An essay introducing Shuanglong Cave

Chapter 1: Shuanglong Cave

I have long heard that Shuanglong Cave in my hometown is famous both at home and abroad. This summer vacation, I finally had the opportunity to visit it. See her style.

When we arrived at the entrance of Shuanglong Cave, we saw that the outer cave was more than 60 meters high and 30 meters deep. I heard it could accommodate thousands of people drinking tea to escape the heat. What's even more amazing is that there is a huge rock covering a clear spring between the inner cave and the outer cave. The bottom of the rock is only about a foot above the water. To enter the inner cave, we have to lie upright in a small boat and be pulled in by a steel cable. . The inner cave is filled with strange stalactites. Look, this rock looks like a boot, that rock looks like a running puppy, and "Jinhua Ham", "Old Birthday Star", and "Peking Roast Duck" really look like something, all kinds of strange things, everything. These interesting stalactites glowed with magical colors under the light, which attracted our admiration.

Shuanglong Cave not only has strange scenery, but also has a touching legend! According to legend, the Queen Mother made wine from the water in a fairy pool under the rocks in the North Mountain of Jinhua, and sent little yellow dragons and little green dragons to guard it. One year, there was a drought in Jinhua, and the people were in dire straits. In order to save the people of Jinhua, Xiao Huanglong and Xiao Qinglong used their claws to dig out the rocks and let the pool water flow out of Beishan to irrigate the fields. Seeing that the rock was about to be connected to the outside world, the Queen Mother unfortunately found out about digging holes to release water. She wanted to stop the little yellow dragon and the little green dragon. In order that the people of Jinhua would no longer suffer from drought, the two dragons smashed through the last rock with their heads. The water flowed out and the people of Jinhua were saved. However, the heads of the two dragons remained on the wall of the rock cave entrance forever due to excessive force. In order to commemorate these two dragons, people called this cave Shuanglong Cave.

The scenery is unique and the legend is magical. No wonder the scenery of Shuanglong attracts so many Chinese and foreign tourists for sightseeing!

The autumn sun shines fiercely on our young reporters who are going to Shuanglong Cave. We can see sweat flowing and steaming faces. It is bright red, but this does not affect the temptation and interest of the young reporters at all.

Jinhua Shuanglong Cave is one of the core attractions there and is located in the tourist center. Shuanglong Cave has become a natural scenic spot for more than 1,600 years. It is 520 meters above sea level and consists of an outer cave, an inner cave and an ear cave. The outer cave is spacious, covering an area of ??1,200 square meters. The temperature in the cave is about 15 degrees Celsius all year round, with warm winters and cool summers.

There is a huge stone screen separating the inner and outer caves, which is only connected to the waterway. The waterway is more than ten meters long and three meters wide. The separation and connection between the inner and outer caves form the most distinctive feature of Shuanglong Cave. An ancient poem says, "There is a spring in the cave. If you want to find the source of the spring, you must lie down in a boat." To enter the inner cave from the outer cave, you must lie flat on the boat, rub the cliff on your back and enter against the water. It is a thrilling and interesting way to visit. It is unique and has the reputation of "a wonder of water and stone". The inner cave is slightly larger than the outer cave. If the outer cave is the "Dragon Hall", then the inner cave is the "Dragon Palace".

We gradually felt the maple leaves in the mountains and the small animals traveling around. All these made us forget In addition to the fatigue caused by climbing the mountain, the sun was blocked by the tall trees and allowed us to cool down.

It is a beautiful place. It is divided into two caves: the outer cave is tall and bright, and the inner cave is full of strange things.

I was enjoying the wind and admiring the surrounding scenery along the way. The car drove slowly around the mountain road. The lush trees on both sides were full of life. I was also full of enthusiasm for this trip to Shuanglong Cave. Feeling of joy. The most interesting thing about Shuanglong Cave is that you have to lie on a boat to enter the inner cave.

When I was lying on the boat, as if the stone wall was about to touch the tip of my nose, I felt nervous. At this time, my mother saw me and said to me: "Don't be afraid, kid. We’ll be there in a moment, and there are more interesting rocks inside!” When we arrived at the inner cave, wow! There are stones that look like various animals and people, some look like white snow, and some look like terraced fields

Chapter 4: Visit Jinhua Shuanglong Cave

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, we went to Jinhua Shuanglong Cave.

