The FengDong Rock

This is the entrance to the FengDong Rock.
Perched precariously on the edge of a cliff, it is a scenic spot for photography.
This Dongshan Fengdongshi Rock is actually a part of the ancient Tongshan city which was built in the Ming Dynasty. It used to be a fortress on a hill. The scenery here is very beautiful.
Another ancient temple is found here, the Guandi temple, built during the Ming Dynasty. It is renowned for its beautiful carvings and is listed as a State Protected Historic site.
Here is a close-up which shows the beautiful intricate carvings on the roof of the entrance to the temple.
There is also a hall to commemorate the God of Wealth ( Choi San ) who has been acknowledged as the creator of the abacus.
The grounds of the whole scenic spot are well-kept and there is an extended board walk which leads down to the beach..
This is a signpost showing the whole scenic area.
