After enjoying the flowers, you can make plans with friends to enjoy delicious food. If you like hot pot, you can try Zhao Meili Hot Pot hidden in a residential building, where the frog flavor is amazing. If you prefer something lighter, you can go to Jing Er Niang Tofu, where you can enjoy tender tofu with blanched pea tips, which is very tasty.
If you don't want a full meal, you can try Zhou Xiaobo Chongqing Noodles for a bowl of beef noodles, which is also quite comforting!
位于江北区观音桥西边的鸿恩寺森林公园,它处于城市的中心位置,面积1000余亩,去来都很方便。这里森林葱郁繁茂,景观层次分明空气自然清新。最高处的鸿恩阁海拔约468米,超过437.5米的南山一棵树和380米的峨岭两江亭。登上鸿恩阁,游人可尽览江北、渝北、沙平坝、九龙坡、渝中、南岸等地的城市风光与山水画卷。鸿恩寺森林公园以桂花高大茂盛,品种珍稀和种类繁多而闻名遐迩。登完台阶,第一景便是金桂溢香。宽敞的坝子立有一精致的石牌坊,名曰桂花榜。概述了桂花以金桂、银桂、丹桂、四季桂四大类为主,全园共有桂花60余个品种,种植桂花树10000余株,为全国桂花公园之最。今秋十月,金黄色、银白色、紫红色的桂花竞相开放,芳味馥郁,香飘十里。人们闭上双眼,将桂花的馨香吸入鼻腔,如痴如醉,仿佛进入了一个香气四溢的世外陶源。可惜这不是开花的季节,只能想想桂花盛开的情景。沿着鸿顶路经过鸿恩春晓,来到琴台结缘,愿单身的男女在这里结下一生的情缘。又到了清风幽篁,这里篁竹滴翠,雕塑栩栩如生,福娃带着福报来到幽静的小湖畔。相传明朝建文帝朱永炆在位期间,遭遇叔父朱棣篡权,被追杀到这座龙脊山。危急时刻,观音菩萨派了19只鸿雁搭救了他。后来,建文帝的追随者秘密来到山上,建起一座寺庙隐居于此。为报答鸿雁的救命之恩,就把寺庙取名鸿恩寺。岁月流逝,雁去楼空,云雾缭绕;只留下了建文帝骑雁掠堡,盘旋留影的美妙传说。鸿雁留影之下则是翠涌云崖,500余步的阶梯,直通大石坝的街道。那条步道则是健身爱好者的乐土。红顶路两旁,桂花树、黄桷树、银杏树、蔷薇树、香樟树次第相迎,各种鲜花分布其间,是一道亮丽的风景线。红顶路的尽头是全园最高的鸿恩阁。首先映入眼帘的是精心打造的云蒸霞蔚牌坊,穿过牌坊,沿着台阶上去就是美轮美奂的鸿恩阁。相传在清乾隆年间,重庆一天遭遇三次地震引发山火,鸿恩寺被大火烧毁殆尽。镇寺之宝法华经和铜钟被转运到对面大龙山的双龙寺。道光年间嘉陵江突发洪水,士绅任正玉临江邸宅将要被淹,妻子吴氏也即将临产。情急之中许诺菩萨保佑房屋及母子平安就重修鸿恩寺。不久洪水竟然退去,妻子也顺利产子。为还愿他拿出家中大部分财产,又组织民间集资筹粮,大兴土木,重修鸿恩寺。修好后和双龙寺经过友好协商,接回铜钟,法华经则留在双龙寺。两寺共沐观音菩萨的护佑,鸿恩香火得以延续。
A beautiful park. Easy to spend hours enjoying nature. The smell of the flowers was wonderful. Unfortunately it was over 40C and no water was available to buy. Would love to go back when the weather is cooler.
Beautiful park at the top of the city. it’s well maintained; lovely place for a walk and views of the city below. very hot today and very few people. plenty of restrooms but nowhere to buy drinks so take water with you!
