When his colleague Yuan Zhen was whipped by the eunuch Liu Shiyuan, Emperor Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty Li Chun not only ignored Liu Shiyuan, but demoted Yuan Zhen to Tongzhou (today's Dachuan City, Sichuan). Bai Juyi wrote three times to defend him. In the 10th year of Yuanhe (AD 815), he was persecuted for writing a letter to the government and exposing the murder of Prime Minister Wu Yuanheng within the imperial court. He was demoted to the Sima of Jiangzhou (Jiangxi Jiujiang). In the fourteenth year of Yuanhe (AD 819), Bai Juyi was promoted from the Sima of Jiangzhou to Zhongzhou ( The governor of Zhongxian County, Chongqing, his younger brother Bai Xingjian went with him to take office, and unexpectedly met Yuan Zhen in the Xiling Gorge. While having a banquet at the mouth of the gorge, he accidentally discovered a strange natural (karst) cave, wandering there, and never stopped (1 p.m. to 3 p.m.) to Xu Shi (7 p.m. to 9 p.m.) "Love Can't Go".
It was proposed by Yuan Zhen: "It is difficult for us to meet each other, and it is not easy to find this place... Please each write twenty rhymes of ancient poems and write them on the stone wall." Bai Juyi wrote a "preface" to record it, "Preface" "At the end, it says, "The three of us started the tour, so it is called the Sanyou Cave." Sanyou Cave got its name from this, after the Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi and three other people discovered the cave. Famous writers Ouyang Xiu, Su Xun, Su Shi, Su Che, Huang Tingjian, Ye Heng, and Lu You of the Song Dynasty; famous writers Wang Shizhen, Liu Yiru, Gong Shaoren, Lu Xianbang, and literati from the Republic of China period came one after another, leaving behind a rich legacy. Poems and songs. There are more than 100 original cliff stone carvings, poems, poems and poems about Sanyoudong written in Kai, Li, Zhuan, Xing and Cao. Later, due to obliteration over the years, erosion by wind and rain, and losses during the "Cultural Revolution", more than 60 pieces from the Song Dynasty still exist, which are precious cultural and historical materials of our country.
On October 8th, the fifth year of Emperor Kaozong’s reign in the Southern Song Dynasty (AD 1169), Lu You lived with the army. When he entered Shu, he passed through Yiling. I tied the boat and went up to the Sanyou Cave with the disciples and the masters. I stepped on the rocks for two miles, but I couldn't set foot in the dangerous place..." In the Sanyou Cave. Lu You was filled with emotion when he saw the inscriptions by Huang Tingjian, Ouyang Xiu and other literati. After enjoying himself, he took the spring water from the pool and made tea. The water was very strange and the tea tasted delicious. The small pool was close to the mountain and the stream. Lu You lingered over it and wrote "Under the Rock in Front of Sanyou Cave" The water in the pool was very strange, so I took the fried tea and put it on the rock wall next to the pool. From then on, this unknown mountain spring was called "Luyou Spring" by the world and has been passed down to this day.
In the second year of Jingyou (1035 AD) of Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty, Song Qingji, a learned and virtuous scholar, was appointed as the magistrate of Xiazhou. He carried out a series of folk custom reforms and repairs of streets and city gates in Yiling County. Yichang The transformation of thatched cottages into tiled houses also began in this period, in the third year of Jingyou (1036 AD). Song Qingji built a pavilion at Jiangjin outside the West Gate of Yiling, named it "Zhixi", and asked the writer Ouyang Xiu, who was demoted to Yiling as county magistrate in May of that year, to write an article "Zhixi" for the pavilion. "Xiazhou Zhixi Pavilion" was written by Huang Tingjian, a famous calligrapher in the Song Dynasty. The pavilion is shown in text. This small pavilion became famous thanks to Ouyang Xiu's pen. It was later listed as one of the three scenic spots in Yiling. Zhixi Pavilion Since its establishment more than 900 years ago, it has experienced two relocations and ups and downs. In 1981, it was rebuilt at Wangxiang Terrace on the north peak of Xiling Mountain.

Today I accompanied my classmates on a trip and went to the famous scenic spot in Yichang - Sanyou Cave~
I went there when I was very young, but it has been a long time and the impression is no longer deep. , I went there again, and the feeling was different~
When I was a child, my impression of Sanyou Cave was that it was desolate, there was nothing interesting, it was just a cave, it was so boring~ I ran from the city to the suburbs, and There are weeds everywhere and the management is very backward. Why go there?
Looking at it again, I feel that my impression of Sanyou Cave has completely changed, and it seems that I can realize its true value.
