According to legend, in the 20th year of Yuan Dynasty (1283), there was a plague in Zhouzhi area, and there was no cure, and countless people died. At that time, Zhang Zhijian, the supervisor of Louguantai, had a dream at night, in which the old gentleman told him, "There is a slate in front of the mountain and a spring under it. There is an elixir in spring, which can cure the epidemic. " Zhang Jianyuan felt very strange when he woke up, so he ordered the little Taoist priest to look in front of the mountain gate, and sure enough, he dug a spring under the western slate. Zhang Jian's hospital is busy getting water for the Taoist priest who has an epidemic. Two hours later, the epidemic was magically cured. After the news came out, people from far and near came to get water for treatment, and the epidemic subsided. Three years later, Zhao Mengfu, a bachelor of Hanlin, visited here. He was very surprised when he heard that, so he asked for the word "to be good" in a big notebook with paper and pen, taking the meaning of "to be good as water" in Tao Te Ching. Nowadays, every temple fair, pilgrims are still competing to drink this water to get rid of illness and prolong life. It is said that there is a bagua-shaped blast furnace on the peak of Tainan, which is said to be Laozi's blast furnace.

In the southeast of Taiwan Province, there is a "Tian Yang Pool", which is said to be Lao Tzu's pool for quenching while the iron is hot. Near the pool, there is a "habitat pavilion" where Laozi practices truth.

There is a female spring in the west of Taiwan, which is the place where I taught my disciple JOE. Legend has it that Laozi turned a bone into a handsome JOE in Journey to the West. When I got to Hangu Pass, Lao Tzu turned Qixiang into a beautiful woman to test him. JOE can't resist the temptation and is preparing to take action. A finger of Lao Tzu's hand suddenly revealed the prototype of the bones. Because of Yin's intercession, Lao Tzu turned the white bone into a clear spring by touching the ground with a crutch. This spring water is clear and still drinkable.

To the northeast of Taiwan Province is Lao Zi's tomb, which is oval, four meters square and covers an area of 20 square meters. There is a stone tablet of Lao Zi's Tomb written by Bi Yuanshu in Qing Dynasty. It is said that the site passing through Taipei Erli is the site of Zongsheng Palace.

When you visit the site, the first thing you see is nine ancient cypresses that are still lush after thousands of years. The locals are honored as "Nine Old Houses". One of the trees was passed down as a cow used by Laozi, named "Niubai". There is a statue of Shi Niu in Yuan Dynasty under the tree. There are three trees in the southwest corner. The scabs on the trees look like three lifelike goshawks flying high, and they are called "Three Hawks and Cuibai". There are many precious steles in Louguantai, such as Tang Dynasty stele, Li Shu Ling Song, Su Ling's running script Tang Laojun sees the stele, Yuan Banqian's running script Cao Bei, Mi Songfei's running script The First Mountain, Su Shi's running script The Monument to the Louguantai, etc. Yuan Zhao Mengfu Lishu Shangshanchi tablet, etc.

The most famous is the tablet of Tao Te Ching written by Gao Wenju. Its font is between Shi Guwen and Dazhuan, and its calligraphy is ancient and gorgeous. It looks like a figure at close range and a flower at a distance. Because the plum blossom first bloomed, it was praised by later generations as the "Plum Blossom Seal Word Monument". There are seven obscure words on each side of the two stone tablets, which are not found in general dictionaries. It is said to be the 14-character regimen of the old gentleman, which means "Jade furnace burns medicine to prolong life, and the right path repairs Yiqi Dan".

The ancients said: "Guanzhong has 120 miles of rivers and mountains, and the south is the best;" In the end, thousands of miles south, the building view is the best. " Louguantai in Zhong Nanshan attracts believers of all ages with its long Taoist history, touching myths and legends and numerous cultural relics. Mount Zhongnan is beautiful, just like a magnificent painting screen, standing in the southwest of Xi. Cuihua Mountain, 30 kilometers away from Xi, is famous for its Qifeng, grottoes and ancient Qingchi Temple. In the second year of Yuanfeng in the Western Han Dynasty (before 109), Taiyi Temple was built in the mountain pass (Dayukou), so it was also called Taiyi Mountain. The main attractions are Taiyi Pool, Wind Tunnel, Ice Cave and Cuihua Temple.

Taiyi Lake is a mountain lake, which is said to have been caused by the earthquake in Tianbao period of Tang Dynasty. Surrounded by towering peaks, rippling waters and beautiful scenery, there are Shui Ying Mountains. The wind tunnel to the west of Taiyi Pool is15m high and 40m deep, and consists of two granite blocks. The wind in the cave is chilly, so it is called a wind tunnel. In the ice cave north of the wind tunnel, although there is hard ice in midsummer, it is chilly. There is a Zhengcha reservoir in the mountain, and the waterfall will fall when it pours. Looking from the foot of the mountain, Su Lian hangs in the air, magnificent and unique. Every year from the first day to the third day of the sixth lunar month, there will be a temple fair in front of Cuihua Temple.

The South Wutai Mountain is verdant and steep, rich in medicinal materials, and the ancients called it the most beautiful in the South. There are five peaks on the top of the mountain: Guanyin, Manjusri, Qingliang, Sacrifice, and Ling Ying, commonly known as Nanwutai, among which Guanyin Terrace is the most famous. Baoquan is located halfway up the mountain. It is shaped like beautiful jade and tastes like sweet sugar cane. This is a good place for drinking tea and having a rest. The only pavilion is also located on the mountainside, named after Gu Song in the pavilion. The pavilion is surrounded by birds and flowers and picturesque scenery, which is a good place to visit. Guanyintai, also known as Datai, is located above Dushangge, and there is the site of Sui Guoguang Temple. This platform has a wide field of vision and looks at Qinchuan in the north for 800 miles, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. Guifeng Mountain, commonly known as Jianshan Mountain, includes Zige, Dading, Lingyun and Luohan Peak. It is tall and straight, shaped like Guiyu, so it is called Guifeng Mountain.

The main attraction nearby is Gaoguan Waterfall. The waterfall is located in Gaoguanyu with a drop of more than 20 meters. The rapids splashed and went straight down the deep pool with a thunderous sound. There is a poem in "Tang Censhen": "The waterfall hangs down the shore and is long and blank. It doesn't rain all the time, and the village thunders all day. " This is a vivid portrayal of Gaoguan Waterfall. The boulder in the upper reaches of the waterfall is abrupt, and there is a pool around it, which is called the carriage pool. The water in the pool is crystal clear, with fine stones like scales. It has a long history and is a good place to live in seclusion and explore miracles. The water flow downstream of the waterfall is gentle, forming a lake. The water surface is like a mirror, surrounded by lakes and green hills, and it is a good place to play and camp. Nanmengxi, near xi 'nan 1 100 km and National Highway 2 1047 km, is a natural scenic spot, which is undeveloped and can be freely visited.

Nanmeng Creek in Zhong Nanshan has the best scenery and its ecology has not been destroyed. Wild animal resources are very rich. Qingshui Waterfalls can be seen everywhere. Thousands of old trees, exotic flowers and strange walls, streams and ponds can be seen everywhere.

The climate is humid and mild, with lush trees, lush grass, towering ancient trees and birds singing all year round; The vines in the forest cover the sun, the mountain wind passes through, and Lin Tao bursts and continues. There are many canyons, overlapping mountains, streams and ponds, and still shadows sink to the wall.
