Daowang Cave, formerly known as Wearing Mountain Cave, is located at the foot of Jiuhua Mountain, a famous Buddhist mountain known as "Lotus Buddha Country", and is contaminated with the Buddha's aura of Jiuhua Mountain, and is blessed by the "natural seated Buddha" at the mouth of the cave, which is magnificent and blessed with natural advantages, and has been regarded as a bright pearl among the many scenic spots in the "Great Jiuhua Tourism Economic Circle". It is known as a bright pearl among the many scenic spots in the "Great Jiuhua Tourism Economic Circle".
Da Wang Cave natural sitting Buddha, kind eyes and big belly Maitreya is smiling at the tourists! Legend has it that ah, the end of the Tang Dynasty Kaiyuan, when the Bodhisattvas of the Earth King came to Jiuhua Mountain, far from seeing Jiuhua Mountain peaks stacked, shaped like a lotus flower, the mountain through the spirit, very happy, and so with his mount beast white dog Shimeji, in the Jiuhua Mountain painstakingly purification. After the fall of the Tang Dynasty, the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms to the rise of war, the last emperor of the Later Han Dynasty, Liu Chengyou, the hidden emperor, the people call him "Zhongyou Da Wang", lost the war, has been retreated to Qiupu, in front of the mountains surrounded by the back of the pursuers, the situation is very critical. Is Zhongyou King at a loss, suddenly from the Jiuhua Mountain ran to a white dog, the sky lightning and thunder, the white dog turned into a huge dragon, through the Qingliao Mountain and left a big hole, Zhongyou King led the troops into the hole to avoid the danger of pursuing soldiers to see the mouth of the cave immortal gas yo yo, the hole in the danger of the passes, scared and fled back to the army. Legend has it that the white dog that passed through the mountain was the mount of the King of Tibet, Shimei. So Chungwoo Daewang stationed here with his subordinates and lived here for quite a long time, hence the name of Daewang Cave. And because it was the divine beast Shimeji that pierced through the mountain, so Dawang Cave is also called Piercing Mountain Cave. "The legend of the white dog transforming into a dragon and piercing the mountain into a cave is still widely spread today. At that time, there were many "Dawang Temples" in Guichi City, and there was one at the entrance of the cave until it was destroyed during the Cultural Revolution. According to experts, the formation of Dawang Cave has a history of more than 200 million years, it is the strata of the many waves of movement and water from the crevices continue to flow downward, so that the cracks gradually expand, and each other isolated from each other's caverns into a single entity, which constitutes a huge cavern by the formation of the Dark River Basin, and the quality of calcium carbonate water to make the dissolved rock continues to develop, thus appearing the underground wonders. According to the records of "Chizhou Prefecture Records" and "Guizhi County Records", the discovery of Dawang Cave has a history of more than 1,000 years, and the famous poet of the Song Dynasty, Fuji Zijing, also came here to play and
And he also wrote a poem like this: "The cave is called open for thousands of years, and the white cloud wanders around without a master, only because of the planting of jade people return to the aftermath of the spring wind, a closed to wait for me to come", indicating that at that time, Dawang Cave was already a huge underground wonder. It shows that the Dawang Cave at that time was already a marvelous scenery, which made the poet forget to come back. However, Dawang Cave was really explored and developed in 1985, and was officially opened to the public in 1987, and in the same year, it was announced by the People's Government of Anhui Province as "the first batch of provincial scenic spots". "Welcome Hall". Legend has it that when King Zhongyou came here, hungry and thirsty, it was the manna dripping from this stalactite, which was like a palace lamp, that sent a touch of coolness to the king. After settling down, he named this hall "Welcome to the Hall", and ordered people to decorate. Cave mouth of this mural in the army of skilled craftsmen made, called the "Eight Immortals across the sea", just a long time ago, the pattern is no longer clear. Legend has it that whoever can distinguish between the eight immortals in the painting, who will find their place in the mural - the ninth immortal. In fact, the mural was formed when calcium in the water seeped out of