Interpretation of Yangzhou Slender West Lake Tour Guide Words

Three tourists: If the West Lake in Yangzhou is compared to a plump and charming young woman, then the West Lake in Yangzhou can be compared to a charming girl, because the West Lake in Hangzhou gives people a graceful charm, while the West Lake in Yangzhou gives people a gentle and shy affection. Over the years, her unique charm has not only fascinated Yangzhou people, but also fascinated many scholars and celebrities at home and abroad. A word "thin" has attracted many poets' quatrains. In his early years, Deng Tuo toured the lake, admiring the beautiful scenery of the lake and mountains, and happily wrote a poem: "Banqiao Song played the ancient Yangzhou, and I came to Yangzhou for three days; It is better to go to the West Lake to lose weight, and the scenery is beautiful. "

Dahongqiao

"Yangzhou is good, the first is Hongqiao. Three feet of green rain, cherry red is broken, and radiation is everywhere. "This is the famous Hongqiao in Yangzhou history. "This bridge is one of the 24 scenic spots in Yangzhou. It was built during the worship period of the Ming Dynasty, spanning Hubao Lake. The transformation is to bathe with smoked herbs at the water's edge on the third day of the third lunar month every year to eliminate the unknown. At first, people imitated Wang Xizhi to rebuild Lanting, and later it gradually became a meeting of literature and wine. In its heyday, the beautiful scenery of Hongqiao attracted many literati to give directions and discuss poems here. During the Kangxi period, Wang Yuyang presided over the restoration of Hongqiao, and scholars gathered. His "red bridge flies across the water, and the railing is red." "Under the bridge in the afternoon, the smell of clothes is too urgent" is even more popular, and even Ganlong once wrote poems to appreciate the scenery of Hongqiao. "

The magnificent building in front of us now is the south gate of today's Slender West Lake. The south gate of Slender West Lake is like a barrier, which makes Shimada Hanzo of Slender West Lake half exposed, just like that beautiful woman "still hides half her face behind the guitar so that we can't see it, but we called for it a thousand times before she came to us". The three-character plaque of "Slender West Lake" on the cornice of the entrance hall was written by the late Yangzhou calligrapher Sun Long. A pair of threshold couplets on the porch post reads: "Heaven and earth are selfless, spring flowers and autumn moons are reserved, and I am the master in my spare time, not in spring." The lakes and mountains look much better. Who decorated Jiege's pavilion? It's really different everywhere. "This was written by a poet in Yangzhou in the late Qing Dynasty, by his daughter, a famous calligrapher in Yangzhou. With this pair of ancestral couplets, the scenery of Slender West Lake has also added some strength. A few years ago, the highlight of the TV series A Dream of Red Mansions was filmed here. Let's enjoy the scenery of Slender West Lake as Yuan Fei did.

Long Beach Spring Willow-Xiao Fang Pavilion-Taohuawu

"Spring willow in Long Beach is the most reluctant, and crossing Hongqiao is charming." It is most interesting to go to Chang Di to see spring willows in spring. Walking by the lake, looking at three steps and one peach, five steps and one willow, I wonder if tourists have a heart-warming feeling. In the spring breeze, peach blossoms are in full bloom and willow trees are dancing. The long beach is like a gallery, covered with colorful bead curtains. It can be said that "the clothes are wet and the peach blossoms are raining, and the face is not cold." People say that "the most affectionate thing is the willow in Yangzhou". Yangzhou has been Liucheng since ancient times. The ancients described Lvyangcheng as Yangzhou. It is said that Yang Guang, the emperor of Yang Di, came to Yangzhou and ordered the construction of the North-South Grand Canal. After the river was dug, Yu Shiqi, a bachelor of Hanlin, suggested planting willows on both sides of the river, which could not only shade the sun, but also protect the dam. The emperor also personally brought a willow tree and named it "Yang". Later, people called it willow.

