Chonglong Mountain Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Zhonglong Mountain in Zizhong, Sichuan, is a famous tourist destination with a long history
🏨 Zhonglong Mountain, Zizhong
🌟 Highlights:
The Zhonglong Mountain scenic area is located in the northeastern corner of Zizhong County, in the southeastern part of the Sichuan Basin, within the urban planning area. A solitary mountain stands tall, and from its summit, one can take in the panoramic views of rivers, mountains, and the cityscape. The mountain is covered with ancient trees that reach the sky, providing a canopy of green.
Within the area, there are ancient architectural attractions such as Yongqing Temple, Laihe Pavilion, Wenming Birth Spread Archway, Zhonglong Pavilion, and Shouyin Pavilion available for rest, as well as attractions like the Gentleman's Spring, Beiyang Cliff Carvings, and the Fish Calling Pond for viewing.
❤ Recommended Reason:
Zhonglong Mountain has a long history and is rich in resources. The scenery combines both grandeur and beauty. Since the Tang and Song dynasties, it has been a famous tourist destination.
👍 Most Recommended:
Currently, only Yongqing Temple is fully open. The temple was originally built during the Tang Dynasty, and the current buildings are mainly from the Ming and Qing dynasties' renovations and reconstructions.
The temple faces south with a quadrangle courtyard layout, covering an area of 10,200 square meters and a building area of 2,869 square meters. It consists of the stone archway of the mountain gate, the Hall of Heavenly Kings, Laihe Pavilion, Putuo Hall, the Mahavira Hall, and the east and west wing rooms.
The main building of the temple, the Mahavira Hall, is designed in harmony, with appropriate decoration size, exquisite patterns, fine carvings, and especially the roof design, which has a strong local characteristic and also possesses the exquisite style of ancient southern architecture, making it a rare cultural relic and architectural treasure.
The Laihe Pavilion, located in the temple, is exquisitely elegant and double-eaved octagonal. It is said that in ancient times, the ancient cypresses and pines of Zhonglong Mountain were lush and green, and white cranes often came to perch and roam, hence the name 'Laihe' for the pavilion.
Since the temple is built on the mountain, it is still necessary to walk up, but the difficulty is not high, and most people can complete it. Moreover, the Zhonglong Mountain scenic area is located in the urban area of Zizhong County, so transportation is very convenient and the cost is low.

Development history:
Yongqing Temple is located on the south side of the top of Zhonglong Mountain. The time of its establishment is unknown. It was rebuilt during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty and was further repaired in the 38th year of Jiaqing (1559). The temple is magnificent and the houses are lined up. Standing in front of the temple and looking far away, the city's scenery is vivid. As the poem by Yang Shunyuan, the inspector of the Ming Dynasty, says: 'Thousands of green mountains are inserted into the sky, and the towers are decorated with the palace of the Buddha. If you wander around the Maoshao Yueling, it is like a pearl in the middle of the finger.' It vividly depicts its beautiful scenery.
Zhonglong Mountain cuisine:
Roast chicken; bamboo tube meat; stir-fried mountain delicacies, etc. The ingredients used, such as roast chicken, are naturally raised and not fed any feed. The growth period is generally more than a year. The bamboo tube used for bamboo tube meat is wild mountain bamboo, which has a special fragrance. The mountain delicacies used for stir-fried mountain delicacies are naturally grown on the mountain.
Scenic features:
Next to the statues, there are many inscriptions and poems by famous people since the Tang Dynasty. Yongqing Temple currently has more than 1700 collections, including calligraphy steles by famous people such as Su Dongpo, Huang Tingjian, and paintings by Yuan Mei, Zeng Guofan, and Zhang Daqian. Among them, Huang Tingjian's 'Ode to the Quiet Orchid' stele is the most precious and is a rare treasure. Neijiang has the custom of hanging wormwood on the fifth day of May. On the fifth day of May, people hang wormwood on the door, saying that this is to commemorate an old lady. The not-so-high Zhonglong Mountain is densely wooded, and a winding stone path is hidden in the weeds. There are fewer traces of artificial chiseling, and more natural mountain and wild atmosphere. No wonder the Sichuan dialect drama 'Commander Fool' chose to shoot here. Passing through the shooting site of 'Commander Fool', walking up the stone steps, passing the Hundred Steps Cloud Ladder, and arriving in front of the ancient temple on the top of the mountain, the two slanting guest pines are rugged and interesting, which is incomparable to the worldly things in the red dust. Stepping on the moss and entering the ancient temple, the ancient temple is solemn and strict, the monks who do the lessons are as quiet as water, and the sound of the chime, the chanting, and the wooden fish make the ancient temple more mysterious and ethereal. In the water pavilion, there are lotus ponds on all sides, and the nine-turn bridge railings are bright red. A few high-rolled exquisite houses are used for tourists to drink tea and talk. You can drink alone in the flowers, or you can drink tea and talk about Zen with the monks. The tea is the new tea that the monks on the mountain plant, pick, and make themselves. With the rootless water brewing, the indoor sandalwood and tea fragrance will cleanse the dusty soul of people.
