Introduction of Mazu Stone Statue in Fengshan

Fengshan Mazu stone statue was built in 1994. It is one of the largest Mazu artistic stone statues in Chinese mainland at present, and it is also a symbol of Shanwei Port. Designed by Professor Li Weisi, a master of modern sculpture in China, it is solemn but full of vitality. She is the goddess who goes to the world. She is close to us, which makes us feel her kind eyes, broad mind and a brave spirit. Fengshan is one of the famous scenic spots in Shanwei. Located on Pinqing Lake in the southeast of the city, it is the main scenic spot of the Golden Coast in eastern Guangdong. Although the mountain is not high, it is named because it looks like a phoenix spreading its wings. Ascending to the south China sea, water and sky are the same, and the boat is like a shuttle. Take a close look at the new face of the ancient town. There are many tall buildings and trees, which makes people feel relaxed and happy! The ancestral home of Shanwei people is mostly Fujian. In the late Ming Dynasty, Fengshan Mazu Tempel was built at the foot of Fengshan. Fishermen and businessmen have always believed in Mazu, and the incense is endless. It is the famous Mazu Tempel in Guangdong. With the overseas expansion of sea routes in Shanwei Port, Fengshan Mazu Tempel has also become a holy place for Shanwei people, compatriots from Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao and overseas Chinese to seek their roots. At the same time, Fengshan Mazu Tempel, as the evidence of the historical evolution of Shanwei Port, reflects the local ancient and modern fisheries, agriculture, commerce, transportation, culture and art, traditional customs and folk beliefs, and is the birthplace of Shanwei Port.
