Shanghai Tianma Mountain, where the leaning tower stands for a thousand years, has good feng shui

On Shanghai Tianma Mountain, a leaning tower stands for a thousand years, and this place has good feng shui. Tianma Mountain has a long cultural history. It is the highest mountain among the nine peaks and twelve mountains of Sheshan Mountain, and also the highest point on land in Shanghai. (The mountain got its name because its shape resembles a winged horse about to fly. It has been a popular place of worship since ancient times and is known as the "Incense Burning Mountain"). There are too many people in the popular scenic spots during the May Day holiday, so it is a good choice to go to Tianma Mountain to experience the beautiful scenery and good feng shui here. The Huzhu Light Tower (Millennium Leaning Tower) The most famous building on this mountain is the Minaret Tower, which is more inclined by 1 degree than the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy. (This pagoda was built in the second year of Yuanfeng in the Song Dynasty (1079). It has seven floors and eight corners. Due to the change of the foundation, the tower body gradually tilted to the southeast. However, the pagoda has not fallen down for thousands of years and stands tall and handsome in the mountains. It is really a wonder. It is said that during the Qing Dynasty, a fire broke out in the temple where the tower was located, burning down the tower's core wood and stairs, leaving only the brick tower body. Later generations found Yuanfeng coins from the Song Dynasty in the cracks between the bricks of the tower, so they kept removing the bricks to look for treasures, which resulted in a 2-meter-wide hole in the northwest corner of the tower. The appearance of this leaning tower really looks too miserable. Today, the temple where the tower was located has disappeared, leaving only a lonely leaning tower with mottled scars all over its body, standing there tenaciously, perhaps telling future generations about the bustling and prosperous times here. Light it. /The ancient ginkgo tree, next to the Huzhu Pagoda, is 700 years old. The trunk of the ancient ginkgo tree is spread out like dragon claws, appearing strong and powerful in its desolateness. Legend has it that it was sent by the mountain god to support the Huzhu Pagoda. The former site of Shangfeng Temple and the bronze statue of Guanyin are located at the highest peak of Tianma Mountain. At that time, Shangfeng Temple was burned down by the Japanese, leaving only ruins, and the bronze statue of Guanyin inside was also stolen by the Japanese. The current bronze Guanyin was recast later.

They were buried together here after their death. There are pavilions, towers, inscriptions, etc. in the Three Gaoshi Cultural Memorial Park. Among them, Liuyun Pavilion looks more imposing, but it is under renovation and can only be viewed from a distance, not up close. V Sword Dance Arena is located on the west side of the mountain. There is also a tower on top called Yuansheng Tower, which is currently inaccessible.
