Laojun Rock Sculptures

We went to Qingyuan Mountain to see the statue of Laozi. We arrived soon after entering the scenic spot. There was no need to climb the mountain. The weather was sunny and the photo was still very good. Parking in the scenic spot is convenient and there is a parking lot. Time and physical strength are OK, you can go climbing, and there are some good scenery to see the introduction. Just look at Laojunyan, the ticket feels small and expensive.

The statue of Lao Jun is listed as a key cultural relics protected nationwide, and is a unique artistic gem in China's Taoist stone carvings. It is carved in the Song Dynasty, after thousands of years of storms and vicissitudes, it is still lifelike and beautiful.

At the foot of Qingyuan Mountain in Quanzhou, there is a myth that Lao Jun is an old tyrant, living very happily, he often sneaked out to enjoy the scenery of the world when the heavens were nothing, and was found by the Jade Emperor when he knew it. One day, Lao Jun sneaked into the world to Quanzhou Qingyuan Mountain to view. When he looked at the picturesque mountain scenery and smelled the refreshing fragrance of flowers, he was completely intoxicated with all this, and a shriek of shrillness mixed with the earth-shaking noise, disturbing the old man's mood. The old man flew furiously towards the place where the sound was made. He saw a fireball flung at the panicked people, and in a moment of anger, and fought with the fireball, because the two martial arts are not much different, and it is difficult to score high and low. Lao Jun made a brilliant trick, hit a shot, hit the fireball back to the original shape, the fire spirit has a big injury, self-knowledge can not hit Lao Jun, then casually shouted: "Master! You finally come! Save me! " Lao Jun turned his head and wondered: What, where is someone? When the old gentleman turned around, the fire spirit had fled. In order that the fire spirit would no longer harass the people, he gave up his body to become a god statue, guarding the foot of Qingyuan Mountain in the town. The people of Qingyuan Mountain were very grateful and admired the old gentleman, and called this god statue Laojun Rock, and became a famous scenic spot! This is the legend of Laojunyan, a long-standing mythical story! In addition, the folk have climbed up to Laojun if they touch their eyes, they can live to 106 years old; they can live to 102 years old; they can live to 109 years old legend. Laozi is a famous philosopher and thinker in the ancient spring and autumn period of China. Lao Jun statues were carved in the Song Dynasty. According to the Quanzhou Fuzhi, "the stone statues are made of heaven, and the good ones are slightly carved." A few words make it more mysterious. The stone statue is5.1 meters high,7.2 meters thick,7.3 meters wide, and the floor area is 55 square meters. Stone statue head wearing a wind hat, clear forehead, two eyes flat, nose high, right ear lobe shoulder, sky flying, face with smile, left hand knee, right hand with a few, index finger and small finger slightly forward, like a bullet, back screen green mountains, sitting upright, more empty mountains and valleys, away from the world. The vivid expression of the old man's kind and happy expression, and thus became a symbol of healthy and long life.
