Mengzi Grand Canyon

Mengzi Grand Canyon

Mengzi Grand Canyon is located between riwa and Mengzi, with a total length of 13 kilometers. The mountains on both sides of the canyon are precipitous and majestic. The wind and clouds move in the canyon, the rivers rush and roar at the bottom of the valley, and the confronting cliffs form a variety of strange animal shapes. Rich myths and folklores give them fresh life and make people have endless reverie. "Rao Rong mountain" (the land God of wage village, it is said that the mountain is dressed in white clothes and rode on a white horse) goes straight into the sky, like a giant pillar. Its majesty is incomparable. The smooth and precipitous cliffs on both sides set off its magnificence. On the vertical rock opposite, there are many natural stone monkeys with different shapes and vivid shapes.

legend

It is said that a long time ago, in Haizi of Aden, there were two thousand year old boa constrictors, black and white. In order to increase their skills, they often devoured the pilgrims. This infuriated Aden's Bodhisattva, and the black Python was subdued by shanuoduoji, and was always under his waist. As long as you swim to Aden, you can see a long serpentine rock in the middle of the mountain, which is the black python. The white boa fled to the Mengzi flaming velvet Cave (Mengzi Grand Canyon) and retaliated against Sanhu God. He wanted to submerge the three sacred mountains with big water, so flaming velvet suddenly raised a mountain thousands of feet high overnight. The Mengzi river was blocked, the river soared, and a hundred miles of water accumulated into a lake. The village in the canyon was on the verge of submergence. Azara, a hunter who lives at the foot of the mountain, wakes up and finds himself in the middle of the sky. He hopes it's a dream. After that, he can't go down the mountain any more. He has to wait for death. Now he can see azara cave on the mountainside. The evil of the white boa infuriated the three parents God nairi. In his fury, he threw a stone in the distance with Rusuo and split the mountain into two parts. The river was smooth, so the steep Mengzi Grand Canyon was formed here.

ending

It is said that the evil white Python was subdued by xiannairi and buried in the cave forever. The disaster was eliminated, and the villagers were all happy. They sang and danced around the campfire for three days and three nights to celebrate. This kind of people continued to sing and dance at happy events until now. Under the steep and dangerous Canyon, Mengzi, the hometown of singing and dancing, was born.
