In late spring and early summer, tassels bloom in front of the Queen Mother Pond, attracting many tourists. On the third day of the third month of the lunar calendar, commonly known as the Queen Mother's birthday, pilgrims from far away come to burn incense, bringing their elderly and children. Taoist priests in the Taoist temple also hold rituals, and there is a young Taoist priest who recites the scriptures very skillfully. It sounds vaguely like ancient style!
The Queen Mother Pond is located at the east end of Huanshan Road, under Hushan Mountain and south of Longshan Reservoir. It was called Qunyu Temple in ancient times and also known as Yaochi. Cao Zhi of Wei in the Three Kingdoms period wrote the poem "Passing the Queen Mother's House in the east, overlooking the Five Mountains", and Li Bai of the Tang Dynasty also chanted "Drinking from the Queen Mother Pond in the morning and throwing himself into the Heavenly Gate at night", which shows that the temple has a long history.
The Queen Mother Pond is built by the river, with halls, pavilions and pavilions scattered on a three-story platform, with red walls and black tiles hidden among the green pines and cypresses. It is divided into two courtyards, the front courtyard has the Queen Mother Spring, the spring water is clear and sweet, it was dug by Mr. Feng Yuxiang in 1932 to solve the drinking water problem of Taicheng residents; the back courtyard is the Seven True Hall, the clay sculptures in the hall are lifelike with different expressions. To the east is the waterfall viewing pavilion, and to the west is the Laojun Hall, which displays the "Mandarin Duck Stele" from the Tang Dynasty. Although the Queen Mother Pond is not large in scale, it has a long history and rich culture. It is a must-visit place for those who like and study ancient Chinese culture.

Located at the southern foot of Mount Tai, north of Daizongfang, across the river from Hushan, near Hongmen, it is a free scenic spot at the foot of Mount Tai. Inside the front gate of the scenic spot, there is a spring that gathers into a pool, named Queen Mother Pool. Along the stairs, there are three main halls, where the Queen Mother of the West is worshipped.
I have been to the Queen Mother Pool three times, and each time I had a different experience. Now it is free to visit, so there are fewer tourists. The ancient buildings are worth seeing again and again, and the water in front of the Queen Mother Pool scenic area is very good!
