Walking into this world-famous garden, the heavy rings of Cooper on the shore of Fuhai are growing silently. On both sides of the road, locust trees with bent branches, willow trees with drooping heads and low eyebrows, and persimmon forests covered with small lanterns all snuggle up to each other in the residual autumn colors. Blame his misfortune and provoke him. Even the beautiful Huang Ju is mourning the end of an era.
The sight along the way made me feel a little heavy. But in the mother's eyes, any sculpture in Yuanmingyuan is indeed an unparalleled masterpiece of God. In the former Yuanmingyuan, western architectural art was introduced and Europa-style buildings were built. There are countless gold and silver utensils, jade jewelry, famous paintings and ancient books in the park ... The lakes in Yuanmingyuan vary in size, and the rocks, trees, pavilions and islands on the shore have their own unique layout, just like the misty landscape of Jiangnan Mountain.
The Yuanmingyuan is surrounded by lakes and mountains, and the mountains are complex and interlocking. One park, one district, one stone and one scene are wonderful. An ancient beauty in the corner, a strange stone of Panasonic, is like a page of painting that the painter does not pay attention to. Reality and reality set each other off into interest, with far-reaching implications and deep talents. It seems that Yuanmingyuan is not only a masterpiece of ancient architecture, but also an unparalleled treasure house and art hall. It is also the pure land of the spiritual world and the essence of garden culture. No wonder people often say that Greece has the Parthenon, Egypt has the pyramids, Rome has the Colosseum and the East has the Summer Palace. The Summer Palace is probably the Yuanmingyuan.
All the way, I listened to my mother telling me about the past glory of Yuanmingyuan, until the broken stone pillars appeared in our field of vision and the footsteps stopped abruptly. Facing the familiar ruins in middle school textbooks and in front of the screen. My mother and I are both serious and silent. It suddenly occurred to me that I had been to Yuanmingyuan when I was a child. It's been a long time, but it's hard to forget. It happened when I was twenty-one years old. In Yuanmingyuan, an old guide with a crane hair pointed to broken walls and said to a group of British people, "This is the trace left by your ancestors on the stone tablet. We in China have always ruled the world with courtesy and sympathy. We don't care about what happened in the past, but that doesn't mean we will forget this humiliating history. Think of it as a painful memory, which will be remembered forever. If such a war happens again in the future, our territory will be threatened again. As China people, we will never stand idly by. Now that China is strong, we can't suffer such humiliation any more! " The Englishman didn't ask questions, buried his head, and the big stone column squatted there. Everything seemed very quiet.
I admire the old tour guide's humble words in English, as if an ancient national wound was bleeding, and as if he revealed an unstoppable and indestructible national soul. As a China native, the remains of Youzhou, an ancient capital with a long history of 5,000 years, have been neglected and forgotten by us. An old man still clearly remembers the sadness left by this land!
Yuanmingyuan, a very distant and quite familiar name. It is a wound that is difficult to heal in the history of China and a bitter memory that China people can't bear to look back. /kloc-The disaster in Yuanmingyuan more than 0/00 years ago, like a shiny lettering, was heavily branded on the lettering in my memory. 1860 10 10 On 6 October, the British and French allied forces rushed into Yuanmingyuan, and a few invulnerable Qing soldiers lost World War I, and the minister of garden protection committed suicide by throwing himself into the river. 101October 18, a group of British and French allied cavalry armed with live ammunition and torches were mighty and full of flames, and the garden was in ruins ... 150 years in Qing dynasty, it was a fusion of Chinese and western architectural arts, and gathered countless cultural relics, fine works of art and splendid palace gardens. The final outcome turned to rubble in the fire? !
At first, it was hard for us to imagine how beautiful this famous historical garden was. Only in the book did I read that the British priest said, "You must have a talented person such as a poet, painter, art connoisseur and China scholar to describe the scenery incisively and vividly and give you some ideas ..." I don't know what charm the Yuanmingyuan Art Palace once had, except for a letter written by Mr. Yu, a missionary, to French relatives at 1747. Because I've never seen anything like it anywhere else. The diversity and diversity of architectural forms in China make us admire their rich talents. By contrast, we are too poor and lifeless ... "
Yuanmingyuan, a historical site, has left many sorrows for China people. ...
Yuanmingyuan, the treasure house of the past, left a lot of imagination space for China people. ...
The sky is getting thicker and thicker, and the outline of the ruins is slanting under the setting sun, which is vigorous and powerful, and outlines a deep and sad shadow. The smoke seems to be shrouded in broken walls, and the broken walls and columns are desolate in the open space. At this point, my eyes are a little sad and melancholy. Someone once told me that the best time to visit the site is late autumn and early winter. The faint sunset, a person, sitting alone under the cold stone steps, listening to the autumn wind rustling, watching the fallen leaves dance. Like ancient times, like happiness, like sadness, like dreams, like waking up, the majesty of imperial power in the depths, the chaos and looting under the mud, the taste in my heart is beyond words.
