★Travel location: Tiantai Mountain Forest Park, Suiyang, Zunyi, Guizhou
The little friend was very interested when he saw the place names of Chinese nature reserves, and excitedly followed the map of Gaode to the destination. Who knew that there was still fifty meters to go, but he didn't find the so-called nature reserve. I turned back and searched again, only to find that the so-called protected area was actually a building.
Unwillingly, we circled the building, and in the end we had no choice but to come to the conclusion: "The protected area is just a title, not a real protected area."
Instead, I walked and walked to Tiantai Mountain. In fact, it is not far from the residence. If you don't go climbing, it seems that you are somewhat sorry for the close distance. It wasn't a famous scenic spot at first, but when you walk in the gate, you will meet ordinary people in Suiyang County, taking a walk with their families and taking a rest.
There is a majestic archway at the gate. Although it is newly built, it has no special features, but at least it has given Tiantai Mountain a name and let us know that it is also a scenic spot.
Construction work is underway at the entrance, and Zhang Xishan Temple is actually a provincial cultural relic protection unit. However, looking at the prototype of a shelf just after the foundation was laid, it was clearly rebuilt. Perhaps, the reason why it became a protected unit is because this is its ruins?
There is a temple not far from walking in. The name of the mountain is Tiantai Mountain, and the name of the temple is Tiantai Temple. It is a very convenient way to name it. The gate of the temple is pink, and there are two big unicorns at the gate.
There are two floors in the Hall of Heavenly Kings, but we can only see the lower floor. The four heavenly kings are lined up on both sides, and the smiling Maitreya Buddha is in the middle. It is very happy to look at it.
The reclining Buddha in the Hall of the Reclining Buddha is quite unexpected. The Buddha statue that is imagined to lie at least half of the room is actually very small. We were sure that there were no other reclining Buddhas around, so we dared to confirm that this reclining Buddha was enshrined in the original reclining Buddha hall.
The Temple of Wealth is also a standard configuration of a temple. People in the world seek officials, sons, longevity and blessings, and will never forget to ask for wealth. Although money is not everything, but without money, there is absolutely nothing, so money and wealth are the eternal pursuit of the general public.
The mountain temple is built along the slope, and we will go up the steps. The Daxiong Hall is the main building, whether it is Sakyamuni in the middle or the eighteen Arhats on both sides, they are all covered with gold without exception.
The scale of the Guanyin Temple is not too small. In addition to the Guanyin statue in the middle, there are also Guanyin incarnations on both sides. The Hall of Pharmacists and the Hall of Ksitigarbha are also complete. It doesn't look very large in scale, but there are quite a few configurations that the temple should have.
What I like is standing on the platform in front of the hall, overlooking the front. Outside the gate of Tiantai Temple is the tall building of Suiyang Temple. Although it is only a small county town, it has gained a lot of popularity recently, probably because of the famous scenic spots such as Behind the Twelve and Hongguoshu, which attract travel friends from all over the world.
Walking out of the gate of Tiantai Temple, another low slope is full of cherry blossoms. Although the cherry forest on the slope is not big, the white expanse is also very beautiful when viewed from above.
We climbed along the mountain road, the road here is well built and can be used by cars. The height of Tiantai Mountain is not high by visual inspection, and we are not in a hurry. We are greedy to see the mountain scenery while walking.
Tiantai Mountain is not a famous mountain in Suiyang, but because it is located in the county, it attracts the surrounding residents, and its popularity is not lower than that of Hongguoshu.
In fact, there is nothing remarkable about Tiantai Mountain itself, but standing on the hillside or at the bottom of the mountain, looking at the surrounding mountains, I really feel that Guizhou is mountainous, and I am sincere.
There are occasional pavilions beside the mountain road. Although the paint has peeled off, it doesn't look like it was built for too long. I walked around the pavilion, but I didn't find the name of the pavilion. It is probably not an ancient building.
It didn't take much effort to reach the top of the mountain. There is a row of plum blossoms here, which are delicate pink. Below the mountain is the entire Suiyang County. It was only then that I discovered that there were quite a few high-rise buildings in Suiyang, and it was a very modern county town. Maybe it won't be long before the county can be changed to a city and join the big family of county-level cities.
Of course, without the mountains as the background, these high and low buildings are not uncommon in every city. But it is precisely because of the endless mountains that these buildings have become beautiful.
I ate dry pot duck in the evening, and the business didn't look too good. But we were really hungry along the way, so we didn’t plan to change the scene. There are fewer people and quietness. We are the only guests in the whole upstairs.
The duck is very spicy, it should be the local flavor of Guizhou. To our surprise, the food served to us by the waiter was really big. Obviously there are only two of us, even if we are big eaters, we can't eat such a big bowl of rice, right?
We are not tourists who are willing to rest in the hotel. After we are full of tea and food, we will undoubtedly go shopping. Our shopping is just looking for some special snacks, and then visiting some parks in the middle of the street.
The night view of Suiyang is not the most beautiful, but it is very attractive to us when we pass by Quanting. The so-called spring pavilion, of course, is indispensable for the spring, and the pavilion is built for the spring, and the gushing volume of the spring water is estimated to be not too large. I don't know if it's because of the black lights, or the spring is just a trickle, and we didn't see its eruption process.
The hollow pasta reminds us of the Italian hollow pasta. It turns out that the hollow pasta was not the first Italian. With our country's long and splendid civilization, I certainly believe that our hollow noodles have a longer history. The two of us shared a bowl of noodles, and when we asked about the boss, it really has a history of more than 1,500 years.
In fact, Changwang noodles are not a special feature of Suiyang. Changwang noodle shops in Guiyang have a good business and more varieties. We simply wanted to taste which Changwang noodles were better, but the fact is that we have no preference for this kind of greasy noodles.
Eyebrow pastry is a small snack with distinct skin layers, which looks like an eyebrow, so it is called eyebrow pastry. Take a bite, it really lives up to its name, oily and crispy, very fragrant.
