The terrain in Zhong Nanshan is very dangerous and the roads are rugged. There are five big valleys and hundreds of small valleys, stretching for hundreds of miles. Zuo Zhuan said that Zhongnan was "the danger of Kyushu" and history books said that Qinling was "the obstacle of the world". The Chronicle of Chang 'an County written in the Song Dynasty records: "The south runs through the south of Guanzhong, starting from Qinlong in the west and Lantian in the east, with a distance of 800 miles. People used to say that the mountain is very big, so it is the end of the south. " As for its graceful posture, it is really a beautiful picture of a thousand peaks and valleys, which is intoxicating. Li Bai, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote: "When you go out to see Nanshan, there is infinite guidance. Beauty is indescribable, and the green sun is in sight. Sometimes when white clouds rise, the sky will roll. In my heart, I am not shallow. "
Zhong Nanshan is Zhong Nanshan, also known as Taiyi Mountain. The main vein is east-west, and the branches are mostly north-south, arranged neatly. These north-south branches are as many as 175, about 10km long (the longest is 15km) and 2000 meters high, which is very spectacular. The famous Xiufeng Mountain includes Wang Shunshan, Taixing Mountain, Jiawutai Scenic Area, Cuihua Mountain, Nanwutai Mountain, Xiaowutai Mountain, Qinghua Mountain, Guifeng Mountain, Zige Mountain, Wanhua Mountain, Qingliangshan Mountain, Wang Xianping, Suzaku Forest Park and Louguantai. The famous poet Wang Weishi praised: "Its thick height is close to the sky city, from the mountain to the corner of the sea", "Cloud, when I look back, is close behind me, and the people of Qinghai can't see it. A central peak divides the wilderness and climate into many valleys. " Li Shimin also praised Zhong Nanshan. "The mountains lean on the Weihe River, and the Qingfeng-xiangguang fracture is inserted into the sky. On the day of Red Fuling, people store rock smoke. If pine is at night, there is no doubt. " From these poems, it can be seen that the beautiful peaks, clear waters, lush forests and bamboo pruning, as well as flowers and creeping weeds in Zhongnanshan attract tourists of all ages with irresistible charm. Li Bai was fascinated, and Wang Wei lived in seclusion for a long time. Emperor Taizong felt that living in Zhong Nanshan was as comfortable as entering the fairy mountain!
Zhong Nanshan has been rich in trees and fruit trees since ancient times. "The Book of Songs Qin Feng" has "What is the South End? There is a plum. " The Biography of Dong Fangshuo in the Later Han Dynasty said: "Nanshan produces jade, gold, silver, copper and Tie Liang villages, which were taken by all the workers and admired by all the people. There are also japonica rice, pears, chestnuts, mulberry and hemp. It is better to look at taro. There are many pots of fish in the water. The poor can get enough food without worrying about hunger and cold. " During the Han and Tang Dynasties, firewood, timber, stones and medicinal materials used by Chang 'an residents and craftsmen were mostly taken from Zhong Nanshan.
The climate in Xi 'an is greatly influenced by Mount Zhong Nanshan, which has attracted people's attention since ancient times. Tang Wenzong once said: "Every time I hear the old saying in Beijing, I think it will rain in the end;" If it is sunny, although it is cloudy, it will not touch the night. "
There is a passage in Zhang Heng's "Xijing Fu" describing the grandeur of Mount Zhongnan: "Mount Zhongnan starts in Kunlun and ends in Song Yue. Zhong Ling is beautiful and magnificent, making it the southern screen of the capital, which is a huge obstacle for Liang Yong. Among them, the line is far away, and the deep valley cannot be explored. There is something in Guanzhong, which will eventually lead to the danger of contention. " In ancient times, Zhong Nanshan had two avenues leading to the south. One is Ziwu Road, which is the main road from Xi 'an to Hanzhong and Sichuan. In the Tang Dynasty, Fuzhou, Sichuan (now Fuling City) paid tribute to Yang Guifei's litchi, took Xixiang Post, and arrived in Chang 'an in three days. Therefore, this road is also called Lizi Road, and now the (west) Anwan (Wanxian County, Sichuan Province) highway still follows this line. The second is Wuguan Road, which is the main road from Anjing Shangluo to Chu and Yu. In the twenty-eighth year of Qin Shihuang, "from Nanjun to Wuguan" was this road. During the Tang Dynasty, Han Yu went to Chaozhou, Guangdong. When passing through Languan, he wrote a famous sentence, "Where is home in Qinling Mountains?"
Qinling Mountains, towering to the south, south of Guanzhong, with hundreds of miles of mountains and valleys, are broad and far-reaching, with beautiful scenery, quiet and hearty, vast territory and sparsely populated, and fresh air. In the meantime, the road net cloth, with extremely convenient transportation, is a godsend summer resort in Guanzhong area. Among the many scenic spots in Zhong Nanshan, the Qinling natural scenery tourist line was opened today. This tourist route starts from Xi 'an, along Xiwan Highway, enters the wind and rain mouth, crosses the Qinling Mountains, and reaches ningshan county at the southern foot of the Qinling Mountains, one way 188km. There are not only forest landscapes in the tourist area, but also waterfalls, stone Buddhist temples, platforms and caves for viewing. The river winds down the mountain, and it is quite interesting to get together with the national highway. The natural scenery of Qinling Mountain can be used as a two-day tour, and this route has 10 scenic spots. 1, the majestic and verdant Qinling Mountains, 2, the ancient stone bridge on Woods Road, 3, the martyrs' tower that is loyal to the soul, 4, the flat river beam in the vast forest, 5, 18-foot Xie Fei Waterfall, 6, the Stone Buddha Terrace in Penglai Wonderland, 7, the Golden Duck Vertical Town God Temple, 8, the Baishen Cave in the Stalactite Cave, 9, and Longtan Cave.
Secondly, in Jin Yong's novels, the tomb of the living dead, where Wang Zhongyang practiced, is the most mysterious place in Chongyang Palace. In fact, there really is a place called "Tomb of the Living Dead" in history, which is also the place where Wang Zhongyang practiced Buddhism, but it is in Chengdao Palace, which is four or five miles away from Chongyang Palace. Now there is a tomb, and the words "tomb of the living dead" are engraved on the stone tablet in front. According to local experts, the ancient tomb was opened before and it was found that there was indeed a basement in it, which was bottomless. In order to protect people from entering, it was sealed with soil. According to records, Wang Zhongyang practiced in the tomb of the living dead for two years in the early days, and wrote a four-line poem "The Tomb of the Living Dead Presents Ning Bogong" to describe this special cultivation method. The poem says: "The living dead are like the living dead, and wind, fire and water are just because. In the ancient tomb, I took the true elixir every day to change my body a little. Living dead, living dead, dying in life is a good cause, the quiet in the tomb is really quiet, and the dust on earth is absolutely dead.
