Yi Shu once said, "As long as a person can be happy for a few years, it is considered good luck. There is no banquet in the world that lasts forever, and the eternal foundation can keep you happy forever."

Indeed, there is nothing in this world that can last for thousands of years at a glance. We should cherish the current landscape, the friends around us, and the beautiful scenery and delicacies we met along the way. At least at this moment, we are happy Yes, it is moving, it is joyful. For me, Fenghuang Ridge is such a pleasant place to let go.

01

Mountain breeze, sprouts, blooming flowers

Fenghuangling Natural Scenic Area is located in Niegezhuang Township, Haidian District, only 30 kilometers away from Tiananmen. A pure land given to mankind.

As the saying goes: "The scenery in the outer suburbs, the roads in the outer suburbs, and the natural air-conditioning in Beijing." Fenghuangling in April is full of mountain flowers and new shoots, which is a good spring for outings.

Fenghuangling enjoys the reputation of "Xiao Huangshan in the west of Beijing", and its natural landscapes are "strange peaks", "strange rocks", "forest seas" and "sacred springs". The scenic spot is divided into three mountaineering routes: the south, the middle and the north: the south route has few traces of artificial carvings, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the rocks are beautiful and the caves are different, the thrilling places are amazing, and the deep places are refreshing...

Here is the quintessence of Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. Huangpuyuan, Guandi Temple, Luzu Cave, and the prosperous "Old North Road" composed of Miaofeng Mountain for incense "Triangle Area" with rich religious and cultural accumulation , with its long history and charming scenery, has attracted many curiosity hunters and has become a resort for religion, archaeology, secluded exploration, wild travel and adventure hunting.

Along the way, you can appreciate strange peaks and rocks, explore hidden caves and caves, enjoy flowing springs and waterfalls, and inspect ancient temples and pagodas... On the northern route, the combination of mountains and water is perfect. The northern line that wins with "ancient, strange, strange and secluded", Guanyin Cave, Xiuxian Cave, Cangzhen Cave, Guyuan Cave and other secret caves and the dangerous "ladder" of Huashan Mountain are very suitable for mountaineering and rock climbing. Friends taste springs to enjoy the scenery, search for ancient times and explore secluded places.

Self-cultivation, nourishment, see the world

Sometimes, the trivial things in the world often have a sense of sight that life is unbearable for ordinary people like us who are exhausted. Sometimes the so-called detachment in chicken soup may just be a joyful discovery of one’s own small universe in the daily life low into the dust. It's the little happiness and the little beauty.

I first learned about the fame of the middle line of Fenghuangling because the famous Buddhist temple, Longquan Temple, is here. Before I went, I had a longing for the Holy Spirit in my heart. After being on the scene, I feel that this place is back to nature, and the mountaineering is full of fun. Therefore, the visit route of Fenghuangling this time is also climbing from the middle line.

The middle-line scenic spot starts from the most complete oriental health-preserving culture practice group, the famous temple "Longquan Temple" in the west of Beijing, which combines Buddhism and Taoism. Longquan Temple was first built in the Liao Dynasty. It is a cultural resort integrating Buddhism, Taoism and local religion in the northwest of the capital. According to legend, monk Jisheng often practiced here and saw the red-chained golden snake accompanying him many times, hence the name.

From Longquan Temple to Xianren Cave, you pass through a cypress forest. Most of the cypress trees in the forest are connected in two, clinging to each other. The shape of the same breath and branches is quite amazing. This is the Love Concentric Forest. Walking along the mountain, you can also intuitively see the ancient health practice field. Fenghuangling has the largest and most complete health practice group in the Liao and Jin Dynasties discovered so far, including Xianren Cave, Sanfo Cave, Xuanyuan Cave and Xiuxian Chair.

Different caves are located in different geographical locations, surrounding environments, and the postures and shapes of the carved figures are different, representing the four different realms of health preservation and cultivation of ancient practitioners. I don't know if the disciples cultivating immortals at that time also cultivated their bodies and minds here, and saw themselves, all living beings, and the world here, so that they could achieve the great way of the world?

