Tianwentai

In Dehang Grand Canyon, tianwentai is one of the absolutely necessary scenic spots. Climbing all the way up from yuquanmen, we arrived at the tianwentai when we were about to reach the peak. All around the mountains around a lonely peak, ahead is the abyss. Standing here, it seems that I can really talk to God.

Tianwentai

Tianwentai is located on Fenghuang Mountain in Taojiang County. It comes from Yiyang County annals.

Tianwentai is located on Fenghuang Mountain in Taojiang County. Around the tianwentai, there are towering ancient trees and shady trees. According to legend, Qu Yuan, a senior official of the state of Chu, was slandered by Zilan, Jin Shang and others to leave his post and exile Jiangnan because he advocated to publicize laws and regulations, to give talents and abilities, and to reform politics. He lived in a temple on the mountain and wrote the immortal poem "Tian Wen" here, so it is called "Tian Wen Tai".

According to the Qing Kangxi "Yiyang County annals", it is said that Qu Yuan wrote "Tian Wen" in Taohua river of Yiyang. Qu Yuan exiled Jiangnan and wrote "Nine Songs" in Yusi mountain. The mountain is in Xiangyin, so it is not groundless to write "Tian Wen" here According to the records of the Qing Dynasty, it is said that this is the place where Qu's original work Tian Wen was written. The old temple at the foot of the mountain is called Fenghuang temple. Si Yuan and his wife, commonly known as the Phoenix God, were sacrificed at every Duanyang Festival. During the reign of Emperor Daoguang of the Qing Dynasty, the temple was destroyed, and today the site remains. According to Chu Ci: Qu Yuan was exiled and wandered in the mountains and rivers. He saw that there was a temple of the former king of Chu. He drew pictures of mountains and rivers, gods, Qi Wei and the monsters of Zuo Xian. He asked because he had written about the walls. It is not far away from capital, and it is not far away from capital, and it is not far away from capital, and it is not far away from capital. Tianwen pavilion was once built on the Tianwen platform, with stone carvings, painted sculptures and wood carvings. Tianwen Pavilion and Fenghuang Temple disappeared due to a fire in the guangnian period of the Qing Dynasty. Today, there is only one stone tablet of "ancient tianwenge site".

In 290 BC, Qu Yuan saw that the state of Chu had been swallowed up by the state of Qin. He completely lost confidence in the rulers, so he came to the Taohua river. He stood on the cliff of Fenghuang mountain, facing the surging capital and water at his feet, the distant thunder, the nature of heaven and earth, social politics, life destiny, exploration and pursuit. He looked up to the sky and asked more than 170 questions, which is why he was so worried It is the magic poem "Tian Wen" in Chinese history. Shortly after that, Qu Yuan moved to Huayuandong, only 10 miles away from Fenghuang mountain, and lived in seclusion. Here, he planted and raised flowers, read books, and funded the construction of Sanlu bridge. So far, there are still remains of study village and Sanlu bridge in Huayuan cave.
