Qingfeng sluice

Qingfeng sluice

From DongBianMen in Beijing to Tongzhou, it is 20 kilometers from east to west. In Yuan Dynasty, a Tonghui river was excavated by hand. There are five gates on the river: Datong gate, Qingfeng gate, Gaobei gate, Huayuan gate, Puji gate, etc. Qingfeng gate, also known as the second gate, is the most famous.

Location and environment

From DongBianMen Datong gate to the East is Qingfeng gate. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it was once "another village with dark willows and bright flowers". It was a very busy place with prosperous business and many tourists. Yan Linqing, an official of the Qing Dynasty, wrote in "Hongxue Yinyuan Tuji · erzha Xiuqi": "in the area of erzha, the clear flow lingers in the blue, the mixed trees are clear, and the princess mountain forest is nearby. Therefore, every time people from the spring and autumn capital travel, they may take a boat, or follow the winding bank, or flow wine cups to sit in the water, or go to the mountain forest for a walk. The day is always peaceful, the wind is clear, the Sichuan is beautiful, and the feeling is high and cool, It's one of the lucky things for everyone. " Spring outing, autumn outing, scenery, entertainment, lyric and so on. Zhenjun's "the day is near occasionally hears": "the green curtain painted boat, the wine shop song stage, makes one suspect in the Qinhuai River." Tonghuihe River and Qinhuai River, Yuandadu and Nanjing took care of each other.

Beautiful scenery

Both sides of Qingfeng sluice are poetic and picturesque. As a result, Qingfeng Zhabei formed "Er Zha village", and Qingfeng Zhabei was called "Qing Feng Zha village". There were restaurants, restaurants, teahouses, hotels, shops, etc. in the north and South villages, Yangko, lion dance, stilts, drum singing, storytelling, Erhuang singing, lotus flower falling, river lanterns, time tunes, etc. were performed one after another. There is a Dragon King Temple in Zhabei, which attracts visitors from all over the world to burn incense. The East Tower in the south of the gate and the sea tower in the north of the gate make the wine smell and the drinkers laugh. There is a poem of bamboo branches in Beijing in Qing Dynasty praising the Grand View of the restaurant

Most of all, the East Tower is good, and the masts are like Jiangnan.

About poetry

Cao Xueqin, the author of a dream of Red Mansions, one of the four famous works, traveled from Nanjing to Beijing, and then from Beijing to Nanjing, often resting and chanting poems on both sides of Tonghui river. In Zhangjiawan, Tongzhou, there are caojiazu tomb, silver shop, Diandi (more than 600 mu), shops, etc.; in the southeast of qingfengzha, there is shuinanzhuang, where there is dunjiazu tomb, where duncheng and dunmin's mother are buried. The Dun and Cao families went to the two places to worship their ancestors on Tomb Sweeping Day and other festivals. Most of Dun min's Maozhai Shichao has a poem "two gates late, Jingting does not arrive":

In the breeze, while the boat, the curtain of Lu'an village is very quiet.

The sound of the waves is endless, and the setting sun is independent of the small bridgehead.

Duncheng's Lu River travels praises the poetic and picturesque scenery on both sides of Tonghui river. In his Lu He Zhou Zhong Yan:

There is also a note: "there is a sunset in Jintai in the north". The original stone tablet of "sunset in Jintai" has been found. It is one of the "eight sceneries of Yanjing" in that year. Cao Xueqin, duncheng and dunmin are close friends at the north entrance of Jintai Road and near tianshuiyuan. When Cao Xueqin passed away, dun min wrote a book entitled "Hegan Jiyin inscription and hanging Xueqin"

The willows on both sides of the river are blooming, and the spring is coming back.

The passing water does not leave the fragrance of poets, but the empty memory of drinkers.

Thousands of trees in the river are covered with snow, and thousands of villages are far away.

With no reason to watch, cold cup Xiao Temple dusk Crow fly.

I wrote this poem when I was drinking with friends on the "wangdonglou" in the south of Qingfeng gate. To leave a permanent memory, memory, long thinking for future generations.

Today, Qingfeng park on the South Bank of Tonghui river is open to tourists. It has become a nostalgic resort in the capital.
