Xishan Longmen is located 15 kilometers southwest of Kunming, stretching for more than 40 kilometers, with an altitude of about 2500 meters. Overlooking the peaks of Xishan Mountain, it is like a girl lying on her back on the Bank of Dianchi Lake, so the local people call it "Sleeping Beauty". Tourists come to Xishan, more importantly, to enjoy its scenic spots. Xishan consists of Huating temple, Taihua temple, Nieer tomb, Sanqing Pavilion and Longmen.
It is a large fault about several kilometers long. On the south side of the fault, a stone passage was built, which was hammered out from the cliff by manpower. There is a tunnel on the way to the stone road, which is spiraling and about as high as people. The cave is like a window, facing the abyss, which is breathtaking. Standing on it, you can have a panoramic view of Dianchi Lake. There is a "Kuixing Pavilion" on the top of the mountain. On the way there is the famous "Phoenix Title book". Because of the word "Longmen" on the stone square of "datiange" in the Tao, people call it Longmen.
"Immortal bones of Taoism, the wonderland of grottoes" are common in the Central Plains. The Taoist View and grottoes of Longmen in the western mountains are not only not inferior to the Central Plains, but also have the style of Confucianism and Buddhism. Over the steep Luohan cliff, stop at the cliff and look down at the lower boundary. The water in the Dianchi Lake is rippling, surrounded by clouds and fairies, which is a beautiful picture of the sea and the sky. The blessing and praying of "sanqingjing" can be transferred in the new year. The "green winding turtle" in front of Lingguan hall is said to prolong life. The "xiaoniuquan" in the back of Zhenwu hall preaches "good heart and good reward". All three pavilions show the style of Taoist. The mountain flowers fly down, the stone road twists and turns to the end, and the Phoenix in the stone house in the "sea crossing place" is exquisite and elegant. Ciyun cave, Buddha fire incense burner, door and couplet Buddha statues are carved on the boulder, which is exquisite and unusual. Yunhua cave is suspended on a high cliff, leaping over the natural cliff, and Longmen can reach heaven. Such as cutting with a knife, cutting with a sword, and setting up a steep pen, the grottoes suddenly stop here. A lot of hard climbing, in exchange for a fairyland, I feel fresh and open, as if standing at a higher starting point of life, and I have realized various mysteries of the great world.
With dense forests, fresh and elegant environment, and overlooking the vast Dianchi Lake, it has always been a good place for Kunming people and tourists to climb mountains and view. Longmen Grottoes on the mountain are even more ancient and precious, and they are the must visit place for tourists who love humanity.
Its nine floors and eleven pavilions road view Yuyu Qiong palace, which is arranged on the cliffs, is extremely dangerous and breathtaking. According to the situation of Longmen Mountain, the stone cliff is chiseled into a palace terrace. There are two words "Longmen" on the stone square of datiange, and then there is a semicircle platform surrounded by stone railings. Looking from the handrail, you can see the sky on the top and the cliff on the bottom. The Dianchi Lake is five hundred miles away. It's very misty, with brilliant clouds, white sails and flying gulls.
The "Da Tian Ge" Grottoes behind the platform are extremely ingenious, which is the essence of Longmen Grottoes. The statue of Kuixing Dian Dou on the front of the Grottoes is magnificent, moving, elegant and lifelike; there are emperors of Wenchang in the north and saints in the south. The two walls are engraved with the pictures of the galloping horses, the floating clouds in the ceiling, the cranes flying in both directions, the peaches and the leaves. The whole grotto statues vividly reflect the thought of "a hundred times the price of a dragon's gate" in ancient China's imperial examination system, together with the scenery of Mount hangbang in the south of the dragon's gate, which makes people think reverily.
Xishan Longmen, with its unique, unique, dangerous and secluded features, has been called "the best place in Central Yunnan" since ancient times.
