The first mountain in Lingnan?
Luofu Mountain, also known as Dongqiao Mountain, is one of the top ten famous mountains in China and a famous Taoist mountain in China. Taoism calls it the seventh hole and the thirty-second blessed land. Known as "the first mountain in Lingnan".
Luofu Mountain is located more than 45 kilometers northwest of Huizhou, 90 kilometers away from Guangzhou. Guangshan Highway runs through the whole territory, spanning Boluo, Longmen and Zengcheng, and covering more than 250 square kilometers in Fiona Fang. There are 432 peaks in Luofu Mountain, more than 980 waterfalls in famous springs, 72 hidden stones in stone chambers and 18 caves. It is a famous scenic spot and summer resort in China, with majestic mountains, beautiful scenery and suitable climate.
The formation of Luofu Mountain began in Mesozoic Cretaceous. It is a combination of Luoshan and Fushan. About 80 million years ago, the crust in this area broke and the huge granite rock mass was squeezed and uplifted. After tens of millions of years of wind and rain erosion, Luofu Mountain with abrupt peaks has gradually formed. The Records of Counties and Counties in the Later Han Dynasty records: "Boluo has Luoshan, so it was named Luofu, because of the meeting of Fushan." Therefore, there is a folk legend that Fushan crossed the sea to marry Luoshan. There is a poem that says, "Fushan came across the sea from the East, and you don't need a medium to marry Luoshan. The combination is really like a husband and wife, and the children are all small Penglai. "
Strange peaks and rocks are a major feature of Luofu Mountain. There are more than 400 peaks in Luofu Mountain with different shapes, such as jade girl, arhat, lion and camel. It's really "every mountain is a strange stone" and "the peak has a spiritual world" Feiding, the main peak, is also called non-Yunfeng, with an altitude of 1296 meters. It is the highest peak in Luofu Mountain, and it is named after the frequent passing of colorful clouds. Seen from the Guangshan Highway, it looks like a sword leaning on the sky, at least in the clouds. Climbing to the top of the mountain, you can see the vast land of Boluo, Huizhou, Dongguan, Zengcheng, Guangzhou and Longmen.
