Springtime at Shizhu Mountain

Dongzhang Reservoir is like a boundless sea, surrounding the scenic area at the foot of the mountain, seemingly endless. The waves shimmer quietly under the sunlight. Take a car from the entrance of the scenic area to the mountain gate, where there is a stone archway with the words "Shizhu Mountain" written on it. The archway faces the shimmering reservoir. Under the archway, there are hundreds of steps leading up the mountain, creating a strong sense of awe. Since you're here, let's climb it. On both sides of the stone steps, there are colorful prayer flags. Some pray for success in exams and promotion, some wish for a happy marriage, and some pray for safety… There are several temples along the way, all of which are not very large. It seems that people always have different needs. One of them introduces Yang Daoming, also known as Qingyang Master, who went from being a chairman of the Red Soviet to a monk in a remote mountain temple. His story is truly amazing. After about 50 minutes, you will finally reach the main temple. Looking back, Dongzhang Reservoir is sparkling and golden. No wonder Xu Xiake and other travelers like to climb high and look far. The scenery is truly different! Your mind will naturally be broadened! The mountaintop is shrouded in mist. Is it because of the strong incense smoke or the fairyland itself? In any case, this is indeed an ideal place for people to close their eyes and wait for their dreams to come true. Aren't gods and fairies all coming and going in the clouds and mist? As you descend the mountain and reach the mountain gate again, you will be surprised to find a blue stone tablet beside the road. The four golden characters "Shizhu Mountain Fu" are quite eye-catching. However, there is no inscription on it. What does it mean? Looking back, the towering stone steps at the mountain gate seem to be reminding people that dreams are not easy to achieve. You must first be brave enough to climb and work hard before you can stand tall and dream well. Tonight, let's wait for the beautiful dream to come…
