石门秋色 泼红嵌黛妍丽多姿

石门坊位于临朐县城西南9公里许深山入口处。看到两峰耸立，对峙如门，这就进入石门坊了。

石门坊群峰环翠，壁立千仞，嶙峋夔石，青者如黛，白者如垩，峭者 如削，剥者如脱。红叶黄栌遍布山岗峡谷，每值深秋，霜打红叶，泼染山红；丛栌间柏，漫红嵌黛，丹青丽雅，瑰丽如画。重阳时节，中外游客 慕名观赏石门红叶，络绎不绝。

石门山陡崖石壁题"晚照"两个行书大字，气势浑厚流畅，乃清康熙四年衣于帝书。光绪十二年，山石脱落，"晚照"崩圮。同年，衣繡桐、衣文俊重刊，字迹流畅有力。山壁之下，绿树成荫，光线幽暗，待日西斜，残阳返照，一束光柱穿过特殊的山势，透过林隙，"晚照"光彩顿现，若明镜高悬幽谷，奇特壮观，此为"骈邑石门晚照残"的佳句所由。"晚照"石崖下面，有涓涓溪流，汇于小池，池水清澈。当夕阳直射"晚照"，"金纸"墨迹，倒映池中，微风漾漪，其景特异。

登上石门山东顶，极目西眺，屏翠迭嶂，逶迤跌宕。据说自清嘉庆年间，石门坊始见黄栌，入民国后，黄栌逐渐成林，布满山峦。

今年深秋，霜打栌叶，遍山红透。间以苍松翠柏与黄叶映衬，远远望去，如泼红嵌黛，妍丽多姿。

Shimenfang Mountain is locat- ed in the southwest of Linqu County， about nine kilometers away from the downtown area. At the entrance to the mountain stand two peaks facing each other just like a stone gate， from which comes the name of Shimenfang， meaning stone gate archway.

With the descent of frost， the leaves of smoke trees on the mountain become red in the late autumn， turning the whole mountain into a sea of red leaves dotted with some green pines and cypresses as well as the yellow leaves of other trees. From a distance， Shimenfang looks like a beautiful world of colors， attracting endless tourists home and abroad to appreciate its gorgeous autumn scenery of red leaves every year.
