As a tour guide, it is essential to write tour guide words, which are the basis and premise for the tour guide to conduct oral tour on the spot. So what are the excellent tour guide words? The following are my carefully arranged tour guide words in front of Tiger Hill, hoping to help everyone.
There used to be two roads to Tiger Hill. One is the bus we took today, and we can get there by carriage. The other is the waterway, disembarking from the long gate, passing through the Qilishan pond in Bai Causeway excavated by Bai Juyi, the secretariat of the Tang Dynasty, and landing in front of the "current" water pier in Tiger Hill.
Generally, temples are hidden in the deep mountains, and Tiger Hill is in the temple. There is a jingle in Huqiu Temple that vividly shows the characteristics of the mountain: "The old monk is only afraid that the mountain will move, so teach him to lock the temple door before sunset."
Now we come to the gate of Huqiu Mountain, where the tide surges and ebbs. These four words point out the origin of Tiger Hill. Tiger Hill was originally named Hai Yongshan. In ancient times, it was a deserted ocean, and there were several green islands hidden at high tide and low tide. At that time, Tiger Hill, known as Haiyong Mountain, was the shortest, but beautiful, like a shining pearl in the vast blue waves. "Things change" water wall door is a kind of zhaobi. Today, there is still a towering and quaint water wall door in front of the boss of Suzhou Humble Administrator's Garden, which reflects the face of the people in the water town.
As we know, He Lv, King of Wu, built He Lv City in Suzhou 5 14 years ago. At that time, China was in the Spring and Autumn Period, and wars among small countries continued. When most of China was still in the Bronze Age, Wu was famous for casting iron and swords, and famous blacksmiths such as Ou, Gan Jiang and He appeared. In 496 BC, Wu declared war on Yue, and He Lv, the king of Wu, was injured and died on his way home. In order to build He Lv's tomb, the State of Wu used100000 migrant workers and buried 3000 swords in the tomb. In order to keep the secret of the tomb of the King of Wu, it is widely rumored that three days after the burial of the King of Wu, a white tiger crouched on Haiyong Mountain, which is said to be the result of the domineering of the King of Wu. Since then, it has been known as Tiger Hill for 2500 years.
By 96 1, a brick tower with seven floors and eight sides was built on the top of Tiger Hill. Now the Tiger Hill has been seriously tilted, deviating from the center 2. 34 meters, the leaning tower of Tiger Hill is becoming more and more famous, and because of its confusing relationship with the tomb of the Prince of Wu, scientists and tourists are more interested in secret control. In principle, the tomb of the King of Wu was built in 496 BC, and the Tiger Hill was built in 96 1 year, with a difference of 1500 years. There should be no relationship. But now the two ancient sites on the mountain and below are closely related. What is the connection between them? We'll introduce it in detail when we get to Tiger Hill.
[Ershanmen]
There are many historical sites in Tiger Hill. In addition to Tiger Hill, there are two mountain gates in front of us, namely Broken Beam Hall. Duanliang Temple was built in A.D. 1338. Its main beam is made of two pieces of wood, and a row of beautifully shaped bucket arches are designed at both ends to support the cantilever beam, which solves the stress problem. According to folklore, an emperor of the Yuan Dynasty deliberately made a problem and made an imperial decree stipulating that it can only be built with specially equipped materials, and nails are not allowed. However, Suzhou craftsmen were not stumped, and a unique temple gate was built under the careful construction of experienced old craftsman Seruban. There are couplets on both sides of the door, "The tower shadow meets the Boshan light house, and the boatman speaks the sound of flowers in the city". It describes the grand occasion in the history of Tiger Hill. Rows of houses and painted boats come and go, and the sound of words and the shouts of selling flowers constitute a bustling street view.
The inscription of Duanliang Hall facing south is "Great Warrior Holy Land" written by Zeng Shouzai 1877. In the north, there is a horizontal plaque inscribed by modern scholar Liang Shuming, which contains the truth and the ancient. These four words come from 1600 years ago in Gu Kaizhi's Biography of Tiger Hill. Speaking of Tiger Hill, Suzhou people can tell many related folklore. As long as the magic color of these legends is removed, we can see the original appearance of Suzhou's history, culture and economic development. Therefore, the words "ancient" and "true" reveal to us the true value of Tiger Hill.
