Penglai Pavilion is one of the four famous buildings in ancient China. It is an ancient building group that embodies the wisdom and artistic crystallization of ancient working people in China. It has been built many times in history.
The main building of Penglai Pavilion was built in the 6th year of the Song Dynasty (161). It is known as a fairyland on earth, and its legend of "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea" and "Mirage" are well-known at home and abroad.
Penglai Pavilion has experienced many vicissitudes of life, and now it has developed into an ancient building complex as the central axis, Penglai Watertown and Hetian Hengshan as the two wings, four cultures (immortal culture, Jingwu culture, port culture and marine culture) as the background, and mountains (Danyashan), seas (Bo Huang Erhai), cities (Penglai Watertown) and pavilions (Penglai Pavilion) as the pattern, giving the ancient city Penglai a profound.
Penglai Pavilion, the main building of Penglai Pavilion, is a double-decker hill and surrounded by a cloister, on which the gold-lettered plaque written by calligrapher Tie Bao is hung, giving people a feeling of being beautiful and dignified. Looking around the pavilion, you can see the beautiful mountains and waters.
Due to the unique geographical environment, the scenery here is not only different all year round, but also changing endlessly from day to day. In the morning, watching the red sun rising in Guanlan Pavilion is spectacular.
at dusk, you can enjoy the evening tide, which is poetic and picturesque. There are ten fairy scenes in Penglai. "Mirage" is a wonder. Every spring and summer, at the turn of summer and autumn, when the sky is clear and the sea is quiet, "mirage" appears from time to time, and a mountain stands on the sea, or a strange peak rises, or a towering building is superimposed, gathering at different times, which is unpredictable and can't help but be fascinated.
Penglai Pavilion Scenic Area has successively won the National Key Cultural Relics Protection Unit, National Key Scenic Area, National Advanced Unit for Creating Civilized Industry and National May Day Labor Award.

When you visit Penglai Pavilion, you can see it from a distance. The pavilion is hidden among the green trees and perched on the cliff, just like the fairy palace in myth. The charm of Penglai lies not only in its heavy historical and cultural accumulation and boundless scenery of mountains and seas, but also in its beautiful and moving myths and legends.
There are two very important myths handed down in ancient China-one is the Kunlun myth system; One is Penglai myth system. The myth system of Kunlun originated in the western plateau. After its magnificent story spread to the East, it was combined with the vast sea to form the myth system of Penglai.
Penglai has naturally become the birthplace of China's oriental mythology. In Shan Hai Jing and Feng Chan Shu, Penglai, the abbot and Yingzhou are vividly depicted, which led Qi Weiwang and Yan Zhaowang to send explorers to the sea to seek the sacred mountain, Qin Shihuang toured east for medicine, and Han Wudi visited the immortals.
according to historical records, there are often sea markets in the sea north of Penglai, which are illusory and unpredictable. Those good alchemists interpreted the legend of going out to sea on the three sacred mountains with the illusion and magic of the sea city, vividly depicting a fairy world that the world yearns for, adding a bit of spirit to Penglai.
Later, the story of "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea" was added here, which was even more vivid and charming, and it was called "fairyland on earth". Moreover, most of the Eight Immortals were cultivated by mortals-only Lv Dongbin's previous life was pure Yang.
There is the Eight Immortals Cave under Penglai Pavilion, which is said to be the practice place of the Eight Immortals. The story of "Eight Immortals" has a strong practical significance-the "Kunlun myth system" can be said to be "dragon begets dragon, phoenix begets phoenix." The "myth system".
The immortals in the system are born immortals, and have nothing to do with mortals. They are above and beyond the reach of mortals. The "Penglai myth system" represented by the "Eight Immortals" has many representatives of mortals becoming immortals.
It gives mortals great hope-mortals can become immortals through cultivation! It also attracts many people to visit Penglai Pavilion, hoping to get a touch of immortality, which is also an important reason why Penglai Pavilion is famous and tourists are woven.
In addition, Penglai's geographical location and topographical features make it a very suitable place to live. In addition, there are no major natural disasters in Penglai and Jiaodong Peninsula, as if there were gods to protect them.
During the epidemic prevention and control period, all the areas around Penglai were colored on the epidemic map. Only Penglai and the original Penglai were under the jurisdiction of Longkou, and Long Island was not colored, which also confirmed that "Penglai" is indeed the fairy cave house, and all diseases are invulnerable!
Penglai Pavilion Scenic Area is open-minded and welcomes every visitor!
