My friends and I spent an afternoon and the next morning touring and trekking the Longhu Mountain but we managed to cover only some of the key spots. Shangqing Palace, first built in East Han Dynasty, the place where the Taoist Master, Zhang Tianshi made pills of immortality in the middle period of East Han dynasty and the place where all gods received their official ranks is one of those places one should not miss when visiting this park which has o­ne hundred and eight natural and artificial sights. The entire construction and layout of the Shangqing Palace is of the Eight Diagrams with a two-eaved roof and red door, showing the unique style of Taoist temple. Each of us walked the "Hexagon Matrix", lines on the ground which one walks from a starting point and ends at a designated point. The starting and ending points are the same for anyone who walks but the paths are different. We then had our "paths" read which much to our surprise, our past and present seemed to be true. The future we have yet to see. It was worth the fun.
