Niangziguan

Waterfall, located 40 kilometers northeast of Pingding County in the east of Shanxi Province, is named because it is located near Niangziguan, a famous pass in Taihang Mountain.

Niangziguan is the juncture of Shanxi and Hebei provinces, with dangerous terrain. It is the gateway and traffic throat of the three Jin Dynasties, and a place that must be contested by military strategists in the past dynasties.

It is said that in the early Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan's third daughter, Princess Pingyang, once had a eulogy garrison, so she attacked and named it "weizeguan" and "Niangziguan" today. Lady pass,

It is a tourist attraction integrating natural and cultural scenery.

Niangziguan scenic area has very convenient transportation. In the East, there is a straight-line bus from Yangquan City to the scenic area, and in the west, there is a bus from Jingjing County, Hebei Province (more than 30 kilometers away from the scenic area).

Niangziguan nearby catering, accommodation and other facilities have a certain scale, the service is thoughtful.

With comfortable conditions and environment, it is an ideal resort for tourists. The main tourist attractions of the scenic spot are: Baijing ancient city, porcelain kiln of Tang Dynasty, waterfall, etc.

About 300 meters away from the east gate of Niangziguan castle, you can go to the envy temple and Niangziguan waterfall.

The date and month of the founding of the ancestral hall of jealous women can no longer be verified. Because of its long history, the ancestral hall of jealous women has collapsed.

It is worth mentioning that Jinnong, one of the eight monsters in Yangzhou in the Qing Dynasty, once wandered around the world and traveled all over the world. He came to Niangziguan jealous women's temple and wrote a poem named "Pingding daozhong"

After the rain, Dai Zhi flows in the spring, and Li Yan makes a few words of praise.

Pedestrians drink horses to steal, a burst of flower fly envy ancestral temple. In front of the envious temple is Shuiliandong waterfall, the largest waterfall in Niangziguan area.

Due to the abundant underground water resources near Niangziguan, there are many springs. Shuiliandong waterfall is the water flowing out of a huge spring with a radius of 20 meters. Because there is no ponding basin, there is no place to hold the spring water,

Therefore, it falls down from a steep cliff with a height of tens of feet to the Taohe River to form Shuiliandong waterfall. In Ming Dynasty, Qiao Yu wrote a poem about waterfalls and springs

Back to Mianshan, to see the number of springs back.

Stone milk under the sea, waves stacked high green peak leisure.

Looking for a quiet path, you can go down to the Taohe River Valley. Looking up at Shuiliandong waterfall, you can see that the waterfall is like a white horse falling down from the sky in the Taohe River Valley. In the process of falling, the waterfall sometimes falls in a torrent, sometimes it is blocked by hard rocks. The water and rocks excite each other, splashing countless waves, scattering everywhere, and bursting out a thunderous sound.

If you take a detour to the other side of the mountain to watch Shuiliandong waterfall, you can see another scene of Shuiliandong waterfall.

The gorge, shrouded in mist and mist, is full of colorful neon lights under the sunlight. It is gorgeous and spectacular across the gorge.

In the Central Plains, it is rare to enjoy the beautiful scenery of waterfalls and springs,

However, the Shuiliandong waterfall in Niangziguan has the charming scenery rarely seen in the local area.

No wonder Yuan Haowen, a great poet of the Jin Dynasty, wrote this long poem "you Tian Xuan Quan" in praise of Shuiliandong waterfall when he visited Niangziguan in his later years. The poem says:

The poet loves the mountains and the bones. In October, he will break the ice and snow again.

A hundred miles of suspended current can't move forward, but you can wake up your hair with flying turbulence.

Bingzhou's mountains and waters, the waves of several rock crack.

I only know that the west of Jinyang city is rare in the world, and women's moment is even more strange!

In 1965, Guo Moruo, a modern literati, came to Shanxi to visit Niangziguan and wrote poems praising Shuiliandong waterfall

At the moment of lady, the waterfall is hanging and the dragon is flying into the valley.

The vast land of silver hoe array, stacked Chongshan rail link.

Looking back on the precipitous dissolution of Jasper, we will see a rainbow in the reverse flow.

