However, the forestry department in front of the scenic spot is mainly managed, and forestry economic activities The basic reception facilities such as water, electricity, sanitation and shopping are poor and are not commensurate with the high-grade resources, which affects the comprehensive benefits of tourism. Currently, there are only about 70,000 tourists. In the future, we need to straighten out the system and strengthen unified leadership in the construction of scenic spots. We will vigorously publicize to the outside world, accelerate the implementation of project construction, maintain ecological balance, and build Shimen Cave into a famous scenic tourist area in southern Zhejiang. Jiuwan Fairy Gorge Scenic Area Jiuwan Fairy Gorge was rated as a national A-level tourist area and county-level scenic spot in 1999. It is about 45 kilometers away from the county seat. Jiuwan Fairy Gorge is a typical water erosion canyon. In the shape of a "V", the canyon scenic spot is 8 kilometers long and has a total area of ??about 5.3 square kilometers. The canyon is mainly famous for its rocks, caves, pools, waterfalls and walls. There are more than a hundred natural pools in the scenic area, including 4-5 meters deep, 3 over 2,000 square meters, and countless 1-3 meters deep, with an area of ??over 30 square meters. They have "natural swimming pools", " "Natural riverbed" and so on. The strange rocks around the pool come in various shapes, such as crocodile rocks, stone benches, stone houses, etc. Among them, the most peculiar landscapes are "Wind Moving Stone", Tianmen Gorge and natural river bed. The wind-driven stone is located at the highest point of the mountain. The stone is about 2 meters high, oval-shaped, and weighs about 5 tons. It can be shaken by hand, but it will never fall. Tianmen Gorge is about 7 meters high and 50 centimeters wide. Enter along the stone monument. The turning point is about 30 centimeters wide. Going forward, you will find a natural cave that can accommodate more than 10 people. There is also a "three pillars" landscape composed of three stones.

The height difference between the upper and lower rock walls is about 1.5 meters. The upper rock wall covers an area of ??about 1,000 square meters. The middle is slightly concave with accumulated water. The deepest part is about 0.5 meters, like a natural plate. The water flows down along the rock wall, like a natural slide. The rock wall is about 1.5 meters high, 1 meter wide, with a slope of about 45 degrees, and the rock wall is smooth. The lower rock wall covers an area of ??about 2,000 square meters, with a slight concave in the middle. The deepest point is about 1 meter, and there is water in the middle. The water quality of the stream in the canyon is clear and reaches the national first-class drinking water standard.
Jiuwanxian Gorge is a northwest-southeast trending rock fracture. It was formed during the Mesozoic crustal uplift process due to the erosion and downcutting of Zhangcunyuan, a tributary of Zhenwang Port. In addition, the degree of surface uplift and lithology changes. Differences, there are large differences within the canyon. The hard rhyolite in the canyon has been severely eroded and worn by flowing water, and its surface has become extremely smooth. Because the outlet river channel is narrow and the slope is large, the scouring force and transporting force of the flowing water have increased, exposing the river bedrock and fine pebbles. Sand forms deposits, and large rocks accumulate to form geological landscapes such as water slides and natural river beds. Scenic wonders such as bedrock walls and various large pictographic stones are formed by rock collapse, such as Fengdong Rock, Tianmen Gorge and other landscapes. . The scenic area is surrounded by cliffs and beautiful scenery. The forest coverage rate is more than 95%. The vegetation is mainly subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forest, mixed coniferous and broad-leaved forest, and bamboo forest. There are many flowers and weeds on the mountain, and colorful stones are scattered all over the lower reaches of the river, with red, yellow, blue and white colors.

People say: "There is a rock in the temple, and there is a Buddha in the rock. The temple is built on the rock, and the rock is the spirit of the Buddha." Jiumenzhai has been elevated by successive crustal movements, and due to mountain fractures and cutting by flowing water, it has formed a landform with steep mountains, deep valleys, and continuous mountains. The strata are dominated by Mesozoic volcanic sedimentary rocks, which belong to the rhyolitic ignimbrite of the Jurassic Tangshishan Group. Some of the peaks here are majestic and continuous, some are straight and steep, some are gentle and round, some are like majestic lions, and some are like eagles with spread wings. Based on the shape of the mountains, local people have passed down legends such as elephant turtles kissing, dinosaurs asking for help, and so on. Beautiful stories such as Penglai Bonsai. Local people have a legend: In ancient times, swans were ordered by the Queen Mother to descend to the earth in search of beautiful scenery.

