North Wudang
North Wudang is also known. The temple is located in North Wudang. It was first built in the Tang Dynasty, where Tang Jingde crossed the river and renovated temples. Dielie Temple
Introduction
In the second year of Zhengtong (1437), the inspection department of dieliexun was under the jurisdiction of jingluwei. After the inspection department was abolished in the tenth year of Chenghua (1474), "a hollow building was built beside it to wait and see, but now it is abandoned. A temple was built on it, which is named Wudang in the north, and has a tablet.
The main hall is dedicated to Emperor Zhenwu, with five dragon gods standing on both sides.
During the Jiajing reign of the Ming Dynasty, Huang Shiyou, a guerrilla in Guyuan, patrolled the border. He lost his salary and made great efforts to rebuild it. The plaque said "Zhenwu Temple". According to the historical records, it is "miraculous and beneficial, and many people are blessed".
There were also large-scale construction in the Qing Dynasty. After the great earthquake in the ninth year of the Republic of China, it still had a large scale. The temple fair on the third of March was extremely prosperous. For example, there was a saying that the seventy-two fairs and thirty-six mountain dragon sedan chairs were the great emperor of Zhenwu.
It was destroyed by the cultural revolution. In recent years, people in Pingchuan, Jingyuan, Jingtai and other counties and districts have raised funds for construction, which can restore the old view.
Climbing on it, I saw two stones protruding under the temple, like a turtle and a snake whispering to each other, and a mountain on the lower left side was like a tame elephant.
Under the temple, pingchou is an ancient river course. Looking forward, the Yellow River is running, the waves are rolling, and there is a red mountain on the west side of the river. The sunset is shining and the atmosphere is myriad, which makes people nostalgic.
On the red sandstone cliff on the West Bank of the Yellow River is the famous Fushou mountain stone carving.
The stone carving was carved in 1747, the twelfth year of Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty. It was engraved with the four characters of "holding the lamp to shine on the bank" in the double hook regular script. It is a vivid image of the mountain.
There are small characters on the side, which are Taoist Scriptures. It has a certain reference value for the study of Qing Dynasty calligraphy. Diezhao Wangyue is listed as one of the eight scenic spots in Pingchuan,
His poems are as follows:
The North Wudang is surrounded by the surging waves.
Microwave culvert on the haze run, weeping willow jujube jujube jujube jujube jujube jujube pistil fragrance.
Su Lian meets yinhanmiao, Danfeng sends caixiachang.
In Tang and Ming Dynasties, the ancient temples were full of spirit and emptiness, sneaking into the farmhouse baiyutang.

Historical records
According to the inscription on the completion of the side hall of Wudang Mountain in Pingluo, there are Wudang people in the city, who are connected with Helan Mountain and named after the image of Zhu Yuanwu. Incense has flourished for a long time. In the 40th year of Qianlong reign, three Buddha statues suddenly appeared on the cliff.
After Yuan Wu hall, the former Zen Master Sheng Ren chiseled stones to expand the earth, and five couplets (one for one) in Laoshi hall were used to provide Buddha statues in it. He was suffering from illness and responded to every request. "
Although this passage has magical color, it tells us that Wudang temple was originally a Taoist temple, but it had evolved into a Buddhist temple during the reign of Emperor Qianlong.
Because of its magical legend, it attracts hundreds of faithful men and women to Wudang temple to burn incense and pray for the blessing of the gods.
In particular, on the Buddha's birthday on April 8 of the lunar calendar, the Han and Mongolian people, hundreds of miles around Helan Mountain, gather in Wudang Mountain to worship the Buddha. The crowd stretches for miles, and the Wudang temple is full of incense. People call it pilgrimage day.
Shoufu temple in Wudang Mountain was built at an unknown time. According to the existing inscription on the establishment of lions in Wudang Mountain in 1809, Wudang Mountain Temple is "an ancient temple in the mountains and a famous orchid in the Western Xia Dynasty". In the thirtieth year of Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty, monk Weng of the province lived here and "vowed to build the temple, and the Great Buddha Temple turned three times and five Ying, standing majestic and towering in the sky". Even if they were converted and worshipped by Mongols, it would last forever.
Myths and legends
Why build a temple in Wudang Mountain of Shizuishan? There is a magic legend here: in 1689 ad, the soldiers patrolling Shizuishan were patrolling at the foot of the mountain every night. They often heard the call of "carry me on your back". One night, when the soldiers heard the call, they agreed. Suddenly, a man appeared on a soldier's back, so they had to carry him away. And asked the person on his back, where do you live, what's your last name, why are you here alone in the middle of the night? But never listen to the person behind the answer. After walking for several miles, I feel heavier and heavier. Finally, I can't walk any more. The soldier said angrily, "you are a stone man! Why don't you talk? " The voice did not fall, the person on the back fell to the ground. When the soldier lit the torch, it turned out to be a stone statue of wuliangshou Buddha. Just here, there is a cave on the side of the mountain, so he put the Buddha statue in the cave. At the end of GUI Dynasty, the Qing garrison officers and soldiers in Pingluo were hunting in Helan Mountain. They suddenly saw auspicious clouds and auspicious atmosphere, covered the peaks, and heard the clash of weapons and the noise of horses' hooves. They thought it strange, so they separately searched deep in the mountains. Finally, they found the statue of wuliangshou Buddha in the cave, and they carried it back. The heavier it was, the heavier it was, and when they reached heitadun, they couldn't carry it. At that time, a good hermit proposed that the land here was flat and broad, so a temple could be built here to house the statue of wuliangshou Buddha. But because there is no water, construction cannot be carried out. So they prayed silently and asked for the help of the Buddha. Pray for a moment, the soil is wet, dig down, underground immediately gush out a fountain, the spring water is clear and sweet. So people put up sheds here and broke the ground. The stone on the mountain is used to build the wall base, and the loess is used to tamp the wall to build Shoufu temple. Since then, Shoufu temple has been expanded many times. In 1863, Shoufu Temple suffered a big fire, and then it was rebuilt.
