Mount Tai has excellent trees and romantic boulders, which can be described as green hills of pine and cypress, and is interesting because of stones.

Pines and cypresses are full of green hills.

There are many trees on Mount Tai. From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, 1300 meters, with the change of elevation difference and topography, different combinations of plant communities decorate Mount Tai with lush and colorful weather. Taohuayu, cherry orchard, Lilac Valley, Haitangyu, Vine Square, etc. are all attractive names, showing the colorful face of Mount Tai.

There are many trees on Mount Tai, including pine and cypress. When the poor winter is dying, there are still pines and cypresses in Mount Tai, which will not make the beauty of spring and summer increase the beauty of autumn and winter. The style of Mount Tai and the style of pine and cypress are unified, dignified and solemn, firm and clear. The prosperity of pine and cypress is actually the only victory of Mount Tai.

The prosperity of pine trees in Mount Tai is the first to promote Songshan Mountain. Songshan Mountain in the north of Chaoyang Cave, also known as Wansongshan Mountain and Songhai Mountain, is called "thirteen-layer pine" because of the overlapping of pine trees. The pine tree climbs in the gap of the cliff, growing mist and moisture, moving obliquely and with a unique posture; From a distance, it is lush and pleasing to the eye. In Yun Qi, shadows are floating and foggy; When the wind comes, the pines are surging and deafening. Gan Long was very happy to swim here and praised: "The best place in Daiyue is really Song Zhenqi."

There is a pair of pine pavilions on the west of the road, where you can visit the objective mountain, listen to the pines and taste the spring rhyme. The ancients wrote a poem, saying, "I can look directly at the staff again, but I'm too lazy to ask Penglai."

There are also many exotic pines and cypresses in the back stone dock of Mount Tai, which cover almost all the characteristics of Mount Tai pine. "Shiwu Songtao" is listed as one of the eight scenic spots in Mount Tai.

At the bottom of the last fifteen valleys, a mountain peak rose from the ground, and a pine tree stood upright on the peak, making the whole mountain a giant candle held high and famous for its candle peak.

Pine trees have Songhai and cypress trees have cypress holes. Go through the Doudou Palace and walk north along the winding mountain road. On both sides of the mountain road north of Ma Xie Cliff, tall cypress crowns are connected and covered by horizontal branches. Although it is still cloudy in the afternoon, it is green and green, like entering the abode of fairies and immortals. The word "Bai Dong" is engraved on a boulder. These more than 20,000 cypress trees were planted in the first year of Jiaqing, Qing Dynasty (1796) and have a history of nearly 200 years. At this point in the hot summer, the cool breeze blows gently, and the summer heat gradually disappears, making people feel like they are in the fairyland of "jade bone ice muscle, cool and sweat-free".

Cypress trees also have wonders. From Baidong North to Hutian Pavilion. On both sides of its doorway, there are two cypress trees facing each other, which are born from the wall and spiral upwards, with lush foliage, which is absolutely breathtaking.

Mount Tai is rich in pine and cypress, but in the past, there was only a bitter pear tree on the top of Mount Tai behind the Bi Xia Hall, the palace of the Virgin of Mount Tai, and the rest were bare and treeless. According to legend, this is the result of competition between the Virgin of Mount Tai and the Jade Emperor. After Notre Dame de Taishan monopolized Mount Tai with a little skill, the jade emperor was unwilling to pull up all the trees on the top of the mountain and wanted to burn Notre Dame de Taishan to death. The Virgin of Mount Tai was very sad to see her brother so cruel. Tears revived a dry and bitter pear tree around her. It is also said that it is Chai Wang who competes with Notre Dame de Taishan; Chai Wang was also very angry after losing, so he pulled out the top tree and picked it away. When I arrived at the worse gate, I thought it was not worth carrying this baggage, so I threw it away. The front bundle is scattered to Songshan Mountain, and the back bundle is rolled to Houshi House, so Houshi House is also famous for its scattering.

