Sailing Pavilion

Sailing Pavilion

According to the old records, it was rebuilt in the early years of song Xining (about 1068) beside the shanqingzha official house, which was a recreation place for officials and merchants at that time. Both luofan Pavilion and Fanli lake can be regarded as the heritage of gardens in Song Dynasty. In 1988, when the pavilion was rebuilt, many people agreed, but it was a pity that soon after the renovation, the pavilion and painting Pavilion had been idle, which was called "spider silk full of carved beams". The pavilion was rebuilt once in 1880.

Luofan Pavilion and the Grand Canal

China's Grand Canal is a huge artificial water conservancy project in ancient times. Before the Tang Dynasty, different sections of the canal were named Guogou, Caohu and Caohu. Since the Yuan Dynasty, the canal has made use of the original canals and some natural rivers to dig the Jeju River, Huitong River and Tonghui river. It has opened a grand canal connecting the north and the south through the Yellow River, Huaihe River and Yangtze River. From Dadu (today's Beijing) to Hangzhou, it has become the only water channel for transporting grain from the south to the north and for public and private businesses. In terms of the magnitude and arduousness of the project, only the Great Wall, known as one of the wonders of the world, can match it. Today, due to the development of modern transportation, the canal has partially disappeared its original role. However, in terms of culture and human historical achievements in transforming and utilizing nature, the Grand Canal is still a symbol of the great achievements of the Chinese nation. As the materialization of this sign, there is also a pavilion building, which is the luofan Pavilion located in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province.

Jiaxing City is an important wharf of the Grand Canal. There is a gate called Shanqing gate on the canal in the north of the city. There are many ships coming and going from south to North on the canal. The sails are like a forest. Business travelers and tourists stop at the gate. The gate becomes a bustling market. As the ship must sail through the gate, someone later built a pavilion on the west side of the gate, named "sail Pavilion". There is no record of the time when the pavilion was first built. According to historical records, Shenzong in the Northern Song Dynasty was rebuilt at the beginning of Xining (1068), and then in the Ming Dynasty (1626). After war, it was rebuilt in 1875. Because the pavilion was built on the weir of the river, it became a recreation place for the past business travelers, especially the literati. Someone wrote a poem describing the scenery around the pavilion. The road is "dark green palace willows, fat red blooming wild plum". Li zhaoheng, a scholar of the Ming Dynasty, photographed the unique scenery beside the pavilion with a poem: "willow branches and sand bank, sunset side, returning to the sailmast and rolling smoke.".

Later, a section of canal in Jiaxing was blocked and Shanqing sluice was abandoned, but luofan Pavilion remained as a historic landscape. People built a small garden centered on the pavilion and named it luofan Pavilion. When the pavilion was built again in the year of qingguangxu, a Taibai pavilion with four corners was built to worship Li Bai, as well as the statue of Flower God and gate god. In 1921, Jiaxing liquor company raised funds to renovate the garden, which covered an area of 2500 square meters. With lush trees and fragrant lotus, it became a scenic spot for tourists to rest in Jiaxing at that time.

During the Anti Japanese War and the cultural revolution, luofanting Park was seriously damaged. In 1981, Jiaxing city declared luofan Pavilion as a municipal cultural relic protection unit; in 1988, the garden was repaired, Taibai Pavilion, rockery and pond were renovated, and luofan Pavilion also welcomed tourists with a new look.

Memory under the sail Pavilion

According to the old records, it was rebuilt in the early years of Xining in Song Dynasty (about 1068) beside the shanqingzha official house, which was a recreation place for officials and merchants at that time. Both luofan Pavilion and Fanli lake can be regarded as the heritage of gardens in Song Dynasty. In 1988, a lot of people agreed that the pavilion was rebuilt, but it was a pity that soon after the renovation, the pavilion and painting Pavilion had been idle, which was called "spider silk full of carved beams"! Luofan pavilion was rebuilt once in 1880, which was initiated by wine merchant Zhang Shoutang. Although Zhang is a businessman, his mind is not warm in winter. He knows that landscape design must pay attention to "combination". Therefore, he not only built the Jiuxian temple, but also widened the garden to 2500 square meters. The rockery, pavilion, gallery and lotus pool in the garden are complete in color. In Jiangnan garden annals published in 1920s and 1930s, Jiaxing luofan pavilion was listed as a famous garden. In 1935, the Beijing Shanghai Hangzhou Ningbo railway administration compiled and printed the "Jiaxing tour guide" manual. The entry of "luofan Pavilion" reads as follows: "the pavilion is facing the canal, and the scenery is unique when you look at it from the window Today, the trees are lush, and the stones are built into mountains. When you are on the ground, you can feel the fresh air. "Compared with the reconstruction of the pavilion in 1988, we seem to have to lament, not to mention the imagination in our mind, that is, the common sense of landscape architecture is not enough, so it is difficult to blame the tourists for their indifference to it.

