The Wonders of Creation, also known as the Stone Sail. It is said to be a masterpiece left by the Eight Immortals when they crossed the sea. At first, the eight immortals planned to cross the sea from Yantai Mountain to Japan. During the preparation for crossing the sea here, Empress Dowager invited these eight immortals to go to Fujian, the hometown of Empress Dowager, for a banquet. In order to save time, Lu Dongbin drew his sword and split a huge rock on the mountainside into two halves. One half rolled to the water’s edge and was used as a ship to transport all the immortals south to Fujian. The other half remained on the mountainside. This huge rock standing on the mountainside is shaped like a sail. There are also four large characters on it: Wonders of Creation. On the side of the stone ship at the foot of the mountain is also engraved a seven-character poem by Liu Jiubiao, a tribute scholar in the Qing Dynasty: ‘Who split the stone wall into a boat, standing on the mountainside above the sea. Even if there are wind and waves, it will not be knocked down. Although there is no paddle or rudder, its potential energy is leisurely. It is difficult to provide transportation for merchants traveling north and south. Only allow the noble people to feast in summer and autumn. But laughing at the glue boat traveling on the Chu River, asking King Qi to move on his own initiative.’ Open all year round and open all day. The specific business status is subject to the opening situation on that day.
