There are still many couplets, so I won't list them one by one because of space constraints. If the green mountains and green waters of the ancients are set as the background of Taoyuan, architecture and sculpture will naturally become solidified music, then these scattered ancient couplets will naturally flow into the hearts of the ancients, and these ancient songs spread the spiritual core and positive cultural energy of the ancients, which still linger for more than a thousand years.