After driving out of Hangzhou for about 2 hours, we entered the winding mountain road to Shuanglong Cave Scenic Area. The mountains are covered with tall and lush trees, and the green leaves are so delicate and sparkling in the sunlight. The sand on the mountains is pink, and it seems that it has not been seen elsewhere. The pink mountains are set against the green trees, and everything is bright before your eyes.

We walked through the "Yaochi" with crystal clear water and swaying water plants, and walked across the bridge where Li Qingzhao once stopped to lament. Guided by the melodious sound of the clear spring in the cave, we arrived at the core area—— Double Dragon Cave. Legend has it that there are two dragons, green and yellow, welcoming everyone at the entrance of the cave. I looked up, haha! Sure enough, there are two dragons. The green dragon is on the left and the yellow dragon is on the right. Qinglong stretched out his little paws and said to everyone: "I wish you a happy New Year! All the best!" while Huanglong grinned and welcomed guests from all over the world. hey-hey! Let me tell you, in fact, the so-called two dragons are two stalactites. It is just because they look like dragons that the cave is called Shuanglong Cave.

Shuanglong Cave is known as the "wonder of water and stone". "There is a spring in the cave. If you want to find the spring, you can lie down on a boat." Because there is a 12-meter-wide stone beam between the inner and outer caves pressing on the spring water. , leaving only 20 to 30 centimeters of space, so if you want to enter the inner cave, you must lie on your back on the boat. I was lying on my back in the boat, and row after row of strange-shaped rocks passed before my eyes. It seemed that if I raised my head for a moment, my nose would be scratched, and my forehead would be broken. This shows how strange the rocks are.

Entering the inner cave, the cave was completely dark. The tour guide held a flashlight and kept reminding everyone to be careful where they stepped, but we still kept slipping. The aunt stopped in front of a huge stone. She illuminated it with a flashlight while explaining: "In our cave, there is a hospitable Dragon King. In order to welcome us, he also specially bought Jinhua's local specialties-ham sausage and crispy cakes." Cake," after saying that, Auntie shined the flashlight diagonally above me, wow! Sure enough, those flat stones are like pieces of fragrant ham, and those round stones are like delicious shortbread. The lifelike stones made me feel like I had tasted these delicious foods, and I couldn't help but marvel at the power of nature.

The beautiful scenery of Jinhua Shuanglong Cave makes me linger. Please read the introduction in the book for yourself!

Chapter 5: Shuanglong Cave

On the fourth day of the first lunar month, our whole family went to Jinhua’s Shuanglong Cave.

Going up the mountain through Luodian, the mountain road is winding and winding all the way up. The mountain is misty and misty, as if it is covered with a veil. After about half an hour's drive, we finally arrived at Shuanglong Cave.

The rain was pouring down, and we were wearing raincoats and waiting for the boat outside the cave. A clear stream flows down the mountain from the cave. On the top of the cave are engraved five large red characters of "Thirty-Six Cave Heavens". There are two natural stone dragons on both sides of the cave. The dragon's head sticks out of the rock, and the dragon's body is submerged in the crevices of the stone. The look of his teeth and claws was intimidating.

Walking inside, you will reach the outer cave. The outer cave is very spacious and has a high ceiling, which looks particularly bright under the light. I walked in as quickly as possible, eager to get on the boat and explore the cave. At this time, I came to the "small pier" and the boat docked at my feet. I quickly stepped on the boat. The boat was swaying in the water. I stumbled and almost fell. Fortunately, I held on to the railing with both hands. Plant your feet firmly. I followed the staff's instructions and lay down on my back on the boat. It was a bit crowded for six people to lie flat on one boat. I lay in the middle and opened my eyes excitedly, waiting for the lying boat to send us into the inner cave. I saw the staff lifting the iron hook As soon as I made a move, the boat began to move slowly, and my eyes gradually became dim, as if the rocks on top were squeezing towards me. I stayed still for fear that I would bruise my nose and break my forehead if I raised my head. After about ten seconds of traveling, the boat reached the other side. This is the inner cave. The inner cave is not as dark as I imagined. The colorful lights dye the stalactites into various colors, which is so beautiful. Some of the stalactites look like turtles, some look like giant dragons, and some look like corals. My favorite is the "Mother and Child Waterfall", which is composed of It consists of two waterfalls. The water from the upper waterfall flows into the lower waterfall, so it is called "Mother and Child Waterfall". Before I even got close, I heard the "swishing" sound of flowing water. Look! The water at the top poured down like silver chains without any obstruction, splashing countless crystal water splashes. Over time, it smashed the rocks below into many small potholes, which was very spectacular. The "crash" sound cast a mysterious veil on Shuanglong Cave.