Speaking of which, it's a bit off topic. Tiger Hill is a famous scenic spot in Suzhou, where many original buildings should be preserved. But in fact, except for Tiger Hill, this dilapidated Liang Temple has been repaired many times and can be called original. The rest of the buildings are less than a hundred years old. Why is this? According to the traditional concept of China people, everything in the world is composed of five elements, namely water, gold, wood, fire and earth. Therefore, China's architecture is also based on the concept of "five talents are born, everyone can use them, and nothing can be discarded". For thousands of years, brick-wood structure has been regarded as the only architectural form in China, and stone has been rejected. In addition, China people "regard buildings as clothes and horses, and replace them when necessary, and have no ambition to make them never break", which determines that buildings in China are fragile and difficult to survive. So we can only say when the building was built, not that time.
[Han Hanquan]
This is an ancient well named Hanhan Spring. Hanhan is the name of a monk in Liang Dynasty. According to legend, he was an orphan who was blind and went to Huqiu Temple to become a young monk. I go down the mountain to fetch water every day, and once I slipped and bit here because the ground was covered with moss. He thought that the moss must be wet, and there might be a spring eye, so he dug in the ground with a pole and finally found the spring eye, and cured his eye disease with the spring water. From then on, it was named Han Han Spring. For thousands of years, Huqiu Baiyun tea brewed by Hanhan Spring has always been a good product for monks in Huqiu Temple to entertain distinguished guests.
[Sword tries stone]
This boulder that splits from the middle is called the sword test stone. According to legend, 2,500 years ago, King He Lu of the State of Wu, in order to win the world, summoned the swordsman of the State of Wu and Mo Xie to gather "the essence of the five mountains and the essence of the six rivers", made a fire outside Xiangmen in Suzhou, and tried it in March, but it still failed to achieve perfection. Mo Xie bravely jumped into the fire, and the gold and iron in the furnace melted, finally casting a pair of male and female double swords.
It is also said that after Qin Shihuang unified the world, he looked for 3000 swords buried with the prince of Wu. After getting the sword, he cut at random at a boulder, and the boulder immediately split in two.
In fact, no sword can split the boulder. Sword test stone is a typical big crack formed along the crack after a long period of weathering of tuff ejected from volcano, which looks like a sword split. But people are still keen on the legend of chopping people with swords, and the king of Wu is also happy to say so. Because, in the war-torn Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Wu's possession of such a sharp sword is undoubtedly a testimony to Wu's strength. This small country was awed by Wu's powerful weapons and surrendered without a fight. Therefore, this sword test stone may be the witness of the political fraud of that year.
Next to the sword-testing stone, there is a poem written by Yuan: "When the sword tries a trace of autumn, the water on the cliff stops." How to stop kowtowing to Zhao Gaotou after a hundred years? "
[pillow stone]
This is a huge stone, named after it looks like a pillow.
As for the pillow stone, it is said that it was named because the eminent monks in the Jin Dynasty often recited scriptures here and slept on the pillow stone when they were tired. Another explanation is that Tang Bohu, a scholar, is resting here, and every Zhu Zhishan makes fun of him, thinking of the couple sleeping from the pillow stone, and then associating it with the game of having children. Because it is related to Tang Bohu, some people associate the pillow stone where San Xiao got married, saying "two smiles" is Tang Bohu's "two smiles" when she waited for Chou-heung to come on the pillow stone. When she saw Chou-heung coming, she pretended to finish reading the book in a hurry and turned the book upside down.
[Qianshi]
The purple Pantuo stone in front of us is the center of Tiger Hill, a thousand stones. There are thousands of seals in the distance. Shi Ping is named because it is rock-like, two acres wide and can accommodate thousands of people. According to legend, after the completion of the tomb of the King of Wu in 496 BC, pigeon wine was given here and a crane dance was set up to entertain them. More than 1000 grave builders drank water here, and pigeon poison broke out and died tragically on this boulder. Zhu Daosheng, a monk in Jin Dynasty, said here that although Gong Sheng was knowledgeable and attracted "thousands of people", there were few believers. According to historical records: "People don't believe in lectures, so they gather stones as disciples, reason, and stones all nod." This is the origin of the idiom "Give birth to a public opinion, and the stubborn stone nods". The stone in the nearby Bailianchi is engraved with the word "stubborn stone", which refers to this story.
