What is the West Lake, a tourist attraction in Leizhou?

Leizhou West Lake Park is a garden-style comprehensive park with beautiful scenery and rich humanities, which integrates natural scenery, historical sites and various amusement projects. People can not only witness the unique scenery in the south, but also listen to a ups and downs of Leizhou historical story. "Lake": Before the Song Dynasty, the West Lake was a "wild water" filled with smoke, a "reservoir" for water conservancy projects in the suburbs of the Song Dynasty, which transported nectar to the vast tidal fields in the East and was also a tourist attraction in ancient Leizhou, leaving many scholars' footprints. It was called "Lei Hu" in ancient times. At that time, its water storage area was about five or six times that of the West Lake now. With the change of environment, there has been a repeated process from lake to field and from field to lake. Before the Song Dynasty, only Tianning Ancient Temple and Bishui depended on each other day and night. During Song Xianchun's reign, there were eight pavilions at the lakeside, namely Hengzhou, Ou Jie, Zhuofei, Fangsheng, Zong Yi, Liushui Alone Boat, Zhouzhi and Splash Ground, and two bridges were built across the south embankment. Since then, Su Gong Pavilion and its renamed mass pavilions, Fang Xin Pavilion and Hu Xin Pavilion have appeared. From the elegant and meaningful names of these pavilions, we can trace back to the scenery of the lake in those days. A picture of ups and downs, reflections on pavilions, birds singing and diving, and the sound of ships splashing is displayed in front of us. Since the brothers Su Shi, a great writer, got drunk here, Luohu was renamed West Lake. From Luohu to West Lake, it has experienced thousands of years of vicissitudes, and it is new and declining. It was once listed as one of the eight scenic spots in ancient Leizhou, "Green West Lake". At that time, the lake was connected with Tianning Temple, which was built in the Tang Dynasty. It is precisely because of the magnificent scenery that the ancient temple has won the reputation of "the first mountain in the world". Yuan Wei, a scholar in Ming Dynasty and a Nanwei in Haibei, made a detailed observation on the scenery of the West Lake. He wrote eight poems about lakes, dikes, pavilions, boats, fields, fish, the moon and rain. Among them, the poem "West Lake Pavilion" describes it like this: "The lake is flowing, and the pavilion is skillfully made. In the reflection of the blue sky, seven stars fall clearly. Four windows receive beautiful scenery, and high trees cover the sparse power. I'll take a break and throw the ball. " For various reasons, the West Lake once had a barren scene of "cows lying on grass and many sunsets". Since 1980s, the local government has taken the construction of West Lake Park as a spiritual civilization construction project. After years of renovation and embellishment, it has begun to recover and become more beautiful. People stood looking out from the Jiuqu Bridge, Sugong Pavilion, Biehu Pavilion and Yingxiu Pavilion across the lake. The lake is full of green willow waves. This park with subtropical and Jiangnan water town colors is immersed in green, with bright moon and cool breeze and abundant spring scenery. Coconut trees and Penang coconut trees are soaring, weeping willows and all kinds of flowers and trees have an indissoluble bond with the lake, competing with each other and colorful, forming a magnificent green gauze account, in which red walls and green tiles are faintly exposed and dragons and phoenixes fly over the eaves. In summer and autumn, green cicadas sing heartily from morning till evening. In order to increase the fun of tourists, the 200-meter-long fence near the park lake has recently been changed into a cultural corridor. It consists of a transparent fence and ten pavilion windows. Show books, poems, paintings, movies and pictures, introduce local stories and anecdotes, and publicize the party's principles and policies. The pavilion is antique and integrated with the park buildings, which is novel and unique. Ten Immortals Temple: Entering the Song Garden, a large stone carving "Leizhou Ten Immortals Hall" can be seen on the right, which is the former site dedicated to the Ten Immortals in the Song Dynasty. Founded in the tenth year of Song Xianchun (1274). Entering the temple, there is also a smaller stone carving of the Ten Immortals Hall, which is a precious cultural relic that has survived many wars. The inscription was written by Wen Tianxiang, the famous prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, with tears in his eyes. The manuscript was collected by the descendants of Qin Guan, one of the "Ten Sages". It was not until more than 500 years later (18O4) that Yao Wentian, a scholar from Guangdong Province, wrote this stone carving. People call this inscription a companion piece of Song Zhengqi. Guleizhou is located in a desolate place in southern Xinjiang. In ancient times, there were many people who demoted officials and pursued customers. In the Tang and Song Dynasties alone, seven prime ministers were demoted or stopped by, and