Houyu cave rock, commonly known as Houyu cave rock, is located at the northernmost end of the South Bank of Minjiang Estuary, 15 km away from the urban area. The rocks on Houyu island are very strange and have various shapes. What has been found are: wild boar, squirrel, puffer, seal, jade rabbit, tortoise, gecko, lizard, carp, crab, toad, old snake, hen, parrot, goshawk, decadent vulture, tiger, lamb, white horse, yellow cattle, crocodile, rhinoceros, tiger's claw, elephant's ear, Fairy peach, watermelon, jade drum, golden bell, inkstone basin, penholder, schoolbag, signboard, Jigong hat, King Kong boots, champion hat and fairy Shoes, Laojun's couch, fairy maiden's jade pillow, Kongming's shaking fan, Weaver's throwing shuttle, Bajie's supine sleep, monk Sha's meditation, Sanzang Buddha's crown, Buddha's cassock Houyu rock is covered with green shade.

The weather outside is reheating. No matter how big the sun fire is, it will lose its power.

There is a hundred year old Camellia planted in Guangxu period in front of daxiongbao hall, which is the treasure of Pingshan temple. The stem of camellia tree is as thick as a thigh and curved as a bow. It is more than Zhang high. The crown of camellia tree is covered on the screen stone. Every spring, thousands of colorful flowers bloom. From a distance, I think a red cloud is floating in front of the hall. On top of the "drum rock", there are two big trees with different varieties growing in a crack. One is a banyan tree, and the other is a tree that no one can name. The fruits bear directly on the trunk and branches. The bark of the two trees is black and white, and it is suspected that they are lovers with different skin colors from Europe and Africa, who cuddle together and confide in each other. Mr. Shen Jinshou, a famous calligrapher, left the inscription "one rock, two trees, the same root and luxuriant" on the rock before he died. Houyu cave is a unique cave in the Minjiang River. More than 10 caves have been found, such as Zhuangyuan cave, Xianren cave, bat cave, chongtian cave and Yongquan cave.

Puzhu Temple

In the back mountain of Puzhu temple, there are "statues and stories all over the mountain". Hundreds of Arhats are distributed in the mountains. They are about the same size as real people. Their facial expressions are very vivid. They have all kinds of postures. Some are digging their ears, some are sleeping, and some are pushing carts. These Arhats are carved and combined according to Indian Buddhist stories, so to watch Arhats is to watch stories. The more we walk, the more beautiful the scenery is. Buddha statues accompany us. We enjoy the Buddha statues in the shade and read the notes beside them. Puzhu temple, originally known as Baofu temple built in the Wanli period of Ming Dynasty, has the main hall, Tianwang hall, Guanyin hall, Xianjun hall, etc. Meanwhile, standing on the top of the mountain, bathed in the river breeze, overlooking the boats dotted in the Minjiang River, I feel unspeakably comfortable.

Dongtianyan

Houyu cave rock, commonly known as Houyu cave rock, is located at the northernmost end of the South Bank of Minjiang Estuary, 15 kilometers away from the urban area. Houyu cave is a unique cave in the Minjiang River. More than 10 caves have been found, such as Zhuangyuan cave, Xianren cave, bat cave, chongtian cave and Yongquan cave. Some of them are circuitous and full of scenery step by step; some of them are close to the hole and open the hole as far as possible; some of them are narrow and can only pass half of the body; some of them are wide like a hall and can spread banquet; some of them can't see the palm of yin and can't distinguish the East, West, North and South; some of them can see the reversion of heaven and earth by light and shadow. There are still many caves on the mountain that have not yet lifted the veil of mystery. "Bottomless cave" is under the "Heyan". Wet loess accumulates in front of the cave. The entrance is only the size of a table, but the inside of the cave is wide and deep. Someone once got in and climbed for a while. The light of the flashlight was slowly eaten by the shadow, but there was a buzzing noise underneath. I was afraid that something might happen, so I had to go back in vain. "Yanyin cave" is also a mysterious place. Some good people go in and want to see what's going on, but it's chilly. They quit halfway, and then they get seriously ill. It's so mysterious and terrible that no one dares to cross the thunder pool.