[Erxian Pavilion]
Erxian Pavilion is a pavilion carved entirely from stone. Legend has it that Lv Dongbin and Chen Tuan played chess. Erxian was playing chess here when a woodcutter passed by carrying a load of firewood. When he saw this scene, he stopped to watch chess and inserted the pole into the ground. Before he finished watching a game of chess, he went back to the village. No one knew him because it had been several generations. This is because "one day in the mountain has been a thousand years on earth". Chen Tuan's bodhi old zu is famous for his sleeping skills. When I woke up, I met the woodcutter. He didn't believe what the woodcutter said to him. He regarded the woodcutter as a dreamer. This is the first couplet in the couplet: "Dream is not a dream." The second couplet is a bit mysterious, calling: "Seeking Yuan in Yuan is Yuan". Talk about the truth of Tao. Yuan is metaphysics and Tao. Mysterious and mysterious, from the wonderful door. Tao gives birth to one, life gives birth to two, life gives birth to three, life gives birth to everything, and then 99 is one. Starting from Tao and studying the theory of Tao, we can get Tao. Another couplet is "Yueyang once had traces, but now there are traces in the tiger burial". It's about the whereabouts of Lv Dongbin.
[Tiger Hill Sword Pool]
Tiger hill and sword pool are usually the favorite places for tourists to take pictures. One is vigorous and powerful, and the other is very iconic. According to legend, these four words were written by Yan Zhenqing, a famous calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty. Due to the age, the stone carving of Tiger Hill was lost. During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, in the year of 16 14, the famous stone carving artist Zhang Zhongyu made up the sculpture. The old and new stone carvings seemed to be in one go, and it was difficult to distinguish the true from the false, so there was a saying that "the tiger hill is a real sword pool". However, the real meaning of "the fake tiger hill is a real sword pool" is not here. Please follow me into the hole in the sky.
[There is a hole in the sky]
There is a hole in the sky. This wall is made by hand. Due to the barrier of this wall, the flat thousand stone and cliff stone are divided into two worlds. As soon as I entered the round cave entrance, the atmosphere was definitely different, and the water in the pool was as clear as a sword. Because there are 3000 swords in the tomb of He Lv, the prince of Wu, it was named Jianchi. The word "sword pool" on the left wall of the cliff was written by Yuan and Zhou. But folklore was written by Wang Xizhi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Legend has it that the monk of Huqiu Temple exchanged two geese for the word "sword pool" of Wang Xizhi. After Wang Xizhi finished writing, the two geese they got turned into dragons and tigers and returned to the top of Tiger Hill. This is the legend of "God Goose Changing Words".
As for the cause of the sword pool, according to the record of Emperor Wudi, it was named the sword pool because there were 3,000 swords, such as flat bamboo and fish intestines. According to "Yuanhe County Records", "Many dissenters split mountains to find rare and unknown. Sun Quan got nothing when he wore it, and the cut place became a deep stream. " It seems that the sword pool was formed by burying the sword and looking for it. But Song believes that "the water in the pool is natural and the sword is dead."
In A.D. 15 12, Tang Bohu, Qin Wang and others discovered the tomb door and left stone carvings. 1955, when the people's government cleaned the sword pool, it found a stone alley about 10 meter long, with a trumpet-shaped end, which could accommodate four people standing side by side. A rectangular slate was cut into four bluestones horizontally and vertically. Judging from the shape and orientation of the tomb gate, it completely conforms to the tomb system in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Therefore, it is speculated that it may be the tomb of the Prince of Wu. However, because the tomb is just under the tower, and the scale is huge, once excavated, it will definitely have an impact on the tower, so it was abandoned and the tomb door was not opened, leaving an eternal mystery. The present situation is that the back hill of Tiger Hill is made of earth and the front hill is made of huge stones, so it is speculated that the back hill is made of artificial materials. If so, it has something to do with the inclination of Tiger Hill. Due to the weak foundation, the 6000-ton tower leans to the side of the mound. Therefore, we might as well think that the construction of the tomb of King Wu caused the inclination of the tiger hill, which protected the tomb of King Wu from being excavated and became a white tiger that really protected the tomb of King Wu. It is the relationship between the tower and the tomb, two important monuments.
[Tower courtyard behind Wuxiantang]
The leaning tower of Tiger Hill is the most vivid in this position, because a white wall just becomes the contrast of the leaning tower. Tiger Hill is a national key cultural relic protection unit. Tiger Hill is 47.7 meters high and 6 meters shorter than the Leaning Tower of Pisa. The spire is 2.34 meters off the center, which is half of the leaning tower of Pisa. Tiger Hill was built in 96 1, 390 years earlier than the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Please note that the tower on the right is curved. Therefore, it can be inferred that Tiger Hill, like the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy, began to tilt when it was built. The last tower seems to tilt to the left, because 1638 was burned by lightning. After reconstruction, the center of gravity changed and the tilt was corrected.