Before we knew it, it was getting dark, and we reluctantly left. Jinhua Shuanglong Cave really made me forget to leave!

Chapter 6: Remembering the Double Dragon Cave in Jinhua

This semester, we studied "Remembering the Double Dragon Cave in Jinhua" written by Mr. Ye Shengtao, and we felt deeply about it. So we decided to follow the textbook and Mr. Ye Shengtao’s footsteps to visit Shuanglong Cave.

Entering the scenic spot, although there was light rain in the air, the entire mountain was washed clean by the rain, exuding the aura of water. When we came to the entrance of the cave, we saw a white dragon head and a green dragon head on the left and right sides above the entrance. They seemed to be leaning out of the hole and looking at us curiously from a distance. Walking into the cave entrance, he lay on his back on the boat. As the rope was lengthened, the boat slowly entered the inner cave. It’s the same as what Mr. Ye wrote: It seems that if you raise your head even slightly, you will break your forehead or scratch your nose.

When we arrived at the inner cave, the stalactites and stalagmites in the cave were colorful under the colorful lights. The patterns they form are various. From one side, they look like one thing, and from that side, they look like something else. It’s really ever-changing. At this moment, I suddenly felt the miracles created by nature for us!

I stood next to a stone and looked at a stone that looked like a bat in the distance.

Suddenly there were a few "squeaking" sounds coming from the bat stone to my ears through the noise, "Ah!" It turned out that this was not a stone, but a real bat. I heard from the tour guide that these bats hide here when it rains. I counted seven bats in one ***. I guess these bats are the descendants of the bats Mr. Ye once saw. hehe!

I listened gently again, and sure enough I heard the sound of some streams. I immediately thought of the stream in the article, sometimes wide, sometimes narrow, sometimes slow, sometimes rapid, flowing into the "mysterious" black hole.

We followed the stream to a spacious place, and a majestic waterfall appeared in front of us. The water flowed out from a hole that looked like a big spout, bounced on the stone wall, and then bounced onto my face. A hint of coolness immediately spread from my face. Mother and Child Falls This waterfall is located in the curling cave, which I never want to go back to. We climbed the high stone steps again and exited the cave.

A ray of sunshine shines on my face and on the stone steps. Everything in Shuanglong Cave fascinates me, and this trip will be engraved in my heart forever.

Chapter 7: Visit Jinhua Shuanglong Cave

Today’s weather was surprisingly good. Our family drove to Jinhua to visit the most famous scenic spot there - Shuanglong Cave.

We took a scenic tour bus up the mountain. All the way around the mountains, a circle goes up. The swaying left and right made me dizzy. When I was bored, I started to admire the scenery outside the window. The soil on the mountain is light red, and big trees stand on both sides, very majestic. Although there are no delicate and tender azaleas as mentioned in the text on the mountain, those colorful wild flowers are blooming, which also constitutes a unique scenery. At this time, a fresh autumn wind blew in outside the window, which made me feel refreshed. I stuck my head out and looked around, ah! It turned out that we had arrived at Deer Lake, and the crystal clear water was rippled by the autumn wind. The nearby trees rustled. This beautiful and harmonious natural scenery not only makes those who are dizzy straighten their backs and cheer up.

After getting off the bus, our family went straight to the long queue in front of Shuanglong Cave. We were late and had to queue further back. After several hours of queuing, I finally entered the entrance of Shuanglong Cave. The entrance to the cave is very spacious. Although there were many people in line, it still seemed empty.

Going forward, our family went to the boat ride. I lay flat in the boat and the boat moved forward slowly. When I passed the narrow gap, I was also a little scared. The rock was very close at hand, only about one meter away. If I raised my head a little, It will definitely break your forehead and scratch your nose.

After a lot of twists and turns, I finally entered Shuanglong Cave. The power was dark, and the colorful lights reflected on the rocks of different shapes, making them more realistic. There is a white rabbit stealing medicine, a frog climbing up the mountain, and a bat standing upside down, which makes people admire it.

Following the uneven stairs, we came to the curling hole. A little bit of rain fell on us. I looked up and saw what a huge waterfall. It was like thousands of horses galloping down, majestic. The sound made by the momentum was deafening. The splashing water drops immersed me in it.