Strange description of fate

Many trees in Mount Tai are accompanied by beautiful legends or strange history, which is quite intriguing.

There are five cypress trees in the Baihan Courtyard in the northeast corner of Dai Temple, which is said to have been planted by Liu Che, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, when he came to Mount Tai to meditate. In the Tang Dynasty, Li Jifu quoted "History of Han Dynasty, County Records": "There are cypress trees in front of the temple, which were planted by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty." It has been more than two thousand years, and it is still lush and beautiful. "Bai Han hanling" is listed as one of the "Eight Scenes of Tai 'an". But now one is dead. It is said that in 1928, warlords scuffled, and Sun Liangcheng, chairman of Shandong Province of Kuomintang, was stationed in Tai 'an, with Daimiao as the base camp. A soldier held a knife to test the legend that the Red Eyebrow Army cut cypress and saw blood, and beat the Taoist priest who dissuaded him. The Taoist priest sued Sun Liangcheng. In order to show his love for cultural relics, Sun beat the soldier with an army stick and locked him up. The soldier was so angry that he burned the tree with gasoline. Humber died innocently for a thousand years.

Dai Temple also has a Tang Huai courtyard, which is planted with Tang Huai left by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. During the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty, there were "many hugs, and the branches shaded acres." By Jiaqing in the Qing Dynasty, I was "chapped on an empty stomach, with branches and leaves on the kang and a few bows in the shade." In the early years of the Republic of China, "Gu Gan was divided into two, and the shade covered half an acre." Later, he was devastated by the mutiny and gradually died. 1952 A small Sophora japonica tree was planted in Sophora alopecuroides, commonly known as "Tang Huai Baozi". Today's "Zi" Sophora japonica is not as elegant as the old Sophora japonica, but it has grown into a tree.

The gate of Doum Palace faces west, and there is an ancient pagoda in Ming Dynasty outside. Roots grow into trees, forming a spectacular scene of Wolong, hence the name "Wolong Huai". According to legend, this locust tree was blown down by strong winds during Jiajing period. A nun in Doudou Palace wanted to sell it to a carpenter for five diaoqian, so the pagoda tree gave a dream to a local celebrity named Liu Changgeng, who redeemed it in front of the carpenter with five diaoqian. Later, he got asphyxia and could not be cured. In front of Doudou Palace, he met a man who sold wild medicine and gave him medicine on credit, asking him to pay five yuan for the medicine after he recovered. I was really well, but I couldn't find anyone to sell medicine, so I thought Huaixian appeared to repay him, so the drug fee engraved the word "Wolong Huai" on the stone next to my arms. I don't want two locust trees to grow at both ends after lettering, which is really like Wolong.

There are welcoming pines in Huangshan and Taishan, but the welcoming pine in Taishan is also called Xi hope people loose, which grows on the cliff behind Wusong Pavilion and is said to be the embodiment of infatuation. She lives here with her husband who has studied abroad for many years. * * * often stands on the cliff in front of the house and looks at the people who go up the mountain for a long time, hoping to see her husband. It's getting cold in summer, and she still stands there, sometimes as if she saw it, pointing to: "That's him, he's coming!" " "... she forgot the cold and snow covered her. Spring has come, the ice and snow have melted, and people found a green pine tree where she stood, one pointing southeast. Later, people didn't know its origin. When they saw it, they called it "welcoming pine" because it seemed to raise its hand to welcome tourists into the mountains.

Not far from hope people loose, there are five Buddha pines. It turned out to be just a pine tree, which was sealed by Qin Shihuang after sheltering from the rain. Then it was washed away by the flood. Later generations replanted five trees because of the mistake of "five sense organs", and today there are only three trees left. Tai 'an people hated Qin Shihuang, thinking that his imperial seal defiled the name of the pine tree, so they named a pine tree on the northern cliff "Chu Shi Pine" to counter the power of the Five Heroes with Chu Shi's loftiness.

