The story of Guan and Longmen Grottoes is not too long, it is very urgent。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。 Very urgent

The dragon gate was dug by Dayu in the water, and the legend of the fish leaping over the dragon gate also occurred here.

After more than 10 dynasties, it has been built for more than 1,400 years, making it the longest grotto in the world.

Legend has it that during that flood period, both Luoshui and Yishui were blocked, forming a large ocean, similar to a dammed lake, and of course the scale formed during that period was much larger than the dammed lake.

The people were in dire straits, and many were drowning. Dayu even suffered from floods, so he led the people to dredge Luoshui first, so that it was injected into the Yellow River, and Yishui was blocked in Longmen Mountain, so the Longmen Mountain was chiseled so that Yishui and Luoshui converged into the Yellow River, thus solving the flooding here.
