Famous scenic spot

Guishan Temple

Guishan temple is one of the four famous temples in Putian. To the north and to the south, there are a series of small peaks on the opposite. On the left is the beacon peak, and on the right is the beacon mountain. The temple was founded in 822, the second year of emperor Mu Zong's reign. The existing buildings were rebuilt in 1904. The four major landscapes of the ancient temple are Qifeng, liexiu, pines and springs.

For thousands of years, the ancient temple has experienced many vicissitudes. On the altar of the Dharma hall, there are three Buddha statues of the three patriarchs. The founder in the middle is a gold-plated full-body human treasure statue with a history of 1145 years. In the center of the altar is a plaque of "Millennium real body".

It is understood that in the eighth year of Xiantong (867) of the Tang Dynasty, when he passed away without his grandmaster, he sat upright as if he were alive, and the master of the temple built a pagoda to worship. From then on, this "ancestor of flesh" was famous at home and abroad until it was destroyed in the 1960s. Fortunately, in 1983, when Guanghua temple in Putian rebuilt the Buddha statue of the whole temple, it also rebuilt a "body" statue for Guishan temple. After the statue was molded, it was consecrated in the Dharma Hall of Guishan temple. It is understood that this is one of the only three real body statues of the Tang Dynasty in China.

There is a water well in the left rear corner of the main hall. It is the "turtle spring well" excavated before the Zen master opened the mountain and built the temple. Later, it was called the "Tang well". The spring water in the well is unusual: whether it is rainstorm or long drought, the well water will not rise or fall. Therefore, for thousands of years, the sayings of "ten years of drought, Tangjing will not dry" and "flood will bring disaster, Tangjing will not rise" have been circulated among the monks in the temple.

Lotus in Xingsha Village

In the summer of Xingsha village, the oilfields are as green as the sea, reflecting the blooming of thousands of lotus. Lotus in the green cluster, charm and aura, elegant and sentimental. With the fresh breeze swaying in the countryside, it brings a light fragrance, refreshing. Passers-by or tourists who come to enjoy the flowers take photos with lotus as the background.

The lotus in Xingsha village can only be seen in summer, but not in other seasons. The lotus here is in full bloom from June to July. Don't miss the chance to enjoy the lotus.

Xichongyuan

There is a local saying that "first there is xichongyuan, then there is Guishan Temple".

In the history of Puxian, there were several historical events related to xichongyuan. During the song and Ming Dynasties, there were two Fierce wars in Puxian area, namely, defending the Song Dynasty, resisting the Yuan Dynasty, opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty. Because of the war, xichongyuan was destroyed twice. During the Jiajing period (1522-1567) of the Ming Dynasty, Japanese pirates attacked Putian, and the monks of Xichong Temple shared a common hatred for the enemy and fought with the people in the battle of defending Yunfeng gate, which made it difficult for Japanese pirates to enter Huating.

In 1934, the KMT concentrated the five Route Army to encircle and launch the "Fujian incident" and the 19th Route Army to unite the Communist Party against Chiang Kai Shek. The monks of Xichong Temple braved the barrage of bullets to rescue the disabled members of the underground Party of the Communist Party of China with the people of Huating. After the end of the war, the 19th Route Army was reorganized and demobilized by the Kuomintang in Xianyou, and the xichongyuan took in the demobilized members of the 19th Route Army.

The newly-built Xichong courtyard is a compound of courtyard and yard. There are no monks in the courtyard, only one old man is looking at the courtyard. The walls of several rooms are pasted with pictures of educated youth with the characteristics of the times. Due to some times, some black-and-white photos are old and yellow. In 1974, the newly-built xichongyuan became a red flag educated youth farm. At that time, more than 50 educated youth lived here, and a stone carving of "aspiring to purple mountain and drawing great plans" left by educated youth was still preserved.

Huating Hongqi reservoir

On July 1, 1974, more than 50 high school graduates from Putian No.1 Middle School bid farewell to Licheng and came to Ziyun mountain of Huating commune to set up the Hongqi reservoir educated youth farm.
