The "Eye of the Universe" mentioned here is neither the dwarf star discovered by scientists nor the energy source sought in the "Sail" 7. It is a glass "UFO" viewing platform built on the main peak of the Shilin Gorge Scenic Area in Pinggu. Because the observation deck is based on a flying saucer, suspended in the air, shaped like an eagle eye and majestic, it is called the "Eye of the Universe".

A few years later, I came to the Shilin Gorge Scenic Area in Pinggu District again. I found that the scenic area was changing, so was I. The scenic area became more beautiful, and my feelings about the mountains and water were different.

Shilin Gorge Scenic Area is the core scenic area of Huangsongyu Geopark. It is named after the four steep and beautiful Shilin Peak Groups in the canyon. The scenic area is about 12 square kilometers and has more than 50 landscapes of different sizes. Different seasons have different scenery and experiences. In spring, we go green and enjoy flowers, in summer, we take the heat and cool off, in autumn, the forest is covered in forests, ginkgo trees are paved, and in winter, the towering peaks are covered in silver.

Shilin Gorge consists of rocks, gorges, water, peaks and forests to form a strange, beautiful, dangerous, quiet and secluded landscape picture. The "UFO" Observation Deck is located at the "First Bell of Ancient and Modern" attraction at Longwangding, the highest peak. You can reach the summit by taking a cable car and walking for 30 minutes. You can also walk first and then take a cable car. Each has its own difficulties and characteristics. We chose We walked first and then reached the summit by the cable car.

Shilin Gorge Mountain is beautiful with stones. Huge rocks and strange stones of various shapes can be seen everywhere along the rugged mountain road. The towering and steep peaks stand upright and look like cutting pieces, resembling the towering stone forest. They are magnificent and magnificent. The strange pines and strange cypresses are green and straight, making the valley lush in summer. A poem praised: "I knew that the stone forest was born in the south, but now I know that reading is shallow."

Mountains with water are beautiful. Walking along the canyon, winding paths lead to secluded places, and a pool of clear water reflects the gorges. Waiting quietly for the beautiful woman to walk here. The tranquility and beauty here resembles the mountains and rivers of Jiangnan. This section is called the Cool World. The Cool World is really cool. When I came here in March, there are already flowers outside the mountains. Here, there are still ice and snow that have not melted under the Yinshan Mountains. Hiking is cool and fresh, making people energetic. It is a good place to escape the heat in summer.

Water is the spirit of the mountain, trees are the soul of the mountain, water is in the mountain, mountains are in the water, trees are in the mountain, trees are in the water, water is in the tree, mountains, rivers, trees, you are in you, you are in me, you are in me, tolerance and mutual nourishment, set off each other, and coexist harmoniously. Only when I came here did I know what tenderness is like like water. Water is soft and beautiful, so beautiful that it makes people move, and so soft that it makes people move. Looking at the clear water in front of you, the deep and shallow natural clarity, the worldly affairs in the outside world turn into a bay of clear water here, leaving behind a tranquility and tranquility in my heart.

Along the way, the trees are sparse, the birds are singing in the river, the water is shining, the mountains are yellow and the path is deep, and the branches face the sun and form shadows. Walking forward, you will find the strange stone like a cow or a giant rhinoceros lying on the bottom of the valley or lying in the middle of the road. Sitting idly on it, watching the winding stream and green flow along the roadside, listening to the gurgling sound of the water, full of curiosity. The sign at the mountain pass tells us that the "Geoscience Wisdom Valley" has arrived. The introduction says that the rocks here were formed by marine sediments 1.8 billion years ago, and it took hundreds of millions of years to create today's diverse wind forest landform.

There is another village with dark willows and bright flowers. The four walls and rocks look like gods, and the low stones in the courtyard are like bonsai. The walls stand on thousands of feet and green trees, and dead branches cover the Zen conception. This place is like a quiet courtyard. You see,"the trees are invisible, the stones have no place, the house has no grand layout, and the heart is not anything else." Hidden here, listening to the wind, the rain, and the breath of nature. Even if you are sitting in a well and looking at the sky, you can still see through the sky and the world in the sky.

As the saying goes, when people are doing things, they really have gods. Looking up at the "Eye of the Universe", looking up at the sky, the sun and the moon are full, the wind and the wind are changing, overlooking the earth in spring and autumn, the flowing streams, the Eye of the Universe, the Eye of Watching.

