雞足山

雲南賓川

又名九曲山、九重岩。位於雲南省大理白族自治州賓川縣西北50公里處,此山一頂三支,儼如雞足,故名;最高處金頂海拔3,240公尺。雞足山佛教濫觴於南詔(752~902),顯於大理(937~1253),興於元(1271~1368),盛於明(1368~1644)。一九二○年代,雞足山凋敝,幸得虛雲和尚極力修復,重振法鼓,並於一九二九年在金頂重建楞嚴寶塔,使雞足山大為增色。中國自古有「雞山奇秀甲天下,與峨眉、九華、天台、雁蕩為伯仲」之譽。明代以「峨眉、牛首、天目、五台、雞足臚列,並稱佛教五大名山」。岩上有石門,名「華首」,傳說是大迦葉持衣鉢以待彌勒下生處。《滇釋記》載,淨月入雞足山在明歌坪建寺,掘地得碑,有迦葉示現云云。
 雞足山占地面積2,822公頃。其間,梵剎林立,殿堂如雲,最盛時有大寺三十六、小寺七十二、靜室一百六十七,以祝聖、石鐘、迦葉、大覺、華嚴、放光、寂光、悉檀諸寺最為宏闊,號稱「八大寺」,另有建於百丈懸岩上的金頂寺及高達40公尺的楞嚴寶塔等。附屬建築有亭台樓閣、軒堂廊榭、牌坊塔幢二百三十餘座,池塘橋梁隨行隨見。大覺寺於近世改稱虛雲寺,以紀念虛雲老和尚重建功德。
