Is Phoenix Mountain in Chengdu fun?
Fenghuang Mountain was called "Dengxian Mountain" in ancient times. According to legend, Zhang Bozi, an ancient fairy, flew over the Red Tiger. Classic "Shu Dian", "Chengdu County Records" and other classics all recorded this beautiful story. The natural landscape of Phoenix Mountain is unique. There are Dongfeng Canal and Fenghuang River at the foot of the mountain. Ponds on the mountain are dotted with ditches. Seen from the ground, Phoenix Mountain is a shallow mountain bordering Chengdu, and the mountains extend from one place to another. If you have a bird's eye view from the air, the mountain looks like a dying phoenix. Domestic authoritative geological experts evaluate its mountain situation as "similar to the Ming Tombs in Beijing"; Scholars call this place "the land where mountains and rivers meet and wonders". Because of this, the dignitaries of past dynasties buried their tombs here in succession, and the dynasty also turned the southern foot of Phoenix Mountain into a forbidden area for the royal cemetery, where the grandson Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was buried (this is the largest tomb of the Ming Dynasty princes discovered in China so far). Fenghuang hometown is located at the foot of the mountain, formerly known as Fenghuang Mountain Cemetery. Belonging to the cemetery designated by Chengdu Civil Reform Bureau, it has obtained the state-owned land use certificate and is protected by national policies. Since 1995, Daguanmo has been planned and constructed. Especially in 2004, the state made a comprehensive plan for the northern part of Chengdu, and the nature of Fenghuang hometown as a permanent cemetery was once again confirmed. The hometown of Phoenix is located in the north of Chengdu. From the perspective of burial, it is consistent with the traditional Ding Li system of "the ancients buried in the north". (Under the Bow of Tan Gong in the Book of Rites: "Buried in the North, Buried in the North, Three Generations of Rites"). Moreover, there is a complete geomantic omen, which makes the deceased safe and makes future generations happy. It is a first-class garden cemetery with reasonable layout, affectionate management and convenient transportation. Once praised: "Baoshan is blessed and full of energy." The road is close to love, and the soul is looking forward to it. "This is really the best back garden in life."
