At noon on August 1 1, our family went to Taishan by bus with a happy mood.
There is more than one Mount Tai. The peaks, large and small, are connected together, high and low, wide and narrow. There are countless grotesque stones on the peak, and some small trees are growing in the gaps. From a distance, the mountains are green. The highest peak on Mount Tai is 1524 meters, with a minimum of more than 600 meters, with a width of several hundred kilometers and a narrow width of several hundred meters. The top of the mountain is shrouded in clouds and looks like it is looming. There are many precious medicinal materials on the mountain, including Ganoderma lucidum, Coptis chinensis, Ginseng and so on. There are more than 20 ancient buildings and more than 2,000 historical and cultural relics on the mountain.
Soon, our car arrived at the foot of Mount Tai. After driving on Panshan Highway for 10 minutes, we arrived at the "Taishan Cableway". We got off and got on the ropeway. Along the way, we saw trees and flowers everywhere, red and yellow.
Beautiful, blue … especially bright in the sun. Under the cable car, a waterfall flows from the mountain to the small pool below. The water in the small pool is not deep and crystal clear, and a layer of fine sand can be seen at the bottom of the pool!
When you get off the cable car, you will find the "Southern Gate". Take a closer look, this "Nantianmen" looks like the gate of the Forbidden City in Beijing, and it is magnificent. There are three gold characters on it: Nantianmen, and a pair of gold couplets with blue background on the left and right. The stone steps below the worse gate are eighteen pots, which is the most dangerous section of the mountain climbing road. From bottom to top, it looks like a steep "ladder".
After reading 18 pot, we walked on, crossed the worse gate and came to a huge stone with the word "Taishan" engraved on it. There, you can feel the oncoming clouds, and the surrounding prosperity is like a mirror of a fairyland on earth, which makes people linger.
We walked on and reached the bell tower. There is a huge clock in the bell tower. It is said that a rich man made a wish on Mount Tai, and his wish came true. So he built a bell tower here. This is where the New Year bell rings this year.
Out of the bell tower, we set out for the Jade Emperor's Peak. Walking, I came to two tall stone tablets. These two stone tablets are each more than ten meters high and several meters wide. The inscription of many famous people is Mount Tai. The other one records the great achievements of emperors in past dynasties, and the title is Heaven and Earth.
Further on, it is the Jade Emperor Peak. There is a Jade Emperor Temple on Jade Emperor Peak. In front of the temple is a stone engraved with the words "Five Mountains alone". The word red is profound and powerful, giving people a heroic feeling.
After visiting the Jade Emperor Temple, we went back the same way and took the cable car down the mountain.
The beautiful scenery of Mount Tai is desirable and admirable, and it really deserves to be the first of the five mountains. How I hope to visit again in the future. It's like Mount Tai in a fairyland on earth!
