Introduction to Jingniang Cave: According to legend, when Zhao Kuangyin was young, Jingniang, a beautiful woman in Zhuozhou, was robbed by mountain bandits and brought to the village, forcing her to become the wife of the village. Jingniang refused to obey. After Zhao Kuangyin learned about it, he saw injustice on the road, drew his sword to help, killed the bandit leader, rescued Jingniang, and escorted Jingniang back home all the way. One day when he came to the foot of Paoma Ridge in the Taihang Mountains, the road was difficult to travel due to the dark night and cold weather. Zhao Kuangyin asked Jingniang to hide in a cave under Paoma Ridge to rest, while he sat on a bluestone outside the cave to guard her to prevent wild beasts from harming Jingniang. . Later this cave was called Jingniang Cave.