······When Guo Moruo visited Niangziguan in 1965, he wrote a poem "crossing Niangziguan": "at Niangziguan, the waterfall is hanging, and the dragon is flying into the valley. The vast field of silver hoe array, stacked Chongshan rail link. Looking back on the precipitous dissolution of Jasper, we will see a rainbow in the reverse flow. There are 260000 mu of sloping land, crossing the Yangtze River and waiting to be seen. "

Indeed, in this arid land of Shanxi, Shuiliandong waterfall can be regarded as the first waterfall. Now in Niangziguan area, a power station has been built on site, which can be used for both power generation and irrigation. Niangziguan waterfall has added a little modern style since then.

Introduction to Niangziguan

Niangziguan's existing Guancheng was built in the Ming Dynasty. Zhengding railway, built in the period of the Republic of China, from the west of Hebei Province to Shanxi Province, and the Zhengtai railway in Taiyuan and the 315 provincial road today intersect and complement each other.

Niangziguan, known as the ninth pass of the Great Wall, is a must for military strategists in the past dynasties. There are two ancient castles built close to the gate.

The east gate is a general brick gate with the title of "Niangziguan in Zhili". There is a platform on it, which seems to be used for reviewing soldiers and watching the enemy's situation.

The dangerous building at the south gate is towering, magnificent, thick and solid, and built with bluestone. The "sujianglou" on the gate of the city stands tall, and it is said that it is the place where Princess Pingyang gathered to resist the enemy.

There are four characters on the front of the gate, which show the importance of Niangziguan.

The Great Wall on the southeast side of Guancheng is winding along Mianshan mountain, towering and straight. In the west of the city is surrounded by Taohe River, which never stops all the year round.

Dangerous mountains, river valleys and the Great Wall built a natural barrier between Shanxi and Hebei. In addition, there are more than ten scenic spots, such as Chengtian village, Laojun cave, jealous girls, beacon tower, Dianjiang tower, washbasin and summer resort. It is said that it was built when Princess Pingyang was stationed.

The story of Niangziguan

According to historical records, in the Sui Dynasty, Weize county was set up here, so it was first known as Weize pass.

According to legend, in the early Tang Dynasty, Princess Pingyang, the sister of Li Shimin and wife of Chai Shao, the Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, led millions of soldiers and was invincible. At that time, she was called the women's army. She was ordered to garrison here to establish Chengguan, and later renamed Niangziguan. Wang Shizhen, a poet of the Ming Dynasty, wrote Niangziguan Chancheng: "Madame goes to the north of the city to lower her surname, and Gaoyi banner is in front of Niangziguan.

At this juncture, you can smile alone, but there are no women to give to men. " Nowadays, there are many relics related to Princess Pingyang in Niangziguan area.

The "sujianglou" on the South Gate of the city, the "dianjiangtai" on the steep cliff across the river from the castle, and the "summer resort" on the south mountain. In the sunken area of the summer resort, there is an endless small pool, which is said to be the "washbasin" of Princess Pingyang.

The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army put the flag of victory on the women's corner, and marshal Peng Dehuai personally came to the battlefield to command the hundred regiments

Women's pass, hero's pass. Niangziguan landscape is undoubtedly the character of the north, it is rough and uninhibited, magnanimous and simple. From the flag of Princess Pingyang to the destruction of Japanese aggressors and bandits, the blood of women and heroes has been shed! At that time, Liu and Deng's army once fought here, and the cavalry of general manager Peng and Nie Shuai galloped here. The victory songs of liberation of Shimen and capture of Taiyuan all have Niangziguan notes. In August 1940, in the most difficult period of the Anti Japanese War, our eighth route army launched a hundred regiments war with 105 regiments on the 5000 mile front inside and outside Niangziguan. The campaign lasted for more than three months, killing and capturing more than 40000 Japanese puppet troops. It dealt a heavy blow to the arrogance of Japanese imperialism and inspired the confidence and determination of the whole nation in the Anti Japanese war. On August 21, after several days of hard struggle, Niangziguan, who had been ravaged by the Japanese aggressors for more than three years, returned to the embrace of the motherland.

Niangzi pass, unyielding pass. Her majestic and solemn posture, like a roaring cry, burst out the rhythm of the rise and fall of the nation. Through the ancient Great Wall and the rugged mountain shadow, there are many patriots and revolutionary martyrs fighting against the darkness and invaders. It is the cry of history and the heroic soul that make up the characteristics of Niangziguan. So I found the real character of Niangziguan, which is also the character of the Chinese nation.
