How was Wu Shan? Introduction of Wushan Scenic Area.

When it comes to Hangzhou, people only know the West Lake in Hangzhou, but they don't know Wu Shan, whose scenery is comparable to the West Lake. But the West Lake belongs to outsiders, and Wu Shan is indeed the favorite of Hangzhou locals. Bian Xiao wants to recommend Wu Shan this time. Anyone who sees this Weibo knows that there is actually a very good scenic spot in Hangzhou, Wu Shan.

If there is no West Lake, Wu Shan will be the first choice for visitors to Hangzhou. Because of the West Lake, newcomers to Hangzhou go straight there, or leave Wu Shan to Hangzhou citizens.

It's a bit like foreigners going to Shanghai will definitely go shopping on Nanjing Road first, instead of going to Huaihai Road like Shanghai locals.

A city is like a person. No matter how you open to the outside world, it is always different inside and outside, and you will leave something for yourself, whether it is mood or space.

It's not that cities and people do this on purpose, such as Wu Shan, nor that Hangzhou people are narrow-minded and deliberately keep it for themselves. How people in Hangzhou hope that people will visit Wu Shan more, not to mention the beautiful scenery and splendid culture of Wu Shan. From the perspective of market economy, people also hope that the more people go to Wu Shan, the better.

However, since God has given Hangzhou West Lake, no matter how good Wu Shan is, it ranks behind the West Lake, so Wu Shan has become a paradise for Hangzhou people.

There are many waters and mountains in Hangzhou. A horseshoe-shaped mountain is formed in the northwest, southwest and southeast of the West Lake, with an inner circle and an outer circle. It is divided into Nanshan and Beishan with Tianzhu Mountain as the boundary.

According to this old rule, Wu Shan naturally belongs to the circle and rowed to Nanshan. With so many mountains, what's different about Wu Can? It is a particularly popular mountain, and it is also a mountain with a particularly heavy secular atmosphere and red dust atmosphere. When people from Hangzhou go to Wu Shan, they seem to have a feeling of rushing to the temple fair.

Judging from the construction of a city, a city often needs such a meeting place. In ordinary cities, squares are often used as distribution centers in citizens' daily lives. People in China regard catching up with temple fairs as the center of their social life.

There are two places closest to the temple fair in Hangzhou, one is Zhaoqing Temple outside Qiantang Gate, and the other is Wu Shan.

Wu Shan is close to the former Imperial Palace, and the Imperial Street is at the foot of its mountain. It has the right time and the right place, and it has become the nearest hill to Hangzhou people, and it is also a real landscape masterpiece of Hang Cheng.

There is an old saying in Hangzhou: Look at Huang Cheng's fire. This Huangchengshan is Wu Shan.

Wushan has many aliases. Besides Huang Cheng, it is also known as Wugong Mountain, Xushan Mountain, Miaoxiangshan Mountain, Qibaoshan Mountain and Screen Mountain. If we explain them one by one, they are all stories, and we can only choose the important ones.

Wu Shan is the most authentic name, and its origin is recorded in the history books.

"A Tour of the West Lake" said: "Wu Shan was the southern boundary of Wu in the Spring and Autumn Period, so it was called Wu Shan."

When Wu Shan sees the mountain, the white clouds still linger for several times. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, wuyue fought for hegemony, and the more defeated it was, the land of Hangzhou belonged to Wu, and this mountain was the boundary.

There is also a legend that Wu Zixu was killed by Fu Cha, the king of Wu, and sank into Qiantang River. The people of Wu sympathized with him and built a shrine for him on this mountain, which is also called Wugong Mountain and Xushan Mountain.

Another feature of Wu Shan is that when you first arrive in the mountainous area, you will not be able to tell one mountain from another. I have traveled at the foot of Wu Shan for several years, often going up mountains. For a while, I visited Yunju Mountain, Ziyang Mountain and Bao Yue. Later, I learned that these mountains are all Wu Shan.

Originally, this Wu Shan is a southwest-northeast arc mound, which is composed of dozens of hills, large and small, collectively known as Wu Shan.

When I first went to Wu Shan, I was in college. The poor students decided to celebrate a trip because of the successful rehearsal of a play. I have been around the West Lake for a long time. One of my classmates lived at the foot of Wu Shan, and said that Wu Shan was very interesting, and there was a stone of the zodiac, so we swarmed.

