The first wind and smoke rise Chapter 89
It is estimated that I was acting too obviously, Zheng Yanzhe smiled a little embarrassedly: "The matter of ordering flowers is indeed a little inconsistent with me." His honest smile is really inconsistent with the ruffian dress of the whole body. Good morning, tourists. It is a great pleasure to meet you in Wuhan. First of all, on behalf of the staff of Hubei Education International Travel Service, I would like to express my heartfelt welcome to everyone. Welcome to the beautiful river city of Wuhan. I am your tour guide Liu Yaping, you can call me Xiao Liu. As the saying goes, there are friends from afar, and it is not said that it is also true! It is very suitable for me and the mood of this Master Yang beside me, Master Yang is an old driver with rich driving experience, I can introduce Wuhan to you without distraction in his car, and you can also enjoy the beautiful scenery outside the window with confidence. I hope you can have a good time in the next tour and leave good memories in Wuhan.
We are now on our way to Wuhan's most famous attraction, the Yellow Crane Tower, the landmark of Jiangcheng. The Yellow Crane Tower is the first of the three famous buildings in the south of the Yangtze River, and the Guqin Terrace and the Qingchuan Pavilion are called the three major scenic spots in Wuhan. Friends, please look at the place where I pointed, that is the Yellow Crane Tower towering on Wuchang Snake Mountain, which was built in the Wu Huangwu period of the Three Kingdoms (223 AD), with a history of 1,700 years. However, the history is long but after the vicissitudes of life, repeatedly built and destroyed, the last yellow crane tower in history is also called Tongzhi Building, in Guangxu ten years, that is, in 1884 destroyed by fire. Repeatedly built and destroyed in the world, why? This is because the Yellow Crane Tower is no longer a famous building in the general sense, it is not only a lyrical place for countless literati and scholars, but also a witness to the rise and fall of an era. Not long ago, the Yellow Crane Tower was lit up, and a feast of lights kicked off in the Yellow Crane Tower. The lit up Yellow Crane Tower shines brightly, which is the collision of the times and the soul. The times are advancing, the soul is constantly being renewed, and we must be civilized when traveling. Please let this visit be remembered in your heart.
The Yellow Crane Tower, which is about to arrive, was started in 1981 to build, based on the Tongzhi Building of the Qing Dynasty, and can summarize its characteristics in five words: Qi, beautiful and wonderful. It is composed of the main building, the pavilion, the corridor, the archway, the ancient commercial street, etc. The main building has a net height of 51.4 meters and a total of five floors. Each side is 35 meters long, 72 big pillars rise from the ground, 60 warped corners fly the eaves in the air, absorb the length of the building, and gather the wind of the north and the south. The golden glazed roof is simple and magnificent, and the red gourd-shaped treasure roof sparkles at night, and each layer has a strong poetic and picturesque feeling. Like a yellow crane, spread its wings and want to fly.
We now walk into the hall on the first floor of the Yellow Crane Tower, what catches our eyes is a large ceramic mural with a height of 9 meters and a width of 6 meters - the white cloud and the yellow crane, the picture can be divided into two parts: the sky and the earth, the immortal in the sky blows the jade flute, drives the crane to take off, very elegant. In the world, the common people sang and danced and were jubilant. Please look at the columns on both sides, the columns are engraved with the couplets known as one of the two unique Yellow Crane Towers: the refreshing air comes from the west and the clouds and mist sweep away the heaven and earth, and the great river goes to the east to wash away the eternal sorrows. It means that the crisp and pleasant air comes from the west, dispelling the fog accumulated in the clouds, and sweeping away the regrettable things between heaven and earth; The surging Yangtze River rolls eastward, washing away all the troublesome things that have been troublesome throughout the ages. Climb the Yellow Crane Tower today, let us forget about the humiliation, and the future can be expected. Please go upstairs with me, this is the first and a half floor of the horse running corridor, and it is also the only mezzanine floor of the Yellow Crane Tower that is open to the public. By now, you may have noticed that the Yellow Crane Tower has five floors on the outside, but it is not the case on the inside, it actually has nine floors. This is because in ancient China, the singular number was called the yang number, and "9" is the largest of the yang numbers, and it is the same as the Chinese character "long", which has the meaning of "long". In this racecourse, some celebrity calligraphy and paintings are mainly displayed for everyone to enjoy.
