Then the question is, how can Yunzhuan Mountain win such praise as Liu Bowen?

1. Where is the beauty of Yunzhuan Mountain?
Yunzhuan Mountain, located in Yudong, Banan District, Chongqing, stands on the edge of the Yangtze River and is known as "the surging Yangtze River water, towering Yunzhuan Mountain". This mountain is in the shape of a pagoda, and it is magnificent. It consists of nine castles and thirteen bays. From a distance, it looks like a sleeping Buddha looking at the moon, and from a close look, it looks like a huge Optimus Prime. The terrain is both dangerous and interesting.
During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, Wang Erjian, the magistrate of Baxian County, appraised the "Twelve Scenes of Bayu", including Jinxiang, Huangge Wandu, Tongjing Gorge Ape, Gele and Lingyin, Yunzhuan Style, Hongya Cui Di, Haitang Yanyu, Zishui Xiaodeng, Huaying Xue Ji, Fuling Xia Yun, Longmen Hao Yue and Buddha.
"Clouds seal the breeze" ranks among them.
Now climb Yunzhuan Mountain, and there is an archway engraved with "Yunzhuan Style" at the entrance of the stairs.
There are more than 20 natural landscapes on the mountain, such as Yunzhuan pine forest, Yunshan Lake, Changqingshui and Niutongue. The forest is tall and dense, covering the sky, and the lake is clear and blue. There are Shanzhai Gate, Yunzhuan Temple, Woodcut of Old Courtyard, Qingfeng Building, Luohanjing, Wenchang Palace, Baolian Temple and other historical relics.
It rains on a sunny day, the flowing clouds blend with the foggy sea, and the pines and birds sing happily, which is extremely interesting.
The annual average temperature on the mountain is 16.8℃, which is cool in summer, making it an excellent place to escape the summer.
Yunzhuan Temple in the mountain was built in Chenghua nine years in Ming Dynasty (AD 1473). From the beginning of the school to the Cultural Revolution, incense was flourishing, Buddhism was busy, bells were ringing, and there was an endless stream of good men and women offering incense. Ten years later, the temple was destroyed, leaving only the blue stone pillars with a diameter of about 1 m and a height of 10 m.
In the existing two inscriptions carved in the ten years of Qing Daoguang, the historical facts that "Yun Zhuan Feng Qing" was once listed as "Twelve Scenes of Bayu" are recorded in detail.
The Yunzhuan Temple, which I saw on the mountain today, 1999 was restored and rebuilt. There are Daxiong Hall, Xisanxian Hall and Wei Tuo Hall. The largest modern Siddhartha Gautama in Chongqing is enshrined in the temple.
There are Guanyin Bodhisattva, Wang Yao Bodhisattva and Manjusri Bodhisattva unearthed more than 500 years ago, when the temple was rebuilt in Wei Tuo Hall.
There is a cloud seal shanzhai on the mountain, which was built in the eighth year of Jiaqing in Qing Dynasty (AD 1803). It was one of the five shanzhai in Ba County at that time. Shanzhai has an open terrain with a total area of about 320 mu. There are four doors in the east, south, west and north.
Now there is only one door in the hut, and the two wooden doors at the door can still be seen in previous years.
There are also scenic spots such as Changshou Water, Snake Cliff, and a glimpse of the building.
Second, where is the risk of Yunzhuan Mountain?
Since Liu Bowen praised it as "there is chaos in the world, there is nothing to worry about here", then Yunzhuan Mountain must have its risks.
We can get a glimpse of it from the existing Yunzhuan shanzhai.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the world was in chaos. Zhang's army invaded Chongqing and slaughtered Chongqing. Many people who can't survive hide in the mountains, become fugitives and plunder everywhere.
Residents around Yunzhuan Mountain suffered greatly. In order to avoid the harassment of bandits, they raised funds to build a hut on the top of the mountain to repel bandits.
This cottage is the "Yunxi cottage".
The hut is divided into four doors in the southeast and northwest. Bandits came, and people took valuables up the mountain to escape.
Now, if you visit this mountain, you can know where the danger is.
The hut is surrounded by cliffs, which are unattainable and can only be entered through the Zhaimen.
There is a wall at the gate of the village, and the city is ready to roll wooden thunder stones. When bandits come, they will leave Mulei Stone behind, and they will definitely come and never return.
Nowadays, there are only two entrances to the Yunzhuan Shanzhai. One is the original North Gate of the Shanzhai, and the other is next to Yunzhuan Temple. Other places are cliffs and there is no way out.
Really, although one person guards it, ten thousand people can't force it.
However, Liu Bowen is a man who cares about the world, and his eyes will not only stare at the Yun Zhuan Shanzhai built by later generations.
The Yunzhuan Mountain he praised must refer to the whole Yunzhuan Mountain area.
Yunzhuan Mountain is located on the edge of the Yangtze River. The mountain is complex and the terrain is dangerous. The mountain is rich in water resources, which can be attacked and defended, and can be advanced and retreated.
In this way, it is worthy of his sentence "There is chaos in the world, and there is no worry here; There is a drought in the world, and half of it is here. "
Third, take you on a trip to Yunshan.
To go to Yunzhuan Mountain, you can take the light rail to Yudong, transfer to the bus 162 or 167 to Yunzhuan Mountain Scenic Area, or you can drive up the mountain by yourself, from the gas station next to the Zhu Jin light rail station to the "Yunzhuan Style" archway at the beginning of the stairs, or you can continue driving until you reach the Peacock Theme Park at the top of the cottage.

If you go up the mountain from the trail, the first thing you will see is the "cloud-sealed breeze" archway. Go straight through the arch and climb the path. This path has a particularly steep section. No problem going up the mountain. If there are children when going down the mountain, be sure to pay attention to safety.
The steepest part of the ladder.
There are scenic spots on the trail, such as Gu Xiang Pavilion, Changshou Water and Snake Cliff.
Longevity Water It is said that many years ago, there was an elder in Yunzhuan Temple. He is one hundred years old, and the pilgrims are curious, so they ask him the secret of his long life.
The old man said that he lived long because he drank the clear spring under the cliff next to him.
From then on, all pilgrims passing by here will drink this water in order to live forever.

Snake Cliff is another story. It is said that there was a farmer, two old people and a small family on the mountain. Suddenly one day, both of them were ill and nothing could be cured. One night, an old man with a white eyebrow had a dream for his son and told him that there was a fairy medicine on the cliff in the north that could cure his parents' illness.
After waking up, he hurried to get the medicine. After taking it, Er Lao really recovered.
In order to praise his filial piety, the locals named this cliff Snake Cliff.

Further up, it is the Beizhai Gate picked by Yunzhuan Mountain.
This is the only door left in the hut, which is well preserved. The wooden door that was alive a few years ago is gone now.

Down the stairs, through the pine forest, the front is Yunzhuan Mountain Villa.
As for the peacock, forgive me for not seeing it.
Next to the villa is a squirrel garden, and next to it is a fishing pond.
There is a house next to the fish pond. It used to be a playground, but it was abandoned later. The author saw that it was enclosed and changed to "Bird Garden" this time. There won't be peacocks in it, will there?
Go along the road, and Yunzhuan Temple is in front of you.
You can also cross the path behind the temple, cross Yunzhuan Temple and walk around the mountain road. Cliffs can be seen everywhere, and warning signs of "Danger of Cliffs, Pay Attention to Safety" are all there.

Yunzhuan Temple is hidden in the mountains.
