1. Pujiu Temple. Pujiu Temple is located in the Golden Triangle of the Yellow River at the intersection of Shanxi, Qin and Henan provinces. It is a well-known tourist and love destination at home and abroad. It is a Buddhist temple located in the Emei Plateau of Yongji City in the southwest border of Shanxi Province. The terrain here is high and open, with a broad view. The towering Zhongtiao Mountain looks like a barrier to the south, and it confronts and echoes the "Wangu Temple", the first Zen forest in Zhongtiao, from the north to the south. Looking west to the surging Yellow River, it is as white as a silver belt. The "Stork Tower", one of China's four famous buildings, and the national treasure "Tang Kaiyuan Iron Bull" are also close at hand.
2. Stork Tower. The Stork Tower was first built in the Northern Zhou Dynasty (557-581 AD). The building went through the Tang and Song Dynasties, and was destroyed by war in the early Yuan Dynasty (1222 AD). Due to the spectacular building, unique structure, majestic momentum and beautiful scenery, many people have left poems when looking forward to the Taihua Mountain in Zhongtiao and down to the majestic Yellow River. The newly built Stork Tower is in the shape of Tang Dynasty, with four eaves and three floors, with a total height of 73.9 meters and a total construction area of 33,206 square meters. It fully embodies the charm of the Tang Dynasty and the artistic conception of "If you want to see a thousand miles away, reach a higher level".
3. Shentan Grand Canyon. Originally called Shuigu, it has a history of more than a thousand years. The mountains are majestic, full of streams and springs, and the natural vegetation is unique. Tens of thousands of acres of lush natural Berlin are rare in the Zhongtiao Mountains. The entire scenic area is densely covered with trees and blooming mountain flowers. The main peak "Jiuzhou Liao" is 1778.3 meters above sea level. It stands abruptly among the mountains. The slope is steep and the top of the mountain is gentle. On cloudy days, the nine peaks float flatly on the sea of clouds. It is both real and illusory. It has been called "Jiuzhou Taiping" since ancient times. ".
4. Wulaofeng Scenic Area. Wulao Peak was originally called Wulao Mountain. It was named after the Wulao Mountain where the ancient Wulao taught the emperors "He Tu" and "Luo Shu". Before the Book of Changes was written, this was the holy place where Heluo culture spread in its early stages. Since the Tang and Song Dynasties, the prosperity of religion has further prospered the Taoist culture of Wulaoshan. The mountains are crowded with nunneries, temples are in full bloom, incense is lingering, immortals ascend, and pilgrims gather. Wulao Peak is mainly composed of five peaks: Yuzhu Peak, Taiyi Peak, Qipan Peak, East Jinping Peak and West Jinping Peak.
5. Yongji Wangu Temple Scenic Area. It was built in the third year of Zhengguang in the Northern Wei Dynasty and has a history of 1,500 years. It is far away from Pujiu Temple, where the story of "The Romance of the West Chamber" is famous at home and abroad. It is a temple that was built just after Buddhism was introduced to the land. According to the Buddhist principles of building temples, the site selection of Wangu Temple is indeed a geomantic treasure. It sits east to west and is built against the mountains. To the west is the rolling Yellow River, with gurgling mountain springs running down from the temple. Surrounded by pines and cypresses, the bamboo forest sets off the splendor of the temple. , Buddha spectrum photo.
