Xiamen Yangma Mountain Forest Park Travel Guide! Super detailed!
Xiamen Yangma Mountain Forest Park is located in Tingxi Town, Tong'an District. It is a park transformed from an abandoned mine, covering an area of more than 500 acres. The essence of the scenic spot is the artificial lake formed by the mine pit. When there is no wind, the lake surface is as flat as a mirror, and the cliffs are reflected in the water, just like a natural watercolor painting. In addition to the mine pit lake, the park also has an ecological leisure square and a wide bicycle lane (which is also a hiking trail), suitable for both activities and relaxation. The complete bicycle lane goes around the waist of the mountain, so all hiking trails are connected to the bicycle lane. Remember this and you won't get lost easily.
You can drive directly to 'Yangma Mountain Forest Park' and arrive at the south entrance parking lot. Recommended hiking route: Proceed along the stone road on the east side of the parking lot (picture two, lush with green grass after several days of rain), and when you reach a fork, go left up the mountain (if you continue east, you can reach the Guangyao Qianzai Corridor and the leisure square). After encountering a signpost (picture three), head towards the waterfall and mine pit lake (it is recommended not to climb the mountain from the stone steps in picture four), follow the red bicycle lane all the way to the waterfall spot (pictures five and six, most of the time there is no waterfall, but there is a pavilion for resting), then continue along the bicycle lane to the mine pit lake, first admire the small pond of water lilies (pictures seven and eight), then enjoy the lake and mountains by the lake, and then cross the lake, walk out of a low mountain gate (picture seventeen, looking back at the mountain gate, with the words 'A Different World' written on it), and see the bicycle lane again, go left, and a few minutes later on the left you can see the stone steps going up the mountain. If you want to climb to the top of the mountain, follow these stone steps upwards, otherwise continue along the bicycle lane, and follow the signpost instructions back to the south entrance. It takes about ten minutes to reach the top of the mountain, where there is a simple pavilion that is too plain, and even if you climb to the second floor of the pavilion, you cannot see the mine pit lake, as the view is blocked by trees. After overlooking the surrounding scenery from the top of the mountain (picture eighteen), you can go down the mountain along the same way or another stone step path, and in the end, you will return to the bicycle lane. The other stone steps lead to picture four.
The park is free! Parking is free!
Recommended visiting time: 1~2 hours.
Quanzhou will become a World Heritage site, yet it remains unknown in Xiamen!
Quanzhou will become a World Heritage site, yet it remains unknown in Xiamen
The Wulong Kiln is located in the Xisheng Community of Xiangping Street, Tong'an District, Xiamen City, and is a pottery-making site with a long history. There are a total of 5 kilns at Wulong Kiln, each built with bricks and supported by a stepped corrugated roof, with a square chimney standing at the end of the kiln. Each kiln is about 72 meters long, built on a slope with an incline of about
15°, with a total drop of about 10 meters, resembling a long dragon, hence the name "Wulong Kiln".
These kilns were first built in the 25th year of the Jiaqing reign of the Qing Dynasty (1820) by Hong Tianliang, and have a history of over 200 years. The Wulong Kiln has been continuously firing until it ceased operations in 2007. The products of Wulong Kiln mainly consist of daily-use coarse pottery, including pottery jars, flower pots, pickle jars, wine bottles, dragons, etc., not only supplying the local market but also once exported to Taiwan and Southeast Asia.
In 2019, two records of Wulong Kiln were recognized by the Shanghai Great World Guinness Headquarters as the "Longest Single Dragon Kiln" and the "Existing Dragon Kiln Group with the Most Dragon Kilns".
Recently, the main repair work of Wulong Kiln has been completed, allowing these dragon kilns with a history of over 200 years to stand tall once again. During the repair process, ancient methods were used to ensure the original appearance of the kiln was preserved.
The next step is to accelerate the overall environment renovation of the kiln site and consider revitalizing its use, creating a pottery culture landmark that integrates art display, tourism, and cultural research and study.
I just happened to visit the Jinjiaoyi Site in Quanzhou a while ago. Speaking of the kiln site alone, the integrity and appreciation of Kengzaikou are better, but in terms of excavation and packaging, Jinjiaoyi is superior. Hidden in the boudoir, unknown to the public, Xiamen really needs to learn from Quanzhou.
Xiamen locals, you must not be unaware of this place!
