When the first ray of sunlight shines on the Jinding Temple of Jizu Mountain, the mountain that has slept all night is waking up. The golden hall of Dingsi is more and more eye-catching.

Jinding Temple

Looking at the people coming and going in Jinding Temple, all of them holding incense sticks and solemn faces, I suddenly thought of the words about "fate" in Buddhist scriptures.

According to the Buddhist scriptures, fate is an indescribable and inseparable phenomenon in the vast world. There will always be some destiny between people and between people and things, just like I met in Jizu Mountain. When you meet him, everything you encounter can be regarded as fate. Fate is both inevitable and accidental in life.

Family, friendship and love are all inseparable from the word fate. The Buddhist scriptures describe the fate of love in this way: Looking back five hundred times in the previous life, it is only in exchange for a passing by in this life. This is fate, just as I met all kinds of people in Jinding Temple, in front of the Golden Hall, and under the Shurangama Pagoda, all because of fate.

Yuan, let me be full of curiosity about everything about Jinding Temple. There are two places in Jinding Temple that aroused my curiosity, the first one is the Golden Hall, and the second one is the Shurangama Pagoda.

Before entering the temple, you can see from a distance that it overlaps with the gate of the temple is the Shurangama Pagoda, which was built in 1929. It is said that the pagoda was the natural navigation mark of the hump route during the Anti-Japanese War, and it is also the symbol of Jinding Temple sex building. The Shurangama Pagoda is a square pagoda with dense eaves and thirteen levels. It has seven levels and is 42 meters high. There is an iron leaf double door in the south of the bottom floor. Gourd top.

The Golden Temple is the small Buddhist hall in front of the Shurangama Pagoda. Although it is small, it has a very big background. It was moved from Kunming Golden Temple Park to Jizu Mountain.

culture

As mentioned above, Jizu Mountain not only has beautiful natural scenery, but also the culture here is a major feature. Jizu Mountain is the last place described in "Xu Xiake's Travel Notes". It is said that the main destination of Xu Xiake's visit to the southwest border was Jizu Mountain, and he wrote "Jizu Mountain Records" after the tour.

Secondly, there is a scenic spot related to the culture of Jizu Mountain - Huashoumen. In my opinion, the magic of Jizushan is closely related to it. Huashoumen is called "the first gate of China", and it is said that it is Jiashe. The place where the venerable stayed in meditation and waited for the birth of the Buddha, so this place has also become the most legendary scenic spot in Jizu Mountain.

The Huashou Gate is located on the Sheshen Cliff directly below the Jinding Temple. From a distance, a stone crack separates the Huashou Gate from the middle. The eaves and locks are clearly visible. Everyone who comes here is indifferent. I lament the magic of Huashou Gate, so for practitioners, there is a saying that "if you don't go to the mountains and don't reach Huashou Gate, you will be a practitioner in the world in vain".

Jizu Mountain is known as the fifth most famous Buddhist mountain. The Buddhist culture here is rich in history and culture. A tiny detail in these cultures is enough to set off huge waves in the hearts of everyone who visits Jizu Mountain.

Food

As mentioned earlier, Jizu Mountain has delicious food that you can't miss. The Dragon Boat Festival coincides with the rainy season, and the continuous rain is giving birth to a unique delicacy in Yunnan—wild mushrooms. Jizu Mountain, a treasure land full of rare treasures, has a unique wild mushroom in this mountain—Lengjun.

The delicacy of cold bacteria surpasses any edible fungi we know, such as chicken fir, matsutake, boletus, etc. It is a treasure among fungi, and it is a unique fungus in Jizu Mountain. The yield of this fungus is extremely low, but it tastes delicious , is well-loved.

People who live near Jizu Mountain know this kind of fungus very well, and know how to cook it so that the taste of the cold mushroom can be integrated with the ingredients. There are two main cooking methods for the cold mushroom in Jizu Mountain. The first one is stewed chicken with cold mushroom , the second kind of stewed eggs with cold bacteria.

The secrets of the Chinese kitchen are all hidden in these unique cooking methods. "Stew" is one of the greatest cooking methods invented by the Chinese. The Binchuan people who live near Jizu Mountain also know this principle, so when dealing with cold When cooking bacteria, the method of "stewing" is used in order to preserve the most delicious taste of cold bacteria.

When the rich aroma of chicken soup is combined with the freshness of cold bacteria, there is the taste of chicken soup in the cold bacteria, and the umami taste of cold bacteria in the chicken soup, take a sip of chicken soup, the fragrance and strong aroma are entwined on the tip of the tongue, and then taste the cold bacteria, put it in your mouth , chewing, the chicken soup overflows from the cold bacteria, and the taste changes from a light fragrance at the beginning to a strong fragrance. The two flavors with distinct layers stimulate your taste buds.
