Virgin Spring hot spring scenic spot

Maiden spring was originally named dongliye, also known as fuyuquan. It is recorded in local chronicles such as complete chronicles of Heyang County. However, it has not been in the Yellow River for many years, making it difficult for people to know the true face of Lushan Mountain. It was not until the protective dike of Donglei yellow River Pumping Project was built in the 1970s, which forced the Yellow River to move eastward that maiden spring reappeared. In May 1991, accompanied by relevant local comrades, Yang Yukun, a reporter of Shaanxi daily, inspected the strange spring and disclosed the discovery in a prominent position in Shaanxi daily. Only in this way can maiden spring reappear. The name of maiden spring comes from an old folk legend in Qiachuan. Qiachuan is the hometown of King Wen's mother, Tairen, and also the place where Fuxi painted hexagrams. King Wen admired Fuxi and liked to deduce eight trigrams. He was often attracted by the charming scenery of the Yellow River, and he was always in the vast expanse of reeds, performing trigrams and chanting poems. One day, when he was walking among the reeds, he suddenly found a gorgeous woman playing in the steaming spring. Under the blue sky and white clouds, the natural barrier surrounded by dense reeds makes women's graceful posture looming. The scene is really beautiful. King Wen was attracted by this and was even more impressed by the beauty of the girl, who was Taisi, and later became King Wen's concubine. This spring is Dongli. Yes, it's said that Miss Tai Si often comes here to bathe. That's why she's so shy of flowers and flowers. Since ancient times, there have been many beauties and talented women in chachuan, and Taisi is one of the best. Later, a custom was formed in the local area. Before a girl got married, she had to come here to bathe and pray to take the aura and moistening of the spring water to meet the happy moment on the road of life. Therefore, the local people called this spring "Virgin Spring". Maiden spring is actually a group of springs with numerous large and small springs. The big one is like a wheel, the small one is like an ant nest, and the buoyancy of water is great. Standing by the spring, you can see that the bottom water of the spring has washed up the golden sand, just like a huge butterfly, also known as "Butterfly Spring". The water temperature is maintained at about 30 ℃ all the year round. Every winter, the fog is flying, stretching for ten miles. When you are in it, you can drink sweet lilies and feel like a fairy. Spring water is rich in selenium, copper, strontium and other trace elements beneficial to the human body. Frequent bathing can eliminate diseases, strengthen the body and prolong life. Virgin Spring is not only a hot spring and health spring, but also a unique "sand wave bath". The Virgin Spring is not like the general spring, but from the sand layer covering the spring. If you step on the spring, the sand will move like silk, which will make you feel very happy. I remember that Yang Yukun, a reporter from Shaanxi daily, came at dusk. Later, he wrote a poem: a grass beach paved by the setting sun, and a spring explored by ox cart. The sky is so beautiful that you want to become an immortal. Tao makes the "sand wave bath" wonderful and magical! Virgin Spring in the four seasons has different scenery and charm, which has intoxicated countless tourists. The beautiful and charming scenery around it has attracted many film and television workers. The TV series "shenheyuan", "walking into balibao" and "Yellow River like song" shot by CCTV and Shaanxi TV, the folk feature film "married bride", and the film "peach blossom all over the sky" starred by famous performing artists Chen Daoming and Li Lin, etc
