Must-see attractions
1️⃣Sea-watching Guanyin, Lotus Zen Temple
The 40-meter-high Guanyin statue sits facing south, with the South Sea in front of her, hence the name 'Sea-watching Guanyin'. Over the years, it has been protecting and deterring waves for Guangzhou and even the Greater Bay Area! Next to the Guanyin statue is a three-story high Guanyin Zen Temple, which houses many statues. You can also climb up to enjoy the beautiful scenery!
2️⃣The ancient quarry, as spectacular as Zhangjiajie
This quarry has been in use since the Qin and Han dynasties, with at least 2,000 years of history. Because of its unique stone quality suitable for construction, it has been quarried here over the years. At the same time, the red sandstone landscape is rare in Lingnan. After being collected, it forms large blocks of cut stone walls. The giant stone walls also have many famous poems and ancient sentences. The scene is spectacular. Looking down from a high place, it's like a scene from Zhangjiajie.
3️⃣The beautiful and picturesque Lotus Fairyland
Walking past the quarry, you will come across a lotus pond. Here, hundreds of varieties of lotus are planted. Some lotus flowers are still blooming. Against the green water, it is really beautiful. It's amazing how beautiful Guangzhou's winter is!
4️⃣Lotus City
Built in the third year of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, it is a product of the 'sea ban' during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It looks like a Great Wall, with city walls 10 meters high. Standing on the city wall, you can overlook the entire port. Lotus City and the Guanyin statue echo each other, forming a beautiful landscape of Lotus Hill!
5️⃣The Great Buddha's Hall
The majestic Great Buddha's Hall houses many statues. Here you can burn incense and pray for blessings. The temple can offer incense, the cost is optional, and you can also overlook the scenery. The geographical location here is excellent, not far from the Pearl River, with beautiful scenery!
Not bad, I went to visit the sea on the fifth day of the year, and then went to the resort's Yujing Pavilion to eat fast food, great. From Wanghai Guanyin down to Lion Rock, there are relatively few people here, the scenery is unique, and then from another road up, you can see the Flying Eagle Tunnel and Flying Eagle Cliff, and you can see the Lotus City when you go up, and then return to the Lotus Tower. Worship God and see the scenery, but also achieve sports, perfect day.
The Lotus Mountain in Panyu consists of 48 red sandstone low mountains, which belongs to Danxia landform. Therefore, the stone of the mountain can be used as a grinding stone, so it has been mined as a stone mine since the Ming Dynasty, and now surrounded by ancient trees in the mountains and rivers is a blessing for Naxiang.
Located on the banks of the Lion River in Panyu District, Guangzhou, Louhua Mountain consists of 48 red sandstone low mountains, which belongs to the geographical structure of Danxia landform. The red sandstone rock of Louhua Mountain is of high quality, high density and fine sand. The ancients used it as a grinding stone, so Louhua Mountain is also called "Shiqiang". These red sandstones are also good materials for wall foundation. According to experts, eight of the 12 stone materials built in the tomb of the Nanyue King more than 2100 years ago were collected from Lianhua Mountain. The stones mined here were transported from waterways to Xianggang Mountain in Guangzhou.
Guangzhou Lianhua Mountain is a beautiful and mysterious place, which makes people sigh the magic of nature. Here are some posterior feelings: ● Natural scenery: the scenic area is full of cliffs, the stone forest is towering, and the smooth cut surface is like artificial carving. Walking at the bottom of the stone forest and looking up, the cliffs on all sides face off, the broad sky is shrinking into a patio, and the surrounding boulders are crumbling, which is amazing. In addition, there is a beautiful lotus pond in the scenic area, where the lotus flowers are in full bloom and beautiful. ● Human history: The origin of Lotus Mountain is also quite mythical. It is rumored that a long time ago, the Bodhisattva of Guanshiyin in the South China Sea threw the lotus flowers into the river to suppress the dragon. This lotus flower has since become a boulder, becoming the lotus stone of the southern Tianmen of Lotus Mountain. In general, Guangzhou Lianhua Mountain is a worth visiting attraction, not only can enjoy the beautiful natural scenery, but also feel its deep historical and cultural heritage.
