With the gradual rise of the autumn wind, the Baiyin District Jianjin Mountain Scenic Area officially kicked off the prelude to autumn. The original verdant leaves are gradually covered with golden yellow, red, and brown, and the forest is completely dyed, and a beautiful autumn picture is slowly unfolding.
Formerly known as Baihua Mountain, it is located in the north of Silong Town, Baiyin District, and is a famous Taoist mountain on the North Silk Road of the Han and Tang Dynasties, with an altitude of 1748 meters, and has a long historical origin, and has the reputation of Longyou Famous Mountain since ancient times, and is one of the famous tourist attractions in Baiyin City.
Jianjin Mountain was built in the first year of Tiansheng in the Northern Song Dynasty (1023), and was repaired and expanded twice in the 19th year of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty (1754). For a long time, the folk artists of the past generations have created lifelike and amazing murals on and down the mountain, inside and outside the hall through hard work. Nearly 100 statues of the Four Virgins, Sending Children and Niangniang, Guanyin Bodhisattva, Emperor Shennong, Land, Mountain God, etc., are vivid; The murals such as farming maps, eight immortals crossing the sea, landscapes, flowers and birds, and scattered flowers of the heavenly maidens are vivid and expressive. The stone wall behind the temple of the four virgins on the top of the mountain is engraved with the four big characters of "ten thousand mountains towards the arch", and a picture of Taiji of "the sun and the moon shine on the sun".
The autumn colors of the Jianjin Mountain Scenic Area will last from this month until the beginning of November, during which visitors can enjoy a variety of colors such as emerald green, golden yellow, and fiery red. Industry insiders remind tourists to pay attention to keeping warm when playing, and abide by the regulations of the scenic spot to jointly protect this beautiful natural scenery.
Jianjin Mountain became famous because of myths and legends, and thrived because of cultural tourism. The annual folk culture tourism festival integrates tourism, fitness, culture and folk customs into a comprehensive cultural activity, which plays an important role in accelerating the economic transformation and upgrading of Baiyin District and promoting the development and growth of the cultural tourism industry.
