Xiqiao Mountain is thick with moss, lush, with cracks in the cave wall and rich water storage. The ancients praised it as "Who believed in Kuanglu Zhang Qian Waterfall and moved to Xiqiao". Today people call it "green reservoir" and "solid reservoir". It is precisely because Xiqiao Mountain has such high-grade natural tourism resources that the State Council and the Ministry of Forestry awarded it two laurels, namely "National Scenic Area" and "National Forest Park", and passed the evaluation of national AAAAA-level tourist area. Xiqiao Mountain is known as "the beacon of Pearl River civilization". As early as more than 6,000 years ago, the industrious and intelligent people of Xiqiao Mountain created a splendid "double-shouldered stone tool" culture on this land. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, a large number of literati, represented by Zhan Ruoshui, He Baiyun and Kang Youwei, lived in seclusion in Xiqiao, exploring Neo-Confucianism and tempering their minds, which made Xiqiao Mountain known as the "Famous Mountain of Neo-Confucianism in South Guangdong" and made Xiqiao's "Neo-Confucianism Culture" famous. Xiqiao Mountain has distinctive religious and cultural characteristics. It not only integrates Buddhism, Confucianism and Taoism, but also has the South China Sea Guanyin culture with China characteristics. The world's first Guanyin statue, which stands on the eight peaks of Xiqiao Mountain, has become the only place for people to study Guanyin culture. Xiqiao Mountain is a national forest park, and its green culture is particularly prominent. Xiqiao Mountain is known as the "front garden" of the whole Pearl River Delta because of its beautiful ecological environment and superior geographical location, and has become a blessed place for Nanyue people who are gradually moving towards "urbanization" in the process of reform, opening up and economic development to stay away from the hubbub and return to nature. Here, visitors can enjoy the green of Xiqiao, absorb the aura of mountains and rivers at will, cultivate themselves in leisure and vacation, and become a beautiful landscape of Xiqiao's "green culture".
Xiqiao Mountain has pure folk customs and quaint charm. The wedding customs and production and labor customs of villagers in the mountains have aroused great interest of tourists, especially the folk entertainment activities such as "Dragon Boat Rowing in Mid-Levels", "Dragon Boat Rowing in Bao Er" and "Chinese New Year Lion Art", which are unprecedented, and tourists will not be happy without a glance. Xiqiao Mountain has a good reputation. Since ancient times, there has been a popular saying that there are two famous mountains in South Guangdong. Xiqiao and Dongqiao (Luofu Mountain) are listed as representatives of famous mountains in South Guangdong, and some scholars have written poems and articles, giving Xiqiao Mountain a high evaluation. Zhao Puchu has a kind word of "ancient firecrackers dazzle the sky, and the world is a modern home in Taoyuan", Qin Mugong has a praise of "Xiqiao is more beautiful than poetry", Huang Shimin has a chant of "Xiqiao is more beautiful than Dongqiao, and the beauty is in the south", and some scholars and experts praise it as "not going to Xiqiao Mountain is not Lingnan". Today, Xiqiao Mountain, a green gem in the new century, is showing more and more dazzling brilliance.
