China's top ten famous mountains, Mount Tai, Mount Huang, Mount Hua are on the list, Songshan: Where am I
When it comes to the mountains on this magical continent of China, you can't talk about it for three days and three nights, and every province has it, such as Guizhou. Mountains and hills occupy 92.5% of the province's total area, and there are rolling mountains everywhere. There are so many mountains in China, not every mountain can be called a famous mountain, in Baidu Encyclopedia found the "Top Ten Famous Mountains in China", Dongyue Taishan and Xiyue Huashan are on the list, do you guess how many Songshan can be ranked?
The top ten famous mountains in China are "the first of the five mountains", Shandong Taishan, "the world's first strange mountain", Anhui Huangshan, "Emei Tianxiaxiu", Sichuan Emeishan, "humanistic holy mountain", Jiangxi Lushan, the world's highest peak, Tibet's Mount Everest, the highest mountain system in the eastern edge of Eurasia, Jilin Changbai Mountain, "the first mountain in the world", Shaanxi Huashan, "Bishui Danshan", Fujian Wuyi Mountain, the highest peak in the southeast coastal area, Taiwan's Yushan, and "the roof of North China", Shanxi Wutai Mountain.
Henan Songshan looked at the list and couldn't help but ask: "Who am I? Where am I? I am not on the list?" Is it because Songshan is not well-known enough? Is the scenery not beautiful enough? Is the cultural heritage not deep enough? In fact, among the five mountains, only Dongyue Taishan and Xiyue Huashan are on the list, and Nanyue Hengshan, Beiyue Hengshan, and Zhongyue Songshan are not on the list. Of course, this is not to say that they are not famous mountains and not good enough, each mountain has its own uniqueness, and Henan Songshan also has its own characteristics.
Songshan Mountain, Henan Province, the "middle mountain" of the five mountains, is located in Dengfeng City, Zhengzhou City, Henan Province, the mountain is wide, the east and west are continuous for 100 kilometers, the north and south are about 20 kilometers wide, there are 72 large and small peaks, the main peak is the main peak, the altitude is 1492 meters, only 53 meters lower than the elevation of the main peak of Mount Tai. The mountains on the mountain are stacked with green, lush, the air is fresh, the environment is elegant, it is refreshing and pleasant, and it is not tired of staying for a long time.
Songshan is also a famous historical and cultural mountain, and Wu Zetian, the only female emperor in Chinese history, has been associated with Songshan many times. In 688 AD, Wu Zetian gave Songshan the highest honor and named Songshan as "Shenyue". In 699 AD, Wu Zetian came to Songshan in person. In 700 AD, Wu Zetian came to Songshan again. Wu Zetian also went to Mount Tai, but she did not hold a ceremony in Mount Tai, but chose Songshan, so it is not difficult to imagine that compared with Mount Tai, Her Majesty the Empress recognizes Songshan more.
If you don't know that Songshan doesn't matter, and it doesn't matter if Wu Zetian came to Songshan to seal Zen, then you must know Shaolin Temple. Shaolin Temple became popular all over the country because of a movie called "Shaolin Temple" in 1982, and Shaolin Kung Fu also entered the eyes of the people of the whole country and was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In addition to "Shaolin Temple", there are many film and television dramas that have mentioned Shaolin Temple, but whenever Shaolin Temple makes a move, it is rare to meet opponents in the world.
At that time, people, especially boys, seemed to have a martial arts dream in their hearts, fantasizing that they were strong in martial arts, flying eaves and walls, omnipotent, and full of yearning for Shaolin Temple, and many people went to Songshan to go to Shaolin Temple. The first temple in the world, Shaolin Temple, because it is located in the hinterland of Songshan in the dense jungle of Shaomu Mountain, is named after the "ancestral garden of Zen Buddhism, the holy land of Kung Fu", the birthplace of Zen Buddhism, the birthplace of Chinese Kung Fu, and also the world cultural heritage.
In addition to Shaolin Temple, there are many scenic spots on Songshan Mountain, such as Taimuroque, Zhongyue Temple, Songyue Temple Tower, Huishan Temple, Songyang Academy, etc., which are all attractions worth visiting.
Speaking of which, in fact, for Songshan, it is not very important whether it can be on the list of "China's Top Ten Famous Mountains", it is not lacking in beautiful scenery, it is not lacking, it is not lacking in heritage, it is not lacking in popularity, it is not lacking in the number of tourists, what else is missing in such Songshan?
