Poetry about the red leaves in Shimenfang 1. The Leading Words of Shimenfang (Linqu)
Hello friends, welcome to Shimenfang Scenic Area. Now, let me give you an overview of Shimenfang. Shimenfang, also known as Shimenfang, is located in Zhifang Town, west of Linqu County 10 km. Its name is because the mountains meander south and the peaks face each other like doors.
The mountains and rivers here are beautiful and the scenery is charming. Especially when the Double Ninth Festival comes in late autumn, the cotinus coggygria leaves here will turn red due to frost, and the red leaves will bloom, which is very beautiful and spectacular. Therefore, tourists have left a good reputation of "splashing the scenery of Hongshan, not Xiangshan wins Xiangshan".
The red leaves in Shimenfang belong to deciduous shrubs, and their scientific names are Cotinus coggygria and Cotinus coggygria. Europeans also call them tobacco trees, because tobacco trees are named after the smoke when fireworks are in full bloom, but the red leaves in Shimenfang are different from those in Xiangshan, Beijing. The maple leaves in Xiangshan, Beijing are triangular and sparsely grown, while those in Shimenfang are oval, so they grow densely. It looks even redder than the maple leaves in Xiangshan, Beijing, especially when the sun sets. Thousands of golden rays are sprinkled on the crystal-clear red leaves, and the elm trees beside the mountain path adorn it, and the whole Shimenfang suddenly seems to be shrouded by a huge neon light. The scene can't be reflected only by "spectacular and beautiful". Only those who are there can feel its charm. If any friends are interested, come and experience this spectacle in the evening. The leaves of these red leaves are originally green. In addition to chlorophyll, leaves also contain anthocyanins and lutein, which can make leaves turn red. Every spring and summer, when the temperature is warm, the chlorophyll in the leaves increases greatly, so in spring and summer, the leaves we see are green.
However, after autumn, the temperature gradually dropped. At this time, chlorophyll in leaves decreases, decomposes and disappears in the sun, while anthocyanins increase greatly, so the leaves we see in autumn are red. These cotinus coggygria trees are naturally generated. They first grew in the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty and have a history of 350 years. At present, there is also a tree ancestor of Cotinus coggygria who grew up in the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty. Their leaves are very lush, and the area of red leaf forest we see now has reached more than 3000 mu.
Dear friends, let's climb the mountain along this Shimen bridge! Shimenfang has been known as "Shan Qi, Shuixiu and Cave Danger" since ancient times. The mountains here are steep and the walls are towering. In ancient times, there was a poem saying, "Thousands of peaks in China are more beautiful than stone, and there are many strange stones." .
The water in Shimenfang is clear and sweet, and there are several springs, such as another Tianchi and Xiaotianchi, which are full of wonders. There are fifteen natural caves in the mountain, with different cave potentials, which are amazing.
Later, we can see these natural caves by climbing the mountain gate. Shimenfang has a long history and splendid culture. As early as the Shang dynasty, there was a temple in the mountains, which has a history of more than 3000 years.
By the Tang Dynasty, Buddhism was developed and monks gathered here, and Shimenfang formed a large-scale Buddhist center. During the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, dozens of Buddha statues were carved on the stone wall of Chongsheng Temple, which was listed as a key cultural relic protection unit in Shandong Province in 1992. We will see these Buddha statues later.
In the following dynasties, such as Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing, people built temples here, forming a large-scale all-stone ancient architectural complex here. Now, we still have intact ancient buildings such as Taiping Drum and Kuixing Tower on Nanshan. Strangely, the construction of these ancient buildings is useless, and they are all made of stone. It's really ingenious. Meng Xiong, a famous poet, once praised them with such a poem: "In February, the red leaves at Shimen are even more charming, and Lu Ban's creation is ingenious, and the wanderers arrive at the shore."
People will be amazed after reading it. If you are interested and not afraid of hardship, you can go to Nanshan. Because we haven't dug the road to Nanshan yet, I'll just introduce it to you in today's play. In recent years, we are vigorously developing the tourism resources in Linqu, and have invested in the construction of Hongye Villa, Yingbin Building and various entertainment places in the mountains.
In the future construction, we will extend to the south. By then, Shimenfang will become a comprehensive entertainment place integrating folk customs, amusement, leisure and leaf appreciation. Our Shimenfang will welcome friends from all corners of the country with a brand-new look! Look at a gazebo in the north. Its name is Le Tong Pavilion, also called "Gallery Pavilion". Length 13 meters, width 4 meters, for many people to rest and enjoy the cool.