We know that the Leifeng Tower in Hangzhou, which was in the same period as Tiger Hill, collapsed in 1930s. By the 1950s, Tiger Hill was in a precarious state, not only with a serious tilt, but also with cracks all over the body, with the widest point reaching 80 cm. 1956 adopts the iron hoop shotcrete method, like a hoop bucket, each tower is hooped with steel bars, and the foundation is poured with cement, which effectively eliminates cracks. There is an interesting history about building a tower in 56 years. An old worker sat in the corner and smiled slightly when the meeting was held to discuss the plan to repair the tower. Seeing that he had a plan, the person who presided over the meeting asked him to speak. After many refusals, the old workers finally put forward the principle and scheme of repairing barrels with hoop devices, which attracted the whole audience to burst into laughter. The matter ran aground. Soon, a Soviet expert came. After seeing the Tiger Hill on the way down the mountain, the entourage told the above story. Soviet experts were very interested and went up the mountain again. So foreign experts issued a statement and began to work out a concrete plan to repair the tower.
198 1 year, and it took five years to lay a solid foundation. Under the tower foundation, 44 holes were drilled manually, reinforced concrete was poured, cement shells were made under 44 piles, underground waterproofing was carried out, and some bricks were replaced, so that the tower stopped tilting.
In particular, when/kloc-0 repaired the tower in 1956, precious cultural relics such as the celadon flower bowl of Yueyao and the stone letter with warp box were found in the tower, and the tools for repairing the tower in that year were also found. More importantly, according to the written records in the cultural relics, it is confirmed that the construction time of Tiger Hill is from 959 to 96 1 year.
Tiger Hill is the witness of Suzhou 2500 Cang Sang. Tiger Hill, which stands high on the top of the mountain, has become a symbol of Suzhou. Therefore, Su Dongpo's words were confirmed. When you go to Suzhou, you must visit Tiger Hill. I would also like to add that if you go to Tiger Hill, you must take a photo of Tiger Hill.
[Tayuan]
Tiger Hill is an imitation wooden tower built entirely of bricks. The columns of the outer wall and the inner wall are all wooden columns, and the eaves are also wooden arches with sloping cornices. Why can brick towers stand for thousands of years? 1956 when repairing the tower, many bamboo needles were found in the tower. According to experts' analysis, these bamboo needles are used to be inserted in the cracks of bricks, then wound with fine twine, and then coated with cement slurry, so that the whole wall is connected into a whole, which increases the firmness. You can walk around the tower, because of the tilt, the height difference of the tower door is really obvious. The horizontal gap between Tiger Hill and Tiger Hill is 48 cm.
[Wanjing Mountain Villa]
Wanjing Mountain Villa is located on the east side of Tiger Hill, and it is built on the Huangshi rockery piled up along the hillside. After 20 years of ups and downs, the rockery in Huangshi has been integrated with Huqiu Mountain, which is full of wild interest and is suspected to be a remnant of the mountain. Hundreds of high-quality bonsai are scattered on the hillside, which is clear at a glance from a height and very imposing. All the bonsai echo the Tiger Hill outside the wall, which seems to complement each other in history and culture.
Supai bonsai is an important school of bonsai in China. Suzhou-style bonsai began in the Tang and Song Dynasties, flourished in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and developed greatly in modern times. Supai bonsai is mainly stump bonsai. Traditional stump bonsai pays attention to six sets of three supports and one roof. That is, the left and right branches, plus a branch behind them, form three levels from bottom to top, and finally form a level at the top. The leaves are all steamed bread-shaped. This kind of bonsai is mainly tied, supplemented by scissors, neat and luxurious, so we might as well call it "academic school". In recent years, Su Pai bonsai is anti-traditional, paying attention to innovation, focusing on scissors, supplemented by tying, paying attention to the natural taste of bonsai, maintaining its natural state, and using the principle of Chinese painting to adjust the contrast and change of branches and stems, which has aroused people's beautiful associations.
Wanjing Mountain Villa is one of the largest bonsai gardens in China. Concentrated most of Suzhou's bonsai boutiques. Among them, King Brom has a history of more than 400 years. With a height of 1.8m and a crown width of 2.5m, it is one of the few super-large piles. From south to bottom, the trunk is oblique and looks like a tiger squat; Looking from the north to the opposite, the main branches naturally bend, such as dragons. On this basis, Mr. Wang Xiye, a Shanghai painter, wrote "Dragon Board from Tiger Distance" for King Bromley. A good name is really the crowning touch.
Bonsai is rare and non-renewable, because it has life. For a masterpiece, gardening experts often devote their lives to it. Therefore, when we appreciate bonsai, we should not only look at the appearance, but also understand the layout of the whole tree, the intention and efforts of the gardening expert, and what he wants to express, so that the bonsai garden will have a lot to watch, instead of rushing by.
