Ancient refers to a historical site, and "nostalgia" refers to visiting the site, touching the scene and expressing feelings because of the induction of historical sites. Nostalgic poems are mostly associated, imagined and expressed by authors hanging on historic sites in situ. Therefore, nostalgia is often combined with the theme of boarding. In artistic expression, it is often better to write about the scenery, the geographical environment and scenery of this monument, than the blending of scenes.
"Ode to history" refers to reading ancient books, picking up old theories, aiming at a specific person or thing, a historical event or a historical figure, so as to express the author's thoughts, attitudes, feelings or satirize current politics, and thus express his unique views. Reciting ancient poems is good at incisive exposition, not necessarily writing landscapes, nor showing the current time and space scenes.
Nanjing, a famous historical city, has had many names in the long years, among which Jinling is the most resounding name. Today, Jinling is still the most elegant nickname of Nanjing. As early as the Tang and Song Dynasties in China, Nanjing was called "the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties". The so-called "Six Dynasties" refer to: ① The Three Kingdoms and Wu. Sun Quan was the king, making his capital Jianye (now Nanjing). ② Eastern Jin Dynasty. In 3 17, Si Marui, a royal family of the Western Jin Dynasty who fled to the south of the Yangtze River, proclaimed himself emperor in Jiankang (now Nanjing) and established the Eastern Jin regime.

In the middle and late Tang Dynasty, praising history and cherishing ancient poems: the brilliant peak of chanting epic poems was in the middle and late Tang Dynasty. With the rapid decline of the Tang Empire, the reality of the Anshi Rebellion, the rise and fall of the Six Dynasties, the brief glory of the Sui Empire and other old things, like a huge shadow hung over the poets from time to time, leaving them with a broader world to look back on the past. Poets reminisce about the past, or warn the rulers of the current dynasty (taking history as a mirror), or lament the decline of the Tang empire (borrowing the past to hurt the present), or express their fears under the cover of their lair (borrowing the past to express their feelings). By paying tribute to historical events and figures, or paying tribute to historical sites, we can criticize the shortcomings of the times and pin our arms on them. Liu Yuxi is the champion of epic poets at this time. Wu Yi Xiang and Jin Sai Shan Nostalgia are both masterpieces handed down from generation to generation. Others include Song of Eternal Sorrow (Bai Juyi), Poems of Lotus Palace (Yuan Zhen), Poems of Golden Copper Immortals in Han Dynasty (Li He), Song of Xia Sai (Li Yi), Three Wonders of Crossing China, Crossing Wujiang Pavilion (Du Mu) and Sui Palace.