Rara Xv

At the end of the Long Beach is Xu Yuan, the ancestral temple of Xu Baoshan, a warlord during the Revolution of 1911. The son of "Xu Yuan" on his forehead was written by Ji Lianggong, the filial son of Yangzhou in the late Qing Dynasty, and the model was written by Xu Wei. The garden was cursive. Using the outer frame of the garden, Xu Baoshan's nickname "Xu Tiger" was skillfully put forward inside, which became an anecdote in Yangzhou.

Xu Garden, named Ancestral Temple, is actually a very delicate garden. Standing outside the garden, the moon cave door is like a picture frame, and entering the garden is the Yellowstone lotus pond. There is a pavilion across the pool, with a listening pavilion in the middle, which means "two orioles sing green willows and a row of egrets go up to the sky". Covered with nanmu, the museum is carved with patterns of pine, bamboo and plum, which is a masterpiece of Yangzhou wood carving. There is a tablet pavilion in the east, in which there is an inscription written by Mr. Wu Entang of Yizheng for Xu Yuan. The west of the pavilion is "Spring Grass Pond Song Pavilion", and Xie Lingyun means "Spring Grass grows in the pond". The two iron pots in front of the door were water-saving objects in Liang Xiao more than 500 years ago. It can be seen that Yangzhou's smelting industry is developed and Yangzhou's economy is prosperous. There is a pavilion, a pavilion, a pavilion in this small garden. There is winding water outside, and there are ponds, flowers, trees and bamboo stones inside, just right. This garden is the first one to enter the main entrance of Slender West Lake. Visitors will feel the exquisiteness of Jiangnan Garden as soon as they enter. People who have never been to Slender West Lake think this is the style of Slender West Lake. In fact, this is the painstaking efforts of gardeners, giving people the feeling that "mountains and rivers are difficult to recover, and there is another village in the dark."

No.4 bridge misty rain

Looking east at Xu Yuan, it is one of the 24 scenic spots in the northern suburbs of Qing Dynasty, and it is a "misty rain four bridges" building. Whenever the mountains are rainy, the scenery here is "Four Bridges Flying Smoke". When you climb the building, you can see four spring wave bridges with different colors and shapes, Dahongqiao, Changchun Bridge and lianhua bridge. In the misty rain, the four bridges are far and near, bold and unrestrained, high and low. At that time, Qianlong loved the scenery here very much, and wrote poems and poems many times, and wrote a poem "Interesting Garden" by himself.

Passing Xu Yuan, standing on the small Hongqiao, I suddenly felt suddenly enlightened. As far as the west is concerned, it is the most open scenic spot of Slender West Lake. Let's get better and better and appreciate the graceful charm of Slender West Lake.

Xiaojinshan-Fengting-Benji Bookstore

We went through the back door of the Xu family, crossed the small Hongqiao and came to Xiaojinshan. So how was Xiaojinshan formed? It turned out that in the Qing Dynasty, salt merchants dug a new river in Lianhualing in order to welcome the arrival of the emperor, and piled up the Xiaojinshan in front of them with the excavated river mud. At that time, plum blossoms were planted all over the mountain, and the fragrance was overflowing, so it was called "Meiling Spring is Deep". It is said that at the beginning, piles of earth piled up into mountains and piles collapsed repeatedly, and the supervisor was dizzy with anxiety after three years. Once in their sleep, they saw Guan Yu and his soldiers playing plum blossom piles, hitting the piles in the middle of the river in droves, and then piling up heaped-up mountains. He suddenly woke up and immediately imitated this method. Ten days later, he really piled up into a "small golden mountain". Later, when Gan Long visited here, he heard about it and was very happy. He took the opportunity to say: "The emperor's southern tour touched the god of heaven and earth, and even Guan Di took the initiative to serve the emperor." Gan Long is happier, that is, life has been rewarded. In order to thank Guan Yu for his dream, Cheng Zhishuan specially built the Guandi Temple under Xiaojin Mountain.

