 20 meters from the entrance to the bottom of the cave. Entering the front hall, the first thing you can see is two big clocks made of stone milk. They are about four meters in diameter and five meters high. The two clocks are the same size. They are milky white and crystal lovely. This is the fourth scene of Rudong: "Jingyang double bells". From the front hall, turn around a huge natural screen and enter the back hall. At this point, people like to enter a magnificent palace. Here, the bell and milk show is full of strange things, glittering and magnificent. Each piece of milk stone seems to be covered with colored gauze, so this cave is called Feixia. "Rudong Feixia" is the fifth scene.
