Shuangfengzhang Tourist Area

　　    The Lianjiang Shuangfengzhang Tourist Area is situated in the northwest of Lianjiang City, over 50 kilometers from the city center. Covering a planned area of 12.3 square kilometers, the area boasts picturesque landscapes, beautiful scenery, and unique vistas.

　　　　       Towering proudly, Shuangfengzhang Mountain is covered with wild fruits such as nanmu, shanmang, wushao, shanjiao, jiangjiuzi, and yanmei — with over 90 varieties in total, especially the lush and enchanting nanmu berries. The mountain is dotted with uniquely shaped rocks, each vividly lifelike. The most famous is the nearly 20-meter-high “Mirror Rock,” which seems to glow. To the right of the stone mirror lies a stone comb with two remaining teeth — a marvel of nature. To the northeast, Xianrenzhang Peak rises 367 meters above sea level and, when viewed from the southeast, resembles an immortal sitting cross-legged. The area preserves over 2,000 acres of relatively intact primeval forest, where ancient trees tower with intertwined roots, displaying diverse forms and lush green canopies. Under the trees, mountain springs tinkle, and rare animals such as wild boars, squirrels, pangolins, and golden pheasants can often be spotted. Birds chirp joyfully in the trees, while bees buzz and butterflies flutter year-round. On the mountain, the Immortal’s Well and Immortal’s Cave are even more mysterious. The cave extends hundreds of meters deep and is furnished with stone beds, tables, chairs, and screens. It was once the stronghold of the bandit Wendao, capable of housing over a hundred people. At the foot of the southeastern ridge, granite rocks bear imprints resembling hips and footprints. Beside these imprint stones flows a winding spring and a small pool spanning a few square meters. Legend says these marks were left by fairies who descended to bathe their feet and admire the scenery. To the west of Shuangfengzhang stands Pojizhang Peak, 30 meters high, resembling the hair bun of a Tang Dynasty beauty. The peak is covered with verdant pine forests and layered granite. Within Shuangfengzhang, there are attractions such as Turtle Stone, General Stone, and Five-Finger Stone. Legend has it that during the Han Dynasty, General Ma Yuan camped here while suppressing rebellions in the south. After his victorious return, he left behind footprints and inscriptions on stone tablets. To the north and south of Shuangfengzhang lie Mirror Lake and Shangshan Reservoir, both with expansive, crystal-clear waters so still they resemble two gleaming pearls embedded in the landscape.