There is a Gu Song in front of the West Hall of the Bell and Drum Tower of the Intermediate People's Court of Zhao Pu Temple at the southern foot of Mount Tai. Its branches and leaves are like a canopy, and the stone is engraved with "Dr. Yipin", but it was not sealed by the emperor. This song was originally named "Song of the Younger Brothers", which was planted by monks in the Qing Dynasty. Li Xiu once said, "Monks plant pine trees, and monks plant pine trees. You and I are as close as life. Song is also a monk, and the monk is also loose. According to Buddhism, we talk about brothers. " The master was amazed at this, so he named it "Junior Brother Song". In February of the 22nd year of Guangxu, He Huan visited this temple, and was named "Doctor Yipin" because of the majestic canopy. There is a Gu Song in front of Mosong Building behind the Hall of the Great Hero in this temple, which was planted in the Six Dynasties, hence the name "Six Dynasties Song". Guo Moruo once wrote the poem "Song Fu of the Six Dynasties" when he was in Dengdai: "There are still many first-class doctors in the Six Dynasties. Tucao is a kind of thinking about the past, which attracts couples to tell the sky. Sometimes the four mountains are silent, Wan Li is cloudless and sunny. Into the rain of nine domains, the Millennium is willing to sing the east wind. " Panasonic has a moon screen pavilion, which means Gu Song screens the moon.

Miracles related to stones

Zhongtianmen is 500 meters west and north, and huge stones stand on the platform. The scenery here is spectacular, with two steep mountains and a mountain stream flowing from the west of the boulder. In summer and autumn, it is cloudy and rainy alternately, and it is often foggy. However, the mountain clouds rolling from the top of the mountain have either turned into clouds, vanished or disappeared, hence the name "Chop Yun Jian". Legend has it that once upon a time, a group of herbalists came here to collect herbs, and suddenly there were clouds everywhere, so dark that I couldn't see my fingers. The terrain here is sinister and the situation is very critical. At this moment, a strange young man came forward, shaking his arms and shaking the earth. The clouds opened and the sun was shining, and everyone was able to escape. The young man disappeared and found a long boulder where he was standing. In memory of this young man, people named this stone Yun Jian. Since then, there has not been a cloud covering the sky here.

On the north side of Yueguan Peak, there are two huge stones on the cliff, which are opposite like doors and named Xitianmen. Doors are naturally formed, not artificially carved, but actually made by nature. Amin Zhong Xing wrote in "Climbing Mount Tai": "Dai Tianmen is the cloud, Simon is the door, and stone follows the door, which is the true Tianmen". Zhong Xing specially named Ershi "Magpie".

The sea exploration stone on the east side of Riguan Peak is the best place to watch the sunrise at Daiding, formerly called Bohai Sea. Tourists crawling on it, watching the sunrise on sunny days and the sea of clouds on cloudy days are very interesting.

There is a huge stone protrusion on the cliff of the snake god, which is engraved with a platform, indicating that Lu can expect here. On the west side of Zhan Lu Terrace, two cliffs face each other, far apart, with a deep valley in the middle. Between two cliffs, three stones are connected, hanging in the air, and the wind is blowing, which is purely a coincidence of nature. It is impossible for immortals to cross, so it is named Xianren Bridge. According to legend, Lv Dongbin was beheaded for playing Bai Mudan in violation of the doctrine, and Lv Zu asked Liang Hao to help him try to escape the disaster. Liang Hao was a literary star, but he never became famous. This time, he won the first prize in the second year for saving Lv Zu, but he is over eighty years old, so he won the honor of going home. Liang Hao climbed Mount Tai and thanked God for his wish. Lv Zu let Liang Hao cross the bridge. Liang Hao was discouraged by the danger, so he failed to soar to immortality. Later generations have a cloud: "I believe that the dangerous bridge only crosses the gods."