Now we are in the hall on the second floor, which displays the historical rise and fall of the Yellow Crane Tower, where the models of the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties and the modern six Yellow Crane Towers are displayed. You see, this Tang Dynasty Yellow Crane Tower, the first floor is connected to the city, there are only two floors from the outside, the overall structure is relatively simple and rough, giving people a simple and majestic feeling. It is very consistent with the famous style of opening up in the Tang Dynasty. Take a look at the building of the Song Dynasty, which is a courtyard-style building group composed of buildings, platforms, pavilions and corridors, showing the exquisite and elegant artistic style of the Song Dynasty. The Yuan Dynasty is characterized by peculiarity and has obvious national characteristics, which is related to the vast territory of the Yuan Dynasty, and there is a bridge in the middle that embodies the good wish of peaceful coexistence between the cultures of the north and the south. In the Ming Dynasty, the Yellow Crane Tower gathered the essence of northern and southern cultures. Look, there's some stuff like that, you know what it's for? That's right, this is the parasol that people used in ancient times. Please look at the Yellow Crane Tower of the Qing Dynasty here, the Yellow Crane Tower of the Qing Dynasty is the most distinctive one in the ancient Yellow Crane Tower, it should be divided into three layers of heaven, earth and man, the first layer has 12 eaves, representing 12 hours of the day, the second layer of twelve eaves, representing 12 months of the year, and the twenty-eight corners of the third layer, representing the 28 constellations.
It is the most amazing thing to be able to integrate the traditional Chinese astronomical calendar culture into it, and it is a pity that it finally turned into ashes, which is now the Yellow Crane Tower. After reading these, it is not difficult for us to find that each dynasty has its own unique architectural style and culture, and in the end, we can also see the inheritance and development of history and culture, and the integration of northern and southern cultures.
Please hold the stairs and follow me to the third floor. Here is a ceramic engraving painting called "The Quintessence of the Literati". The characters in the picture have different expressions and are lifelike, reproducing the scene of literati and writers who came here to recite poems and give gifts. You see, the red-robed man in the middle is the great poet Cui Hao of the Tang Dynasty. Although he is talented, because of the traitorous ministers, his career is tortuous, and he has no talent, so when he climbed the Yellow Crane Tower, he created this poem:
The deceased has taken the yellow crane to go, and the yellow crane tower is vacant here.
The yellow crane is gone, and the white clouds are empty for thousands of years.
Qingchuan calendar Hanyang tree, fragrant grass and parrot island.
Where is the sunset township, and the Yanbo River makes people worried.
The narrow sense of nostalgia for missing relatives and the broad sense of nostalgia for the world are organically combined into this poem. Friends, I don't know if you have heard of Cui Hao's inscription poem, Li Bai's beautiful talk about putting down the pen, interested friends can go to check the literature to investigate, but Li Bai has a soft spot for the Yellow Crane Tower is true, he wrote at least 16 poems about the Yellow Crane Tower in his life, such as "Sending Meng Haoran to Guangling" on this mural
The fourth floor is the cultural activity place of the Yellow Crane Tower, displaying the improvised works of contemporary calligraphy and painting masters visiting the building, and there are also four treasures of the study room specially prepared, if any tourist is interested, you may wish to show your skills here.
Now we come to the observation deck on the fifth floor of the Yellow Crane Tower. Here you can also experience the positivity of "wanting to be poor and reaching a higher level." Looking into the distance, feel the jade flute playing in the Yellow Crane Tower, and the plum blossoms falling in May in Jiangcheng. Li Bai passed through Jiangxia because of the exile of Li Lin, the eternal king, and his old friend took him to visit the Yellow Crane Tower, the head of the Yellow Crane Tower, and the sound of the flute added infinite thoughts to the poet Li Bai who overlooked the railing.
Now let's go west to enjoy the beauty of the three towns of Wuhan. In front of you is the Yangtze River rolling eastward and the Yangtze River Bridge that turns the moat into a thoroughfare, as well as the towering TV tower on the opposite side of the Turtle Mountain, like the Qingchuan Bridge across the river with a rainbow...... The Yellow Crane Tower is like an old man, sitting firmly on the top of Snake Mountain, witnessing the vicissitudes of Wuhan's history and today's ever-changing day, and looking forward to the prosperous future with an expectant eye.
Tourists and friends, the explanation of the trip to the Yellow Crane Tower is over. Everyone is free to move around, and we'll see you at Namdaemun in an hour. I hope my explanation can leave you with good memories, and please bear with me if I have any shortcomings. You are welcome to come to Jiangcheng next time and come here to sit.

