Jidong town scenic spot
From Zhibiankeng Village along the stream, the first thing you see is the lifelike "Lion Rock". It sits on the side of the road and looks at it from the side of its neck. It is peaceful and powerful, just like a guardian guarding Xuedouling day and night. Not far from Lion Mountain, there is a round upright boulder, which looks like a huge peach. The upper part has been split in two, and the lower part is still connected. On the section between the two halves, you can see the scar of the axe chop. Locals call it "Sword Door Stone", also known as staurolite. When you leave the village and walk to the end of the village, you will see Guo Guanshi lying on the side of the road. If it is to attract tourists, there is a bamboo pavilion next to the stone, which is very antique for pedestrians to rest.
After crossing the stream bridge, you can see a waterfall hanging on the cliff, which looks like a silver snake and sounds like silk and bamboo. When it rains heavily, it looks like a million horses are hanging in the air, and the rapids rush down, sounding like drums. Its characteristic is that the waterfall has two colors, white as silver at ordinary times and bright as gold in the morning and evening.
Climbing the mountain step by step, the mountains on both sides stand upright, and the blue sky is pierced by the peaks on both sides, revealing various shapes.
Going up again, you can see the rugged rocks in the canyon, which gives you a unique view. Halfway up the mountain, a rock in the stream rises from the ground and is covered with vines. It looks like a weight and is called "Weight Stone". It has always been said that the stem is Qiantang River, which is the largest in the world. Next to the weighing stone, Yuhang people set up a forbidden monument here that year, and the word "Forbidden in" was engraved horizontally on the monument [the straight book "This mountain has a middle stream", and the rest of the words have been blurred]. The content is "This mountain is related to Feng Shui in Hang Cheng, so it is not necessary to pull weeds and cut firewood, and offenders will be investigated."
On the left side of the mountainside, there is a 60-meter-high "Tiger Rock", which looks like a roaring tiger, with inverted ears and clenched teeth. These strange stones are so lifelike that you can blurt out their names at a glance.
On the hill opposite Tiger Rock, there is a standing flat stone as big as a round table. It is said that the immortal plays chess here, which is called "chessboard stone".
Under the chessboard rock, there are two "father and son stones". The father stone is shaped like a finger to light up the child's speech, and the son stone is sideways, with his head facing the sky. In ancient myths and legends, there is an urchin who often urinates everywhere. Once, the father and son went to Xuedouling to collect firewood, and the child peed in front of Grandpa Sun. The father and son said, "If you do this, Grandfather Sun will be angry." The child asked his father, have you seen the genitals of ants? The father said no, and the urchin said happily, "How can Grandpa Lao Sun treat me like an ant?" This is what the sun heard at that time, and the sun was only reflected by the mountain stream to the headquarters of the sun. Hearing this, Sun Fu turned the child and useless father into stones, hence the name "father-son stone".
Climbing to the top of the ridge, such as climbing a flight ladder, standing on the dam bridge, I looked up. In front of me are bare cliffs on both sides, like two stone gates, which are blocked by a lady and invincible. There is a "rooster rock" on the left side of the stone peak, which is as cool as a rooster and crows with its neck stretched out. It seems like a guardian on the beacon tower, playing the song of triumph. Behind the male bedrock is Ancun Reservoir, with rippling blue waves.
According to geologists, this used to be a crater. When the volcano erupted, the magma formed that ditch, and now it is a stream. The stream is sandwiched between two mountains, and there is little sunshine all year round. The stream is particularly cold. In hot summer, this is a good place to escape the heat.
The stream flowing down the valley floor from the almost vertical cliff of Ancun Reservoir on the ridge has become a rare waterfall in Shaoxing. People are standing by, and the sound of crashing is endless. The broken water splashed at will, and the waterfall was decorated with crystal ornaments. Water mist floats into the mountains like smoke and fog, and people who watch the scenery are gradually wrapped in mist and become fairies in the clouds. There are no fewer than five such natural waterfalls and canyons.
Those who look at the scenery first firmly attract the water, and the stream accumulates endless brute force and rushes forward. The rocks in the stream are like the fangs of a lying animal. If you can't cross the water, stop it, and the water roars and collides head-on. Suddenly, a boulder stopped the stream, and the wide stream surface merged into a dark hole. There was a drop of several meters deep under the cave, and the rapids rushed in and roared past. As soon as I came out of the hole, flying flowers rushed down like gravel, making dragons and tigers roar. This scene was dubbed "Dragon Cave" and "Dragon Spray". The stream was blocked by boulders and rocks several times and became tortuous, but it also became colorful.
The plants and trees by the stream are as tenacious as water, throwing branches into the rushing water, playing in the water like urchins, and letting the rapids wash away mercilessly. In the narrow valley, the mountains and plains are lush, wild flowers sway with the wind, vines are covered with boulders and climb tall trees. The wild fruit named "Ge Gonghong" is covered with small lanterns under the thorns, which are sweet in acid and fragrant in sweetness. On the hillside near the stream, stands a huge umbrella-shaped torreya grandis. The bright green torreya grandis fruits are covered with branches, and squirrels jump around the tree, triumphant. When I saw the hare foraging, I was frightened and ran away.
Look at Xuedouling, surrounded by green hills, with sparse trees, faint green hills, rippling clear water, rugged rocks and unique features. The morning glow is all over the sky, the moon is shining, and the waterfalls in the mountains are splashing. You can enjoy flowers and waterfalls in spring, explore secluded places in summer, climb mountains and taste fruits in autumn, and hunt in the snow in winter, which is really the best scenery in Vietnam.
