Section 83 The sweetness of a couple in one day

Hello Guitang is the main hall of Heyuan and the official place for the owner of the park to interact with foreign affairs. Youguitang is the largest and most complete Qing Dynasty nanmu hall in Yangzhou. The He family has intersected in-law relationships with several famous families in the modern history of China. It was the place where "the banquet and travel permanently stayed in the Guiren's Pavilion" was at that time.

Here, the banana leaves are green, the peonies are red, and the mountains and rocks are rugged. The nanmu hall, which is spectacular and thick with materials, is located in the west of the front yard. The hall is called "Go Return", which shows Fan Zhongyan's "Yueyang Tower Notes" quotes the meaning of "I am a man, who will I return with me" and Tao Yuanming's "Go Back and Come" in "The Analects of Confucius".

Taking "Good Reward" as the hall reflects the He family's ideological will and value orientation of taking the role of her ancestors as the example and taking the act of her descendants as the pride, and happily joining the ranks of her descendants, and not being in harmony with the officialdom. The style is plain, elegant, ancient and profound, which is consistent with the master's temperament and cultivation.

The entire Nanmu Hall is divided into main hall, ear hall, and the main hall door. It combines Western architectural techniques and uses a whole piece of 4 square meters of glass, 9 mm thick, and the lighting effect is excellent! There are 13 Western-style wood-carved crescent doors on the corridor facing the south, with folded branches, peony flowers and peony flower baskets carved on it, symbolizing the owner's yearning for a happy, beautiful, auspicious and rich life.

The hall of a house is the face of this family. To a certain extent, it represents the strength and social status of this family. The He family has interlaced in-law relationships with several famous families in the modern history of China, so He Yuan naturally has the in-depth exchanges between "Gui Renxuan".

Yuguitang is also the largest and most well-preserved Nanmu Hall in Yangzhou. It incorporates Western architectural concepts and expression techniques into the traditional Chinese hall structure. The tall and solemn beam and column structure, coupled with transparent and ornate glass walls around, sweeping away the closure of the Chinese hall, old-fashioned and dull, and overflowing with an open, bright and bright atmosphere.

I visited the various residences in the courtyard area and found that they have a common feature, all with Western architectural characteristics. This is because the master of the country studied in Europe since he was a child and was influenced by foreign culture.

Since ancient times, Heyuan has had a large garden. It is said that if Heyuan is compared to a large garden, then the small garden is a stone mountain house in the garden. It is located in this small blue brick gatehouse on the east side of the south gate of Heyuan. It contains a long history and a unique scenery in the courtyard.

The stone mountain house is Heyuan Garden. The rockery structure in the garden is unique. The main peak is stacked on two stone houses. Two mountain roads from east to west lead to the stone house. The west road crosses the stream and the east road passes through the cave and enters the stone house. The main peak of the rockery is steep and vigorous, and the mountain surrounds the pool, with a sense of rushing and jumping momentum.

The original name of the Pishi Mountain House is "Shuangxie Garden". It is a stone-folding work by the master Shi Tao, a master of the painting world in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. It is unique and can be called the lonely version of the world. The Pishi Mountain House is the only remains of the Shitao's stone-made garden. Later, due to its abandonment, only the rockery's main peak stood against the wall. It was restored to allow the beautiful scenery to be reproduced.

Monk Shitao, common name Zhu Ruoji, was a descendant of the royal family of the Ming Dynasty. When he was just 10 years old, he suffered the pain of the country's destruction and family destruction. After the Ming Dynasty, he avoided disasters and disasters. He hid his name and became a monk. He loved mountains and rivers. He learned from nature and engaged in painting and sketching. He visited famous mountains and rivers throughout his life, "searched all the strange peaks to make drafts", understood all the vivid situations of nature, created a generation of fashion in Chinese painting, and opened up the Yangzhou painting school. He was the pioneer of the eight weirdos in Yangzhou.

Monk Shi Tao is not only a master of Chinese painting, but also a master of stone-making gardening. He ended his career at the age of 41 and lived in Yangzhou. He created a stone-making masterpiece stone-making mountain house. After his death, he was buried in Shugang, Yangzhou. It is also the only stone-making work left by Shi Tao on earth. Therefore, it is called the lonely book.

