With majestic mountains, beautiful scenery and pleasant climate in all seasons, it is a "national key scenic spot" and a summer resort in China, and is known as "the first mountain in Lingnan". Su Dongpo once wrote here in the Northern Song Dynasty: "There are four seasons of spring in Luofu Mountain, and oranges and bayberries are new. 300 lychees a day will grow up to be Lingnan people without hesitation, making Luofu Mountain famous all over the world. Immortals such as Ge Hong, Wong Tai Sin, Bao Gu, Lv Dongbin, He Xiangu and Tie Guai Li. Have all left the scenic spot.

According to legend, in ancient times, only Luoshan and Fushan floated from the East China Sea, leaning against the northeast of Luoshan and connected with Tieqiao Peak, hence the name. According to the records in Volume 27 of Seven Clouds, Luofu Mountain is the seventh cave of the top ten caves of Taoism and the thirty-fourth of the seventy-two blessed lands. There are 72 stone chambers, 18 caves, 432 peaks, 980 waterfalls and flying springs in the mountain. The original Taoist temples and Buddhist temples, such as Nine Views, Eighteen Views and Twenty-two Views, are scattered all over the place. Many scholars and alchemists have been visiting the mountains, living in seclusion and writing poems for them, such as Lu Jia, Xie Lingyun, Li Bai, Du Fu, Li He, Liu Yuxi and Su Dongpo. During the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Ge Hong, a famous Taoist theorist, alchemist and physician, went into the mountains to make an alchemy, collected herbs to help the world, wrote books and set up nine-day view, Huanglong view, Xu Chongguan, crisp mash view and white crane view. Ge Hong lived in the mountains for many years, idled around and wrote a lot. He inherited and developed the theory of immortals in early Taoism, sorted out all kinds of alchemy popular at that time, summed up his rich experience accumulated in the process of developing elixir, and wrote the book "Chapter of Bao Puzi", which not only determined the theoretical system of immortals in China, but also enriched the ideological content of Taoism, making Luofu Mountain gradually become a famous Taoist mountain in Lingnan. According to the records of Luofu Mountain, the immortal An Qi Sheng went up the mountain in Qin and Han Dynasties, and Bai Yuchan, a famous Taoist priest in Song Dynasty, also gave lectures here. There are many places of interest and scenic beauty in Luofu Mountain.