In order to punish her, the Queen Mother set up nine Dharma gates here. Later, I don’t know who built a stronghold here in which dynasty. It is said that in ancient times, a merchant stayed at "Guanyin Rock Mountain" and dreamed that Guanyin appeared. There was a portrait of Guanyin on the rock wall. The merchants were overjoyed and worshiped and prayed. A few years later, a temple was built on the rock of Yushan Island, named "Stone Buddha Altar", and the incense became more and more popular. It is also said that there are flashes of Buddha's light in front of the temple altar, which remains a mystery through the ages. Hence the creation of Jiumen Village, a paradise on earth. Taihe Mountain Taihe Mountain, formerly known as "Qingtian Mountain", is located in the north of the county. It is an urban park for people in Qingtian County. It is named after the numerous white cranes that inhabited it in ancient times. It is a typical low-hill landform. Taihe Mountain is characterized by ancient pines and strange rocks. It has been listed as a Lishui Municipal Scenic Area and a national AA-level tourist area. The main peak of Taihe Mountain is 144.1 meters above sea level. The hillside is covered with rock outcrops, many ancient pines and strange rocks, and the vegetation coverage rate is above 85%. Ancient pines and strange stones, cliff inscriptions, and ancient temples and pavilions are the characteristics of Taihe Mountain.
Most of the ancient pines in Taihe are thin-skinned and high-yielding masson pine of the genus Pinaceae. The rocks in Taihe Mountain are unique, including Hunyuan Peak, Gongji Rock, Xiaoshun Rock and other pictographic rocks. Among them, Hunyuan Peak is located on the top of Taihe Mountain, and the main rock mass is relatively exposed. , shaped like a square seal and cut in the shape of a "cross", is a boulder in the jointed geological structure. Ancient tourists once visited Taihe Mountain and found ancient pines and rocks accompanying each other. The inscriptions such as "Fusong Stone" and "Stone Fusong" are true portrayals of the ancient pines and strange rocks here. There are more than 50 inscriptions on the cliffs of Taihe Mountain. There are three types of inscriptions, poems and images. They are all in regular, running, cursive, seal, regular script and other calligraphy styles. There are "Hunyuan Peak", "Sword Testing Stone", "Changsong Jieshi" and modern Chen Muhua's "Songs and Cranes in the Rain", Sha Menghai's "Taihe Scenic Spots", Zhang Aiping's "Mountains and Rivers Pregnant Show", Su Yu's " "Decorating Guanshan", Ai Qing's "Yinyue Pool" and other inscriptions. The most distinctive one is the line carving of "Yangzhi Guanyin" engraved on the rock wall southeast of Hunyuan Peak. The carving is clear and about 3.8 meters high. It is 1.6 meters wide and has the inscription "Book of Fujian Disciple Zheng Kuiguang". It is similar to the Yangzhi Avalokitesvara statue erected in the 36th year of Wanli Ming Dynasty (1608) in Yangzhi Temple in Putuo Mountain. Such a huge carved statue of Yangzhi Guanyin is rare in our province. Huancui Temple is the largest place for Buddhist activities in Qingtian. It faces south and has a construction area of ??more than 1,800 square meters. The main buildings include Huancui Temple, Daxiong Hall, and three-story halls (Yantong Hall, Sanguan Hall, and Reclining Buddha Hall). It was first built In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, it was repeatedly destroyed and rebuilt. Liu Chengyi Bo Temple is the only place for activities to commemorate Liu Ji's historical relics in Hecheng, Qingtian. It was built in the 10th year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty (1531), with a construction area of ??about 300 square meters. There are more than 10 pavilions in Taihe Mountain such as Xie Qiao Pavilion, Splashing Yu Pavilion, Wenhe Pavilion and Tingtao Pavilion. The oldest among them is Xie Qiao Pavilion, which was built to commemorate Xie Lingyun, a poet of the Southern Dynasties. There is no evidence that this pavilion was first built in the Qing Dynasty. It was destroyed by the army in the first year of Tongzhi and rebuilt in the twelfth year of Tongzhi. The building has a square plan and an area of ??25 square meters. Taihe Mountain is composed of Mesozoic Cretaceous granite. It was formed when the granite rocks were exposed on the surface due to the uplift of the earth's crust and the strong flow of water from the Oujiang River in the south. The sword-testing stone is formed by the granite joints that have been eroded by running water for a long time. Other pictographic stones, Baihe Cave, Panlong Cave, etc. are all formed by collapse. According to legend, Ye Fashan of the Tang Dynasty refined elixirs here to test his sword. After completing the elixirs, he attained Taoism and ascended to heaven astride a crane. It is called "Qingtian Cave" by Taoists and is the 30th cave among the 36 small caves in Taoist resorts. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Hunyuan Academy, Ruilong Academy, Xinji Academy and Zhengyi Academy were all located here. The beautiful landscape and development over the past dynasties have enriched Taihe Mountain’s culture and become the “root” of Qingtian culture. Qingtian is named "Qingtian" because there is Qingzhi produced in the fields at the foot of Taihe Mountain, and the county seat is named "Crane City" because it is at the foot of Taihe Mountain. In 1981, Taihe Mountain was established as a county park. With the support of Qingtian overseas Chinese and people from all walks of life, it has been continuously renovated and developed, and the landscape has become richer, forming Xieqiao Spring Festival Gala, Danshan Jade Splashing, Fairyland Asking Cranes, and Huancui Pregnancy Show. There are eight scenic spots with their own styles, such as Fusong Tingtao, Dettow Dianyi, Hunyuan Sword Test, and Wangjiang Shuxiao. Taihe Mountain is located to the north of the Qingtian County Government Residence, connected to Kunshan to the west and Tashan to the east.

