Shendong Mountain has unique scenery, with its head in the west and tail in the east, across the Wensi Plain. It has steep mountains, deep gorges, and Wenshui River flows from the east. The dragon veins go west, wandering and chanting, wanting to roar and fly. The Han River, Ma River, Shengsheng Pond, and Shuanglong Pond surround it inside, while Jiushan, Lingshan, Caishan, Xingshan, Gaoshan, and Mashan worship outside. The mountains are far away and the water is close to each other, and they are surrounded by thousands of acres of pear orchards and thousands of acres of jujube trees. Most of the trees and persimmon trees are more than a hundred years old, and some are nearly a thousand years old. They have been smashed by hundreds of years of water and smashed by hundreds of soldiers' swords and axes. They fell down again and again, and stood up again and again. They were born and died. During the struggle, the trees are no longer trees, they all seem to have turned into monsters, growing sideways and sideways, with scars all over their bodies, flowers blooming on rotten places, dead branches sprouting, old age and youth coexisting. Curved and straight branches are born. It is both strange and harmonious. Just looking at the trees without asking about the fruits will make people marvel.
