Introduction
Nangongshan National Forest Park, located in Langao County, Ankang City, Shaanxi Province, is a part of the Hualong Mountains branch of the Daba Mountains. The park is made up of five major scenic areas: Erlangping, Jinding, Huoshanshi, Gaoshanli, and Lianhuazhai, and is famous for the true body of the eminent monk Hongyi, traces of ancient volcanic activity, glacial relics from the Quaternary period, and primitive secondary forests. Since the second year of Jingkang in the Northern Song Dynasty (AD 1126), a Taoist temple has been built on the mountain, gradually becoming a Buddhist holy place over time. On the second day of July in the 25th year of Jiaqing in the Qing Dynasty (AD 1820), the eminent monk Hongyi passed away in the lotus flower basin on Jinding, adding to the mysterious aura of Nangongshan.
