The beautiful Qinling Mountains are beautiful and the buildings are beautiful.
In the middle of the Qinling Mountains, which stretches more than 1600 kilometers from east to west, there is a shining dragon scale called Louguan. More than 2500 years ago, Lao Tzu wrote a book and wrote 5000 words on the Tao Te Ching here, making the name of Louguan famous all over the world.
Records of the Ming Dynasty and Shaanxi Province: "Among the 12 rivers and mountains in Guanzhong, Zhongnan is the best; Zhongnan is the best; Zhongnan has thousands of lush peaks, and Louguan is the best."
Louguan is located at the northern foot of Zhongnan Mountain 15 kilometers southeast of Zhouzhi County in Shaanxi Province, and more than 70 kilometers away from the urban area of Xi'an. It is bordered by the Qinling Mountains in the south and the Wei River in the north. It has beautiful mountains and rivers and a beautiful environment. It is a blessed land of immortals that integrates cultural landscapes and natural resources. It has been known as the "No. 1 blessed land in the world" since ancient times.
Today's Louguan, under the cooperation and co-construction of Qujiang New District and Zhouzhi County, and under the joint coordination of Xi'an Tourism Group, the concept of Louguan has been formed. Before the upcoming "2021 Qinling Tower Watching Autumn Tourism Season", bloggers used two-day and one-night in-depth tours to experience the charm of an autumn tour of Qinling Louguan.
Let's see it together!
From Xi'an to Louguan, take the Laoyukou of the Western Han Expressway and turn to the Qinling Mountains Tour Line all the way west. It takes about an hour to reach Louguan. In the blogger's travel guide, the first day of the itinerary is: Qinling National Botanical Garden, Zhaogongming Cultural Scenic Area, Qinling Sibao Science Park, and Night Inn Louguan Impression Hotel.
Qinling National Botanical Garden is the starting point for Louguan's tourism from east to west, with a planned area of 639 square kilometers. It is currently the largest planned area in the world, the clearest vertical distribution zone, and the most natural scenery. It is one of the five core botanical gardens in the country planned and constructed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences. It is also the only botanical garden with the word "country" and is known as the "emerald of the world."
Of course, in late autumn, thousands of peaks overlap each other, allowing us to see the whole picture at a glance. Therefore, this tour is mainly for a relaxing vacation, mainly focusing on the Gate Square of the Botanical Garden and the Aquatic Plant Area, Science Museum, Herbarium, and climbing up the shallow mountains to see the precious plants. The scenic spots in these areas can be directly reached by car, which saves us time and makes traveling easier. It is especially suitable for taking children on parent-child tours.
The science museum has an exhibition area of 1500㎡. It mainly takes the rich science knowledge of animals and plants in the Qinling Mountains as the content, and uses modern multimedia, VR experience models, etc. in the form of pictures, pictures, models, and videos to provide a detailed introduction to fourteen themes such as Damei Qinling Mountains, Natural Kingdom, Qinling Impressions, Rare Plants, and Four Seasons Qinling Mountains, bringing tourists a new visual, auditory and tactile experience of the Greater Qinling Mountains. Here, you can see both the growth process of a plant and the changes in the four seasons of the Qinling Mountains. It is a good place for children to learn popular science knowledge.
The specimen knowledge museum not only contains specimens, insect specimens, tree specimens, and plant specimens of the four treasures of the Qinling Mountains, but also ore specimens from the evolution of the Qinling Mountains. The marine life in these ore specimens tells us that the Qinling Mountains were once experienced hundreds of millions of years ago. The vastness of the sea.
After visiting the two exhibition halls, then enjoying the autumn flowers and plants in the botanical garden at the foot of the Qinling Mountains is another insight into autumn. Yellow dew, ginkgo, and sea of flowers will show tourists a colorful autumn scene. It is said that during the National Day, the Qinling National Botanical Garden will also hold the Love Me China Golden Autumn Flower Exhibition, so that we can build the Chinese dream together.
