A Fusion of Thousand-Year-Old Temples and Natural Wonders

The beauty of Xiqiao Mountain lies not only in its natural scenery but also in its profound cultural heritage. The Baofeng Temple on the mountain is a popular place of worship, with every brick and tile exuding a sense of history. The waterfalls and springs hidden in the mountains are refreshing and invigorating. I remember sitting quietly beside the Wuye Well, listening to the tinkling of the spring water, as if it could cleanse the dust from my soul.

Climbing to the top of the mountain and overlooking this magical land, I felt as if I had traveled through billions of years.
