Taishan Longquan Temple is definitely worth a visit! Mayor Geng Yubo's big brush, the ceiling of the domestic imitation Tang building, this should be one of the few (maybe the only) imitation Tang building complexes in the country with painted paintings
MoreTaishan Temple is also known as Taishan Longquan Temple. According to legend, there was a mountain dweller named Shi Gan Dang in the Northern Han Dynasty who was famous for his bravery. The mountain where he lived also became famous. The name of the temple is taken from the homonym of "Taishan Shi Gan Dang".
It is recorded that Longquan Temple was originally a Taoist temple of Haotian. It was built in the first year of Tang Jingyun (710) and destroyed in the war between Jin and Yuan Dynasties. It was rebuilt in the 24th year of Ming Hongwu (1391) and converted into a Buddhist temple. Five nearby temples, including Guanyin Temple and Tongzi Temple, were also incorporated. Taishan Longquan Temple faces south and is built in accordance with the terrain. The halls, pavilions and terraces are built in layers with different heights. Outside the mountain gate is a large flat land, and the cave-style music tower base still exists. The mountain gate is a hanging mountain top, with the inscription "Mountain Forest Ancient Temple". The Taoist "Eight Diagrams" are still preserved on the rafters under the eaves.
The bell and drum towers on the left and right wings of the temple are brick and wood structures. The iron bell on the bell tower was recast in the tenth year of Emperor Qianlong's reign (1745) in the Qing Dynasty and is still intact. The Main Hall is five bays wide and two bays deep, with a total of two floors. The bottom floor is a brick cave, dedicated to Guanyin Bodhisattva; the upper floor is a brick and wood structure hall, originally dedicated to Buddha Sakyamuni. There are three octagonal buildings with pointed roofs in the backyard of Longquan Temple, namely the Guanyin Hall, the Manjusri Hall, and the Samantabhadra Hall.

The historical background of Longquan Temple is very fascinating, the meal is full, the taste is quite light, and the price is good. The mountaineering route is a bit challenging but the rhythm is very slow. Holiday parking is a problem, and other performances are very good.
So far, I have been to Taiyuan Scenic Area. This is the most complete supporting facilities. There are rest stations and toilets in every attraction. The trees are lush and the air is fresh, especially the panoramic view of Taiyuan after climbing to the top is refreshing.
Taiyuan, southwest of Taishan, is 5 kilometers away from Jinci Scenic Area and 3 kilometers away from Jinyang Xishan Giant Buddha Scenic Area. It is a tourist spot for tourism and Sunday leisure in Taiyuan City. It is unique and has extraordinary scenery, especially known for the red leaves of late autumn. Jinyuan Town, the west of the rocky beach, there is a long and deep mountain ditch, called wind gully, from the wind gully into the two mountains, there are river beaches, follow the beach about two Huali, until the foot of Taishan Mountain. Looking up, the mountains are sudden, the mountains are everywhere, the green is dripping, the streams are flowing, the ding-dong is squeaking, the environment is elegant, and the scenery is beautiful. As a tourist point, it is well-deserved.