I have never felt that there are any celebrities in Yichang. Except for one poet - Qu Yuan; It seems that Sanyou Cave exists. Bai Juyi, Yuan Zhen, Su Shi, and Ouyang Xiu have been there and left traces to tell future generations that they not only visited Sanyou Cave but also told future generations that Sanyou Cave is not just a cave. Youdong is a place full of literati and ink carvings. It is not only a cave, it has thousands of years of cultural heritage. It not only makes a stone cave civilized, but also makes Yichang a place that celebrities yearn for. This is Sanyou's What a cultural connotation~
In fact, looking at this cave now, it is tall, wide, and majestic. Walking in does not make you depressed, but it broadens your horizons. I did not expect that caves are not only small and closed, but also have caves. wide. There are still small caves where you can continue to explore, but I did not disturb the tranquility of the ancients, I just wanted to enjoy their feelings~
This is a written description of "Sanyou Cave was born on a cliff, and the terrain is It is steep and can be reached by a plank road. It is shaped like a canopy, warm in winter and cool in summer. The cave is about 30 meters deep, 20 meters wide and 10 meters high. "Looking at Sanyou Cave on the other side, it is reflected by the green trees. The long branches are fluttering, like the rain and mist lingering after it rains. It feels like a fairyland. The ancients were so amazing~~~~
On the other side of the cave is the Yangtze River. The Yangtze River rushes past, taking away thousands of years of history. The ever-changing Chinese culture, culture and nature are combined here. Seeing culture and feeling the Yangtze River, the true connotation of Chinese culture seems to be in it: the broad, majestic and magnificent Yangtze River and the quiet, elegant and tranquil Sanyou Cave. Chinese people The endless life and cultural history of Yichang are perfectly combined in Sanyou Cave. History continues from here~
Sanyou Cave may really need to be visited three times to truly Feel its beauty, feel its environment, and feel its true connotation~
Next time, invite three people to visit Sanyou Cave again to truly experience the meaning of Sanyou~
Qu Yuan and Xing Yin Pavilion
Located on a small island in the middle of Tingtao Scenic Area in Wuhan East Lake Scenic Area, there is a three-story square pavilion-style building built in 1955 in memory of the great patriotic poet Qu Yuan. The name of the pavilion is taken from "The Fisherman of Chu Song", "Qu Yuan was released, swam in the rivers and lakes, and chanted by the riverside". A three-character plaque with "Xingyin Pavilion" inscribed by Guo Moruo hangs on the pavilion. In front of the pavilion stands a full-length statue of Qu Yuan, which is 3.6 meters high and the base is 3.2 meters high. As the leading part of the East Lake Quzi Cultural Park, it connects East Lake with the greatest historical figures of Chu State.
According to research, Qu Yuan visited the present-day Wuhan area. "Nine Chapters Ai Ying" "Go to the old capital and go far away, follow the Jiangxia to go into exile" The river in it is the Yangtze River, Xia is the lower reaches of the river, and the old capital is Ying (Jianling). This describes Qu Yuan's route when he left Ying, which was along the Han River to the Yangtze River. The Han River merged into the Yangtze River, which is now Wuhan, and then along the Yangtze River "the boat floated down, went up to Dongting and went down the river." Therefore, Qu Yuan's journey passed through Wuhan. "After the first summer, I float to the west, but I don't see it when I look at Longmen." Xia Shou is where the Han River flows into the Yangtze River. "Climb the big tomb to see the distance and chat to soothe my worries." The high ground in the water is called a tomb, and some people think it is today's Turtle Mountain. "Nine Chapters: Crossing the River" "Riding on Yingzhu and looking back at the mood of autumn and winter." The small islet in the water is called Zhu. Some people believe that it is in the Yangtze River not far upstream of Snake Mountain. Judging from Qu Yuan's series of arias about the scenery in Wuhan, Qu Yuan not only passed through this place, but also lingered here for a while. Because of this, some people have always set up a Qinglie Temple in the area of ??today's Wuchang to offer sacrifices. Qu Yuan.
Xingyin Pavilion is the Jie Pavilion commemorating Qu Yuan where Qu Yuan's footprints are everywhere.
Qu Yuan is the founder and main author of Chu Ci. The 25 Chu Ci in 7 volumes including "Li Sao", "Nine Chapters", and "Nine Songs" are the precious treasures left by Qu Yuan to mankind, shining with culture. With the glory of celebrity, people admire Qu Yuan's patriotism and his pinnacle song.
Qu Yuan was a poet and a politician. He pursued truth and justice, loved the people, had rich and persistent emotions, and died in tears by throwing himself into the river. Qu Yuan loved local culture, wrote Chu language, composed Chu sounds, recorded Chu places, and named Chu things. He also actively absorbed the advantages of foreign cultures, allowing Chu culture to grow and sublimate on the basis of retaining its characteristics. Qu Yuan can be called the soul of the Chinese nation.