In the ninth year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, He Zhiqi bought a stone mountain house from a family named Wu and turned it into a part of He Garden. Entering the courtyard, the door of the "Shishi Mountain House" on the lintel was moved to make it with Shitao's ink marks. The design of this garden is based on Shitao's drawings, following the principles of nature and moving the natural interest, expressing the artistic conception of Shitao's poem "The water on all sides is vast, and there is no other thought in the fish; there is no saying that the sky and earth in the pond are small, and the table is rolled and placed in the hut."

The ancients said: "Yangzhou is famous gardens, and famous gardens are beautiful with stacking stones." There are no mountains in Yangzhou. The method of stacking stones on the flat ground is often used in gardens. It is very particular to add stones to the mountains and mountains, and high-level techniques must be used.

Split peaks and stacking stones should be a major feature of Yangzhou garden construction. The existing lake stone rockery in Heyuan maintains its basic appearance. Today, Yunluo and Koala have the opportunity to appreciate its style. The strange and erect stone peak in the western section of Hushan is the master's lonely human world. It is not natural but transcends nature, but it comes from artificial but ingenious work.

, as if he is arrogant and looks down upon all the heroes, is unprecedented in the gardens in Jiangnan, so it is praised by people as the "No. 1 mountain in the world" with stones covered with stones. In the belly of the rockery of the lonely man in the world, there are two stone rooms, an air-opening plank road above, and a deep waterfall pool below. People feel and appreciate Master Shi Tao's profound artistic attainments and landscape feelings from this lonely man in the world that has been standing for 400 years.

Although the stone mountain house does not cover a wide area, it enables the corridors, halls, pavilions, rockery and water to achieve an organic unity, giving people the artistic conception of tranquility in movement and movement in tranquility, and giving people infinite reverie in the limited world.

There is an interesting landscape in the garden - "mirror flowers and water moon". The so-called "mirror flowers" are a huge mirror embedded on the wall of the corridor beside the pool, which just reflects the blooming flowers in the garden.

At the same time, the mirror seems to be a transparent window. If you don’t distinguish it carefully, it is easy to mistakenly think that the mirror is the scenery outside the window wall. The entire garden view can be reflected in it through different angles, so that the scenery in the garden can be brought into your arms.

The so-called "water moon" is the wonder of "artificial moon" in the hills and valleys of the garden. During the day, you can see a bright moon in the pool. This is the light cleverly penetrates the caves of the rockery and reflects into the water, just like the reflection of the bright moon, so the moon can be seen during the day. The water in the pool is full of fun.

Far away from the mirror, there is a bright moon hidden in the pool at the foot of the Northeast Lake Mountain. It follows the viewers walking, from the full moon to the crescent moon, and it changes into various forms in turn. It has a unique taste and a scenery.

Yangzhou has been known as the Moon City since ancient times. There is a poem that says, "The world has three parts bright moon nights, and two parts rogues are Yangzhou." This place can be said to be the best place for Yangzhou to enjoy the moon during the day. A new inscription was engraved on the wall of the west corridor, and nine poems including Shitao's poems and essays were selected. There is a drop of spring in the foyer of the stone mountain room, forming a scene of "watching rain and watching the waterfall".

There is a half-blank bookstore in the west room, where you can read books by the window. Shi Tao once wrote a poem: "White clouds are confused by ancient caves. The flowing water is in the heart. There is a half-blank bookstore, and I know that it is a true immortal."

There are three water pavilions on the south side of the rockery pool, facing the main peak of the rockery. Here, there is a unique and mysterious piano, chess, books, and painting, which is very interesting. There is a spring well in the room in the water pavilion, accompanied by a piano table next to the well, and the spring water is gurgling. The sound of the piano is quiet, and it will make a sound when the wind blows, which is called "qin".

There is a locust tree stump in the east room next to the spring water. A chessboard is carved on the stump. The shape is ancient. When the owner is free, he plays tea with his friends here. It is so happy and for "chess".

