Things to do in Zhumadian

The scenery is truly beautiful, like a stone bonsai. The stones are very unique, and there are several lakes next to the rocky mountain. It's definitely worth a visit. Batu Caves is a real adventure and worth a challenge.

What happened to the mountain peak that fell? It didn't fall far, landing in Queshan County, a hundred miles to the south. The locals called the mountain that fell from the sky "Laoluoshan" (a mountain that fell from the sky, later used as a homophone for "Laoleshan").

The distinctive Buddha statues in temples typically refer to those with unique shapes, exquisite craftsmanship, historical and cultural value, or those that stand out in terms of religious significance; each temple has its own unique characteristics. Here, one can truly find inner peace!

Jinding Mountain is located in Zhumadian, with relatively convenient transportation. The mountain is more than 600 meters high and is divided into two mountains, Big Jinding and Small Jinding. There is no cable car to go up the mountain, and the whole climb down takes more than 3 hours. There is a slide down the mountain, and there are many people during the holidays.

*The Book of Songs, Minor Odes, Crane's Cry* The crane cries in the marsh, its voice heard in the fields. Fish hide in the deep, or lie on the shore. How delightful is that garden, where sandalwood trees grow, and beneath them grow leaves. Stones from other mountains can be used to polish jade. The crane cries in the marsh, its voice heard in the heavens. Fish lie on the shore, or hide in the deep. How delightful is that garden, where sandalwood trees grow, and beneath them grow grains. Stones from other mountains can be used to polish jade. I never imagined that "stones from other mountains can be used to polish jade" originated from here. This crane statue (with a tortoise or black tortoise under its feet? and a herb in its beak, I wonder if it's lingzhi) should be one of the treasures of the Zhumadian Museum. It's truly beautiful! The crane's feathers are so exquisite! And there are still remnants of painted decoration! There's also a Han Dynasty Boshan incense burner, mother-and-child bricks, and various bronze mirrors (the translucent mirror should demonstrate its light-transmitting effect!). There's a fish-shaped basin with cute patterns inside (I wonder if rubbing the edges will produce water droplets). The famous Yuan An Stele (of the Yuan family of Runan, four generations of high-ranking officials, the ancestor of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu). (Unfortunately, Yi Zhongtian's "The Starry Sky of the Three Kingdoms" is too unrestrained... otherwise, Yuan Shao in it would be quite handsome. Actually, a connection could be made, after all, it's Yuan Shao's hometown...) The character "巳" is very cute! There's also the epitaph of Fu Bi (Fu Han Gong), some characters really look like emojis! Besides the "Six Hundred Years of the State of Cai" special exhibition, the Zhumadian Museum's own collection of artifacts is also very interesting! Worth a visit! Upstairs, there's also a memorial exhibition for General Peng Xuefeng, with some photos and artifacts.

There are light shows and various entertainment activities at night, and you can take a walk around the beams and columns after dinner.

The national AAAA-level Tongshan and Tongshan Lake scenic area is known as the "Great Forest in Tianzhong, Beidaihe in the Central Plains", a leisure resort, and a landscape gallery. Located 30 kilometers east of Biyang County, it is an artificial reservoir built in the 1960s. It is a national key protected water conservancy project. After risk removal and reinforcement in 2008, the reservoir area has a brand new look. Tongshan Lake is located in Biyang County, Zhumadian City. There are Tongshan and Tongshan Lake scenic areas, Nangong Temple, and the Tongshan Lake monster, which is said to be a dragon. The beautiful and strange Tongshan Lake has aroused the imagination of many people.

Tomb of Li Si in Shangcai, Henan Province. Li Si studied under Xunzi, and after completing his studies, he entered Qin and assisted the King of Qin in unifying the six kingdoms. After Qin unified the world, he formulated a ritual system for Qin Shihuang and was appointed as prime minister. He was a famous politician, writer and calligrapher. He abolished the feudal system, implemented the county system, unified the writing system with Qin seal script, formulated laws, unified the wheel tracks, measurement system, and currency, and started the centralized system of China. After the death of Qin Shihuang, he conspired with Zhao Gao to forge a will and made his youngest son Hu Hai the second emperor. Later, he was envied by Zhao Gao and was beheaded in Xianyang in 208 BC, and his three clans were exterminated.

I've been there once and it's a very nice place with a beautiful environment, suitable for bringing babies! The room also has a bathroom, which is so beautiful. There is also a rocking chair at the door of the room. In the evening, I invited three or five friends to drink tea and watch the stars together. It is really beautiful. If I have the opportunity, I will definitely go again

There are many "Pangu Holy Lands" in China, but in Henan Province, only Pangu Mountain in Biyang County is called the "Central Plains Pangu Holy Land". This Pangu Mountain is not famous for its height, because the main peak of Pangu Mountain is only 459 meters above sea level, which is "small" among the mountains, but it has won the reputation of "Pangu Holy Land" among many famous mountains and peaks in the Central Plains, which is extraordinary. On the top of Pangu Mountain stands the Pangu Temple. Pangu Temple was built in the Five Dynasties. It is rumored that there was a divine light on Pangu Mountain in those days, and there were also mirages that were seen by villagers and officials. Every wonder disappeared in less than half a day. Among them, there are fairy towers and palaces, which are well-organized; unicorns, colorful phoenixes, blue phoenixes, cranes, white dragons, and dragons play in them; jade grass and jade trees can be seen everywhere; spiritual fruits and treasures are coveted. Immortals fly back and forth between the Yao Palace and Zique, and there are colorful palace maids and boys accompanying them. The air is filled with fairy spirit and is very free. Among them, there is a large hall with the most majestic momentum. There is a large jade plaque on the main entrance of the hall, with four large gold characters "Pangu Temple" written on it, which is magnificent and solemn. In the courtyard outside the hall, there is a jade sculpture over a hundred feet high. There is no flaw on the whole body. The whole body is translucent and shiny, and there is no trace of carving. It is simple and natural, and it is natural. This jade sculpture depicts a god. But this person has a thick beard and eyebrows, angry eyes, a square mouth and big ears, a bare upper body, muscular, and an oak leaf apron on the lower body, which is solemn. Holding a sharp axe, he waved the sky and rebuked the earth, and frightened the ghosts and gods. It is the great god Pangu who created the world.
