Recently, a popular mountain, only 168 meters high, climbed to the top of the mountain and carved four big characters with a stone, which is Su Shi's' favorite '. So, what kind of fire does it have? What is the origin of this mountain? Where is it located?
This mountain is called feilaifeng, located in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. Today's Feilai peak is a large scenic spot, which has several scenic spots. The famous Lingyin Temple is also located in the Feilai peak scenic spot. I believe that friends who have visited Hangzhou are familiar with it.
Feilai peak is famous, but if it is only a peak, it is neither precipitous nor beautiful. The mountain is only more than 100 meters, and there is no scenery. It's said that climbing to the top of Feilai peak, there is only a pavilion and a stone engraved with the words "Feilai peak". Sweaty climb up, can only take a photo with a stone punch, that feeling can be said to be quite 'sour'.
In fact, visiting feilaifeng is not for 'climbing', but for 'appreciating'. The cultural background of Feilai peak is very deep. It's also called the spirit Eagle Peak. When Huili, an Indian monk, came here and saw this rock, he thought it was very similar to the spirit Eagle mountain in India. I'm sure it can also be a good place for Buddhism. Therefore, Huili monk built Lingyin Temple before flying to the peak, creating a landscape of mutual reflection between the mountain and the temple. Feilaifeng also became the head of the five Zen mountains.
Although the Feilai peak is not high, many fantastic and changeable caves and gullies have been formed due to the geographical structure of limestone. According to the trend of rock, the ancients carved more than 470 statues of Buddha in the cave.
The age span of these Grottoes is from Five Dynasties to ten countries to Ming Dynasty. Now there are 335 intact grottoes. Feilaifeng has also become a treasure in the art of South China grottoes. It is a national key cultural relics protection unit, which can be said to be precious.
Because of its profound cultural heritage, feilaifeng has been a scenic spot since ancient times, attracting many literati to visit. Su Shi, for example, once wrote a poem about "flying to the peak in love with Lingyin".
In addition to Buddhist statues, there are also scenic spots such as the Leigong tower, Cuiwei Pavilion, yixiantian, Lengquan, etc. each of them can tell many human stories, which are worth savoring.
In the feilaifeng scenic spot, Lingyin Temple is the most famous and tourist attraction. However, Lingyin Temple needs to purchase another 30 yuan fire coupon to enter. Yongfu temple and taoguang Temple don't need to buy additional tickets. Besides, there are few tourists and the environment is also quiet. You can go and have a look. If time is limited, Xiaoyu is not recommended to climb to the top of Feilai peak, because there is no scenery at the top of the mountain, just enjoy it at the bottom of the mountain.
