From the Shengshui Pavilion to Zhongfeng Temple, it only takes 20 minutes to walk. It is considered to be the two temples in the vicinity of Mount Emei. It is only the main entrance of Zhongfeng Temple that needs to go down a ladder, so there are not many people. Zhongfeng Temple is named because it lives in Baozhang Peak and echoes the Peak. To this place, it is the evening, the dusk fades, the temple only one old man guards the temple, in the forest bamboo and tall trees, is also very quiet. In the impression, Zhongfeng Temple is considered to be the most important temple in the low mountainous area of Mount Emei except Baoguo Temple and Fuhu Temple. I didn't expect it to be just a city insurance, but not as good as the Leiyin Temple, Chunyang Temple and Shengshui Pavilion. I think it may be related to the temple destroyed in the Qing Dynasty in the fire, and the main building is now mostly rebuilt by the Republic of China, only a pair of stone lions in front of the mountain gate, which are relics of the Song Dynasty. Entering the temple, it is also different from the impression, I do not know why I have a large-scale memory of this temple, but in fact, Zhongfeng Temple is only a courtyard layout, looks quiet and elegant, the central axis is symmetrical, and the inner and outer corridors are. The Puxian Temple and the Daxiong Palace are the beam-style beams, heavy dripping water, the mountain-style roof, and the small green tile roof. It is a typical Western Sichuan architectural style. Although Zhongfeng Temple looks more like Xi Jing's excellent place, it is the birthplace of Emei martial arts. Speaking of Emei martial arts, you may be the first to think of the extermination master, but she is actually just a fictional character of Mr. Jin Yong in "The Slaughter of the Dragon". The real Emei martial arts actually began in the spring and autumn period, Situ Xuankong, said that he imitated the movements of the apes in Mount Emei, founded the open arm fist, is regarded as the first person in Emei martial arts. During the Northern Dynasty and Eastern Wei Dynasty, "Zhennan General" Lin Shimao, because of persecution by the powerful, went out of the house on the way to escape, the law was indifferent. The Master of the Danran is the first martial monk to learn martial arts in Mount Emei. It is rumored that the Master of the Danran has learned kung fu at Shaolin Temple and is proficient in the foreign boxing. After entering the Zhongfeng Temple, the master of the Danran is studying the Emei boxing on the basis of the foreign boxing, and the internal work of the Shaolin martial arts is the same as the Emei martial arts. Combined. So he was regarded as one of the ancestors of Emei martial arts, and because of his pioneering and spreading, Zhongfeng Temple became the birthplace of Emei martial arts. But in the end, I still have to complain that although Zhongfeng Temple has such an important position in the history of Mount Emei, the display of Emei martial arts in the temple is too simple now. In the huge exhibition hall, there are only a few old photos. Tourists who don’t look at the text carefully, It may not be known that this temple has such an extraordinary history. 🏠 name | Zhongfeng Temple 🎫 tickets | Free ⛳ address | Emei Mountain, Leshan City, Sichuan Province #Where to go still #My hiking note #Private treasures around the city #Small places that locals don't know #Summer is coming
