It is one of the eight scenic spots in Luzhou. On the mountain, there are lush trees, lots of strange stones, and the tip of the stone drips all the year round, commonly known as teapot mouth.

There are four peaks on one mountain and Pinghu Lake on three sides. Summer monk no heat, winter grass is not dry. Visitors come here, willing to give up hair and beard. " It is an important scenic spot in Chaohu scenic area.

In ancient times, it was said that "Luyang is a beautiful place for a county". In the Tang Dynasty, some people built temples, but in the rear they encouraged themselves to build Chaoxia academy, which was destroyed. Siding mountain has "siding Zhaoxia" landscape. It's said that Wei Boyang's Alchemy gathered immortal Qi, which is similar to the morning glow. There are grottos, rocks and "alchemy pool" on the mountain.

In Qing Dynasty, Zhu Xian, the founder of Luzhou government school, doubted his theory. When he wrote "eight sceneries of Luyang - four peaks of morning glow", he personally observed the mountain climbing: "one day, he got up in the morning and wandered on the side of Luoji. When it's sunny in the early days, the vegetation is rich, the rising sun rises eastward, and the extraordinary light shines everywhere. When I look down four or five miles, I feel like I'm in the colorful glass Only then knew that the morning glow is the water vapor refraction reflection formation spectacle.

Visitors usually live on the mountain the night before and climb high in the early morning. If the weather is fine after rain, when the rising sun comes to the earth through the misty water mist with flashing sunshine, there will be a halo on the grass at the foot: in the vast lake water, there will be a School of colorful brilliance, with the breeze blowing, light chasing water, water light, Straight to the end of the lake. At the Southern peak of siding mountain, there is a magnificent ancient temple. In the Tang Dynasty, a monk built an nunnery here. Qinghe temple was built in Song Dynasty, and the scholar of Ming Dynasty, Huang Dao, changed its name to Chaoxia temple to worship Guan Yu. In front of the temple, there are two red sandalwood trees with a height of more than 10 Zhang, standing on both sides like two loyal guards. There is a couplet on the black lacquer gate of the metal gate, which says: "the mountains come from the East, and you still look at Shu, while the lakes come from the west, and you want to swallow Wu." At the end of Ming Dynasty, Fang Zimian, a famous scholar, once lived in Chaoxia temple in seclusion. He set up an academy to teach students, and produced a large number of bachelors.

Before 1935, Mr. Wu Zhongliu of Liujiafan built a "siding Park" to the north of the fourth peak on the mountain. Later, Mr. Zhang Zhizhong, a patriotic general, built a small and exquisite villa with western style structure, named "Chaoxia Xiaozhu".

At the back of the temple, there is a special place for tourists to rest, with stone benches and stone chairs on all sides. A square blue stone chessboard, 32 pieces seem to be divided into two teams of people, is fighting in the front line of Chu River Han. There are four stone drum stools around for the spectators to cheer on. It is said that the South and North Stars once played chess in the lower world, and since then left an eternal myth.

What is particularly amazing and inconceivable is that between the long corridor between the temple and the garden, there is an ancient well more than ten meters deep, named "Dilu well". At night, when the moon is in the middle of the sky, you can see the colorful auspicious clouds and the beautiful moonlight from the bottom of the well. This is the scene of the four mountain scenery - the morning glow and the moon. On the northern hillside, there is a breathtaking spectacle: a huge pagoda shaped sharp stone, about seven or eight meters high, is inlaid with a piece of stone at the top, and a stone line of three or four meters long is hung down, as if a fairy is sitting there quietly fishing. In the south of the mountain, there are two parrot stones in the shape of a pair of parrots, called "parrot stone". When the sun shines, standing in the Middle Temple three miles away or the farther mountain, looking northward, you can see that parrot stone is like a pair of love birds nestling together and murmuring. At the foot of the west mountain near the Chaohu Lake, there is a solitary stone, like a frog perching on the bank. Looking up at the sky, it is called "frog stone". The four top mirrors not only attracted a large number of ancient and modern tourists, but also left many popular poems. Luo Yin, a poet in the late Tang Dynasty, once said: "one mountain has four peaks, and three sides overlook Pinghu. Summer monk no heat, winter grass is not dry. Visitors come here, willing to give up hair and beard. " Zhang Yanxiu, a scholar of the Song Dynasty, also praised siding mountain in his poem: "the green mountains are all over Pinghu, and the red paintings are not as good as the green ones in the late Qing Dynasty. I'd like to say that the four sages of Shangshan are good enough to live in one peak each. " Xu fanchun, a poet of the Ming Dynasty, specially described the spring scenery of siding mountain: "Tingwu passes the morning glow, and the mountain stream is slightly inclined. The fine spring is divided into stone teeth, and the fine bird is disordered with silver sand. The land is far away from the dream of the past, and the spring is thick and wild. Late smoke fan short ride, return road willow cover In the Qing Dynasty, Zhou Jiayi left a special poem praising the morning scenery of siding mountain: "a glimpse of the morning glow, facing the lake and siding mountain. Only Xiaozhong felt that he had not yet returned. " The scenery of siding mountain is beautiful and the context is deep. There are many celebrities around the mountain.

One word odd couplet

It is rare to write a couplet in scenic spots, because in any case, one word can not describe the scenery of scenic spots. However, Fang Keyi, a contemporary Lianjia, has a couplet for the title of siding mountain in Chaohu. The first couplet is "Moon" and the second couplet is "Xia". In just two words, it highly summarizes the core scenery of siding mountain in Chaohu Lake, leaving a great space for imagination. Fang Keyi, the famous couplet writer and calligrapher Liu Jianmin, wrote the couplet of "moon, Xia". This is the couplet written by Fang Keyi, the honorary president of China ink painting academy and one of the top ten contemporary Chinese couplets in 1990 for siding mountain in Chaohu, Anhui Province. The first couplet is "Moon" and the second couplet is "Xia". Mr. Fang's explanation is: "the four peaks of the morning glow and the autumn moon of Chaohu Lake have been listed as the Eight Sights of Luyang since ancient times. The best place to watch the sunset and the moon is the four peaks of the mountain. I'd like to use the sunset to see the moon." It is the earliest, the only and the shortest couplet in the world. In 1995, he won the Guinness World Top certificate and set a Guinness world record.
