Riguang
Rock is also called Moving Rock. It is the
summit of Gulang Islet. On the mountain,
huge and precipitous rocks form many caves
and gullies. Pavilions are hidden among
green trees. If you go up the steps, you
will come to the Lotus Flower Convent first,
where a huge rock named ''A Piece of Tile',
sitting on the top forms a hall below.
On the large rocks beside
the convent are inscribed ''Wonderland of
Gulang,'' and ''Number One along the Egret
River". Behind the convent are ''the
Dragon's Cave of the Egret River,'' ''the
Cave of Summer Resort'' and there scenic
spots. Close to the convent is the historical
site of Zheng Chenggong's Dragon Head Mountain
Fastness and the platform for directing
the raining of his seamen. Coming to the
top of the mountain, you can see the beautiful
view of the sea and the mountains. The Xiamen
Island and Gulangyu, Dadan and Erdan are
all presented before your eyes.
