for several days of cold air, the "dripping cliff" (also known as rain flower rock) in the Changqing District of Ji'nan city is also a strange landscape - the ice columns with white jade are hung over the whole The cliff, the formation of a "ice waterfall", is very spectacular.
drop cliff is located at the foot of the Ming Kong hole and east of the tan Bao spring. The water from the drop cliff runs and falls from the cliffs and cracks all the year round. Every spring, summer and autumn, the three seasons are dripping and splashing. The entire cliff forms a curtain of water, and the water drips in winter, so it is called "dripping precipice". A drop of water into the ice season, drip cliff falling from top to bottom water, in the cold north wind blowing, condensing into ice columns, ice columns gradually from small to larger, more and more long, slowly ice columns and ice columns connected, forming a white jade ice waterfall, hanging the entire cliff, very good - looking.
the dangerous rocks are stacked up, the rocks are craggy and the cypresses are standing. The mountains are covered with dark green pines and cypresses, and the cliffs are full of ice columns. They hang on the ice columns on the cliffs, some like the pillar of jade, some like the curtain hanging, some like the pagoda and the vivid image.
there is a river valley across the cliff, the ancient cypress green on the cliff, the white ice column between the cliffs, the green bamboo of the "Wan bamboo garden" on the Bank of Hebei, the ancient cypress, the ice waterfall and the Cuizhu each other, forming a natural landscape painting, which is very charming.
according to historical records, the Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty had visited the temple of Ling Yan seven times. Every time he went to the temple of spiritual rock, he went to the "drip cliff" sightseeing, which was always fascinated by the scenery here. Once Emperor Qianlong came to the drop cliff, attracted by the sight, and was excited by his passion. He wrote down the three powerful and powerful words of "rain flower rock", and engraved the stone tablet on the water cliff. After the stone monument was destroyed, it has not been deposited.
drop water cliffs lie on the shady side of Nanshan cliff. The temperature here is lower than a few degrees in winter than anywhere else, so dripping water freezes easily. It can be much cooler in summer and autumn than anywhere else. Anyone who has been here has been called "dripping cliff" as a good place for sightseeing.
