East hot spring scenic spot

Located in the east of Chongqing, East hot spring is one of the four famous springs in the southeast and northwest of Chongqing. It is well-known in Bayu. The scenic spot is more than 40 kilometers away from the main urban area of Chongqing.

Historical evolution

In 1931, Wang Daixi, the largest pharmaceutical capitalist in China, bought most of the land in the central scenic spot at a high price for his admiration of the spring water and beautiful natural scenery in the East. He encouraged the Relief Committee of the accompanying capital to build roads, build houses and set up evacuation sites in order to promote the development of the scenic spot. After liberation, in February 1963, a leading group for planning and construction of Baxian East hot spring was set up, which put forward a grand idea. Due to the interference of the cultural revolution, it failed to achieve its goal. Since the reform and opening up, the "leading group of Baxian East hot spring scenic spot" has been established, and the scenic spot management office has been established in 1983, which has done a lot of hard protection work. With the development of economy, the development and utilization of scenic tourism resources has been put on the agenda of governments at all levels. In January 1994, Tang Qinglin, vice mayor of Chongqing, paid a special visit to Dongquan scenic spot. After that, the relevant departments in the urban area conducted an investigation and demonstration of Dongquan scenic spot. They agreed that Dongquan scenic spot has great development value and great prospects. Dongquan scenic area will be listed as the key scenic area of the whole area for development. After nearly 10 years of development and construction, now Dongquan has become a municipal tourist scenic spot, and the reputation of "hot spring town" has been well-known.

geographical environment

Dongquan scenic area is winding and undulating, with overlapping peaks on the mountain and deep canyons at the foot. The natural vegetation is mainly pine, cypress, fir, bamboo and fern. The scenic area is rich in fog, less sunshine, abundant precipitation and high relative humidity. Due to the influence of the mountain climate, the average temperature in summer is 3.5 ℃ lower in the central area of Chongqing. Although there is a lot of snow in winter, it is obviously warm in winter and cool in summer due to the regulation of the rich hot spring Geothermal in the central area.

The East hot spring scenic spot has convenient transportation. The main highway can go directly to Yuzhong District of Chongqing, Yudong Town of Banan District and Longhua town of Nanchuan City, and can be connected by Mudong boat car. The scenic area integrates mountains, water, springs, forests, caves and waterfalls into a natural landscape. The way is "green mountains outside the mountains, green buildings outside the buildings, beautiful Bayu and beautiful Hangzhou.". People boast that the West Lake is beautiful, but the East Spring is more romantic. " The famous mountains in the scenic spot are Mt. mu'er and Mt. Ning'an, and the near and far peaks are Mt. fairy, Mt. Feiying, Mt. Songzi and Mt. Lingyun.

Wubu River, the first big river in Banan District, flows through it from south to north. Shuangdongzi at the south end of the scenic area forms a scenic spot of Shuangjiang.

There are mountain springs and hot springs in Yuzhou. The mountain spring is not dry for a long time. Its taste is sweet and its color is clear and crystal clear. In spring, summer, autumn and winter, it is fresh and refreshing to drink raw without diarrhea. It can relieve summer heat and strengthen the spleen. The hot springs are widely distributed and all come from anticline canyons. Within an area of about 0.5 square kilometers, there are 28 water outlet points of the hot springs, some on the mountainside, some in the valley, some at the bottom of the river, some on the riverside, and some in the karst caves. The maximum height difference between the springs is about 80 meters. The hot spring has large flow and high temperature. It belongs to sulfur carbon type mineral water and contains a variety of minerals. It has the function of curing diseases and keeping fit. There are many bamboos along the river, shady hills and green cypresses, state-owned forests in the low mountains, dense pines, tall and straight. There are 72 underground caves in the scenic area. The main caves are ancient Buddha cave, fairy cave, hot cave and cold cave. The underground Longdong spring beside the ancient Buddha cave is full of water, which flows into a waterfall.

Main attractions

Baisha Temple

Baisha temple, also known as Fulin mountain, is located on the South Bank of wubu River and beside the highway at the foot of Ning'an mountain. The temple has a history of more than 400 years. Because there is an ancient well beside the temple, the water is as clear as sand, so it is called Baisha temple; and because the ancient trees are towering around the temple, and the white cranes are dancing, it is also called Baisha crane forest.