the cracks in the stone, met carbon dioxide in the air, and condensed on the stone wall. After the king came to the cave, the whole cave will be divided into five areas, this is the first area, guarded by all the generals, called the "Milky Way Scenic Spot", please see the opposite side of the stone wall, there is an upside-down ostrich, it is performing a special program for the guests to receive the dust. Nature's ingenious work of art, for us to create such a magnificent hall, look at the top of the stalactites hanging down, like a slender finger, so we also call it "a thousand fingers of the forest". Inside the forest of a thousand fingers, there is a billion-year-old golden tortoise, a ten-thousand-year-old jade cat, and a sleepy little elf. The walls of the cave are smoky, this is a brewery, the soldiers use the wild fruits on the mountain to brew wine, but there are too many people and not enough wine, how to drink it? The answer to this question will be clear when you travel to the depths of the Milky Way. This is a "Acacia forest". It was a huge Acacia tree. King Zhongyou often came to the bottom of the tree, and when he was touched by his love, he couldn't hold back his tears any longer and wept, causing all the generals to follow along with his tears. Yes, at that time, who would like to leave their homeland and leave their relatives ah? We are now living in this peaceful era, is how happy ah ...... this "Acacia forest" is to Acacia tears watering and become, someone's Acacia tears are still dripping it! In the cave outside the immortal river valley, there are peculiar "Lian Li Zhi", two branches of two trees in the ground two meters high place is hard to grow together, docking without trace, probably the true love of mankind touched the heavens, there will be such a masterpiece! After seeing the "Acacia Forest" and "Acacia Tears", if you are lucky, you will also hear the "Acacia Song". This piece of stalactite, can play a love, poignant and touching sound of acacia, however, in order to protect this peculiar stalactite, the scenic area, only national music masters in the scenic area for formalities to play. Here is an ancient trestle, in geology, is the rock by the impact of water and erosion and the formation of grooves. In the appreciation of the "brewery" left a question, how to drink the wine when there are too many people and not enough wine? This is a wine spring that never stops flowing. If you drink this wine, children will become wiser, old people will live longer, women will be more beautiful, and men will be more successful. Please look up again, it is the elegant seat for leisure in the Great King's cave - the dragon bed and the dragon chair. It is also the wine-tasting table of the king. Once said that the aroma of wine drifting far outside the cave, attracted the drag tower Li Tianwang passing through the footbridge under the clouds, to taste the great king of the spring wine, the result of drunkenness in the dragon bed, his pagoda is also placed in the cave, you see, this is the "White Jade Demon Pagoda".
To the small heavenly prison. This is a small prison is a branch of the cave of the great king, the hole is a giant funnel, not ordinary people can go up and down. It is called "Little Heavenly Jail" because King Chungwoo used this place as a place to hold prisoners and captives, and it is a good air vent, and the cool wind you feel is blowing in from here. Our scenic area has decided that we will open up a tourist adventure program here to further add to the fun of touring for visitors and to more fully utilize the tourist resources of Dawangdong.
See a very dangerous pass, called "Water Gate Pass". This is the way to the depths of the cave. There is a great momentum of "one man to hold the pass, ten thousand men can not open". This pass plays an important role in defending the core of the cave. After the water pass, we entered the second scenic spot - Yaochi Scenic Spot, which was the living area for the ladies of King Zhongyou. This celestial chicken was used for alarm, the ladies had to bathe and change their clothes here
Not only did we need this golden chicken to guard the road entrance here, but we also sent a little angel to the generals' quarters to find out the truth. This big tree resembles the Phoenix Pine of Jiuhua Mountain, and the women's families moved it here as their idol, attracting some admirers to come here in the form of mice to pay homage to it, one to the city and the other to the country. In those days, there must have been a lot of stunning beauties here.