Everyone knows that we Chinese call ourselves the descendants of Yan Huang, the north is the descendants of the Yellow Emperor, and the south is the descendants of the Yan Emperor. Today, let's walk into the hometown of Emperor Yan, the ancestor of the Chinese nation. Yandi Shennong was a powerful and advanced tribal leader in ancient China, and he and the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan jointly created the ancient civilization of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River. As early as more than 5,000 years ago, Emperor Yan Shennong created cultivation, planted grains, tamed birds and beasts, tasted herbs, and cured people's diseases. In accordance with the way of heaven and the system of time, it has opened up a precedent for human understanding of the laws and the use of scientific knowledge to serve production and life, and created a splendid Chinese civilization. Yandi Shennong is therefore known as the humanistic ancestor of the Chinese nation together with the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, and all Chinese people also proudly call themselves the descendants of Yan and Huang.
The history of Chinese civilization is long, and the foot of Lieshan Mountain is the source! Lieshan is Lishan, which is a fake word. Numerous historical classics, site inscriptions, folk customs and expert research confirm the untouchable status of Suizhou Lishan as the hometown of Emperor Yan Shennong. The Yandi Shennong's hometown scenic spot we visited today is located in Suizhou in the north of Hubei Province, Suizhou is located in the junction zone of the Huai River Basin and the Yangtze River Basin, the east of the Hanshui, the largest tributary of the Yangtze River, and the ancient "country of the Han East". Yandi Shennong's Hometown Scenic Area is a national 4A-level tourist attraction, mainly including major attractions such as "Root-seeking Ancestral Pilgrimage Area" and "Holy Relics Sightseeing Experience Area". Tourists and friends Yandi Shennong Scenic Area has arrived, please take your belongings and get off the bus.
Dear tourists and friends, now we are located in the scenic spot population. The cultural sculpture wall in front of us is a relief carving of geometric abstract patterns on stone slabs to show the chaos of human beings in the era of ignorance. Everyone looks at the front of the wall, "Emperor Yan's Hometown of Shennong" is inscribed by Mr. Shen Peng, the former chairman of the Chinese Calligraphy Association.
In front is the nine-arch bridge, with a total length of 117 meters, across the Lieshan Lake, connecting the entrance of the scenic spot with the Shennong Palace. The design is based on the modulus of nine, and the bridge body is composed of nine coupon holes, and the span between the railings on the bridge and the length of the approach bridge are also multiples of nine. Cross-border nine-arch bridge, through the Chinese Ancestor Gate, past the Holy Flame Terrace, we came to the Ancestral Square. The square is 117 meters long and 117 meters wide. The area is 13,689 square meters, a multiple of 9. It is paved with high-quality granite produced in Fujian, which can accommodate 20,000 people to participate in ancestor worship activities at the same time. The Rising Sun Garden and the Crescent Moon Lake are located on the east and west sides of the Ancestral Square respectively, jointly constructing a landscape of "the sky is round and the sun and the moon shine together".
Everyone, please see, this is the eight meritorious columns, carved from high-quality granite, 9.9 meters high, 1.27 meters in diameter, ninety-nine numbers, indicating the supreme position of Emperor Yan in the history of the development of Chinese national civilization. The eight pillars of merit are distributed in the form of totem poles to form a group of sculptures, with realistic techniques, vivid pictures, and meticulous carvings by skilled craftsmen, fully embodying the great achievements of Emperor Yan in the history of the development of Chinese national civilization. (Cutting tung for the piano, practicing silk for the strings; erecting wood for erection and building houses; The eight meritorious pillar sculptures are set up here, which is intended to carry forward the splendid history and culture of the Chinese nation, and has far-reaching practical significance for regaining national pride and cohesion, and will surely inspire us to inherit the past and unite and strive for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
Dear friends, now we have come to the Yandi Shennong Palace, sitting in the north and facing south, covering an area of 6,600 square meters, with columns and straight eaves, Qin and Han styles, simple and solemn. It is located in the hinterland of the Lie Shan and extends forward to the Kowloon Mountain opposite, forming a central axis. The main hall adopts the architectural form of the roof of the palace, the triple eaves and the high platform base, which is the application and refinement of the large-scale space technology method of the early Chu and Han high-rise platform buildings and the architectural space combination of the early large space. The plane column network of the Shennong Hall is nine rooms wide, reflecting the local cultural connotation of Jingchu respecting nine in history, and also metaphorizing the meaning of Jiulong Mountain in the hometown of Emperor Yan Shennong. In the plane layout, it is enclosed by two circles of stone pillars inside and outside, 36 pillars in the outer circle, symbolizing 36 Tiangang, and the portrait and totem of Emperor Yan Shennong are carved on the four square stone pier pillars at the population place, on the one hand, it is a metaphor for the four seasons and the land of Emperor Yan in China, and on the other hand, it is an abstract reproduction of the unique architectural form of Chu and Han architecture. The inner wall skirt of the main hall will be arranged with stone reliefs showing the merits of Shennong, and the top of the main hall is also
