Duyun, Guizhou

Fuquan Mountain is located in the southwest corner of Fuquan City. Zhang Sanfeng, the founder of the famous Taoist internal martial arts, practiced here for eight years in the late Yuan and early Ming dynasties. It is a famous Taoist holy place. Standing on Fuquan Mountain and looking far into the distance, you can see that it is surrounded by peaks on all sides. There is a river at the foot of the mountain. The water connects with the lawn on the bank, forming a natural "Tai Chi diagram" with clear yin and yang; Turtles, and the curved river water resembles snakes, naturally forming a "turtle and snake locking the river" picture. It is truly an excellent place for Taoist practice. The great immortal cultivates here, which makes the mountains and rivers of Fuquan imbued with the spirit of immortality, in line with the famous saying, "The mountain is not high, but the immortal is famous." The Yuxian Pond, Huishenggui, Straw Sandals Well, Diaojing, Forest of Steles, Tianchi that resembles the Chinese territory, etc. on Fuquan Mountain all have a beautiful legend related to the great immortal. Because Zhang Sanfeng practiced in Fuquan Mountain, Fuquan Mountain became famous and became one of the top ten monasteries in Sichuan in the early Ming Dynasty. Every mountain, every water, every plant and every tree in Fuquan Mountain has traces of Zhang Sanfeng, and there are endless myths and legends.
