It is located in Heigou and Beishicaogou in Fengyu at the northern foot of Qinling Mountains, with an altitude of 1988 meters and beautiful scenery. Climb Wanhua Mountain from Heigoukou and watch along the mountain road. There are temple relics such as Lonely Soul Hall, Earth Temple, Guanyin Hall, Yanfei Temple, Nantianmen, and Longwangjing. The Wanmu Niangniang Temple has been restored and located in the mountains. There are also Magnolia Peak, Hanging Bell Peak, Agarwood Peak, Shimenzi and other landscapes, as well as thousand-year-old cypresses and thousand-year-old iron trees for tourists to watch. When you reach the top of the mountain, you can look south to the nine peaks, and the mountains are rolling. If the weather is clear, look down and look north, the ancient city of Xi'an has a panoramic view. The Wanhua Mountain crossing can be divided into 1 day and 2 days, and it can also be visited on a single day on the southern and northern routes. Wanhua Mountain is the place where the story of Qin Opera's "Second Entering the Palace" takes place. Legend has it that during the Longqing period of the dynasty, Emperor Muzong died suddenly, and the empress Li Yanfei temporarily handed over the imperial power to her father because of the young and ignorant prince. However, his father imprisoned Li Yanfei and the prince into the forbidden palace. With the help of loyal ministers such as Xu Yanzhao and Yang Bo, Li Yanfei escaped from the Forbidden Palace, took the prince and his entourage to Chang'an, entered Ziwu, and came to Wanhua Mountain. With the help of several ministers, Li Yanfei regained the imperial power and handed it over to the prince. Later, Li Yanfei stayed on the Wanhua Mountain to practice, and then finally passed away as an immortal. In order to commemorate his mother, Emperor Wanli built the Queen Mother Palace and Notre Dame Hall on the mountain to commemorate, and named the mountain "Wanhua Mountain".
