The twelfth part of Rural Revitalization: such a fairyland with a unique cave
2022-08-24
(our reporter / Chen Xinyan) it is said that a long time ago, the Jade Emperor had nine dragons, all of whom possessed unique skills. One day, Jiuzi saw a beautiful scenery in the sky, surrounded by mountains and flowing green water. It was no less beautiful than yaochi fairyland. This was Yingxi peak forest. The rise of Jiulong and its descent to the earth, and the use of the dragon body and the dragon body against the mountain, painted the magnificent scenery of "Jiulong facing the sky", which is the reason why the Yingxi peak forest faces the East. At the same time, this place was ravaged by plague. Jiulong sympathized with the sufferings of the people, lowered the sacred water, and turned it into the quiet lake water of today's "cave fairyland". It also drilled through the sky with the dragon's body, creating the beautiful scenery of the world. The people suffering from plague drank the sacred water of the cave fairyland and rested in the cave for half a day. The disease was cured. (overlooking Dongtian fairyland from a high altitude) the local people are grateful for the kindness and virtue of Kowloon. In order to commemorate them, they renamed the place "Kowloon" and named the blessed place of Dongtian, which is used to cure the sick and save the people, as "Dongtian fairyland". Beautiful places are always accompanied by beautiful legends. This cave fairyland is located in Jiulong Town, Yingde, Guangdong. Now it has become a national AAAA scenic spot and is known as "the first Tiankeng in South China". Relying on its unique karst landform and precipitous gullies, Dongtian fairyland integrates mountains, waters, rocks, ponds, stalactites, waterfalls, overpasses, tiankengs and oases. Boating in Tiankeng, there are many stalagmites on both sides, and the stalagmites are picturesque and beautiful. There are more than 100 landscapes along the river, each with its own characteristics. It is an original ecological comprehensive tourist scenic spot integrating Tiankeng wonders, glass observation platforms, glass slides, leisure and entertainment, special food and field expansion. Dongtian fairyland is also known as chuantian rock. Its "Tiankeng" is a geological landscape unique to karst landforms in the world - karst caves. It was formed more than 200 million years ago and looks like a huge funnel skylight. For hundreds of millions of years, the underground river has been continuously flowing to create caves. Under the rain deposition and surface water erosion, the limestone mountain has gradually expanded from small cracks to deep karst caves, and collapsed after years of underground river erosion. During the geological evolution, the top of the karst cave collapsed and exposed the ground for many times, thus forming a sinkhole. "The first Tiankeng in South China" is 231 meters deep and still maintains a relatively independent ecosystem. The sun shines from the mouth of the pit into the bottom of the Tiankeng, and the mountain spring water falls from the sky and the cliff, and merges into a stream, gurgling and flowing. The climate in the Tiankeng is humid, with sufficient negative ions, fragrant flowers and plants, and hundreds of plants such as vines, mosses, palm trees and ferns grow alternately. (Dongtian fairyland "the first Tiankeng in South China") on the cliff, you can walk through the Dongtian fairyland on the "hanging wooden plank road through the sky". You can look up at the cliff and see the sky. Your vision changes with the mountain, giving you a sense of ups and downs; The bottom is a deep blue pool. The water is clear and the bottom is clear, and the flow is dark. There is a strong tendency that the mountain rain is coming. If you take a boat to shuttle between the cliffs of fairyland and ripple along with the trickle of streams, there are many beautiful peaks, and the green mountains are stacked, meandering and stretching into the distant sky, sometimes winding and quiet, sometimes suddenly open. Many rare tree species grow all year round on "wanlvfu island". In the romantic season of spring flowers, strange flowers and grasses all over the mountain accompanied by the rising morning mist, and the wisps of sunshine hit the island. It looks like a dream