The rivers and mountains are graceful and deep, the strange rocks are jagged and majestic, the streams are woven, and the ponds and waterfalls are splashed with jade. The abundant water is filled with strange waterfalls. There are more than ten pools in the valley, which are inexhaustible all year round, like beads and chains, forming the connection of large and small ponds and waterfalls. The stunning scenery is extremely poetic.

Shilin Gorge Stairway, remember that climbing the Stairway is Jiutian Waterfall, and you can take the cable car to the top. Halfway through the 200-level ladder, I was almost out of breath. My mouth was dry and my throat was smoking. I had to stop and rest, feeling that I was really not as good as before. When I came here before, I didn't have these iron mesh and steel frames. The staff told me that I was repairing the elevator. If I came a few days later, I could take the elevator up the mountain. Climbing the ladder, I will be higher than I am, but I know in my heart that there are mountains beyond the mountains...

Finally, we reached the deepest part of the Shilin Canyon. Flying waterfalls, deep pool water, and lonely canyons turned out to be a world with a unique sky-Jiutian Waterfall. The 80-meter Jiutian Waterfall is a fourth-level waterfall, with the highest one-level drop. More than 40 meters, the waterfall flew down. The roaring water was like the roar of a dragon, and the soft white figure was like a fairy. It rushed into the Dragon Pool with the might of a dragon.

Nowadays, the sky falls below the waterfall. The colorful pool is like a seven-color drawing board and a jade pool in the world. This is great. You don't have to go to Jiuzhai, Huanglong, let alone the United States to see the big prism. You can see this "Jade Pool on Earth" when you come to Shilin Gorge. You can check in here to take photos and see the beautiful scenery.

After seeing the Colorful Pool, you can take the cable car to the top. Sitting on the cable car you can see the east and west stone forests. Each of them has extraordinary momentum. Some are like giant pens towering into the sky, some are like jade bamboo shoots piercing through the air, some are like spears and halberds. Some are like lions on the expedition, and some are like jade girls Tingting, divine monkeys exploring the moon, dragons rolling jade pillars, and old elephants coming out of the mountain. They are beautiful and beautiful. It can be said to "explore the canyon to experience the mysterious tranquility, climb the peak and explore thousands of mountains and valleys."

I can finally get close contact with this "UFO" of the "world's largest cantilevered glass bridge corridor", which is larger than the United States and longer than Yunyang. This flying saucer glass viewing platform, which looks like a "UFO", adopts a design method that combines titanium alloys, alloy steel, cable cables and bulletproof glass commonly used in the aerospace field. The titanium alloys used in large quantities have light specific gravity, high strength, and are resistant to acid and alkali and high and low temperatures to ensure safety.

The maximum cantilever length of the observation deck is 32.8 meters, the platform has an altitude of 800 meters, the overall construction area is 713 square meters, and the passenger carrying area is 434 square meters. It can carry 1900 passengers at a time.

Because I had walked the Glacier Skywalk in Canada before, standing on the world's first suspended transparent cliff walk at the time, overlooking the glaciers and the Rocky Mountains... So I didn't pay too much attention to this "UFO" and walked straight to the disk in the middle. When I reached a quarter of the disk, my legs became weak and my heart was beating wildly. I had to hold the inner ring railing and rub it forward, and then rub it forward. I obviously felt that the observation deck was "shaking", so I had to stop and calm down.

The observation platform is about 400 meters away from the bottom of the cliff and is transparent at 360 degrees. In the middle of the huge Frisbee is a flying saucer cabin. There are two aliens in red clothes and blue faces inside, seemingly ready to fly at any time.

Being in a 150-story building with your feet on clear glass, you can see down without any trouble, and you have no place to rely on, which is really shocking.

Not only can you test the heart and experience excitement here, you can also view the magnificent scenery of the winding mountains from afar, the blue waves of Jinhai Lake, and the majestic and handsome Shilin Gorge. You can be in it and be in nature.

Looking at this beautiful and largest "eye of the universe", I can't help but hope that if I could watch the sunrise and sunset here, what a spectacle it would be and how wonderful it would be.

Climbing to the top of Shilin Gorge, the "Eye of the Universe" looks down at the magnitude of heaven and earth, just as the "Preface to Lanting Collection" mentions: look up at the magnitude of the universe and observe the victory of categories.