A study was built through half a wall, which was for "books". A window was opened on the other wall. The window frame was engraved with bamboo patterns, and outside the window was a rockery. There was also bamboo planted around the rockery. In this way, a beautiful picture of bamboo and stone was added to the wall. Ancient literati liked bamboo and stone, which was for "painting".

The stone mountain house is called "the best mountain in the world". It is hidden in the abdomen of Master Shitao's lonely mantra in the world. There are two stone houses, and there are cave doors in and out of the east and west. The summer is hot and the sun is scorching, so this place has become an excellent place to nourish the heart and cool down.

If you come to Heyuan when the moon is in the sky, the Shuixin Pavilion will be melodiously singing, and the girl wearing a long-sleeved dance dress on the Lake Center Pavilion will pluck the strings of the piano, and the beautiful shadow will be reflected in the lake. The fish swimming in the lake can freely swim and be in it. How could you think this is Heyuan, it is clearly a fairyland in Yaotai.

Professor Chen Congzhou, a late famous garden expert in China, wrote a poem after visiting the garden: Jiangnan gardens are the best in the world, and the bright moon is in Yangzhou. The spring waves are green under the pavilion in the heart of the water. I can climb a bunch of buildings with a view of the scenery.

As night fell, the lights came on, and the ancient city of Yangzhou was covered with a mysterious veil. After koala and Yunluo visited Heyuan, they followed the instructions of the park tickets and walked two stops to the horse head of the Nanmen ruins, preparing for an ancient canal water sightseeing tour of 60 yuan per person.

Nanmen Matou is a pier for sightseeing on the ancient canal. Emperor Yang of Sui dug the canal and gained eternal infamousness. Qianlong followed the canal to travel south of the Yangtze River to enjoy the mountains and rivers, but was praised by later generations.

According to legend, when Qianlong went to Yangzhou to visit the south of the Yangtze River, the Royal Horse Head Sui Xiyuan Palace had just been completed and had no name yet, so Qianlong wrote the three words "Yu Horse Head". Qianlong believed that the word "Yu Horse Head" with a stone companion beside the word "Yu Horse Head", which would trip up and hinder the road ahead, which was unlucky. Therefore, this great emperor who created the prosperous era of Kanggan removed the stone of the character "Yu Horse Head", and thus became the "Yu Horse Head".

The pier at the South Gate is also written as "Nanmen Horse Head". I don't know if Qianlong did it. The huge rock at the South Gate Horse Head is located next to Longtouguan by the canal, and is located south of the Yongle Theme Hotel. The South Gate Horse Head is located in this water bay.

On the shore is a family living facing the canal. Back then, it was "thousands of sails passed by the sunken boat, and thousands of trees were springing in front of the sick trees". It was the home of ordinary people who witnessed the prosperity of salt transportation and canal transportation. The dragon boats and flower boats parked on the pier were bright and dazzling.

Not far away, a cruise ship carrying tourists drove in the canal. From west to east, we passed Kangshan Cultural Park, Heyuan, Wudaotai House, Puhading Cemetery, Dongguan Ancient Ferry, and Dawang Temple. This is a canal tour line with great cultural value.

While waiting for the boat, he was told that the cruise ship changed its route for some reason, and the southern pier was suspended. He had to hurriedly walk back to the Dongmen Site of the Tang and Song Dynasties of Dongguan Street, Yangzhou. Yangzhou was originally named Wuzhou, but was changed to Yangzhou in the ninth year of Kaihuang in the Sui Dynasty. In the seventh century, the Grand Canal connecting the north and south was built, and Yangzhou was located in a key water and land junction, becoming one of the centers for material transfer at that time.

After the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, the national economic center moved south, and Yangzhou's status became increasingly important. It was the Grand Governor's Office, the Huainan Jiedushi, the Huainan Road Interview Envoy, and the Salt and Iron Transport Envoy, and was one of the important ports for Sino-foreign transportation at that time.

The East Gate of Yangzhou City, the Tang and Song Dynasties, was built in the middle of the Tang Dynasty. The Five Dynasties, the Song Dynasties, the Ming and Qing Dynasties repaired the city gates and walls here, with an area of ​​about 16 square kilometers.