After walking out of the cave, I couldn’t help but give a thumbs up for the miraculous craftsmanship of nature. Such spectacular and beautiful scenery cannot be achieved artificially!

Chapter 8: Touring Jinhua Shuanglong Cave

I heard that the Shuanglong Cave in Jinhua has rugged rocks and deep and secluded paths. During the summer vacation, our family went there to have fun.

From a distance, I saw the entrance of the cave that looked like a dragon's head. Inside the cave entrance, there are two small dragons hovering on the top of the cave. Although there were many people lining up, they seemed so insignificant in front of this huge cave entrance.

To get to the deeper cave, you have to take a boat through a row of low rocks. I was sitting on the boat, and a large row of rocks flashed before my eyes. I have to say that it was not thrilling. When I got inside, I saw that there were paths running through the cave, like an underground maze.

Not only are there many roads in the cave, but the shapes of the stalactites are also all kinds of strange. In the cave, there is a view almost every step of the way. You see, on a road, I suddenly encountered a Buddha's hand stretched out. It was composed of dozens of stalactites. Looking above the head, it is a Jinhua ham. The flesh-colored stones and a pebble that look like pig's trotters form a lifelike ham. When I looked at the ground, I saw a toad with a bird on its head. Isn't this a toad that wants to eat swan meat?

After walking through a passage, we arrived at the curling hole. When I walked into the curling hole, a few water droplets flew towards me, wow! There is also a waterfall in the cave! This is a small waterfall, but the sound of the waterfall in the cave is even more majestic. When the waterfall hit some rocks, I measured out the water droplets, which were like pearls. Going further up, it turned out to be another waterfall! This one was a little bigger and more powerful. It was like a small silver dragon, and it jumped down in the cave roof. When water was poured into it, tens of millions of small water droplets were detected. The small ones are like needles, permeating the air, and the big ones are like pearls, measuring on our faces. Dad said this is the Mother-Child Falls. The upper waterfall forms a water drift, and another falls below. There are two waterfalls in the cave. It is really a strange sight. Here, illuminated by colorful lights, it looks like Lu Liqi’s glass palace.

Here is the magical Shuanglong Cave scenery, which is breathtaking.

Shuanglong Cave is about 520 meters above sea level and consists of an inner cave, an outer cave and an ear cave. There have always been three theories about how "Shuanglong" got its name:

First, Fang, a famous scholar in the Song Dynasty Feng believed in the "Jinhua Cave Sky Notes" that "Double Dragons" are in the inner cave: "The two dragons stooped and stepped into the water into the inner cave. They have a winding shape, with head, horns and beards, two or two, bent and flat, with white claw tips and jade-like stone. They are so-called double dragons." Modern writer Ye Shengtao's "Record of Jinhua's Double Dragon Cave" also holds this view: "The scenery in the inner cave is, of course, the two dragons that are winding on the top of the cave, a yellow dragon and a green dragon."

Second, Zheng Dongbai, who was appointed magistrate of Jinhua County in the 27th year of Jiajing reign in the Ming Dynasty, believed in his "Jinhua Travels" that the ascending and descending dragon was outside the cave hall: "The cave gate pavilion is as wide as a building, the stone cover is as if it is made of stone, and there are stone milk hanging down, like "It looks like a dragon rising and descending." Xu Xiake, a famous traveler in the Ming Dynasty, also said this in his "Diary of Travels in Zhejiang": "The outer cave is as vast as a tall building, but the stone ribs are too straight and the stone milk is drooping, making all kinds of strange shapes. The unusual shape is where the name "Double Dragons" comes from."

Thirdly, the "Jinhua City Chronicle" compiled in 1992 believes that "Double Dragons" are at the outer entrance of the cave: "Shuanglong Cave: There are stalactites and green stalactites hanging on both sides. One yellow resembles two dragon heads. The two dragon heads are in the outer cave, but the dragon body is hidden in the inner cave, so it is called "Double Dragon Cave". Legend has it that in ancient Wuzhou, there were years of drought and people were in dire straits. After knowing this, the green dragon and the yellow dragon stole water from Tianchi. He saved the people, but because he violated the rules of heaven, the Queen Mother pinned down his neck with a huge stone and trapped him in the double dragon cave. However, the double dragon still stubbornly raised his head and spit out water, and the clear spring water continues to gurgling to this day.
