- This is my second time here A decade ago, I had a cursory look Now, I come here again with reverence for the birthplace of Wenchang culture And the longing for the largest ancient cypress forest in the country Once again visiting this picturesque place I was really shocked by its beauty By the way, I seem to have seen a dyed signpost?! Let me see what's going on?! It turns out that Xiaopoduan and National Geographic are making things happen! It seems that this place still has some stuff~ Young people in this session like to travel with old history! After the whole tour, I feel that this trip is very worthwhile! - Our tour route is: Tourist Center——Qiqu Mountain Temple——Ancient Cypress Forest——Cuiyun Corridor Touring TIPS: 1、The temple itself is a grand ancient building with high historical value, and it is also the ancestral home of Wenchang culture tradition. To this day, this ancient temple still has a strong incense, many tourists who come to study come here Going deep into it is like walking in a maze, turning around and moving back The temple is built on the mountain, attracting people to keep climbing up! ps: I didn't know what the cave scripture music was, so I went to b to search for the pink signpost, and I learned a lot. 2、There are tens of thousands of ancient cypresses in the temple, with stout trunks. Walking in the ancient cypress forest is really shocking. The ancient cypress forest is just behind the temple. And the ancient cypresses on the mountain next to the Cuiyun Corridor outside the ancient temple are really spectacular! - There are too many stories about this place for thousands of years, Walking in it, I can't help but sigh at its majesty and grandeur Friends who like humanities and history can go to b to see, It not only allows us to regain historical memory, but also shows us the treasures of Chinese civilization.