Qingtian stone carving is a shining pearl in the treasure house of traditional Chinese stone carving art with a long history. The earliest work that can be seen now is an unearthed cultural relic collected in the Zhejiang Museum - a Qingtian stone sculpture of a lying pig used for burials during the Six Dynasties. The works have concise lines, simple shapes, and both form and spirit. The style of the Han and Wei Dynasties can be seen in art. During the Tang and Song Dynasties, Qingtian stone carvings developed greatly. The shapes of Qingtian stone Buddha statues discovered in the Longquan Twin Pagodas during the Wuyue Kingdom of the Five Dynasties indicate that Qingtian stone carvings in the Tang Dynasty experienced breakthroughs in creative themes and techniques. By the Song Dynasty, Qingtian stone carvings absorbed the craftsmanship of "skilled jade", used the skills of "shaping according to the situation" and "making tricks according to the color", and took advantage of Qingtian stone's own advantages in stone color, quality and carving ability, creating a "multi-level" stone carving. The pioneer of "engraving" technique. Multi-level carvings are a major feature of Qingtian stone carvings.
Now, sheep farming in Xiaozhoushan Township has begun to take shape. The breeding scope covers 67 households in 9 administrative villages in the township, mainly concentrated in Xinjian Village, Shangshanlu Village and Xiping Village. Oujiang Turtle Oujiang is the hometown of the turtle. The turtle is a national first-level protected fish. At present, there are only more than 100 birds left in Oujiang River in the country, mainly living in Shimentan, Zhixitan, Shawantan, Shilitan and other places in Qingtian.

The turtle hides at the bottom of the water during the day and comes out to look for food at night. The fecundity is not strong and they lay eggs in the sandy land near the river. After giving birth, in order not to leave any trace, the female turtle jumped into the river like an arrow from the beach four or five meters away. The scene was truly spectacular. But it happens once in a hundred years and is rare. Turtle meat is polyglutinous and will naturally turn into jelly in summer. Its edible value is higher than that of monkey brains and bear paws, but it is forbidden to eat. It is said that buying and releasing turtles can cure diseases and eliminate disasters, so buying and releasing turtles is also a major custom in Qingtian. Camellia oleifera Camellia oleifera is a unique woody oil tree species in my country and one of the four largest woody oil tree species in the world. It has good ecological and economic benefits.
