Geese return to hover over Huiyan Peak

Although Huiyan Peak is less than a hundred meters in altitude, it stands as the foremost among the seventy-two peaks of Nanyue, proving the saying: 'A mountain need not be high; with immortals, it becomes famous.' The scenic area is not large, but it is a hidden dragon and crouching tiger, with many famous scholars and patriots having visited, studied, and composed poetry here. The first sight upon ascending the mountain is the Shangda Archway. The words 'Shangda' are said to have been written by a monk from Yanfeng Temple with a fire poker. The Yanfeng Temple on the mountain is grand in scale and bustling with incense offerings. The three characters for Huiyan Peak were penned by Tang Tianji, a veteran general from Hunan who graduated from the Whampoa Military Academy, which shows that the military leaders of the Republic of China period were not merely warriors! According to the ride-hailing driver, Hengyang is going to hold a tourism conference in the second half of the year, and they are currently engaged in construction, building roads, and renovating scenic facilities, with the main gate and sculptures also being enclosed. I could only take a distant photo of the sculpture with geese hovering and the panoramic view, but as the calligraphy on the back of the Shangda Archway from the early Republic of China by Hengyang calligrapher Jiang Qianheng says, 'Do not regard this as a mere trifle.' Gentlemen, do not underestimate Huiyan Peak; a mountain need not be high, with immortals, it becomes spirited
