Chongqing Tourism | The Lost Sky City and Buddhist Holy Land - Hechuan Fishing City

Hechuan Fishing City Ruins Fishing Mountain is named for a flat boulder on the top of the mountain. It is said that immortals used to fish here, hence the name Fishing Mountain. Historically, this ancient fortress surrounded by the Jialing River, Fu River, and Qu River was majestic and impregnable. On the ancient battlefield here, the unyielding people of Chuan and Yu and the fierce Mongolian soldiers staged a grand finale. Before I came, I did my homework. The stubborn Chuan and Yu Song soldiers and the Mongolian army fought a 36-year war of attack and defense, saving 100,000 people from disaster. Fishing City became the only city that the once invincible Mongolian cavalry failed to capture. The historical relics in the city are not limited to this. There are also two temples, one at the foot of the mountain and one at the foot of the mountain, namely 'Flying Temple' and 'National Protection Temple'. Among them, the National Protection Temple is one of the four temples in Hechuan. There is also a Tang Dynasty reclining Buddha suspended between the cliffs, which is very spectacular. The current Fishing City has become a great hiking spot, and the photos are quite good. The ancient city gate of the National Protection Gate built on the cliff is majestic. In addition, Song City and Fishing Platform are also must-visit places. In addition to understanding ancient history and culture, hiking is also great. It takes nearly 40 minutes to walk from the foot of the mountain along the stairs to the National Protection Gate. The air is dense with forests, it can be said to be a natural oxygen bar! 🚄Transportation tips: Depart from Chongqing North Station by high-speed train, and you can reach Hechuan Station in half an hour. 🚗After leaving the station, you can reach by taxi for 10 yuan, which is quite easy to reach. 🎫The entrance ticket to the mountain is 60 yuan.
