Introduction to scenic spots

Sangha

Sangha pagoda was built in the Tang Dynasty. It was originally in Sizhou city on the South Bank of Hongze Lake. It was buried with the real body of Sangha (624-710), an eminent monk from the western regions, so it was named. During the period of Shaoxing (1131-1162) in the Southern Song Dynasty, due to avoiding the war, the Buddhist statues of Sangha were worshipped by the eminent monks from Sizhou to Zhenjiang, and the Sangha pagoda was built in Shouqiu mountain. In the Ming Dynasty, Wanli (about 1595) moved the tower to Dingshi mountain, which became an important symbol of the east gate of Zhenjiang. The tower was rebuilt according to the style of the Ming Dynasty, with seven levels and eight sides, dense eaves and sparse layers. The inside of the tower is square, and it goes up from one room to the other. The wall thickness of the tower is up to one meter. It is a brick imitation wood structure pavilion type, 32.5 meters high, bearing on the white stone xumizuo. The tower is surrounded by rolling doors, walls and mountain gates, and the "ancient Sangha tower" stone forehead. The tower was robbed by fire in the middle of Guangxu period, and its wood structure was partially burned. It was fully restored in 1983. In 1961, a "Shihan" was excavated from the underground palace under the pagoda, containing coral, agate, pearl and two gilded pagodas with six sides and seven levels. Dingshi mountain is located in the south of the Yangtze River. The tower stands on the top of the mountain. It is close to the Grand Canal. You can have a panoramic view of Nanshan. Wang Wan of the Qing Dynasty's "Dingshi mountain wild view" poem says: "the south of the city is lonely, but the extreme eye is dark. White horse Wumen back, Castle Peak Chu long. The peach blossom is near the broken bank, and the orchid is in the setting sun. But I envy the flowing water in the East, and the ripples reach my hometown. "

Gong Zizhen's stele

"Kyushu's anger depends on the wind and thunder, and all horses are silent. I urge the Lord of heaven to be energetic and not stick to one pattern to bring down talents. " The stele is located in the south of Dingshi mountain. Gong Zizhen (1792-1841), a native of Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, lived in Danyang in his later years. He was an outstanding thinker and writer in the Qing Dynasty. Because he demanded social change, his ambition of revitalizing the country could not be realized, and he was rejected by the stubborn power. He resigned and returned to the South with indignation. On the way back, I saw that the countryside was desolate and desolate. When I passed by Dutian temple in Zhenjiang, it was a temple fair with a sea of people. At the invitation of the Taoist priest, I wrote the above seven temperament poems. The old Taoist priest praised this poem with "wind and thunder" and "God". In fact, this poem is a magnificent masterpiece which skillfully uses the title to chant, criticizes the current situation, and yearns for change.

Praying for heaven

Qitianchi is located on the east side of sengata. Due to the south is Dutian temple. In ancient times, banners and banners were hung high in front of the temple, smoke was swirling, bells were ringing, cymbals were ringing, and music was melodious. The faithful men and women prayed for rain here. The Jade Emperor, the God of thunder and the God of wind were moved by it, and the rain fell. Later generations built qitianchi here to show their remembrance. Qitianchi has a water surface of nearly 900 square meters and is surrounded by stone walls with twists and turns and crisscrossed teeth.

Xiyu Lake

Xiyutan is connected with qitianchi by the surrounding mountains and waters. The water falls into the mountain stream and flows into xiyutan to form an artificial waterfall. The rockery on the edge of the pool overlaps with the shore for landscaping, and the bamboo green waterfall Pavilion is located in the Xiyu pool. Ingenious design and unique layout.

Student Pavilion

Xuezi Pavilion is located on the hilltop on the east side of Dingshi, towering over the six storey granite base. On the top of the pavilion with six columns, flying corners, warped eaves and tubular glazed tiles, there are six Golden dragons carved on the ridges of the six linear pavilions. It seems that it is not easy to climb the six steps, but on it, the view is broad and the mind is relaxed. Xuezi Pavilion is jointly built by six colleges and universities in Zhenjiang. The stone inscriptions beside the pavilion are biographies and inscriptions of 12 famous scholars in Zhenjiang: Zu Chongzhi, Liu Xie, Xu Hun, Su Song, Shen Kuo, Mi Fu, Ji Cheng, Ma Xiangbo, Liu e, Liu Yizheng, BA yuzao and Mao Yisheng. The plaque on the student pavilion was inscribed by Fei Xiaotong, echoing Gong Zizhen's poem tablet.

Hongmei Pavilion

The original site of Hongmei pavilion was on Yuehua mountain in Zhenjiang. In the past, Hongmei was all over the mountain. During the Xianfeng Period of the Qing Dynasty, Feng Zicai, a famous anti French general, was stationed in Zhenjiang. Because of his love for Hongmei, he built Hongmei Pavilion on Yuehua mountain, which was later destroyed. In 1995, in order to enhance the friendship between China and Japan, the "red plum Pavilion" was rebuilt on the Bank of qitianchi. The inscription "Hongmei Pavilion" was written by Zhao Guangrong, a famous poet in Zhenjiang during the reign of Guangxu.

Nanxiangzhai

Nanmu hall, a residential building in Ming Dynasty, was originally located at No. 98 Daxi road in the city. The former head of household, Yan's, sold the building to Tang's in 1950s. Due to the development and construction of cangxiang area, it is difficult to protect it in situ. With the approval of the municipal government, the Council of cultural administration restored it at the Bank of qitianchi in Baotashan Park, which complements the Sangha pagoda of the Ming Dynasty.

Nanmu hall has three wide sides, seven deep Xiangu frames, shuttle columns, side feet, and round beams. It is made of huge materials, rigorous and stable image. It still has the ancient system of song and Yuan Dynasties. It is rare in the ancient buildings that have been found in our city. After reconstruction, the main wooden structure of the building is the original, and the roof, doors and windows, gables and platform base are constructed in modern lighting style.

Cherry Blossom building

In order to commemorate the 16th anniversary of the friendly exchanges between cangfu city and Zhenjiang City, and the 25th anniversary of the normalization of Sino Japanese diplomatic relations, cangfu City Hill Rongzhi Japan China Friendship Association cooperated with Zhenjiang Foreign Friendship Association to build a "Tibet" with Japanese style and architectural characteristics of cangfu city on the Bank of qitianchi in proportion as a symbol of the friendship between the two cities. "Cang" is a typical building in cangfu city. Now it is an archaeological museum, which has become an important symbol of the city's culture. Ding Fengyuan's poem says: "bingshenli's second visit to meiyingyuan at the beginning of the month" spring is in Zhonghe, which means plum blossom. Last year, she was here today. Flowers with a saint like, feeling and Wen Suo enough. The pagoda steps are empty of rain, and the temple of heaven is full of wind and thunder. If you want to go back, you can't get it.
