#Shibao Mountain plant grass of China's eight grottoes Jianchuan Grottoes#Shibao Mountain is located in Jianchuan County, northern Dali, because of the unique landform, there are many strange peaks and stones, named "Shibao". On the mountain, there are relics such as Baoxiang Temple, Jinding Temple, Haiyunju, and one of the eight precious Chinese grottoes-Jianchuan Grottoes, which are exquisitely made and have southwest characteristics, which are worth seeing. Shizhong Temple, Jianchuan Grottoes Stone Zhong Temple area is not large, because there is a huge cauliflower-shaped red sandstone in the courtyard like an upside down clock, the most famous place is the temple mountain is Jianchuan Grottoes. Jianchuan Grottoes, also known as Shizhongshan Grottoes and Shibaoshan Grottoes, are the existing scale in Yunnan, the Bai people created during the Nanxun period, known as the gems of the South China, its carving style and Dunhuang, Longmen Grottoes have the same work. The well-preserved grotto group has 16 caves, of which the manna Guanyin statue of the 7th cave has the reputation of "Oriental Venus"; and the "Ayangbai" grotto, which resembles female genitalia, is amazing. As for why reproductive worship is sacrificed with Buddhist statues, it is still a mystery. Baoxiang Temple and Jinding Temple were built in the Yuan Dynasty. It is located on a towering and steep stone cliff. It is built on the mountain. The lower floor is the temple. The second floor is the temple view. It is called the "Yunnan Suspension Temple". From Baoxiang Temple, continue to walk up the mountain, about half an hour to the slightly defeated Jinding Temple. The murals in the temple of Haiyunju, the clean Buddhist temple, are worth stopping.: 45 yuan: 40 yuan for a shuttle bus, one-way, 20 yuan a way. : It is recommended to travel for a day: At present, there is no bus directly to Shibao Mountain in Shaxi Ancient Town. If you want to go to Shibao Mountain, you can only charter a car or take the shuttle bus from Shaxi to Jianchuan. Get off the bus halfway, but walk from the place where you get off to the main entrance for about 2 kilometers, private 200 yuan / day, non-holidays can be slightly reduced. Electric car costs 40-80 yuan/day, the disadvantage is that you have to find a place to charge if you are not too far away. Leisure route arrangement: Main gate Shizhong Temple ‍ Grottoes ‍ Parking lot Shilong Village Village Exit ‍ Reservoir ‍ Shilong Village Exit Baoxiang Temple ‍ Jinding Temple Haiyunju ‍ Main Gate. Tips: Lion Guan can see more than walking, if you don't have to walk back to Shaxi, you can ignore it. From Lion Guan, you can walk back to Shaxi Ancient Town. The road is still a bit far away. It is recommended to go out of the main entrance and take a car back. Tips: If you are hiking ‍ and don't go back, the itinerary should be changed to "Main Gate-Haiyunju-Baoxiang Temple-Jinding Temple-Shilongcun Reservoir-Shizhongsi Grottoes Group-Shadeng-Grottoes-Shaxi". If you don't want to abuse yourself or go to Shaxi on foot, it is recommended not to take this route. Tips: The reservoir outside Shilong Village has a beautiful scenery and the fish in the reservoir tastes good. You can arrange lunch at the restaurant next to the reservoir at noon and then visit Baoxiang Temple. Note: There are more monkeys outside Baoxiang Temple, do not feed the monkey brother at will, it will rush up to grab food and claws feeder if it is not careful, so it is recommended to bring a small bamboo before the temple, in front of the temple can be borrowed for free, can be used as trekking poles and drive.

    In the past two years, with the hot broadcast of TV dramas, Shaxi has become a popular ancient town. Come to Shaxi to drink a cup of coffee, take beautiful photos, and walk on a country road on a bicycle. It has become a must-check way for many literary and artistic youth, but I have to say that, Many people miss a treasure place in the Chinese grottoes, the Shizhongsi grottoes located above Shibao Mountain. The Shizhongsi grottoes are located in the middle of Shibao Mountain, and you can enter the attraction from the front door and the back door. Most friends will take the Jingjiao bus directly from the east gate to visit Baoxiang Temple and then come here. If you are a poor travel enthusiast, you may as well come from the west gate of the scenic spot, which is Shaxi Ancient Town, passing through Shadeng Grottoes. Why do you recommend everyone to come here to see, because this is the first batch of cultural relics protection units in China, with the unique grotto culture of Dali, and there is not so dense traffic. We can walk all the way from the Lionguan Grottoes area and then walk to the Shizhong Temple Grottoes area. Although there are trails up and down the mountain, the stones on both sides are unique. The scenic spot is still very user-friendly. Although some grottoes are not open to see, he also provided us with exquisite pictures that can be appreciated.

    [View] Shizhong Temple is not clear whether it is being renovated or whether it is open in itself, and there is a parking lot next to it. Shizhong Temple is divided into parts and did not understand what the pattern is. There are still a lot of people, and it is also a transit station.

    Follow the crowd and road signs to Shizhongshan Grottoes. First, go down the mountain, it is a first-level repaired step, not too steep, not too much physical strength.