Unconsciously, to the Guanghan Palace. "Moon Palace is fortunate to have an idle field, why not the central planting of two plants." In fact, someone had already planted osmanthus trees in this kind. Please look at the top, that is a large osmanthus tree, the following is Wu Gang holding a ball of osmanthus wine, so the great leader Chairman Mao and poems exclaimed "lonely Chang'e Shu wide sleeves, Wu Gang holding out osmanthus wine". On the opposite stone wall is a natural karst mural called "Chang'e Shu Sleeve". Above is the "Fairy Platform". Legend has it that when the seven fairies stole out of the South Heavenly Gate, they had to look at the fireworks on earth from this platform and fetch firewood from the green hills, so they were very envious of the freedom on earth and came down from here to marry Dong Yong, who was loyal and honest, leaving behind the ancient song - Heavenly Fairy Pairing. In front of us is another natural karst mural, the main pattern of which is "Flying Wings and Fly Together", the left side is "Autumn Pool Flowers and Mandarin Cats", and the right side is "River Stretching Out". This mural is also called "Fish and Rock". These karst is due to the limestone in the long-term weathering process, the brittle and soft part of the shedding, the solid part of the survival of the natural formation.
The third scenic spot - Xianyuan Scenic Spot, this scenic spot of the year when Chungwu Daewang's civil and military ministers anthracite activities. This is the top of the year through the mountain into a hole in the beast Shimei, it can see thousands of miles, ears in all directions, is the Earth King Bodhisattva's mount, but also his old man's most faithful companion. Now we came to the Gathering of Immortals Villa. This is a small hall for resting and was also the council chamber of the great king in those days. One of the rosiest places in the cave - Lover's Valley. On the top of the Lover's Valley there is a lover's tree, and underneath the tree are pairs of lovers. They were all chatting on their knees. Above this is the Peach Garden. The three Peach Trees on this side have upright trunks and luxuriant branches and leaves, but why are there no peaches? Unbeknownst to them, the Monkey King has already been here.
The Great King's Hidden Soldier's Cave - the place where he hides and puts his weapons. It's a military secret.
"The Golden Basin". Here there is a folk song, called "gold basin wash hands, good luck with you go", is the year the king of the gold basin suction hand-washing place, Zhongyou king why gold basin wash hands it, a road, is very dangerous. First of all, we have to cross the "One Line Pass" and then the "Folding Rock". We must be careful of bumping into each other. After a line of pass, now we have to cross the folding rock, here tell us all, to the bend, have to bend down, lower your head, cross the folding rock, we may understand why the king wants to wash his hands in the pot of gold! Yes, where not to bend over in life? Suspension Bridge. There was no bridge here, it was built for the convenience of tourists. This canyon is the last entrance to the King's Dragon Palace, and opposite the entrance is the "Cave on the Cave, Upstairs on the Floor". In those days, this place was heavily guarded by soldiers. This is a fortress. Leaders, this is the largest bridge in our cave, named "Golden Water Bridge". It is the dividing point between the Dragon Palace and the Immortal Garden. From the top of the bridge, the scenery on both sides is different. On the side of the Immortal Garden, there is a strict barrier; on the side of the Dragon Palace, there is a magnificent scenery. Please cross the Golden Bridge and enter the Dragon Palace Scenic Spot, a forbidden place for the royal family.
Dragon Palace scenic area. That above is two sea god needle, it original three, but by the Monkey King borrowed a, to now has not returned, so only two left. In front, is a "divine spring waterfall", only because this waterfall so far have not found its source, so called "spring". This is one of the places where the landscape of Dawang Cave differs from that of other caves. It is one of the places where the landscape of Dawang Cave is different from other caves, because it is very rare to see waterfalls in general caves. This is a huge dragon soaring above the divine spring, this is its head, then where is its tail? This is called "the dragon see the head but not the tail". The following is the "Dragon Pond and the Divine Field", please visitors to go up.