The central building of houyuyan is Pingshan temple, which was founded by Zheng Bing, a scholar in Duanming hall, a famous official of the Ministry of official affairs during the reign of emperor Xiaozong of Song Dynasty. The main hall, Tianwang hall, Guanyin Pavilion and yangfo hall are all built on the mountain. Each pavilion has its own way, dotted with green clumps. It is not only for people to rest, but also for enjoying the scenery. Ningyun bridge, Xianren bridge and Xiuan bridge are skillfully arranged in the ravines, which not only benefits the economy, but also increases the landscape. The inscriptions on cliffs such as "Millennium", "Jinping", "the sea is vast and the sky is high", "the mountains are rolling and the sea sounds", "one rock and two trees are luxuriant in the same root" and the couplets of celebrities on pavilions and buildings can be tasted to add elegance.

Anti Japanese tombs

There are anti Japanese tombs at the fork road behind Cuijing Pavilion. In the Ming Dynasty, when Japanese pirates invaded, Houyu villagers could not bear to be trampled by robbers and rose to fight. Hundreds of people were slaughtered by Japanese pirates. Qi Jiguang sent his troops to Minjiang River to drive away the Japanese pirates. The officers and soldiers buried the bodies of the martyrs nearby. Later, a Cultural Palace was built in Houyu village, where the bones of the volunteers were buried from the top of Damei mountain. The reason why the fan-shaped gate of the Pingshan temple on Houyu island was built with a city wall with battlements is to show the solemn and stirring history of hundreds of years. At the same time, the location of the mountain gate is lower than that of Jilong mountain by the river, which also has a special meaning, because the lush mountain top is the ruins of the Qijia military camp. Standing on the city wall, looking back, it is a cemetery. Looking forward, you need to look up to show your respect for the patriotic army.

Zhang village, Houyu

Zhang village on Houyu island has beautiful scenery. The mountains are secluded, the forests are dense, the springs are surrounded, the pines are in waves, the rare animals are around, and the rare birds are contending. The Xiaozhai reservoir, with its sparkling blue waves, fish flying on the shallow bottom, shrimps playing with algae, and the reflection of mountains and rocks, is fantastic and haunting. Take a broad view of the river, gulls and herons flying, Furong towering, steel wheel competing for the current, boat racing oak. On the continent, the rice is ripe and fruity, and the people laugh and the cattle are happy; on the coast of the continent, ten thousand reeds are swaying and swaying, and the reeds are as green as grass. A school of beautiful scenery, shocked the painter, drunk poetry.

Changle Houyu to build modern organic agricultural tourism demonstration base

Houyu township of Changle is a national ecological Township with beautiful river and sea. Its unique natural resources have become an excellent help for green development. In recent years, Houyu township has made great efforts to develop characteristic agriculture and eco-tourism, and built an organic agricultural tourism demonstration base integrating farming experience, rural sightseeing and rural leisure.

A few days ago, an interview group of "green development in Fujian" visited Feisi farm in Zhangcun village, Houyu township. Planting organic vegetables can bring 500000 yuan of village financial income to the local area every year. This is the business experience of organic vegetables in Feisi farm.

On December 8, the delegation came to Feisi farm, which covers an area of 710 mu. Walking into the field, the green vegetables brighten people's eyes. The air around is fresh, the water quality of the flowing river is clear, and there are birds flying over the river from time to time. More than a year ago, it was still a wasteland. By planting organic vegetables, the soil fertility was gradually restored, and the surrounding ecological environment was getting better. It is understood that in the future, sunshine ranch, happy life and other projects will be set up here.

Talking about the original intention of doing agriculture, Chen Li, general manager of Feisi farm, told reporters that it came from a small bowl of lettuce salad. "At that time, I just came back from abroad, and there were often problems with food safety in China. I also liked eating vegetable salad very much, so I wanted to find safe vegetables without pollution." Chen Li said that later, she came to Zhang village, Houyu township. She didn't expect that her plan would coincide with the local township government. She simply rented more than 700 mu of land. Today, the vegetables that are grown here are being picked up on the same day in the form of Internet plus, and they can be sent to the subscribers' home on that day to ensure the freshness of the vegetables.

The person in charge of Houyu Township told the reporter that after Feisi farm was settled, it took about a year to improve the soil, and then began to plant vegetables, which made the local soil well restored.