According to the records of Ba County in the Republic of China, Baisha temple was first built in 1558 (the 37th year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty). It was rebuilt in 1745 (the 10th year of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty). In 1833 (the 13th year of Daoguang in the Qing Dynasty), two statues of the upper hall were built by Niyu. In 1838 (the 18th year of Daoguang in the Qing Dynasty), the main hall was built by Pu Xiu. In the past, there were more than 30 nuns in Baisha temple,

In the hall, the statues of jade emperor and Guan Sheng are solemn and dignified. The eighteen Arhats have different postures. The upper, middle and lower halls are magnificent. It has always been a famous Buddhist holy land with strong incense. Baisha Temple experienced many vicissitudes and was destroyed repeatedly. It was burned by fire on December 8, 2001.

Ancient Buddha cave

The ancient Buddha cave is located across the river from the scenic Peninsula, where the Oriental world is located. Starting from the peninsula, cross the newly built cable bridge, the wubu River, or the Yanyu bridge in the past, cross a curtain of dreams, da'er cave, and Ciyun tower, and climb a hundred ten level wide stone level to reach the ancient Buddha cave.

The ancient Buddha cave is originally a limestone cave left by Castel landform. The holes are divided into front and back holes. With a total length of more than 200 meters, it can accommodate more than 300 tourists at the same time. "Ba county annals" records: "rock half knot Mao for Buddha, empty its bottom, near the dazzling." In the past, there were dozens of statues of Buddha, Avalokitesvara, the four heavenly kings and the eighteen Arhats in the cave. The atmosphere was solemn and solemn. Pilgrims continued throughout the year, and the incense continued to burn. The Bodhisattvas in the cave disappeared. During the Anti Japanese War, Gufo cave used to be the workshop of an ordnance factory of the national government. On the soil behind the cave, there were also factories and dormitories, which were later destroyed. Looking for traces, we can see the cultural relics of the former capital. This is a rare Anti Japanese War site, which is a pity to destroy.

Ciyun building

Ciyunlou is located on the back of yiciyunfeng and faces wubu river. On the left is ciyunyan surrounded by perennial white clouds. Its location is built on an abrupt boulder protruding from ciyunyan. On the right is the flat residential area. Its excellent location makes it not only live in the downtown, but also stand in the downtown, showing its noble style.

Ciyun building is a three-story building with red walls and green tiles. The style is simple, but the color is bright. Mahogany is used as column, column and beam. The door and window edges are painted green, and a circle of white edges are specially inlaid on the windows. This very plain decoration is matched with striking white, and the outstanding effect comes out. Black green tiles are matched with yellow eaves. We all know that red, yellow, green and these big vulgar colors need to be matched with originality. But here, after a skillful match of craftsmen, not only there is no vulgar feeling, but the building is completely integrated with the surrounding scenery, Red Mansions and green trees complement each other to form the best landscape painting. The two complement each other, and it is a pity to lack anyone. At the same time, the ideal Chinese residential requirements of "high mountain, flowing water, musical length" have been brought into full play.

Wubu boating

Wubu boating is a compulsory course for tasting the beautiful scenery of Dongquan. There are two ways to get the name of wubu River: one is because the river converges with five streams, and the water color is ethereal and blue, so it gets the name; the other is the village affiliated Association, which says that there were five people in the village who were the ministers of the Qing Dynasty, so it gets the name. The wubu river is full of twists and turns. Sometimes the stream is a smooth flat, sometimes there are sparse and dense strange rocks, sometimes the water is as soft as silk, sometimes the water is rippling, sometimes there is a trickle around the field, sometimes there is no trace of the water, but it flows between the rocks and the jungle. Sometimes the sound of the water is like a golden cup ditty, sometimes it flows like a symphony string. During the boating, I was edified by Tian Su and baptized by the local accent. It can be said that this song should only be in the sky, and I have heard it in the world several times.

Boat tour of the river, layers of green hills, green bamboo, taro Qian grass, set off the river green flow, make people feel fresh and comfortable. The green silk river is full of poetic colorful silk flower brocade when its shore is scarlet, catkins are like rain, autumn color is continuous on the water, and the waves are cold and green.