The mountain is not high, which is more than 100 meters, and most students in peer middle schools are from China, so I thought of Wu's The Scholars, which was just mentioned in the classical literature class.

The tenth time, I wrote about Mr. Ma Er's visit to Wu Shan. According to Mr. Ma Er's observation, the roads are full of temples and shops, wine, tea and food stalls, as well as fortune tellers, which are very lively.

But the day we went up the mountain was not like this. Maybe there were not many people because of the rain. Before I reached the top of the mountain, I saw big camphor trees all over the mountain, such a big camphor tree. I only saw it in the parking lot in front of Hangzhou Hotel. It is said that the tree in front of Jimuge is over 800 years old, and it is the ancestor of Cinnamomum camphora in Wu Shan.

However, at that time, I was soft-hearted and had no interest in today's long history. My heart is only on the ecliptic stone and I am going straight to my destination. The zodiac stone is on Ziyang Mountain. There are many stones on this mountain, and the texture of limestone appears blue and purple in the rain.

The zodiac stone is also a folk saying, which is called the Twelve Peaks of Wushan by scholars, and stands abruptly and horizontally. We each picked up our own zodiac signs, found one, exclaimed, that's enough, and then walked on until we ran to the Jianghu Guan Hui Pavilion at the top of Ziyang Mountain.

Standing on the pavilion, you can see Qiantang River, West Lake Water, Hangzhou City and rolling mountains in a glance.

There is a pair of couplets in the pavilion, which is generous at first glance. It was many years before I realized that it was written by Xu Wenchang and Xu Wei:

Eight hundred miles of lakes and mountains, knowing the year of the map;

Hundreds of lights, all back to the balcony here.

A few years after we poor students landed in Wu Shan, Hangzhou rated the new ten scenic spots of West Lake, and Wu Shan was named "Tianfeng in Wu Shan". The word "weather wind" is well known. Sadula, a poet in the Yuan Dynasty, said: "The wind blows me to climb the hump, and the hills are exquisite."

This hump is Wu Shan. If you are close, you will push Qiu Jin. Qiu Jin's behavior is unusual, and so is his poetry. Compared with her, Sadulla's realm and charm are far from perfect. Poetry day:

The old trees are sparse and the sunset is red, and the stone platform near the wind is towering;

Heroic, river and sea connected, castle peak in the middle.

Later, I often went to Wu Shan, and once took the film crew to Wu Shan to find Sanmaoguan, which was the study place of Yu Qian 16 years old. I have also been to Baocheng Temple in Wu Shan, where there is a unique tantric statue of China.

There is a flower rock near Baocheng Temple, and those three big red characters tell a romantic story. I never thought that the story of peach blossom on the face of Cuihu Lake would happen here. This is a legend, mostly out of collateral, but people would rather believe in it than believe in it. So many poems appear on this flower stone.

First, Cui Hu's Peach Blossoms Set each other off in Red in the Tang Dynasty,

Then came Su Dongpo's Cui Huruo's Return Last Year in the Song Dynasty.

There are also "cold pine and cypress" in Wu Dongsheng in Ming Dynasty and "flower-feeling rock" in Zhu Shu.

These beautiful stories strung together with poems give people many gentle reverie. There are three characters "the first mountain" under the flower stone, which are written by Minnan office, a great calligrapher in the Northern Song Dynasty. In the Ming Dynasty, Zhao Jiang, the magistrate of Qiantang County, ordered people to carve them. People often come here to watch and ponder these words.

I remember near Sanmaoguan, I also saw the words "the first peak of Wushan", which is also vigorous and powerful and can be called a masterpiece.

Speaking of the first peak in Wu Shan, there is another joke. It is about Liu Yong, a romantic genius in the Northern Song Dynasty, who once wrote a long tune. He filled in the word "looking at the tide" and said that Hangzhou "has laurel seeds in Sanqiu and lotus flowers in ten miles". As a result, Yan Hongliang of Guo Xu saw this poem and thought Hangzhou was so good, but he still didn't see it, so he asked the painter Shi Yisheng to sneak into Hangzhou, draw a picture of the West Lake and take it back to make a screen.

Wan Yanliang's face is getting better and better. He painted himself, rode to the top of Wu Shan, and then wrote a poem saying: "There are millions of troops on the West Lake, and they will immediately reach the first peak in Wu Shan."