We stood in the cave like this, looking at the Phoenix Ridge under the setting sun. Below is the endless stream of traffic and the landscape of vegetation layer upon layer. The moment I stand at the top, I really have a feeling of "being at the top of the mountain and seeing all the small mountains at a glance". Powerless, I can't find a suitable word to describe and describe the Phoenix Ridge under the afterglow of the sun. Perhaps this kind of mood and feeling can only be known by experiencing it personally.

Customs, Culture, Jianyangfang

Some people have calculated that the probability of meeting people is about one in five thousand. Fortunately, I met that one in five thousand. In Fenghuangling, I met the blue sky and white clouds, mountainous mountains, dense forests and winding paths, clear springs, and I also met you who are the most beautiful in Yangfang.

Beijing's famous shabu-shabu——Yangfang Shengli shabu-shabu originated in Yangfang Town, Changping District, Beijing. The founders, Li Shengli and Yang Xiuqing, were born and bred in Xiguanshi Village, Yangfang Town. Xiguanshi Village is a village where Muslims gather. The villagers are good at martial arts and business, and their ancestors have a glorious history. Li Shengli and his wife walked along the footsteps of their great-grandfathers, took advantage of the spring breeze of reform and opening up, and relied on the catering service industry to create a well-known brand of Yangfang Shengli Boiled Meat. Because it is loved by customers, it also makes Yangfang Boiled Meat category blossom everywhere. (PS: With the "toll ticket for Beijing-Xinjiang Expressway" or the receipt from the gas station on the day, if you spend more than 300 yuan at the Shengli Shabu Restaurant in Yangfang, you can deduct up to 30 yuan. Don't say I didn't tell you!)

After more than ten years of development, Yangfang promotes the halal hot pot catering culture and is committed to becoming the "leader of Chinese halal hot pot". "China Famous Hot Pot", "Beijing Famous Trademark", "Top Ten Famous Hot Pots in Beijing", "Excellent Management Award of China Catering Franchise System", "China Halal Brand Public Reputation Award", "Top Ten Consumer Favorite Brands of Chinese Catering Chains" " and many other awards.

Yangfang Shengli shabu-shabu has four characteristics: fresh and tender meat, unique seasoning, national tradition, and fast economy. The shabu-shabu from the grasslands of Inner Mongolia only uses grassland lambs with a growth period of about 8 months, and uses the halal slaughter method. The rich water and grass in the prairie contribute to the high quality of Yangfang mutton. Herdsmen describe the growth environment of prairie sheep as "eating Chinese herbal medicine, drinking mineral water, sleeping on fragrant grass, and covering themselves with blue sky quilts".

Today, when Sichuan-Chongqing spicy hot pot is popular, and hot hot pot is highly sought after, a pot of scallion and ginger removes mutton, and yellow flower, seaweed, seaweed, and shiitake mushrooms enhance the flavor of mutton shabu-shabu in clear soup, which is a test of the soup. And the quality of the store.

Indigenous grassland lamb, served with mellow and aftertaste pure sesame sauce ingredients and sweet and sour sugar garlic, plus Yangfang's handmade, charred outside and tender inside, crispy and fragrant Fajia biscuits are authentic The taste and memory of authentic Beijing old hot pot, a bowl of small ingredients from start to finish, even if it is diluted by the soup, it is still full of fragrance.

Taste, touch, these two senses bring different experiences than usual, maybe this is the reason why we keep traveling or visiting stores. Because, in every place, you can meet different people. He may have yellow skin, single eyelids, or deep blue pupils... He may be a young man in prime of life, or a silver-haired man in his prime group.


But no matter what we are,

In this place called Fenghuang Ridge,

In this place called Yangfang,

We met here,

Witnessed a wonderful time in each other's lives,

That's enough.
