Gaojing Temple Forest Park

　　Gaojing Temple Forest Park ---- located in the picturesque "China Green Tea Capital" —— southeast of Langxi County, about 10 kilometers from the county town, covering an area of nearly 20,000 mu. It neighbors Nanfeng, Shizi, and the state-owned Shizipu Tea Farm. The area gets its name from an ancient well and an ancient temple. The ancient well has crystal-clear water with a high water level that never recedes even during droughts, making it a local marvel. The ancient temple, which had three rooms, was built during the Kangxi period and was demolished in 1972, with only ruins remaining today.

　　The forest within the park is dense and towering, blocking out the sky, with trees in various graceful and swaying postures. At the highest point of the forest farm stands a large Albizia tree, 16.5 meters tall, with a trunk diameter of 0.85 meters and a crown spread of 22 meters, resembling a giant mushroom. On clear days, it can be spotted from over ten li away, making it a rare tree species. In the Tongzi Mountain area of the forest farm, the sounds of cicadas and birds create a wonderfully serene ambiance in spring and summer, echoing the poetic line “Cicadas chirp, yet the woods grow quieter; birds sing, yet the mountains grow more secluded.” The diverse tree species and beautiful environment here provide an ideal habitat for rare wildlife such as egrets and Chinese alligators. Gaojing Temple Forest Park not only serves the ecological function of a public welfare forest but also acts as a natural and ideal destination for leisure, tourism, and recreation during holidays.