It is said that there are many famous historical sites on the top of Wu Shan. It is said that this is where Yang Weizhen, a great poet in Yuan Dynasty, studied. Because this place is called Tieyeling, Yang Weizhen named himself "Tieya".

Speaking of Yang Weizhen, young people nowadays may not be very clear about it, except that he is the founder of West Lake Ci in Zhi Zhu. It is said that the mustard seed garden of Li Yu, a great dramatist in the Qing Dynasty, is also here, and his Random Thoughts is also written here. The mustard garden can't be found now. After Li Yu died, he was buried under the lotus peak next to the West Lake.

I later learned that there are many temples in Wushan, including Wang Yao Temple, Shui Miao Temple, Huode Temple, Miao Lei Temple, Wenchang Temple, Zang Sheng Temple, Brewmaster Temple and Taizi Temple. People visit these temples every three days.

Anyway, there are various names all year round, not to mention the Spring Festival and Dragon Boat Festival. People who go to Wu Shan in the long summer are very particular.

It turns out that among Hangzhou people, there is a kind of five-lang and eight-guarantee, that is, rice-fighting lang, hair-shaving lang, inverted horse-lang, leather-lang, pawnshop lang and bartender, noodle-keeping, tea-keeping, rice-keeping, ground-keeping, elephant-keeping (yin and yang), horse-keeping and milk-keeping (middlemen). On the day of the long summer, the Goro and Babao will go to Wu Shan.

I have been to Wugong Temple; No, according to the data, Wugong Temple and Chenghuang Temple are the largest temples in Wu Shan.

The Wugong Temple, built in the Tang Dynasty, is the earliest temple in the West Lake with real people as gods. It's dedicated to Wu Zixu, and it's scheduled for September 20th of the lunar calendar. The sacrifice was a whole pig.

The Town God Temple was not in Wu Shan originally, but in Phoenix Mountain before the Song Dynasty, and it was not until Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty that it moved to Wu Shan. Not now, only the big camphor tree in front of the temple.

Wang Yao Temple is still there, but there are many wax figures in it, which has become a pantheon and a patriotic education base. Among these wax figures, many are famous people in Hangzhou, and one of them is Zhou Xin, the god of Huangchengshan.

In the Ming Dynasty, Hangzhou was a local official and served as a judge. It is said that he can solve crimes like a god, vindicate the people, and is not afraid of royalty, just like "Bao Qingtian". But without a shot, the outcome is far less than that of Bao Zheng. Finally, the Ming emperor Judy was killed.

Later, Judy knew that he had killed an honest official by mistake, and he regretted it very much. He said, "There are such excellent people outside the ridge, and I killed them by mistake." Not long after, Judy added: Recently, I seem to have seen a man in red standing in the sun and said to him: I am your courtier Zhou Xin, and now I have become a god, and I am treating your majesty for rape.

This is a kind of self-consolation for Judy, so Zhou Xin has become the city god of Hangzhou.

Once upon a time, there was an Artest Sui Temple on the mountain, which organized an activity of Shen Sui going up the mountain every year. Due to the good weather and good harvest in the past year, the activity started the day before the spring, which was very lively.

There is also a Haihui Temple in Wu Shan, like the maiden of Goddess Guanyin. Activities are usually irregular. At that time, the Goddess of Guanyin in Tianzhu Temple will be invited to go down the mountain, walk for more than 20 miles and be carried to Haihui Temple, the "mother's home". On that day, the citizens of Hangzhou often come out to watch the fun.

After there were not so many temples in Wu Shan, they gradually fell into the cold. There are often some retired old people who go to the mountains early in the morning and squat at the gate of the former temple to have tea and chat. Others walk birds, do morning exercises, hang their voices and dance in the mountains.

Later, I heard that the ancestral temple site of the Southern Song Dynasty was found at the foot of Wu Shan.

Then the ancestral temple ruins park was built.

Then, Wu Shan Square was built.

The Town God Pavilion on the top of Wu Shan has also been built.

The Qinghefang intersection at the foot of Wu Shan has also been preserved.

The Drum Tower near Wu Shan will also be restored.

Hangzhou should take Wu Shan as the center and restore the historical features of ancient culture in the old city. This is of course a good thing, but how many old Hangzhou people will go to Huangchengguan for a ticket of tens of dollars?

I don't know. In my mind, Wu Shan used to be a mountain that could walk into the gate without spending money.
