Hubei in Poetry

I love the long history of my hometown. My hometown is located in Jixin, and the provincial capital is Wuhan, which is known as the thoroughfare of nine provinces. My hometown is called "the land of Jingchu" because the main area in history belongs to Jingzhou, and most of it belongs to Chu in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Since the Sui Dynasty, some areas have been placed under the jurisdiction of Ezhou, so it is called "Hubei" for short.

I love the splendid culture of my hometown. In my hometown, the skull fossils of Homo erectus and Homo erectus Wushan dating from 2 million to 2.5 million years ago, as well as the early Homo sapiens "Changyang Man" dating from 654.38+10,000 years ago, have strongly challenged the current theory that human beings originated in Africa. Moreover, there are many talented people in my hometown from ancient times to the present, including Yan Di Shennong, You Meng, the originator of China drama, the patriotic poet Qu Yuan, Cha Sheng Lu Yu, the medical sage Li Shizhen, etc ... The famous couplet "Only Chu Cai, Yu Si Sheng" hung by Yuelu Academy is a tribute and proof to the talents in my hometown.

I like the beautiful scenery in my hometown. My hometown is dotted with lakes, which is the province with the most lakes in China, and is called "the province of thousands of lakes". The water in my hometown is very beautiful: there are gentle beauty of "I live at the head of the Yangtze River, but you live at the tail of the Yangtze River", free and easy beauty of "returning to Jiangling a thousand miles a day" and sublime beauty of "one river never returns, the waves are exhausted, and the romantic figures of the ages". The mountain in my hometown, represented by Shennongjia, is known as the "Roof of Central China". There are dense virgin forests here, and it is the largest "natural botanical garden" in Central China, full of mysterious beauty.

The long history, splendid culture and beautiful scenery of my hometown deeply attract me and inspire me to study hard and build my hometown better in the future.
