1, mountain gate
From the parking lot of the old mother's palace, walk up the stairs and cross the gate of Xianju, and you will see the Guangong Mountain Gate. Mo Bao, vice chairman of Shaanxi Calligraphy Association, hung the plaque of "Old Mother's Palace" above the red lintel of semicircle arch. Shi Xianzhang, a famous calligrapher in Shaanxi, inscribed a couplet, which read: "Heaven and earth are ancestors, and the sun, moon and stars are sources." .
2. San Xiao Temple
A few meters in front of the mountain gate, I came to the three halls. San Xiao Hall is dedicated to three immortal women: Bixiao, Xiao Yun and Xiao Qiong. The plaque "Mother is a teacher" on the lintel of San Xiao Temple tells us the relationship between Empress San Xiao and Lishan's mother. San Xiao is the three goddesses in charge of human happiness, wealth and longevity. Taoism believes that three clouds also represent heaven, earth and people.
3. Old Mother Temple
Just north of San Xiao Hall is the Old Mother Hall. The two halls are more than 20 meters apart, with a giant incense burner in the middle. The pedestal of the old mother temple is very high, and the temple is built in imitation of the Taihe Hall of the Forbidden City. Surrounded by white marble guardrails, cornices, colored arches and golden roofs. Solemn and magnificent.
4. Jiazi Temple
Walking down the stone steps from the north side of the old mother hall, through the flowery courtyard, I came to Jiazitang. Dom Yuan Jun is enshrined in the center of Jiazi Hall.