There are four pavilions on our mountain, and the other three are Gu Danting, Yuan Tiao Pavilion and Zhang Zongwei Pavilion. The one we just saw in the north corner of the mountain is the Gu Dan Pavilion, and above the Gu Dan Pavilion is the Yuan Tiao Pavilion. Standing on this pavilion, we can enjoy all the scenic spots of Shimenfang, and the Yiran Pavilion will arrive later. On the hillside of Shimen Square, there are two ancient pagodas, both of which were built in the Ming Dynasty. The pagoda we see now is called Xuande Pagoda, which was built in the seventh year of Xuande in Ming Dynasty for the host of Shimenfang, Jue Xiu. The tower is 7.5 meters high and 2.4 meters in diameter. Although it has experienced 500 years of wind and rain, it still stands in Shimen Mountain, facing the red leaves of Shimen.
At the bottom of this tower is the monk's grave. The ancients said that "he had no child to point to the tower (it)", which means that he had no child, so he built a stupa for him after his death to show his respect. The next stupa, which we call "Tianshun Pagoda", was built in the fifth year of Tianshun in Ming Dynasty for a monk named Yin An, the Zen master of Shan Zhi. Its volume is slightly smaller than Xuande Tower. Although the pagoda is slightly tilted, its inscription is still clearly visible. Shan Zhi Juexiu and Yin 'an monk are both abbots of Chongsheng Temple in Shimenfang and Buddhist leaders in nearby counties.
Winding up along the mountain road, there are lush trees along the way, and the leaves of Cotinus coggygria become more dense and the scenery is more beautiful with the increase of the mountain. Its beauty is a kind of connotative beauty. Since ancient times, many literati have inscribed poems in the mountains. On the boulder under Zhang Zongwei's pavilion, there are "Observation Deck" inscribed by the famous painter Yin Shoushi and "Zhugu Dangang" inscribed by the calligrapher Zhu Xueda.
Climb Zhang Zongwei Pavilion and look around, you will feel that you are in a fairyland.

Brief introduction of Shimenfang in Linqu:
Shimenfang Scenic Area is located in Zhifang Town, west of Linqu County 10 km. Named after the two peaks at the intersection and the confrontation like a door. It is a key scenic spot in Shandong Province. Among them, the cliff statues carved in Tianbao period of Tang Dynasty were listed as provincial key cultural relics protection units. Shimenfang Scenic Area is influenced by the natural geographical environment, and has a natural cotinus coggygria breeding ground with a forest area of more than 3,000 mu. Every late autumn, the red leaves of Cotinus coggygria are everywhere, like fire and chardonnay, and the cypresses among the trees are red and inlaid, which is beautiful. Therefore, tourists left a poem, "It's better to grab Xiangshan than splash the red mountain". Shimenfang Scenic Area is famous for its "Shan Qi", "Water Show" and "Cave Danger".
Shimenfang Mountain is steep and stands on the thousands of feet. There are Taipinggu and Matou Valley, which are tall and beautiful, with overlapping peaks and peaks. In ancient times, there was a poem that said, "China is better than Shi Xiu in a thousand peaks, and it is rocky and strange.". The water in Shimenfang is clear and sweet, and there are several springs in the mountain, such as Xiaotianchi, another Tianchi and Qigu Spring. Spring water gushes, and the wonders are natural. There are fifteen natural caves in Fangshan, Shimen, with different cave potentials, which are amazing and fascinating. Shimenfang has been known as "a blessed land with a unique cave" since ancient times. In addition to the rich natural landscape, the humanistic landscape in mountainous areas also has a long history and splendid culture. Tiaogong Temple, which was built in the Yin and Shang Dynasties, has a history of more than 3,000 years. This temple was built in memory of Tiao Boling, a general of Shang Dynasty. Since then, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties have built temples and erected monuments in the mountains. There are more than 70 cliff statues in Tianbao period of Tang Dynasty on the stone wall on the mountain, which provide valuable information for studying the ancient history of China and the social background of Tang Dynasty. It is also a rare treasure of China and is now a provincial key cultural relics protection unit. Ancient buildings such as Taipinggu and Kuixinglou, which were built in Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty, have been around for more than 400 years. There are several ancient buildings in the complex, which are divided into north and south directions. From east to west, there are Silkworm Temple, Mountain Temple, Kuixinglou, Wang Yao Temple, Wenchang Pavilion, Taishan Palace and Wanxianlou in turn. All the ancient buildings, without tiles or wood, are made of stone, which is unique to Linqu and a rare and well-preserved all-stone ancient building complex in the province. Two ancient pagodas stand halfway up the mountain. Both pagodas were built in Ming Dynasty for the abbot of Chongsheng Temple in Shimenfang. Although these two ancient pagodas have gone through more than 500 years of ups and downs, they still stand in the mountains, and they are in harmony with the red leaves in the mountains.
