Historical reasons of Sampu Mountain Scenic Area
The mountains are rugged, the rocks are rugged and the forests are lush. The mountains are full of caves with huge stones and all kinds of stone forests. Among them, Kanroji, an ancient temple with 7,000 square meters of boulders as its natural roof, is the most famous. There are Zhongli Cave and Guli Cave. At the southern foot of the mountain, there are marine mushroom-shaped stone forests representing ancient marine landforms, the tombs of the famous hipster Lin Daqin and his mother-in-law, and the newly-built Tropic of Cancer sign tower.
Kanluoji, located in Lion Mountain, is the only Shiyao Temple in our city. The temple is set in a natural stone room, and a huge volley of 700 square meters flies out, flat as a razor, rock-solid and spectacular. Geng Wu (1870) wrote an inscription in Liao Shilin's Daquan, praising: "In the smoke of Kanluoji, natural stone chambers are wonderful." .
The gate of the temple is composed of three big stones, the remains of Yuzhu Academy on the gate are still there, and the music stone of Ganlu Cave is still there. The tall Maitreya Buddha in the temple is bare-chested, bare-armed, smiling and beautifully shaped. The local folklore "Meilin Lake sinks and Kanluoji emerges from the rice" refers to this stone Buddha. It is said that in the past, the navel of this stone Buddha could produce rice for monks and tourists to satisfy their hunger, but the rice will not come back because the monks chiseled its navel. There are springs on the right side of the temple, which are inexhaustible in autumn and winter. It was called "Ganlu Yongquan" in ancient times.
As early as the Ming Dynasty, Pu Sang was a famous tourist attraction. In the poem "Singing Away from the Mountain in the Season Edition" in the Ming Dynasty, it was said: "It should be handed down from generation to generation as a masterpiece on earth to wander away from the mountain and find smoke everywhere every day."
Dongshan Lake is located at the eastern foot of Pu Sang, surrounded by mountains on three sides and a valley basin in the middle. There are large and small lakes in the lower part of the basin, and rich hot springs and mineral resources are scattered around the lake. Hot springs are radon springs with high temperature, low salt and low radioactivity. The spring water is clear and transparent, colorless and tasteless, suitable for tourism and recuperation. The mineral spring is calcium carbonate spring with a water temperature of 27℃, which is suitable for drinking and has curative effect on cardiovascular and digestive diseases.
Because there are beautiful scenery, many flowers and fruits, fresh air and hot springs for treating diseases. 1956, a sanatorium has been established here, which has always been a good place for cadres and workers everywhere to swim and recuperate.