By the way, some people may wonder why Yangzhou always quotes people's names. There is a West Lake in Hangzhou, called Slender West Lake. There is a golden hill in Zhenjiang, which is called Xiaojinshan here. It turns out that people close to you skillfully take the thinness of the Thin West Lake and the smallness of the Xiaojin Mountain, and point out that the beauty of Yangzhou gardens lies in "borrowing", which is really "borrowing a corner of the West Lake, which is worthy of boasting because of its thinness; If you move to Jinshan for a while, why borrow it? "

This strange stone in front of us is a relic of the Huashi class in the Song Dynasty. In ancient times, there were statistics on the number of transport ships, with ten ships as a class. Flowers and stones are transported by boat, which is called flower stone class. Song Huizong, the Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, was very fond of planning consciousness. On the occasion of his 60th birthday, he decided to build a Wanshou Mountain in Kaifeng, the capital. This stalactite from Guangxi was left in Yangzhou during transportation because of the southward migration of nomadic people.

Next, we climbed the steps along Wanyan Mountain Road, and the wind pavilion was on the ridge. This plaque was inscribed by Ruan Yuan, a famous poet and scholar in Qing Dynasty. The mountain is not high, but it is horizontal, and the water is not deep, but it is tortuous. At this time, overlooking Xiaojin Mountain, there is a wind pavilion on the top, a Guanyin Pavilion in the middle, and various halls on the bottom, which are very hierarchical. The surrounding clear water is wide and narrow, straight and curved, which makes people feel endless and full of natural potential.

Yangzhou is an ancient city and a famous historical and cultural city. Slender West Lake is known as the "Hanmo Garden", which shows its literary and artistic characteristics everywhere. Now we come to the piano room built by the water. There are two cypress trees in front of the door, both over 200 years old. The trees are several feet higher than the eaves, and the cages are green. Please follow me to the courtyard of the piano room. Please look at the stone forehead of the vase door in the east. This was written by Deng, a great calligrapher in Qing Dynasty. Behind the piano room is the wooden label bookstore. Tourist: Please keep quiet. Why? Because this is a place to study, it is natural to be quiet. There are 15 old osmanthus trees in the park, which are intoxicating when they bloom, also known as "Guiyuan", and Muhui is another name for osmanthus.

Moon landscape

It stands to reason that there must be a studio after the piano room, chess room and bookstore. The egg chess room has only a moon view, but no studio. The moon view of the chess room is the studio. It turns out that China's poetry art and painting art both emphasize the combination of reality and fiction, especially painting, which is even more "unexpected" and picturesque. Gardeners also emphasize the combination of reality and fiction. If the moon scene is changed into a studio, it will be too realistic, too boring and too vulgar, and Yangzhou Slender West Lake will not be called a calligraphy garden.

In the view of enjoying the moon, the contents of Haimei furniture carving in Qing Dynasty are all related to enjoying the moon. Those lotus flowers, mandarin ducks, lotus leaves and lotus festivals are all natural and vivid, and they are representative works of Yangzhou wood carving technology.

be reborn

Dead wood meets spring is a garden sketch, which is two pieces of wood and stones, snuggling up to each other, with an area of up to 6 meters and a stump bonsai. There was a ginkgo tree in Yangzhou in the Tang Dynasty, which has a history of thousands of years. After being struck by lightning, the two pieces of wood fell from the middle. Later generations embalmed them and moved them here. Lingxiao is planted in the back. It is a vine. If it is summer, the orange morning glory is expelled from the top of the wood and stone. It looks red from a distance, thinking that the number is alive again. It is called "turning decay into magic", hence the name ".

