"The cypress of Guashan is the best in the world." What do you think?

Wenshui is not far from Jiaocheng. From Wenshui to Guashan (Jiaocheng Guashan is located 3 kilometers north of Jiaocheng County), the distance is about 30-40 kilometers. Today, I drove there. The road was smooth and it took only more than 40 minutes to get there. Since ancient times, there has been a saying among the people: "The cypress of Guashan, the pine of Huangshan, and the bamboo of Yunqi." It can be seen that the cypress of Guashan is the best in the world. Their history can be traced back to a thousand years ago. They have experienced the vicissitudes of life and witnessed countless changes. The cypress trees have different shapes. Some are tall and straight, reaching into the sky; some are twisted and twisted, like a lying dragon. Each of them has a wonderful folk legend, which can be described as a historical "living fossil". They are evergreen all year round, adding a deep green to Guashan. The "First Mountain" written by the Song Dynasty calligraphy master Mi Fu on the top of the temple gate is strong and powerful, and the momentum is magnificent. Walking on the small road of Guashan, it seems to hear the echo of history. The ancient cypress trees and the solemn temples complement each other. We are intoxicated in this quiet world, feeling the magic of nature and the profound historical heritage, and we are reluctant to leave. Today's journey is really comfortable. If you want to experience the beauty of Guashan, come and feel it.
