Nanyue is surrounded by mountains, with a peak protruding. If you live in Qingtian, it is also called Tianzhu Mountain. Pi Rixiu, a poet in the late Tang Dynasty, wrote the famous "Southern Prison Fu" when he was roaming in western Anhui, saying that "the corner between the north and the earth, the sum of the potential and the sky", "there are water like veins, stones like bones, depressions like abdomen, and valleys like knots", and he made a detailed description of the landscapes and caves. Yuan Yue Temple, Wanjuan Hall and other ancient buildings on the top of the mountain. Wanjuantang; According to legend, it is the place where the elder brother of Shi Jiao, the champion of the Song Dynasty, studied before the middle school entrance examination. So far, the website still exists. Brick-wood small tile temple 16, rebuilt in 1937. The main hall is the "Little Nanyue" plaque inscribed by Mr. Gan Trust, a famous calligrapher of Kuomintang. There is a pool next to the feed, with a clear mouth, commonly known as "Nanyue Tianchi", which was once the first of the "Eight Scenes of Huoshan". According to legend, there is a spring eye under the pool, which is connected with the East China Sea. Yi Long lies in the pool but doesn't see it. There was an ancient poem saying, "The water meets the sky at the top of Nanyue Mountain, and the hibiscus is inserted upside down. I wonder if it can moisten the piedmont fields after being sealed by Hanwu. " There are two wind tunnels, large and small, on the cliff in the south of Shannan, which can help the stone climb up the hole. This big hole can accommodate thousands of people. The small hole is narrow outside and wide inside, like a curved room and a compound room, which can reach several weights through light.
Above the northwest of the cave, there are strange rocks such as flagpole clip, white tiger rock and test core rock. Among them, the core rock extends outward about three meters, facing the abyss, which is very steep. Legend has it that people with evil thoughts are afraid to get on board. There is a poem day: "The wind tunnel is low in the valley, the rock color of Cheng Xin is still fascinating, the pine green is buried in the Tang brown, and the weeds are lost." There is a cave in the valley in the north of the mountain, which is called "Stone Window Cave". According to legend, Zuo lived here in seclusion at the end of Han Dynasty. There is a deep pool next to the cave, called the Japanese dragon tree. An ancient poem says, "The theme of Guan Chan still exists near Yue, in front of Ling Bo, and there are strong ladders along the way. The dragon swims in the pool to go to Fang Jing, and the wind is high and the ancient cave fans are fascinated. Suddenly, I suspect that Zuo Fangyuan is still in the middle building. " It vividly depicts the natural scenery and human landscape of Nanyue. The eastern slope of this mountain has hundreds of steps leading to the top. I see mountains on the east, south and west, which are endless; Looking north, the clear water is like green, winding eastward; Huoshan ancient city and new city have a panoramic view. Immersed in the scene, listening to the mountain spring in winter and watching the scenery in the west are refreshing.
According to the earliest monograph "Er Ya Shi Shan", which explains the meaning of words in China, "Mountains and hills, Huo." "Huoshan is Nanyue." Surrounded by mountains, it means Huo. The interpretation of "Huoshan" in Historical Records of later generations mostly followed the interpretation of "Erya". Moreover, it is unanimously recognized as "Huoshan", except that there is a mountain near Huozhou, Shanxi Province called Huoshan, which is Huoshan in western Anhui. Most modern authoritative dictionaries also quoted the above two notes when explaining "Huoshan". So Nanyue is also called Huoshan. But now Huoshan no longer refers to Yueshan or other mountains, but to Huoshan County within the administrative area.
Gu Zuyu, a famous historical geographer in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, recorded Huoshan in Volume 26: "Huoshan, south of Wuli County, was originally named Tianzhu Mountain, also known as Nanyue Mountain, also known as Hengshan Mountain. Wendi divided Huainan into Hengshan country, hence the name. ..... "Heaven" Yellow Emperor sealed five mountains, Nanyue Hengshan was the farthest, and Qian Yue was the deputy. Shun made her maiden voyage to Nanyue, namely Huoshan Mountain. Hanwu Cobb regards Huoshan as Nanyue, so he worships his god. " Therefore, Nanyue is also called Hengshan Mountain. According to folklore, Nanyue Mountain looks like a "balance" from the county seat, which may have some truth.