Five pavilion bridge

"The bridge always wins when the water is full." Wu Ting Bridge is not only a symbol of the Slender West Lake in Yangzhou, but also a symbol of Yangzhou city. There are five pavilions on the bridge, so everyone calls it "Wu Ting Bridge". This bridge was built by Yanguan Peak to welcome Ganlong's second southern tour (1757). Because it looks like a blooming lotus, it is also called "lianhua bridge". The total length is 55.5 meters, and the bridge foundation plane is divided into 12 piers with different sizes. The most unique is the bridge foundation. Although it is made of large pieces of bluestone, it is very slim, with proper proportion of bridges and pavilions and harmonious configuration. The bridge builder built the bridge foundation into a squat shape. The main bridge is a four-wing single arch bridge, and each wing has three semi-arch bridge holes and two approach bridges. The holes are connected, and from the front, together with the reflection, five holes of different sizes and shapes are formed; Under the pontoon bridge, the holes are connected like a castle. Lotus-like Wu Ting Bridge, with its exquisite structure, unique shape, majestic momentum and unparalleled combination of bridges and pavilions, was appraised as "a model of the combination of traffic bridges and ornamental bridges in the ancient city of China" by Mao Yisheng, a famous bridge builder. Standing on the bridge and looking east, the building on the east side of the bridge surrounded by water is called Fuzhuang. Built in 192 1 year, it is named after it looks like a sleeping wild duck. Its overall architecture is simple and generous, which effectively sets off the Wu Ting Bridge and the White Pagoda and becomes an indispensable ornament on the Slender West Lake.

Baita

South of Wu Ting Bridge is Lotus Temple, formerly known as "fahai temple", which was founded in Yuan Dynasty. In the forty-fourth year of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty (1705), it was changed to "Lotus Temple". The famous building inside is the White Pagoda, which stands tall and has a history of nearly 200 years. As a brick structure, the tower is divided into three layers, the upper layer is called a brake, the middle layer is a niche, all round, and the lower layer is a tower foundation, which is square. The overall shape is similar to Beijing Beihai White Pagoda. It is said that the White Pagoda was built overnight. One day, Qianlong's cruise ship arrived at Wu Ting Bridge and suddenly said to Yangzhou's accompanying officials, "It's very similar to Qiongdao Chunyin in Beijing Beihai, but it's a pity that there are white pagodas." The next morning, when Gan Long opened the window, he saw a white tower standing high beside the Wu Ting Bridge, thinking that it had fallen from the sky. The eunuch next to him quickly knelt down and said, "This was done by salt merchants overnight to make up for the regret of the slender West Lake in the upper reaches of the holy water." It turns out that this White Pagoda is one of the eight salt merchants. Jiang Chun bribed Qianlong with tiger balm, based on the pattern of Beijing White Pagoda, and then made it overnight with salt packets as the bottom and paper as the surface. Although you can only look far away, you can't climb near, but Gan Long said with emotion: "The humanistic Yangzhou salt merchants are rich in the world, and they really deserve their reputation." Of course, the real tower can't be built overnight, nor can it be verified when the party was founded. However, the White Pagoda belongs to Lama Pagoda, which is made in Tibetan Buddhist temples and only used as an ornament in Slender West Lake. It is 27.5 meters high and its contour line is thinner than that of Beihai White Pagoda. The tower base is a brick-carved corset, with three niches on each side. The niches are carved with the statues of the zodiac, symbolizing one year 12 months and one day 12 hours. Set up a stage of 53, symbolizing 53 people who worship Guanyin as a teenager; The chakra is 13 layer, symbolizing the highest point in the sky, 13 days. Exactly: symbols are everywhere, and hints from time to time indicate that the gardening techniques are very clever.

