As soon as I went there, I was attracted by the amazing scenery and delicious food and fragrant tea at Marenqi Peak, and I never wanted to return. What impressed me most were the six highlights after its development.
Explore the "Six Wonders of Ma Ren". Ma Renshan is known for its "six wonders". That is, strange peaks, strange rocks, strange walls, strange houses, strange caves, and strange forests. Everywhere you go, you'll find stunning views. First, the entire scenic spot is composed of two peaks: Sun Mountain and Moon Mountain. The two mountains are opposite and connected, one yin and one yang, complementing each other. Second, there is a peak within the peak, Lu Xun Peak, where the mountain and the people are one, forming a rare natural landscape of "the mountain is one person and the people are one mountain". Camel Peak, Beauty Peak, and Double Bear Peak, according to the tour guide’s introduction, each has its own explanation, image, and idol, and the peaks and peaks are similar in spirit, making them endlessly interesting.
Enter "Happy Forest" for the second time. There is a world-famous natural nanmu forest in Maren Mountain, covering an area of about 50 acres. Phoebe, which is prolific in the southwest, thrives on this land, adding a mysterious color to Marenqi Peak. The forest is extremely quiet, with birds chirping, insects chirping, and mountain springs gurgling. The highest temperature throughout the year does not exceed 28 C. In midsummer, when a person enters, his body will feel cool. It is said to be a "natural air conditioner." There are stone tables, stone benches, swings, hammocks, etc. in the forest. One or two people, three or five people can take a rest in the forest and enjoy endless happiness.
The "Ma Ren Buddha" of the three dynasties. Maren Temple in the scenic area was built in the Tang Dynasty. Through the ages, the incense burns endlessly and the green lanterns are always bright. The "Maren Temple" plaque in front of the temple was inscribed by Mr. Zhao Puchu, the former president of the Buddhist Association, a few days before his death, which was his last inscription during his lifetime.
Watch the "High Altitude Performance" four times. The scenic area has a thrilling high-altitude flying performance, which is a Chinese stunt. Between the 300-meter-spanning peaks of Sun Mountain and Moon Mountain, performers performed difficult movements such as riding motorcycles, riding bicycles, and flipping handstands on a steel cable 60 meters above the ground. There was even a three-year-old child walking the tightrope with his bare hands. The performance amazed countless tourists.
Try five "Maren local dishes". The Ma Ren Local Restaurant, which can accommodate 400 people at a time, uses local Tujia cuisine as its flavor. Ma Ren Local Chicken Pot and Pork Knuckle Corn on the Cob are the signature dishes of the local restaurant. They are rich in flavor and juice, nourishing and relieving fatigue. There are also local eggs, bracken, Bamboo shoots and other specialties can be prepared in several ways. Restaurants offer bracken feasts, bamboo shoot feasts, etc.