In the three archaeological excavations since the beginning, it was found that the city gate remains overlapping in the Tang, Five Dynasties, Northern Song and Southern Song periods were clearly overlapping in the Tang, Five Dynasties, Northern Song and Southern Song periods were about 15 to 20 meters thick.

According to the relevant records of the "Creation of Fast Style" in the Song Dynasty and combined with previous archaeological drilling discoveries, it is estimated that the city wall is about 10 meters high. Yangzhou built the Dongmen Ruins Park, and referring to the "Creation of Fast Style" in the Song Dynasty, the city wall and the mountaintop gate tower were rebuilt to reproduce the majestic posture of Yangzhou in the Song Dynasty's "magnificent over the long Huai River and the shape is superior to the southeast".

On the square of the East Gate Ruins, the city walls were covered with yellow flowers. Cao Qihui was waving his fists to promote the revolutionary principles to the masses, his eyes were bright, like a burning fire.

Letting the martyrs stand in the quiet square and letting them see the happy life they have won in bloody struggle is a comfort to the martyrs, and it also allows future generations to move forward in the martyrs' footsteps and create a better life.

Marco Polo was a merchant, traveler and explorer in Venice, Italy. During the Yuan Dynasty, he accompanied his father and uncle to China through the Silk Road and served as an official of the Yuan Dynasty.

After returning to Venice, Marco Polo was captured in a naval battle between Venice and Genoa, and dictated his travel experience in prison. Rustichen wrote "The Travels of Marco Polo" by Rustichen. His travels allowed many Europeans to understand and the Chinese nation.

When talking about Marco Polo, the thing that people in Yangzhou are most proud of is that this foreigner once served as the Yangzhou general manager for three years. Therefore, there is the Yangzhou Marco Polo Memorial Hall on Dongguan Street! I found this Yang Baqian on Dongguan Street, which is very distinctive. After buying several varieties of water chestnut cakes from this store, I felt that the osmanthus cake, walnut cake and sesame cake were the best.

It was first made and passed down to this day and is a crispy and delicious Han specialty pastry. It evolved from Bazhen Cake (Bzhen Cake has a history of 150 years in Xitang), and Bazhen Cake is made of eight Chinese medicinal materials.

The owner of this old store is very good at doing business and has a sweet mouth. He can taste it for free as long as he goes in. I feel embarrassed to not buy it. There are many time-honored brands in Yangzhou. If you don’t go to Yangzhou, you really don’t know that Yang Baqian’s water chestnut cake is so unforgettable.

Yangzhou is one of the first 24 historical and cultural cities announced by the country, and is also a general-class city. The history of the city construction in the past 2,500 years and the prosperity in history have created splendid urban civilization and left behind rich cultural heritage. Especially the ancient cities in the Ming and Qing dynasties still preserve a relatively complete historical style.

Yunluo and Koala saw that the ship was about to start, rushed to Dongmen Wharf and were told that they needed to take a boat at Benyimen Wharf. The Yangzhou section of the ancient canal is the oldest section of the entire canal. Now the canal in Yangzhou is mostly consistent with the ancient Hangou route more than 2,000 years ago, and is completely consistent with the canal dug by Emperor Yang of Sui. The total length from Guazhou to Baoying is 125 kilometers.

Among them, the Yangzhou section of the ancient canal is about 30 kilometers long from Guazhou to Wantou, forming the famous "Three Bays of Yangzhou". This section of the canal is the oldest, and can be said to be a star of historical sites and many cultural landscapes.

The Grand Canal is the longest artificial river in the world. It starts from Tongzhou in the north and ends at Xihu City in the south. It originates in the Spring and Autumn Period, completed in the Sui Dynasty, flourished in the Tang and Song Dynasties, took it straight in the Yuan Dynasty, dredged in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, connected six provinces and cities, connected five major water systems, with a total length of more than 1,700 kilometers. The Ancient Yangzhou Canal is a section of the North-South Grand Canal ordered by Emperor Yang of Sui to be dug.

Koala held Yun Luo's hand and saw it with relish. She liked delicious food and beautiful scenery. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
