Sun moon rock

Sun moon rock

The sun moon rock is on the ladder to heaven. The ladder turns to the north as far as possible. A rock stands like a mausoleum. There is no support around it. It is shaped like a chopping block. It has the potential to collapse at a touch. Because there are two round stone patterns on the rock, which are similar to the sun and the moon, it gets its name. There are many records in historical books and travel notes of celebrities. Ming Wu Tongchun "Taihua double journey" Zhongcheng: "rock has the shape of sun and moon, red and white like." Wang Lu's record of first entering Huashan and reaching Xifeng is more auspicious: when he ascended the ladder, he saw a block of stone, which was not very tall, like a barrier, with cracks in its shape. There is no vegetation on the stone. It is black and yellow, and the prominent one is red and white. The servant said that the stone is called sun moon rock.

Introduction to scenic spots

Huashan Mountain is famous for its stones. Every strange stone has a beautiful and moving legend. After crossing the Chaer cliff, you can see the two stones called "sun moon rock". The one on the left represents "sun" and the one on the right represents "Moon". The four words above are "cloud sky arc". Sometimes at night, a very dazzling light will appear here. It is said that when Wu Zetian went to Huashan Mountain and saw these two stones that looked like the sun and the moon, she created the word "Lu" for her own name, because these two strange stones, with the top of the blue sky and the bottom of the empty valley, are self-respect and symbols of light and authority.

Visitors suddenly feel like they are beyond the dust and refined.
