"China Grottoes Nose Founders" Tiantishan Grottoes, one of the earliest grottoes opened in China, representative of early grottoes art, source of Yungang Grottoes and Longmen Grottoes, Chinese grottoes influence process: Tiantishan Grottoes - Yungang Grottoes ─ Longmen Grottoes ─ Dunhuang Grottoes. Its excavation has a demonstration and enlightenment effect on the excavation of grottoes in the surrounding or farther regions of the same period, forming the famous "Liangzhou model" in the history of Buddhist grottoes in China. People often determine the status of grotto art in Buddhist history and art history from the ages, which is certainly true, but more importantly, it depends on its influence in the grottoes. If only from the age point of view, many grottoes in Xinjiang are earlier than Dunhuang grottoes and Central Plains grottoes, but it has no direct impact or little impact on Central Plains grottoes. According to historical records, Mogao Grottoes were founded in the second year of the former Qin Jianyuan, that is, the ten years of the former Liangshengping (366), the title of No. 169 of the Qianlingsi Grottoes was in 420 AD, and the Tiantishan Grottoes were founded in 412 ～ 439. From the age, the Tiantishan Grottoes are a little later than the Mogao Grottoes, which is basically equivalent to the Qianlingsi Grottoes. But these two grottoes, especially Mogao Grottoes, have a very large impact. When you mention the grottoes, you must call Mogao Grottoes and Yungang and Longmen. But the Mogao Grottoes in the Northern Wei Dynasty were not famous, and did not directly affect Yungang and Longmen. On the contrary, Liangzhou monks and their Tiantishan Grottoes were famous, which had a certain impact on the development of Mogao Grottoes and Dunhuang Buddhism. Experts agree that although Mogao Grottoes were the earliest grotto art in mainland China, the time for the temple to be officially opened in the caves began in 420 years when the north cooled and the west cooled. The opening and opening period in the history of Mogao Grottoes was the time of the Northern Wei Xiaoming Emperor (516 ～ 528). At this time, with the entry of a group of officials, monks and craftsmen in Luoyang, the Central Plains Han style began to popular here. This has been the Tiantishan Grottoes 100 years after the excavation. From the above simple description, we can clearly see that the impact process of Chinese grottoes should be: Tiantishan grottoes - Yungang grottoes ─ Longmen grottoes ─ Dunhuang grottoes. This is not intended to demean Mogao Grottoes and improve Tianti Mountain, but from the impact and source relationship to explore a development vein of Chinese grottoes, with the facts to explain that the non-Tiantishan grottoes that really affect the style of the Central Plains grottoes are not. It is also the hometown of Chinese ginseng fruit. The Wanshou Mountain where ginseng fruit is grown in "Journey to the West" is actually Wuwei Tianti Mountain. Tianti Mountain is snowy all year round, commonly known as "Snow on the Heavenly Ladder", one of the eight scenic spots in Liangzhou. The big Buddha in the grotto sits on the mountain, the blue waves at the foot, thin clouds wrapped around its body, forming a spectacular spectacle of mountains, water, Buddha and clouds.
