The village is named after the stone, which is evident from this. Gushi Village has the saying of "one cypress, one stone and three temples", its sound is harmonious with "one hundred and thirteen temples", which is interesting and amazing, and makes people want to go there. In fact, there are two small temples on Gushi, which are naturally formed, and there is a large temple in front of the stone, which is the Guandi Temple worshiped by the villagers. The origin of the Guandi Temple cannot be verified by any remaining text, but the location of the temple is an important part of the Taihang Baixing. Baixing has been valued by military strategists since ancient times, and this is recorded in history and will not be described here. In times of non-war, Baixing was used by people and merchants, so it has always been used as a commercial road. For thousands of years, people and merchants have worshiped Emperor Guan as the God of Wealth, and regarded "loyalty and righteousness" as the reason for the construction of the temple. Later, the villagers of Gushi worshiped because of worship, and it has been passed down to this day. 📌Tips: The road is narrow, so you must find a suitable place to park.