Take the Jingjing Bus and head south, and you will find the rare plant area, including Davidia chinensis, green sandalwood, and yew... While understanding these rare tree species, it also allows us to love nature more and care for nature. Climb high and reach the observation deck, you can have a panoramic view of the eight hundred miles of Qinchuan River, and the grandeur of Zhongnan Mountain Ancient Building Scenic Area and Zhao Gongming Cultural Scenic Area. It is really a beautiful sight.
After visiting the Qinling National Botanical Garden, you will find the Zhaogongming Cultural Scenic Area 1 kilometer west. Lunch can be arranged in the People's Commune Canteen north of the Zhaogongming Cultural Scenic Area Tourist Service Center. The meals are rich and frugal, and they are all fresh from the Qinling Mountains. Ingredients, full of rural flavor.
The afternoon trip starts at the Zhao Gongming Cultural Scenic Area.
The Zhao Gongming Cultural Scenic Area is located in the hometown of Zhao Gongming, the first god of wealth in China. The three courtyards extend in turn. They are grand and compact in structure. They contain sculptures, exhibits, murals, etc. related to celebrities surnamed Zhao in Chinese history and the "Civil and Martial God of Wealth" in folk belief., is an important window to understand the culture of wealth.
Old fans who are familiar with Louguan know that in the Zhao Gongming Cultural Scenic Area, there is also "hidden" a cultural center with rich content, dynamic image interaction, and integration of the customs of God-the God of God Folk Culture Center.
Recently, after careful preparations, the scenic area has comprehensively improved the God of Wealth Folk Culture Center in terms of exhibit content, lighting display, and image interaction. In addition to regular murals and exhibits, the exhibition area also uses holographic imaging, naked-eye 3D and other technologies to express the God of Wealth folk culture through sound, light, and electricity, allowing tourists to interact while traveling, adding a lot of interactivity and fun, and attracting many tourists to check in.
In the Zhao Gongming Cultural Scenic Area, in addition to visiting the garden to enjoy the scenery and learn about the culture of the God of Wealth, the "Welcoming the Wealth and Praying for Praying Ceremony" performed every afternoon is also a must-see classic for tourists when visiting the building.
The "Greeting Money and Praying for Praying" combines ancient Chinese etiquette with the local folk culture of the building. It has both classical charm, cultural charm, and ornamental and interactive features. The ceremony reproduces traditional rituals through gifts, dances and other links to express people's yearning for a better life. At the same time, the performance will also interact with the audience by sending blessing rice and other methods to enhance tourists 'sense of on-site experience. The ceremony attracted strong responses once it was launched. The immersive experience allows tourists to devote themselves to it, participating in, taking photos, recording videos, and enjoying every wonderful moment of viewing.
The entire tour experience process takes about 3 hours. After completing the visit to the Zhao Gongming Cultural Scenic Area from 3:00 to 3:30 p.m., you can go to the next attraction-Qinling Sibao Science Park.
When Qinling Four Treasures Science Park comes to Xi'an to watch the National Games, it is natural that the mascot of the 14th Games is the "Qinling Four Treasures", which is the zero-distance check-in. To see the Four Treasures of the Qinling Mountains, the Qinling Four Treasures Science Park is a place that cannot be missed!
Qinling Sibao Science Park is located on the west side of Zhongnan Mountain Ancient Building View Scenic Area. It is based on the existing breeding facilities of the Qinling Giant Panda Research Center (Shaanxi Province Rare Wildlife Rescue Base) and is expanded and expanded from three projects: Shaanxi Qinling Ecological and Biological Resource Protection, Qinling Giant Panda Breeding Base and Crested Ibis Breeding Base.
The main animals on display in the park include 10 to 15 giant pandas, 50 crested ibis, 8 golden monkeys and 20 takins. In addition, there are more than 20 species and more than 100 rare wild animals distributed in the Qinling Mountains, including red pandas, black bears, baby muntjac, gazelle, golden eagles, long-eared owls, eagle owls, red falcons, vultures, and red-bellied golden pheasants. It is a paradise for adults, children and animals to interact. It is worth mentioning that the world's only brown artificially raised giant panda "Qizai" is also here. Its innocent appearance has become the focus of attention of big friends and children.
