Upside down Lotus Peak

Upside down Lotus Peak

Also known as the lotus platform, there is a green wall stone peak split like a knife and axe, on which there is a square platform. The stalagmites stand several feet high beside the platform. The five stones stand apart, each standing high, like a lotus. It is said that in order to subdue the sleeping devil, Gaofeng monk of the Yuan Dynasty sat on the peak for three days and nights, tired and falling, the peak turned upside down, holding the monk. This peak is named after it. On the square platform, there was a "Western nunnery" in ancient times, and then a "cloud piercing Pavilion" was built.
