Sunlight Rock

A corner of Gulangyu Island

Sunlight Rock is commonly known as "Yanzaishan" and also known as "Huangyan". According to legend, Zheng Chenggong came to Huangyan in 1641. Seeing that the scenery here is better than Japan's Sunlight Mountain, I separated the word "Akira" and called it "Sunlight Rock". Sunlight Rock Tourist Area consists of two parts: Sunlight Rock and Qinyuan. Sunlight Rock stands in the south of the central part of Gulangyu Island. It is composed of two huge rocks, one vertical and one horizontal, leaning against each other. It becomes the peak of Longtou Mountain. With an altitude of 92.7 meters, it is the highest peak of Gulangyu Island. Standing at the gate of Sunlight Rock, I saw a huge rock more than 40 meters high, standing in the sky. On the cliff of the huge rock, there was the four-character "Tianfeng Haitao" inscribed by Xu Shiying in 1915; there were two lines below it. Inscribed with large characters, the right side is "Gulang Cave Sky" and the left side is "Lujiang No. 1". The former was written by Ding Yizhong, a native of Danyang, Jiangsu Province in the first year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1573 AD). This is the earliest inscription on Sunlight Rock. carve. The latter was written by Lin Xianxian from Changle, Fujian during the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty. The two are close to each other and have the same handwriting. Lin Xianxian's signature is particularly large. Visitors often mistakenly think that both were written by Lin Xianxian. In fact, the latter was inscribed later than the former. More than two hundred years. The above three major cliff carvings can be said to vividly summarize the scenery of Sunlight Rock, leaving a deep impression on visitors. This is the first view of Sunlight Rock. [6]

Shuzhuang Garden

Shuzhuang Garden is located behind Hong Kong Aberdeen on Gulangyu Island. It was built in 1913. The owner Lin Erjia, also known as Shu Zang, is named after His name is a homophonic name. In 1894, the Qing government failed in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894 and Taiwan was ceded to Japan the following year. Lin Weiyuan and his son-in-law Zang did not want to be slaves to subjugation and moved to Gulangyu Island to live. Later, Uncle Zang built this garden. Shuzhuang built a garden next to the sea. In the sea garden, there is a cave next to the mountain, and the mountains are built with rocks. It contrasts with the scenery of the mountains and water in the distance and forms an integrated whole. The towers, pavilions and pavilions built have different shapes. The bridges and bridges have low railings, shaped like swimming dragons. In the garden, you can look at the sea, with the waves lapping at the shore, and leaning on the railing, you can see the mountains and the sea in the distance. There are also the secluded caves, paths full of flowers, and rows of green trees. It is a rare scenic spot. The garden construction is divided into two parts: Zanghai Garden and Bushan Garden. They mainly use gardens to hide the sea, use gardens to decorate the sea, use the sea to expand the gardens, use stones to mend mountains, and use caves to hide the sky. The total area of ??Shuzhuang Garden is 20,328 square meters, including 3,352 square meters of water and 2,451 square meters of buildings. Using a limited area to create infinite space, the small makes the big appear bigger, which is thought-provoking. Originally, this courtyard was mainly about tranquility, which created interest, but in front of me, there were waves crashing on the shore and splashing waves. The sound of the waves echoes, creating movement within silence, stillness within movement. The contrast between movement and stillness complements each other, creating a perfect combination and full of fun. [7]

Haoyue Garden

Haoyue Garden is located on Fudingyan Beach in the east of Gulangyu Island. It covers an area of ??30,000 square meters and spreads along the shore of Lujiang River.

There is a giant bronze statue of Zheng Chenggong and his generals in the park, which is 13.7 meters long, 4.7 meters high and consumes 18 tons of copper. This giant bronze sculpture, except for Zheng Chenggong and his left and right generals Chen Ze, Chen Guang, Chen Yonghua, and Yang Chaodong, is slightly larger than the real size. The other soldiers and horses extend towards both sides. The picture is broad and attractive. Attention. What is more prominent in the park is the giant granite statue of Zheng Chenggong standing on Fuding Rock. This giant statue was completed on August 27, 1985.

Ancient Summer Cave

The Ancient Summer Cave is a very unique cave. The stone walls on both sides support granite boulders falling from the sky, giving people the feeling of being overwhelmed by Mount Tai. It is very steep. The four words "ancient summer cave" above were inscribed by Shi Shijie, a Taiwanese scholar in the late Qing Dynasty. The cave is bright, dry, ventilated and refreshing. Passing through the ancient summer cave and turning left, there is a small and slim pavilion, which supports the slender waist and uses the rock as a balcony. It is called "Umbrella Pavilion" for tourists to shelter from the sun and rain. On the top of the rock next to it, there is a stone basin where the immortal washed his feet. It has been filled with water for many years. There are also the footprints of the immortal on the side.

