Luoxingdun

Luoxingdun, also known as luoxingshi, also known as Dexing mountain, is located in the center of erlihu in the south of Ziyang dyke in Lushan city (formerly Xingzi County). It is a landmark building and symbolic cultural relic in Lushan City, from which the name of Xingzi County comes. It is a small stone island with a height of several feet and a total area of no more than 1800 square meters. It echoes Dagushan (also known as shoshan) in Hukou county.

development history

At first glance, it looks like floating on the water. It is said that it was transformed by falling stars. Jiang Zhiqi, a Song Dynasty man, described it as "the stone in the lake today, the star in the sky that year". According to Li Daoyuan's notes to the water classic, "the falling star stone, a hundred steps back in the Zhou Dynasty, is five Zhang high, with bamboo and wood on it. It is said that there is a star falling, so it is named" Xingzi County "(now Lushan city) hence.

In the Five Dynasties, luoxingdun was granted the title of Baoshi mountain. In the early Song Dynasty, pavilions and courtyards were built on it, which were maintained in all previous dynasties. In the Ming Dynasty, pavilions and pavilions were built, such as Fuyu tower, Yujing Pavilion, Gangyi Pavilion, Qinghui Pavilion, etc. After the birth of bamboo and wood, the pier is still elegant and beautiful.

It is said that there was an emperor Lao ER in the Five Dynasties who granted it the title of "Baoshi mountain" and donated it to build "Fuxing longan courtyard" on the stone mound.

Main attractions

Standing on it, a close view of the lake, golden scales, egrets flying, blue waves in the sky. Overlooking the beautiful peak of Guanyin bridge on Lushan Mountain, the light smoke conceals the majestic posture, and bamboo and wood grow on it. It seems that the scene of returning to the field of pastoral poet Tao Yuanming in those days when "the boat is far away and light, the wind is floating and the clothes are blowing" can be seen.

Wang Anshi, Huang Tingjian and Zhu Xi all have their own poems about this. The "one wine cup of the Yangtze River" described in Wang Anshi's poems is even more famous through the ages.