Warm reminder: Due to the large number of tourists coming to Qinling Sibao Science Park recently, please make an appointment through the public account in advance.
Outside the Qinling Mountains Sibao Science Park, a little west is another scenic spot in Fudilou View-Huannu Spring.
Huannu Spring is an experience place built based on the historical allusions of Lao Tzu's enlightening disciple Xu Jia as the background and integrating female culture, spring tasting culture and tea culture. The pavilions and towers in the park are built against the mountains and have beautiful scenery. It is a place for leisure and tea tasting. If you have enough time, you can move there and taste the mystery of Daoquan culture.
After a day of sightseeing, go back to the People's Commune canteen of Zhao Gongming Cultural Scenic Area to have a delicious farmhouse meal. The mountain breeze is cool and the night is sultry. After settling in Louguan Impression Hotel, you can also listen to a section of Qin Opera on the second floor of Xi'an Poverty Alleviation Supermarket located in front of the hotel. This is a good day, and you can be intoxicated without traveling far.
I woke up early the next day and walked to the Tianyuhe Scenic Area. The air was the freshest at this time. Dewdrops were hanging on the tips of the grass, making it beautiful and beautiful. Occasionally, a bird song sounded as crisp as the sound of nature. Taking a deep breath, there was a sweet taste. Back to the hotel for breakfast, another beautiful day started.
Today's first stop is Fudi Square in Zhongnan Mountain Ancient Building View Scenic Area opposite Louguan Impression Hotel. It is only a few minutes 'walk away. On the west side of the square is Zongsheng Palace.
Every time I come to Louguan, Zongsheng Palace is a must-visit place. This is the place where Yin Xi observes the stars at night. There is Ziyun Tower, Lao Tzu is a Niu Cypress, Sanying cypress, and Lao Tzu's hand-planted ancient ginkgo trees... Every autumn, this ancient ginkgo tree planted by Lao Tzu will become the most beautiful scenery at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain. New green every year and glory every year. This tree has stood for more than 2500 years in the long river of history. The heart of the tree was burned hollow due to a fire, but it still grew tenaciously with only the nutrients provided by a few thick pieces of bark and grew into a respectable appearance. It was rated as the "Top Ten Most Beautiful Ancient Ginkgo Tree" by the China Forestry Department.
Every time I come to see this tree, I will remain silent and circle the tree three times to pray for peace.
Further south out of Zongsheng Palace is the Zhongnan Mountain Ancient Building View Scenic Area.
Zhongnan Mountain Ancient Building Scenic Area is the core engine of Xi'an Louguan Chinese Tao Culture Exhibition Area. The magnificent ancient building community is built against the mountain, fully combining the characteristics of the terrain high in the south and low in the north, and unfolding in the order of the south and the north. The three sections of Taiqingmen, Shangqingmen and Yuqingmen divide the axes, forming the Taoist "Three Qing Holy Land" with the central axis hall as a node to form a nine-entry courtyard space, which fully demonstrates the atmosphere and majesty of the "Daoyuan Fairy Capital" and is known as Shaanxi's Little Forbidden City.
The distance from the gate to the last hall is a bit far. Tourists can choose to take a scenic bus or walk around. It should be noted that if you want to go to Kaijingtai and Louguantai National Forest Parks, you can now go directly from the Zhongnanshan Ancient Louguan Scenic Area (because Louguantai National Forest Park is under the jurisdiction of the Forestry Department, you need to purchase a ticket separately) The Jingcheng Bus from Zhongnanshan Ancient Louguan Scenic Area can now directly enter the Forest Park, taking you to easily tour Baizhuyuan, Kaijingtai, and Lao Zi Bronze Statue.
Continuing south from Zhongnanshan Ancient Building View Scenic Area is Baizhuyuan under the jurisdiction of Louguantai Forest Park.
