Shenglu Spring Scenic Spot

2008-11-14  

    Shenglu (Holy Milk) Spring, also known as Shilu (Stalagmite) Spring, is a rare and marvelous hanging spring spectacle. The water droplets running off the stalagmites look like pearls falling into a pond, making a musical splash below. Shenglu Spring has other scenic spots, including Wangfeng (Peak Viewing) Gate, Wulong Chaomu (Five Dragons Worshipping Their Mother) Hall, Sihai Longwang (Dragon King of Four Seas) Hall, Sanhuang (Three Kings) Pavilion, Wuyue (Five Mountains) Hall, Mazu (Sea Goddess) Hall, Shengmu (Goddess) Hall and Baxian (Eight Immortals) Cave.
    Fengfang (Honeycomb) Spring gets its name from the shape of the stalactites on the cliff walls. It is also called Shenglu Spring. Spring water drops year round into this pond from dozens of jade-like stalactites on the cliff walls. The water is so clear that people can see the bottom of the pond. Every spring and summer, small purple flowers grow on these stalactites, blowing slightly in the breeze. The stalactites and purple flowers together create an even more spectacular scene.
    Sanhuang Pavilion. There are three kinds of gods: Shang San Huang (upper three gods), Zhong San Huang (middle three gods) and Xia San Huang (lower three gods). The three gods in the middle are called God of Heaven, God of Earth and God of Humans. Legend goes that they are the ancestors of heaven, earth and humankind. The God of Heaven controls the weather, while the God of Earth advocates morality and the God of Humans stresses life. Zhong San Huang means Fuxi, Nuwa and Shennong. Xia San Huang refers to Huangdi, Yao and Shun. They were all ancestors of the Chinese nation according to legend.
