When it comes to Yandang Mountain, the first thing people think of is the North Yandang Mountain. But in fact, South Yandang Mountain became famous earlier. At the beginning, Yandang Mountain was the "proprietary name" of Nanyandang Mountain. Tang Dynasty ancestral general Li Wei once called "Yandang" directly in the poem "You Nan Yan Dang". The literati Cai Fang of the Ming Dynasty wrote in the book "South Yandang Mountain": "Dongyan Yandang is a famous mountain in the world, two in the mountains, and the south is in Pingyang. It is famous for its beauty." However, due to the south The Yandang Mountain is located in a remote place. The tourists are hard to find, and they are gradually left out. Instead, they let the northern Yandang Mountain come to the top. Rao is so, it does not affect the beauty of South Yandang Mountain. South Yandang Mountain is divided into the east-west scenic spot, the Shunxi scenic spot, the Mingwangfeng scenic spot, the Bihai Tiancheng scenic spot, and the three scenic spots of the Chiyan Mountain Scenic Spot. The mountain is prosperous, due to the water, the Xiuxi, the secluded cave, the Qifeng, Jingyan, Yin Waterfall and Shijie constitute the six major scenic spots. Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism meet here. Nature and humanity complement each other and make people feel fascinated. Landscape Paintings Everyone has a sneak peek in the northern geese and then travels to the south geese. Once upon a time, the poems have been praised: "Before the North Yanqi, now the letter is the most. The day set two geese, the special south of the sky. Not all, and want to paint. After the tour, believe in non-private love."
