  Jinzhou

  "Not far from the city, it takes more than 10 minutes to drive. The car can drive into the scenic spot. It takes 20 yuan. It is very big. As a Jinzhou person, I have been to N times. Today, I have developed a place I have not been to. There is no cave, but it is not recommended to go up. The road is very steep and narrow. There is nothing on it, there is only a wooden pavilion, and the safety factor is very low. Beishan Putuo Mountain is worth a walk"

  Highlights: North Putuo Mountain has lush forests and beautiful scenery. Structures in the scenic area include the North Putuo Zen Buddhist Temple Lower Court, the Upper Court and Guanyin Cave. Some of the interesting landscapes that can be enjoyed at North Putuo Zen Buddhist Temple include the Yinniu (Drinking Cow) Spring and the Shouzi (Long Life) Rock. The main peak of Jiguan Mountain is more than three hundred meters above sea level. Up on top of the mountain, stands a statue of Laotse. In good weather, visitors can get a panoramic bird's-eye view of the entire scenic spot from here. Sometimes the urban districts of Jinzhou City can even be seen in the distance. Guanyin Cave is also a spot in the park that is not to be missed. It is a temple built into the cliff face. Inside the temple is a shrine to the Bodhisattva Guanyin. Close to Guanyin Cave is also the Yuelao Temple, along with ancient monuments such as a pagoda built by eminent monks of years past.

The service facilities need to be improved. It is currently continuing to be developed. Many workers in the yard are under construction. I believe it will get better and better in the future."

  "Of course it is worth a visit. This is the most worth a leisure and exercise place in Jinzhou City. I spend at least three times a week in spring, summer and autumn. Climbing the mountain, walking the plank road... and going to picnic on weekends, drinking tea, holding a book, and taking a mobile phone, you can stay here all day. Spring has wild flowers, summer has shade, autumn has fallen leaves, winter has snow, every season has the beauty of every season, don't say I didn't tell you oh!"

  " Cuiyan Mountain is located 17 kilometers northwest of Jinzhou City. At the end of the flat earth, a group of peaks rise up, the stone walls are like a knife, a sloping, steep and beautiful, like a large bonsai specially made by nature. The peaks are green and picturesque, worth watching."

  Highlights: Cuiyan Mountain, a national AAA-level scenic spot, was originally called Wuya Mountain. Because there are two small peaks on the mountain, which are located on both sides of the main peak, shaped like two Yaba, so the locals call it Yaba Stone Mountain. Cuiyan rocks are brown-green, and in summer and autumn, moss is dense, the peaks and peaks are green, and the scenery is picturesque. Because Cuiyan Mountain is empty, quiet and beautiful, it has always attracted the attention of people who cultivate and refine Qi, so it has become a good place for monks to build temples and devote themselves to cultivation. As early as the Han Dynasty, there were tenants who built temples at the eastern foot of the mountain. Later, they were repeatedly attacked by soldiers, and the temples were all destroyed. After renovations in the Tang and Song Dynasties, the incense in the temple continued year after year and gradually prospered. In the early years of Liao Daozong, there were years of wars, and there were no peaceful days. The temple fell into disrepair for many years and was in ruins. In the tenth year (1084) of Dakang, Daozong of Liao Dynasty, the old monk Zhixun from Daguangji Temple in Jinzhou rebuilt the temple at the foot of the mountain and named it Qingjing Temple, which was later Cuiyanshan Temple.
