A Delicious Human Taste Experience on the Slope of Maoshan Town, Ma Shan Slope - Have You Tried It?

Our hometown of Maoshan Town, west of Ma Shan Slope, has the tradition of climbing the slope to the temple on the sixteenth day of the first month to pray for blessings and make wishes.

Our hometown boasts abundant resources, a haven for medicinal herbs. The bounty of the mountains is told through the 'Great Square Stone Folk Songs' along the banks of the Merhe River.

On Ma Shan Slope, a strange thing appears before and after the Qingzhe Festival or after the rain – a dark, wood-ear-like substance.



It's known as 'Di Ji Lian,' lichen, a high-quality fungus cherished by our hometown people.

Local beauties are picking Di Ji Lian on Ma Shan Slope.





Lucky ones can fill a small bamboo basket.
It’s difficult to clean and contains a lot of impurities.

Scrambled eggs with Di Ji Lian and starch make a delicious egg stew, fragrant and tender, a thousand times more flavorful than seaweed soup. Dear friends, do you know it? Have you ever seen it and tasted its deliciousness?