In fact, the "Immortal Seal" and the "Foot Basin" are all sea-eroded landforms eroded by waves. In the distant geological era, this place was still under the erosion of waves. Later, due to the rise of the earth's crust, these sea-eroded landforms appeared in the On the top of the mountain.

Longtou Mountain Village

Sunlight Rock, also known as Longtou Mountain, faces Hutou Mountain in Xiamen across the sea. One dragon and one tiger guard Xiamen Port, which is called "Dragon and Tiger Guarding the River". The original "Xu Pavilion" here has been destroyed long ago. Shi Guoqiu of Taiwan wrote an article "Xuting Ji", describing Sunlight Rock as "Shanluo Gulang Stone"

Surrounded by the sea, the first lake in the southeast as far as the eye can see, the light of the water touches the sky, and the waves bathe in the sun, all of which are represented by Buddhist temples. strange". Dengdao is flanked by boulders and dense walls, and the sea breeze blows through it, which means that "nine summers bring coldness", and the coolness naturally comes from the "Lujiang Dragon Cave". "Nine Summers" means summer, and "Dragon Cave" is the place where dragons live, because it is said that five dragons once lived on Gulangyu Island. This village gate is the gate of the "Longtou Mountain Village" where Zheng Chenggong stationed troops on Gulangyu Island. The round hole on the rock was dug by soldiers setting up tents. General Cai Tingcuo, the former commander of the 19th Route Army of the Kuomintang, was so moved by the scene that he wrote this Qilu: "With one hand in mind, I can mend the sky, and the eight Fujian villages can maintain the unity of the present and the past; the ancient fortress is still there, and I recall the heroes under the Sunlight Rock." The praise for Zheng Chenggong is extraordinary. Mr. Cai Yuanpei also has a poem with seven rhymes: "The strong wind suppresses the sea waves, and the command is as high as the formation. Sometimes the insects, sand monkeys and cranes are exhausted, and the righteousness cannot be lost." "Chongsha monkeys and cranes" refer to those who died in the army.

Longwu of the Southern Ming Dynasty came to the throne in Fuzhou. Seeing that he was loyal to the court, he gave him the surname "Zhu" and changed his name to "Shenggong", so the people called him "Zheng Guo's surname". Emperor Yongli named him King Yanping. His father Zheng Zhilong secretly surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and Zheng Chenggong left Kinmen and vowed to fight to the death against the Qing Dynasty. He used Kinmen and Xiamen as his bases and fought fiercely with the Qing army for many years. He once reached the gates of Nanjing, but was defeated due to arrogance. On the bright day of April 1661, Zheng Chenggong was fully prepared and led hundreds of warships and 25,000 officers and soldiers to set out from Koro Bay in Kinmen to recover Taiwan, which had been occupied by the Dutch for 38 years, and worked hard to develop Taiwan.

Heroes Garden

Heroes Garden was built to commemorate the martyrs who liberated Xiamen and attacked Gulangyu Island. It consists of three parts: a small memorial square, a memorial sculpture and a memorial room.

At the end of September 1949, the Tenth Corps of the Chinese People's Liberation Army liberated the southern Fujian mainland, forming a situation of encircling the Kuomintang troops in Kinmen and Xiamen on three sides. On October 15, the 31st Army and the 29th Army of the Corps began to launch cross-sea operations against Xiamen. At 18:00 that day, the fleets of two battalions each from the 271st Regiment and the 277th Regiment of the 31st Army took the lead. There are two routes from Haicang and other places to the Haoyue Garden in the southwest of Gulangyu Island. With the close cooperation of the boatmen in front of the support, the heroic PLA officers and soldiers fought against the wind and waves, braved the fierce enemy artillery fire, marched forward bravely, and landed on the beach at the foot of the mountain. For a moment, artillery fire was flying, thunder and lightning crashed; the sound of soldiers was killing them, and their anger was overwhelming the sea and mountains. Unfortunately, Wang Xingfang, the leader of the 271st Regiment, and hundreds of other commanders and combatants, as well as Zhang Shuijin's family and other ex-support boatmen, died gloriously in the battle. After two days and nights of bloody fighting, our army finally liberated the entire islands of Xiamen and Guzhou and achieved final victory. Loyal bones are buried in the green mountains, and loyal hearts shine in the annals of history. After the liberation of Xiamen and Guzhou, the people called this mountain (originally called "Qizaiwei Mountain") Hero Mountain.
