Today we will introduce to you Jizu Mountain, which is located in the northwest corner of Binchuan County in the northwest of Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, a national AAAA-level scenic spot, a Buddhist holy place well-known in South Asia and Southeast Asia, and one of China's top ten famous Buddhist mountains. According to legend, the chief disciple of the Buddha Sakyamuni entered the Dingjizu Mountain after drinking the Kasyapa monk, carrying the gold ragged cassock, and carrying the relic of the Buddha tooth. With an altitude of nearly 3,400 meters, Jizu Mountain is majestic and majestic, with a radius of hundreds of miles, dense forests and deep valleys. It is named after "three peaks in the front and a ridge in the back, just like chicken feet". The highest peak is Tianzhu Peak. When you climb to the mountain, you can see the sunrise in the east, the floating clouds in the south, Cang'er in the west, and Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in the north. As a mountain with historical and cultural accumulation, it has been climbed and visited by many celebrities, the most famous of which are Xu Xiake and Monk Xuyun.
When you come to Jizu Mountain, you can not only burn incense and worship Buddha, but also enjoy the rare and beautiful scenery. For travelers, go to an ancient Bai village located at the southern foot of Jizu Mountain—the radish field, and stay in a leisure inn called Gushulin for a night or two to experience the life of an authentic Bai family. A trip to the foot of the mountain is considered full.
The radish field is close to the majestic Laotai Mountain in the south and the winding Jizu Mountain in the north. The natural scenery of the village is beautiful, with thousands of ancient walnut trees and chestnut trees, green hills like Daisy, and green trees lining the road. The houses of the Bai people with white walls, blue tiles, angled corners and painted paintings are like scattered stars, extending around the mountain along the way. The ancient forest leisure inn with Bai style architecture is nestled among the green mountains and rivers.
When Mr. Wang Cheng, the owner, talked about his inn, he couldn’t help but feel a lot of emotion. He still remembered that year, which coincided with the traditional festival of the Bai people. Mr. Wang’s main house happened to be built, and one or two hundred relatives and friends came to his house to celebrate. During the meal break, as an authentic member of the Bai ethnic group, he expressed his idea of building an inn. At that time, the form of inn was only popular in Lijiang, Dali Ancient City and Shuanglang in Yunnan, and there were almost no Jizu Mountains. The environment of Mr. Wang's ancient forest is unique, and his relatives and friends all support him to build an inn here.
From the design to the construction of the inn, every brick and tile and every detail of the house, Mr. Wang tried his best to do it by himself. From the beginning of construction to the completion of decoration, it took a total of three years, and finally presented a quiet traditional courtyard of the Bai people. In front of the world.
When you come to the gate of the inn, the typical "three drops of water" structure of the gate vividly demonstrates the ancient architectural tile workmanship. The flower space around the bucket arch is carved with rich patterns, and the base made of sesame stone is engraved with Danfeng Chaoyang, which is vivid. A piece of white as jade marble is inlaid under the bracket in the middle of the gate, and the inscription "Ruixue Sanhuai" is written on it. A couplet of "The ancient forest welcomes guests from east, west, south and north with a smile, and Sanhuai hall welcomes spring, summer, autumn and winter blessings" expresses the owner's hope.
A nearly 100-year-old walnut tree is located on the left side of the gate. The stalwart body with a height of several feet has gone through many vicissitudes, but it is still displayed in front of tourists with its luxuriant branches and leaves, vigorous and upright. On the right side of the gate is a large screen wall with one high and two low. On the screen wall, the four golden characters of "Splendid Lingshan" are extremely dazzling. Under the eaves of the screen wall, there are flowers of different shapes, and there are poems and lines written by unknown people, accompanied by lifelike ink paintings, which are very lovable. The rockery in the pool in front of Zhaobi has a unique shape, and the stones of various shapes are covered with flowers and green plants, and the fragrance blows to the face. The lotus leaves in the water are green, the lotus flowers are in full bloom, and the fish shuttle among them, playing and having fun.
There are square and round pavilions built under the walnut forest on the right. Tea tables are placed in the pavilions for tourists to enjoy tea while watching the precious trees not far away. If you are tired, you can also take a nap in the hammock, the breeze is coming, and you will be intoxicated. At night, you can also have a barbecue dinner here, and have a good time under the stars all over the sky.
Standing on the platform in front of the gate, looking to the east as far as the eye can see, there are overlapping mountains, mountainsides, and valleys, and clouds are clustered into clusters, belts into rivers, and lakes into lakes. Mountains near and far are sometimes islands, sometimes islands, tile-roofed farmhouses are sometimes hidden, and bungalows and villas are haunting and ethereal, like a paradise
Walking into the gate, you can see a typical Bai nationality with three squares and a screen wall in front of you. Sitting east to west, the front is the main room, and the two sides are side rooms, both of which are green tile roofs, with two floors above and below. The main room is seven bays, and the side room is four bays, with carved beams and painted buildings on doors and windows. The owner said that all doors and windows were carved by Jianchuan carpenters. The entire courtyard is well arranged, and all kinds of exotic flowers and precious trees are arranged in an orderly manner, which is pleasing to the eye.
The spacious and bright rooms are clean and elegant. Because Mr. Wang has a special liking for ancient trees, the facilities in each room are all made of solid wood. The rooms are equipped with central air-conditioning, closed-circuit TV and satellite receiving devices, and broadband Internet access to provide you with a comfortable, elegant, quiet and warm holiday environment. When you open the window, you can see the majestic and quiet Jizu Mountain, and you can hear the gurgling stream in front of and behind the guest room. The star room is especially recommended! A large piece of transparent glass is plainly inlaid on the ceiling. Lying on the bed, you can enjoy the blue sky and white clouds during the day, and even the stars and the moon at night.
The restaurant in the ancient forest is elegant and generous. There are three mahogany round tables with rich dishes, which are eye-opening and delicious. A pot of fish fillets with sauerkraut tastes sour and cute, spicy and numb; a plate of elbow is fat but not greasy, delicious and moist; a plate of cold tree flowers is even more appetizing. In particular, a large bowl of stewed chicken with cold bacteria is fragrant and delicious. While eating, Mr. Wang talked eloquently. Leng Mushroom is a kind of wild edible fungus unique to Jizu Mountain, a holy place of Buddhism. Called the crown of fungi.
There are too many things to say about the ancient forest inn, and it is estimated that I can't finish it in three days and three nights. It’s just that no matter how much you say, you can’t come here in person to experience the ease and comfort brought to you by the Bai people’s residences.