Yin Shi Chengjia District

In the colorful folklore of Mount Tai, trees have spirits and stones have spirits, adding strange and interesting colors to many ordinary stones. For example, the stone sent back to Maling is a relic of Xuanzong and given by the gods of Mount Tai. Flystone appeared in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. According to "A Brief History of Mount Tai", "Between the five pines and the imperial tent, the flaky is flat, while the waterfall pours down like a river. It rains all night, and there are stones like pills, which can be counted here. It is strange that there is no such stone in Mount Tai. " According to folklore, this stone was used by Lv Zu to suppress Qin Song, because Qin Song was also destroyed in Wanli. Later, people said that this stone was genuine when Song Zhenzong was closed to the outside world. In other words, when Qianlong climbed the mountain, when the jade mouth of Qianlong's teeth opened, it was called stone picking, so the boulder stopped here, so it was also called stone picking among the people. There is a Buddhist temple in the northern Buddha Valley of Daiding, and there are huge dents on the huge stones of the east and west hills in the temple, which look like footprints. It is said that the Buddha stepped on it, which is called the foot of the East-West Buddha. However, when it comes to the strange stones in Mount Tai, the San Xiao Stone near Zhao Pu Temple should be the first one.

San Xiao Stone is named after the inscription "San Xiao" on it. There are many local legends about this kind of stone, and there are roughly three kinds:

1. In ancient times, three old people lived for ninety-nine. One day, three people went to Taiyue to travel together and talked about how to live long. An old man said, "Walk a hundred paces after dinner." A cloud said, "I'll save a bite for dinner." An old man said, "My wife is ugly". (or "My wife thinks I'm ugly") After all, the three of them laughed to death. Later generations carved the inscription "San Xiao Chu" to show their lofty aspirations.

Secondly, this stone is related to three strange people in the Qing Dynasty, one is Yugou, the magistrate of Tai 'an, the other is the monk Yu Mei presided over by Zhao Pu Temple, and the other is the painter Chen Shiping, known as Chen Sanxie. All three of them are good at calligraphy and painting and are familiar with poetry, so they became close friends. One day, after a gathering of three friends, Yu Mei sent a guest to Boulder, and Chen Shiping said that Yu Mei had "entered the mortal world". According to the rules of Buddhism, Fujian only goes to the mountain gate, and out of the mountain gate is out of the Buddhist land. These three friends couldn't help laughing when they read the rules of Buddhism, so they wrote the word "San Xiao place" according to the allusions of monks Su Dongpo and Huang He, and carved it on a boulder as a souvenir. Or three people are not good friends. Chen Shiping got an official position because of her excellent portrayal of Yu's mother, and was dismissed because of the tone of a poor man, so she hid on Mount Tai and made friends with Yu Mei. One day, three people met outside the temple gate. Chen Shiping suddenly said that Yu Mei had come to this world, and both of them laughed. Jade structure don't know so, shan shan a smile. Later, Chen Shiping and Yu Mei carved "San Xiao" on the boulder to mock the ignorance of jade structure and the darkness of officialdom.

Thirdly, once upon a time, there was a county magistrate who visited the mountain. When he saw a beautiful woman, he wanted to catch her. The Virgin of Mount Tai incarnates as an old woman and wins a bet with the county magistrate, saying that if the county magistrate can shake the boulder in San Xiao, he can take away the cloth. The sheriff naturally has no such power. So the Virgin San Xiao shook the boulder three times, and the county magistrate knew that the Virgin appeared and knelt down to repent, so the world called this stone San Xiao Stone.

Besides San Xiao Stone, the legend of Dianjinwo is also widely circulated. Legend has it that a poor orphan was instructed by the fairy to take a gold ingot from a small stone cave on Baizhang Cliff under Changshou Bridge every month. This incident was discovered by a rich man. He was greedy, so he dug a big golden nest and wanted to get more gold ingots, but all the gold ingots turned into cow dung. In a rage, the rich man fell into the abyss and the orphan lived a happy life from then on.