Xichuntai

If the Slender West Lake is folded from Hongqiao to Xiaojinshan, the lake will change from north to south to east, cross the platform and Wu Ting Bridge, and then fold again, and the lake will change from east to west to north and south until it reaches the foot of Shugang Mountain. The starting point of the second turning point is the magnificent imitation building in front-Xichuntai. The so-called "Xi Chun" takes the meaning of "everyone is bustling, like stepping on a spring platform" in Laozi, showing a state of climbing high in spring, integrating with nature, being detached from things and being happy. Xichuntai and Xiaojinshan are far away, both at the corner of the lake. This is the place where Qianlong celebrated his birthday, so the grandeur of the royal garden is reflected everywhere. The tile roofs of all buildings are green glazed tube tiles, which are in harmony with the yellow tile Zhudong of Wu Ting Bridge and the jade-gold roof of Baita in the distance. The decoration of Xichun Terrace uses Yangzhou lacquerware technology, especially this mural "Jade Girl Blowing Rabbit", which uses Yangzhou lacquerware painting technology to show the spectacular scene of a group of ladies singing and dancing in the Tang Dynasty.

Wangchun building

The buildings opposite Xichuntai across the lake are General Xiao Li's picture album and Wang Chunlou, with Jiangnan architectural style, white walls and tiles, fresh and elegant. To the west of Wangchun Building is "General Xiao Li's Painting Gallery", and there is a pool bridge between the two floors. Who does General Xiao Li mean? According to records, in Tang Gaozong, the royal painter Li Sixun was appointed as General You Wuwei, known as General Da Li, and his son Li Zhaodao joined the army, known as General Xiao Li. "General Xiao Li Painting Gallery" is designed according to Li Zhaodao's artistic conception. Because "Great Lee Hyo Ri" initiated the "Jinbi Landscape Painting School" in the Tang Dynasty, today we can see the magnificent silhouette of Xichuntai through the fan-shaped window, which can remind people of the elegant atmosphere of art in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Ershisi bridge

"Castle Peak is faint with water all the way, and the grass in the south of the Yangtze River is not adjusted in autumn. On the moonlit night of the 24th Bridge, where can jade people teach to blow Xiao? " This is an eternal quatrain left by Du Mu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. For thousands of years, Twenty-four Bridges has touched the heartstrings of countless literati with its beautiful and handsome pictures, ethereal and illusory artistic conception and romantic and melodious artistic conception. So why did the 24th Bridge get its name? Look, the whole bridge is a single arch stone bridge made of white marble. It is 24 meters long and 24 meters wide.

2.4m, with 12 steps at both ends, and 24 carved white marble columns at both sides, each with a height of 2.4m and a width of 2.4m ... The bridge is carved with a bright moon pattern, which is beautiful and elegant. In the east of the bridge, there is a wall-covered rockery of Huangshi, and in the west, there is a platform for cherishing spring, which reproduces the poetry in Tang poetry. Here, we can't see the name of the twenty-four bridge, but it implies the meaning of twenty-four everywhere. Of course, some people say that the 24 th Bridge refers to the 24 th Bridge, but it seems that there is no need to make complicated textual research on the 24 th Bridge. It is better to carefully taste the magical artistic conception of "only meaning, not words" in Du Mu's poems. Because of this, many Chinese and foreign celebrities in history will come to see the landscape here.

Linglonghua steet

Linglong originally refers to the voice of jade, which means clear vision. Earlier, there was a house with a wide pool in front of it and many white faces. Every summer, there are small jade flowers and pearls in the hall, hence the name "Linglong Flower World". To the north of Linglong Flower Street is a zigzag bridge, which is a beam bridge, corresponding to Bridge 24. Blue is made of white marble, the pillars in the corner are engraved with moire patterns, and the fences between the pillars are carved into butterfly patterns. Next to the bridge is the Peony Garden. Yangzhou is famous for its peonies, especially the 24 th Bridge, also known as Yao Hongqiao. Because the bridge is full of peonies, tourists are like clouds.

"Twenty-four bridges are like promises, and yellow flowers bloom all over the slender West Lake; If Xizi Fan Li were here today, he wouldn't go to Hangzhou. " This is the sigh of Mr. Li Kongxin, the grandson of Li Hongzhang who has lived abroad for a long time, after visiting Slender West Lake. I don't know if everyone feels the same way. As a tour guide, I sincerely hope that the charming Slender West Lake will touch your heartstrings and leave you fresh and meaningful memories.