When I was young, I went to baibuqiao with my little friend to pick mulberry and catch crickets. When I passed the sail Pavilion, the lotus pool was still there, but I was still young, but I didn't realize the "Qingqi" in that pool. In my memory, the sheets, clothes and colorful diapers of nearby residents are drying around the lotus pond. From time to time, I can see people brushing toilets and tanmeng pots by the pond. The scene is similar to that of Tianxing Lake (the site is on the south side of Nanhu Hotel). Later, in 1967, when the lotus pond was filled up to build a road, the fengshui of luofan Pavilion seemed to be cut off. Behind the pavilion is the tomb of Cui, the wife of Zhu Maichen of the Han Dynasty, which is called "shame tomb" by Jiaxing people. According to folklore, when Zhu Maichen was young, he was poor. His wife Cui forced her husband to divorce her and remarry to a Shanqing official. Later, Maichen became a senior official and returned to his hometown in honor. Cui died in shame. This legend has been widely spread, and the Peking Opera "Ma Qian Po Shui" is based on it. This play was probably banned after liberation, because it propagated feudal patriarchal ideology and male chauvinism with women as slaves. In Chinese history, many bad things or bad reputation are often attributed to women. The so-called "women are the curse" is often heard. Recently, there is a saying of "being greedy for domestic help". I think it's a good idea. However, if we overemphasize it, I'm afraid it will weaken the seriousness of the anti-corruption struggle. It's easy to remind people that as the saying goes, "it's impossible to get a wife for a lifetime." then corrupt officials are somewhat innocent. Moreover, from the cases of corrupt officials that have been revealed, most of the "greedy domestic helpers" are "officials" rather than "domestic helpers" because their husbands are expensive and they have different powers in their hands.

Jiaxing has never been said to rebuild "shame tomb", which is very good. This is the progress of Jiaxing people's anti feudalism thought.

On the southwest side of "shame tomb" (the area behind today's "jiasilian"), it's time to be the former site of "Hedun Qiujia" in "Jiahe eight sceneries". This is the origin of "born of kunye rice" in the third year of Huanglong (231) of Emperor Wu's Sun Quan. Around the end of the Qing Dynasty, "jiahedun" was still a famous scenic spot. The so-called "embroidered soil crisscross rice fields in the evening, and the spring forest and mangroves smoke from cooking". The scenery was still very impressive. Forty years ago, my second cousin died at the age of less than 3 due to breast tuberculosis. My aunt ordered me to take her coffin to the north gate for burial with yituozuo. Tuozuo and I crossed Beili bridge into tannong, turned to the north, walked out of xiushuidou, and came to a high hill outside guiban bridge. In my memory, there are many tombs and trees in the weeds. It was late autumn, and the crows were noisy in the woods. The scene was desolate. For decades, I have always thought that the location of the high hill outside the guiban bridge is in line with the site of jiahedun. Majiabang site is the birthplace of Jiaxing, and jiahedun is the beginning of Jiaxing. In these two places, I think steles should be erected with good writing.

The present situation of the pain of the Pavilion

Sorry

"The pavilion has never been taken care of. People often come to destroy it. The floors, walls, doors and windows and other things that can sell money have been kicked and knocked. At night, there are even homeless people sleeping in it." An unnamed master, who is demolishing the pavilion, said that he is only a part-time worker. He can do whatever the contractor asks him to do. As for which demolition team he belongs to and who the boss is, he has no idea. "The lanterns and Shouwen may have been blown down by the wind, even the stone lion guardrail. These things will be rebuilt after they are removed." When the reporter asked why some ancillary buildings in the pavilion were damaged so seriously, the master said so.

Aunt Zhang, who lives next to the pavilion and has not yet moved away, told reporters that before, there was an old woman who was in charge of the pavilion and usually cleaned it. But since the demolition of the luofan Pavilion began in June 2007, no one was in charge of the pavilion. "Several bluestones on the ground have also been dug away, and even the plaques on the pavilion have been taken away and sold. I really hope that the relevant departments will take charge and protect our cultural relics." Looking at the daily accompany in his side of the pavilion broken like this, Aunt Zhang's words revealed a trace of regret and helplessness.

"In fact, you don't have to walk too far. There are allusions and scenery around you." This is the netizen's feeling at the end of the post. Maybe what he wants to say most is how much we need to protect the scenery around us.

surprised

"When I saw the word shanqingzha in the opera before, I was surprised and wondered whether it was shanqingzha in the north of Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province. After checking Jiaxing City records, it is said that behind the fan Pavilion beside Shanqing gate, there is Cui's tomb, which is called "shame tomb" - of course, it must be a fake tomb made by a good posterity. Luofan Pavilion is also a famous local place. Due to the existence of Shanqing sluice, the boat will sail before the sluice. It is a boundary between the inland river and the outer river. In ancient times, officials and friends were welcomed and seen off, and they often went here to wash their dust and bid farewell. But today, I went to look for the place where Cui's family was thrown into the water. What I saw was tragic. "