Walking into Louguantai National Forest Park, the first thing that comes to our eyes is the thousand hectares of bamboo forest. Walking during this journey, we store tens of thousands of tall bamboo poles deep in our hearts, and the clear solar terms immediately fill our hearts. The body and mind also seemed to have been completely baptized, gentle, as clear and clean as bamboo.
Surrounded by Baizhuyuan is the place where Lao Tzu spoke the scriptures-the scripture platform.
Louguan is located in the mountainous front and shallow mountainous area in the middle of the northern foot of Zhongnan Mountain in the Qinling Mountains. Near the Qinling Mountains in the south, thousands of peaks stand on top of each other. There are green trees and bamboo in the mountains. The place hidden is the Taoist Palace, which was called Shilou Mountain in ancient times. The undulating beams and hills in front of the mountain belong to loess hills. The existing core landscape of Louguan is on the hill at an altitude of 580 meters. Taipei is connected to a fan-shaped earthen ridge and faces the picturesque Qinchuan and Weishui River, which is extremely magnificent. Su Shi once wrote a poem in the Song Dynasty: "This platform can be seen as small as Qinchuan, but it will be empty before passing on it."
In my opinion, the essence of Louguan lies in Zongsheng Palace and the other is Jingtai.
Since it is said that the scriptures belong to the Taoist temple of Taiwan, I haven't come here for several years. I went to the scriptures again and prayed sincerely. The Taoist temple is still the same. I seem to see Lao Tzu in a plain robe, staring, thinking quietly, pacing, twirling his beard in the seasonal wind, with an open mind.
In addition to Shuojing Terrace, Louguantai National Forest Park also has cultural attractions such as Wenxiangou, Lvzu Cave, Xianling Mountain, Dandan Peak, and Lao Tzu Statue. It is an ideal place for tourists to visit the building, find ancient sites, and get close to natural mountains and rivers.
Maybe you are a little tired after this journey. You can ask Jingjiao to take you directly to the Lao Tzu's Light and Shadow Exhibition Hall to slow down time and understand the profoundness of the Tao and nature. In the anime Lao Tzu, you can understand the truth from the superficial.
After lunch, if you are still not satisfied, I recommend you to visit Yansheng Temple again.
Yansheng Temple is the place where Princess Yuzhen of the Tang Dynasty practiced cultivation. It was built in the Tang Dynasty and was once called Yuzhen Temple. The scenic spot is built against the mountains and is large-scale. It is a good place to climb and look far away. According to stone records, during the Jingyun period of the Tang Dynasty, Princess Yuzhen, the sister of Xuanzong, once entered the temple in the capital to cultivate cultivation. She built a separate temple in the temple with the Taoist name "Yansheng", and the temple was named "Yansheng Temple".
Yansheng Temple was built by Princess Yuzhen in memory of her mother, and it also symbolizes that all people in the world will live forever. Yansheng Temple was renovated and expanded in the Song Dynasty, but still flourished in the Ming Dynasty. Since its establishment, many literati and scholars from past dynasties have visited this place. Li Bai, Su Shi and others have left many poems, stories and anecdotes here. The most famous poem "Jade Zhen Immortal Ci" by Li Bai: The immortal of Yu Zhen, who goes to Taihua Peak. In the morning, the sky drum sounds, and the double dragons soar. Keep working on electricity, and there is no trace in the clouds. When you enter the young room, the Queen Mother will meet.
Louguan is a place with a story. Every tree, every ditch, every mountain, and every stone here will reveal a charming legend and a beautiful story in the mouths of rural farmers., leaving people with endless aftertaste.
I have always felt that if you want to deeply interpret a place, you must slow down and taste it carefully. Although you have been to Louguan many times, you always come and go in a hurry. On the eve of National Day, I finally slowed down and spent two days and one night deeply experiencing it., discovering the beauty of Louguan, I spent a whole day using pictures and texts to record these two-day and one-night travel in the form of travel guides to make a mark for you and the upcoming National Day holiday, so that you can travel without worry, understand Louguan, and fall in love with Louguan.
