According to the Records of the Unification of the Qing Dynasty, Li Fang, a famous Prime Minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, founded Zhongxi Academy and Fenglong Academy in Fenglong Mountain, where he accepted apprentices and gave lectures, setting the precedent for academy education in Hebei. Fenglong Academy is located at the foot of Yangshan Mountain in Fenglong Mountain. It was originally the place where Li Gong taught in the Han Dynasty, and was established as an academy by Li Fang in the Five Dynasties. There are original lecture halls, reading caves, etc. There are two clear springs in the courtyard. One is Mengquan. The water is clear and sweet. It is the source of water for the academy. One is the ink pool, also known as the pen-washing pool. The water in the pool is black and it is said to be the place where ancient people washed their pens. Ten years ago, a group of cyclists rode up the mountain. The gravel road was very steep and they returned before reaching the top of the mountain.

On June 19, 2021, Panlong Lake, formerly known as the "Bayi" Reservoir, is located in the western mountainous area of ??Yuanshi County, only 25 kilometers northeast of Shijiazhuang. In order to commemorate the 501st Unit of the Railway Corps of the Chinese People's Liberation Army who assisted in the construction of the reservoir, it was specially named "August 1" Reservoir. At the end of the 19th century, a pomegranate tree in front of Panlong Temple was planted when the temple was built. It is the oldest historical witness in the temple. Its thick trunk, tall tree body and fluffy crown all show its antiquity and longevity. This ancient tree, which had gone through hundreds of years of vicissitudes, finally gave out and withered and died. But after a spring rain in 1995, the tree miraculously sprouted new buds and was filled with pomegranates. After that, the news spread like wildfire, and people all over the country recognized the appearance of Panlong God, and came here to worship one after another. From then on, the "August 1st" reservoir was changed into "Panlong Lake".

?On July 11, 2021, Tanpu Gorge in Gaojiadigou Village, Xiazhuang Township, Fuping County, Baoding City, is located in a deep mountain with a developed water system. Due to the narrow road, it is difficult for large vehicles to enter the village, and there are few tourists. It is a classic hiking spot for outdoor groups.

The old houses in the village have been in disrepair for a long time, and the stone troughs have stood silently for years. A wooden ladder hanging behind the wall expresses the vision of the former mountain people. When the wooden ladder was hung up, you may not have thought that it would become an eternal memory. When the big modern hospital in the city bids farewell to this world, I wonder if I can still think of this wooden ladder. Time flies by like a white horse, and life is fleeting. Only by cherishing this short beautiful time and indulging in the mountains and rivers after work can we be worthy of this journey of life in the prosperous China.
