The Monkey King Xianbao is located in the northwest of the West Coast Scenic Area. It is one of the top ten scenic spots in Sanqing Mountain and is also the best place to watch the sunset in the West Coast Scenic Area. The rock is about 7 meters high. From a distance, it looks like a monkey king sitting on the cliff, holding a treasure in his hand and looking at it intently. It is very naive. According to folklore, this Monkey King was Sun Wukong who caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace. Later, under the decree of Guanyin, he escorted Monk Tang to the Western Heaven to obtain Buddhist scriptures. His merits were perfect and he was named the “Victorious Buddha in Fighting” by the Tathagata Buddha. In order to live up to the title of “Dou Zhan” of the Buddha, Wukong came to Sanqing Mountain, held a treasure on the “Miao Gao Platform” in front of the cave and practiced the magic of subduing demons. Over time, he left behind the incarnation of the Monkey King. In fact, there are many famous mountains in China that have monkey-like stone scenes, but such similar ones as the “Monkey King Offering Treasures” are extremely rare.
