Love legends about butterflies

You can refer to the following: butterfly spring's legend-a long time ago, butterfly spring was called bottomless pool, and there were two fathers and daughters living by the pool. The daughter's name is Wen Gu. She is as smart and beautiful as a golden flower. When Wen Gu grew up, she and hunter Xia Lang made a lifelong commitment. Later, Wen Gu was taken away by the landlord, and Xia Lang desperately saved him when he came back from hunting. Unexpectedly, the officers and men chased after each other and drove them to nowhere. They all jumped into the bottomless pool. Suddenly, there was thunder and lightning and a storm. After the rain cleared, a pair of beautiful butterflies flew out of the pool, followed by countless small butterflies. It was 15 in April of the lunar calendar. Since then, on this day every year, countless beautiful butterflies will gather here to tell this touching love story. This is the famous "Butterfly Club".

In fact, as early as 300 years ago, Xu Xiake wrote in his travel notes: "The difference between butterfly spring has long been known."

Butterfly spring, which Xu Xiake has heard about for a long time, has "three unique skills": spring, butterfly and tree.

"Spring": The water in butterfly spring is soaked from the sand layer in the crevices of rocks, and the water quality is particularly clear. As soon as it came out of the water, it gathered in a pool without any pollution. In recent years, the spring water gushing from butterfly spring has been treasured by park managers in three pools, one larger than the other, for people to watch. The largest pond is about 10 mu. Butterfly spring has changed from one pool in the past to four pools now, which is the most conspicuous landscape of butterfly spring Park.

Butterfly: There are many kinds of butterflies in butterfly spring. Every spring from March to May, butterflies are as big as palms and as small as bees, and strings of them are hung on acacia trees by the spring. The most grand one was April 15, which was designated as a butterfly club by Bai people. Xu Xiake once described it in his travels: "There are thousands of real butterflies hanging from the top of the tree to the surface of the spring with their feet hooked." Guo Moruo, a famous poet, wrote a poem when he visited butterfly spring in Dali in the autumn of 196 1, "There are thousands of butterflies flying in butterfly spring, with their heads and tails connected several meters, and their inflorescences hanging from the trees." One said that the butterfly was hooked with its feet, and the other said that the butterfly was connected end to end. Neither scholar saw the spectacle of butterflies hanging in strings under the tree in spring, because their time was different. Which statement is closer to the details depends on the careful observation of tourists. If you happen to miss the butterfly club, don't feel sorry. The newly-built Butterfly Pavilion to the south of butterfly spring truly reproduces the ecology, species and butterfly culture related to butterflies in butterfly spring, and provides valuable information for tourists who can't visit the Butterfly Club to understand the wonders of butterfly spring.

"Tree": In butterfly spring Park, there is an environmental protection placard that says, "The beauty of butterfly spring lies in the green, please take good care of paddling". This sentence truly tells the beauty of butterfly spring, which not only benefits from the newly planted trees such as Pterocarya crassipes and Christmas trees along the way, but also benefits from the pine forest, Berlin, palm forest, tea forest, azalea forest and bamboo forest all over the mountain after the spring, and also benefits from butterfly spring. This acacia tree near butterfly spring, whenever it blooms in early April, its petals open like butterflies during the day and close at night, giving off bursts of fragrance. The poet vividly praised the butterfly as a "flying flower", while the flower of this acacia tree is a "still butterfly". During the butterfly festival, flowers and butterflies dance, which is a great spectacle of butterfly spring.

In the hearts of Bai people, butterfly spring is a fountain symbolizing love and loyalty. Every Butterfly Festival, young Bai men and women from all over the world will come here to "throw stones to test the water depth" and find their Mr. Right with songs.