There seems to be no way out, but once you cross the gorge, a more magical landscape lies above! A huge stone, because it has a very strong smell of ink, so we call it "ink stone" if you do not believe, with a hand touch
and then smell. It is the throne of the king. These treasures are not recognizable to the mortal eye. But this elephant is still recognizable; it is the door protector here, the protector of the treasures. Look carefully, why is this leg broken? It is because it is not strict in protecting the treasure, was recognized by the king as "negligence of duty" crime, cut off a leg, punished it. Then why is it still standing here? I've heard that if it deserves to be punished for its crime, it can have its leg restored. Maybe, the next time you come to see it, it will have its leg back! Geographers believe that the formation of islands is the result of folding and uplifting of the earth's crust through stratigraphic movements. Myths: in ancient times, Yan Di is the daughter of the sea to play, accidentally drowned in the sea, and later grief into the Jingwei bird. Day articulated stones to move mountains, bent on filling the sea, so there are many islands, you see, this group of pirates on the many rare birds and exotic animals are also worthy of our study, that the sea bears, seahorses, seals, and that sea frogs they have come to this island, they are coming to visit and sightseeing, or is it for the wronged bird - Jingwei bird of the Unwarranted injustice, the love of the sky and hate the sea? Unbeknownst to them, many phenomena in nature are closely related to our human feelings.
Dragon Palace. This dragon palace is 140 meters long, 50 meters wide, 40 meters high, with a total area of more than 7,000 square meters, is the largest hall of the entire cave, but also the essence of the part. Please see that the palace lights like stars, colors such as the night market colorful. Some people say it is like the West Lake Su Causeway, the configuration of the blue light like the Su Causeway on the hanging willow; some people say like the Bund in Shanghai, the lights of a piece, like the seaside mooring of the ships and boats; some people say like the landscape of Guilin, the mountain in which the water around the mountain; and then look at the top of the Palace, has been occupied by the Flying Dragon, a white dragon like the Milky Way in the sky through the sky, the dance, the potential is higher than the sky, look at the opposite side of that is the Yunyafei waterfalls, so this waterfall is how to How is this waterfall formed? Before we said, in this dragon palace ah, there were three sea God needle, was the Monkey King borrowed a, and now also has not returned, so that nine days of God water pouring down, into this "cloud cliff waterfall". It seems to wash away this brilliant dragon palace, the dragon king has sent the sea to block the flying water disaster. It not only let the dragon palace into a safe, but also let the waterfall into a benefit. The dragon palace has the divine water, the landscape only looks more magnificent. Look at the cloud cliff waterfalls, can not help but think of Li Bai describing the Mount Lu waterfalls poem "sunshine incense burner purple smoke, look at the waterfalls hanging in front of the river, flowing straight down three thousand feet, suspected that the Milky Way fell nine days." Poet's mountains and rivers, such as the painter's mountains and rivers, like miles and miles of feet, gift Li Bai was jealous of the tour of the Autumn Pool, said he was borrowed to write the scenery of Mount Lu, and the lyrics of the feelings of the Autumn Pool, is also not bad? Sea stone flower, this is the sea coral, immortal mountain lingzhi, legend has it that these are the king's treasure. He in order to guard against thieves, but also sent the upper world fairy Zhang Guolao in the second guard it. Look, that's Zhang Guolao up there. First of all, please look upwards. In this phoenix hall, there is a huge lava stone pine. Cave experts say, like such a big, such an image of lava stone pine in China's caves is still rare. Please look at the west side of the stone pine, is already twilight, the setting sun reflects the sky, so call it "ancient pine sunset". We stand in the bottom of this ancient pine tree, seems to see a hundred birds, seems to hear the warbler turn cicadas, that a few pieces of floating clouds, in the azure blue sky on the silk of the drift, bring our hearts into a realm of the Chu Tian. "Jade Pool Shining Shadow". Li Bai wrote in the song of Autumn Pool, "Shining shadow in the jade pool, brushing hair among the qi trees, perched on the cold moon at night, walking on the fallen flowers in the morning." If the poet is to describe the scene may be more appropriate. Because this half-moon jade mirror pool clever sound in the phoenix nest next to, just to the phoenix grooming shadow. Here is bright and brilliant, the water is as clear as blue. If the phoenix at this time is not