On May 29, 2014, at 3 p.m., a fire broke out in Xianguding Scenic Area, Weihai City, located at the eastern end of Jiaodong Peninsula. The fire was extinguished on June 1, and the main scenic spot of Xianguding was unaffected. Tourists can still be visited.

Fairy Tales

According to the local elderly, Xiangu used to live on a hill in Lincun, Fengnan. She moved to the top of Weifeng Mountain in order to avoid the naughty children playing noisily there. At that time, beneath the mountain, there lived a large family named Mengbohai. One night, when the family got up at night, they saw the chrysanthemum mules in the barn sweating heavily, and the saddles were ready. They were surprised. They called the Mengbohai Sea to look at them. Sure enough, they saw the chrysanthemum mules panting, just like pulling a truck back with a load. Amazingly, he suddenly remembered that he had dreamed of a fairy lady in plain clothes, with her hair tied up in buns, and a charitable treasure-face, who floated into the house and saluted her, saying that she would move by borrowing a chrysanthemum mule. Mengbohai is a kind and charitable person. Moreover, when she is single and weak, she generously promises and prepares saddles for chrysanthemum mules. With the sound of chrysanthemum mule, Xiangu disappeared. Is this dream true? He was puzzled. Suddenly, there are four ingots in the basket. Fang Juexian's move is really true. The next morning, a new winding mountain road (spread by Xiangu's poker stick) reached the summit of Weifeng Mountain. So, Meng Bohai told his neighbors about the move of the fairy aunt, which soon spread throughout Nanzhuang and Beidou. Under his advocacy, neighbors donated money to build a temple at the top of the peak, called Xiangu Temple. Also according to the appearance of the fairy aunt in the dream, the golden body was shaped and worshipped piously. I prayed that the fairy aunt would bless the wind and rain, and the eight sides would be safe. Since then, there has been an endless stream of people who wish for disaster relief and pray for their sons. The incense has been in full swing and has never faded in the past dynasties. It has been nearly a thousand years since Xiangu moved to Xianding in Shengshan Mountain. However, there is no record of Xiangu's fairy tale. There are different opinions about the surname of Xiangu, such as Guo, Tian, Yue and Meng. It can also be seen that the fairy aunt is from the folk, the embodiment of justice, fraternity, truth, goodness and beauty. The folk regard her as a god of protection, reflecting people's desire for a stable and happy life.

According to Taiping Qinghua, the fairy aunt surnamed Li, Qiongxian, a native of southern Guangdong, drifted away from her childhood, followed my brother Wang to Laoshan to learn Taoism, and moved to Guyu Mountain in southeastern Mouzhou, where she was named a real person (also known as Xiangu). The southeast of Mouzhou mentioned here coincides with Xianguding Ding in Southeast Mouping today.

According to folklore, the fifteenth day of the third month of the lunar calendar is the birthday of Xiangu. Every year from this day, Wangdao Village under Xiangu's top holds a grand mountain meeting on the seventh day to mark the anniversary, which has been handed down to the present day.