in the performance of her duties, and back to the palace to rest, then, we can again from this jade mirror to look up to her that heavenly beauty of the beautiful shadow of the country. "Immortals welcome the Phoenix Pavilion". There are many gods and goddesses gathered there, you see, they have sitting and lying, laughing and thinking, dancing and singing. They are all in different forms and are very lifelike. The Monkey King and the Tang Monk and his four disciples also came here. You see, this white dragon horse, seems to be thirsty, is coming towards the river, ready to drink water to fill it, that above is pig eight quit, you see he is still colorful, and in the peeping phoenix, the sun wukong has long been expected to send that sand and the monk change only the old sheep in here to monitor. Now let's just come to look forward to the goddess of the Phoenix. Look, he bathed in sunshine, wearing a colorful haze, standing head high on the Golden Mountain singing long, for the people to report good luck, this is really good luck moment ah! The ancients said, phoenix song on the golden mountain, once in a lifetime, today we are fortunate to meet this kind of great auspicious time, really a lucky star, joy from heaven! That's the Goddess of Mercy sending her son, some say it should be changed to Goddess of Mercy holding her son, family planning is a good thing, with Goddess of Mercy holding her son blessing blessing on the line. Some people say it is like the son of the phoenix chasing the mother, but others say it is like a large ginseng, said like ginseng, there is a legend: back then, the Tang monk went to the West to get the scriptures passed by this place, hungry rumbling, his disciple Sun Wukong busy said: "master, this Phoenix Mountain ginseng is a treasure, you eat will be off the vulgar into immortal, immortality." Tang Monk took a look, where is this what ginseng what fruit? Obviously is a child climbing in the tree to play scared him hastily closed his eyes and palms "Amitabha Buddha, sin, sin" away, the Monkey King had to stop. Above is the phoenix nest. His beautiful and peculiar shape, inside and outside the richly decorated, it has a multi-level structure, but also has a wonderful camouflage, both strict and mysterious. Outside the nest like a bunch of grapes, drooping fruit like beads, watery fresh drops, which is a symbol of the birds to fruit for food. Especially in the bird kingdom of the Queen Mother, fruit, such as beads surrounded by green, more show her special status and her bird kingdom rich. The ancients said, the phoenix does not fall in the land of no treasure, here is really a big gold mountain. It is reflected in the colored lights, flying gold and silver, glittering with light. Above it is a Qiong tree, three hundred in circumference and ten thousand feet high, so we cannot see its branches and leaves, only part of it. Leaders, look again at the multicolored pearls hanging from the beams of the Phoenix Hall. The outside one looks like a clam shell. If it is just a pearl clam, why is it treasured there? It is the pearl crown of Baoxia worn on the head of the Phoenix Queen. The Phoenix, as the Queen of the Bird Kingdom, wears this kind of jewelry as a matter of course, however, this crown of pearls is extraordinary, she once brought it back to retrieve an extra piece of ebony stone when Nuwa refined the stone to mend the sky. You see, she put the golden stone tightly clamped in the wall of the temple, so that in the future, if there is any damage to the sky, she can take it out and use it, and there is no need to labor on Nuwa again. The phoenix is thinking: the sky is not damaged, the world is still peaceful, so her love for the people, by the people worship.
View the scenery of the 700-meter river valley outside the cave. Please look upwards after leaving the cave, it is a small heavenly bridge, the bridge is on the mountain, the mountain is under the bridge, the cave is under the bridge, the bridge is on the cave. The huge funnel of the bridge is up to 100 meters high, which is very intimidating! People call it "South Heavenly Gate".

We can take a rest here, you listen, the sound of the water, such as the sound of the piano, but only hear the sound of the piano, but can not see the master of the piano in where? You do not know, the master of the piano is that pillow flow stone on the "piano waterfall". This waterfall perennial from the big rock rolling down, the big rock rolling smooth and round, like a big pillow. So we named it "Pillow Rock". In front of us is a magnificent natural bridge. This bridge is due to crustal uplift, the underground river strong downward erosion expansion, the cave roof, cave wall collapse, the water drop hole continues to increase and become larger, more and more erosion skylight, so that the big sky bridge above the collapse of the cave roof as a whole, into a bright river, the formation of today's sky bridge below the narrow karst peaks and valleys.