many imperial officials graduated from the imperial examination with a rank of four or more. The imperial court exiled these dissidents to this wild land, which was not only a political punishment, but also an insult to personality. Of course, among the exiled people, there are also points of loyalty, treachery and good and evil. The "Ten Sages" are the representatives of the "sages". They are noble, upright, knowledgeable and have outstanding achievements, and they are not flattering people who stoop for the sake of fighting for rice. Listing them as "Ten Sages" reflects the wishes of Leizhou people. The ten saints are: Kou Zhun, Li Gang and Zhao Ding. As prime ministers, they are the assistant to the emperor, the commanding minister and the chief executive in charge of state affairs. -Li Guang, demoted to participate in politics before. This position is the deputy of the prime minister, and together with the prime minister, it is called "Zaizhi". —— Wang Yancuo, envoy of the Tang Dynasty, adviser to the emperor and master of central secrets. -Su Shi, bachelor of Hanlin, known as "the inner phase". -Su Zhe, assistant minister, court attendant, and advisor to the emperor. -Ren, Ren, is an admonition officer. -Qin Guan, Ren Zhengzi, in charge of important books and periodicals of the imperial court. -Hu Quan, editor-in-chief, National History, Records and Documents. In Wen Tianxiang's inscription for Tang Ji, Ding Wei and Zhang Chun, who were demoted to Leizhou at the same time as the ten sages, were named and blamed. Although he is also a high official and prime minister, his character is treacherous and evil, which is spurned by Leizhou people. People visit the Ten Immortals Temple and read the stone statues, charts and accompanying written materials depicted in the exhibition hall, which makes people deeply educated in patriotism and inspires people to be self-respecting and self-reliant. The time-honored Kougong Temple: "There is nowhere to complain in the abyss, and you cry youth by the river every year." This is a poem that Kou Zhun expressed his inner anger and sadness when he lived in the "Xiting". This good man, who experienced ups and downs in his official career, died in the first year of Tiansheng in less than two years after being demoted to Leizhou as a small general manager in the first year of Song Ganxing (1022). Leizhou became the final destination of his life. Although his body was transported back to Xijing for burial, Dayi stayed in Leizhou forever. In memory of this loyal and famous official, Ren Lei built a shrine in the "Xiting" where he lived. In the 5th year of Shaoxing in the Song Dynasty (1 135), Song Gaozong presented the tablet of "Jiazhong Temple". Today, people admire the statue standing in front of the temple with reverence, carefully read the stories displayed in the exhibition hall and stare at the furniture copied in his apartment. With tears in his eyes, he whispered his touching last words and lingered fondly beside the "Laiquanjing". This well will not dry up for thousands of years, and the spring water is clear. This is an ancient well, which Kougong Office drank. This well is called "Laiquan" because Kou Zhun was once named "Laigong". After more than 280 years in Yuan Renzong for four years (13 17), Yu Lian admired Kou Zhun for his cheap visit to Haibei South Road and cleaned the well again. Wang Zuo, a famous minister, inscribed the stone tablet "Laiquan Well". The corridors on both sides of Kougong Temple are full of poems praising Kou Zhun. Li Gang, one of the ten sages, and a group of senior officials and scholars in ancient times left many poems that made people cry and inspired their lives. Wei Han, an imperial envoy who entered the capital in the Ming Dynasty, said in a poem: "The security of Lang Temple is very strong, and Mount Tai and Qiao Yue are rugged. Why is Leiyang so old? I wonder how many people are in Song's room! Ships pass by Yuan Ye, and the stars move in the pool. I came to the south to ask Yazhou households, and Zeng Shicheng tasted the new look of the temple. " Yuan Jun Academy, which trains Leizhou literati: People can trace back to Yuan Jun Academy, the highest institution of learning in ancient Leizhou, while paying homage to Confucius Temple. It is the former site of "merging into one" with Kouci. Although Leizhou had a school of "one hall, one hall, one alley" before the Song Dynasty, it began to set up academies in the Xianchun period of the Southern Song Dynasty. Yuan Jun Academy was founded in the eighth year of Xianchun (1272). In Kougong Temple, in memory of Lai Guogong, it was named "Laiquan Academy" and later renamed "Pinghu" and "Yuan Jun". It was once listed as one of the six major academies in Guangdong. For hundreds of years, it has been taught by celebrities. The textbook takes poetry, calligraphy, etiquette, music, the Book of Changes and the Six Classics of Spring and Autumn as compulsory courses, which has played an important role in absorbing, absorbing and spreading the culture of the Central Plains and left a historical page for cultivating Leizhou scholars. There are ancient stone carvings in the courtyard for tourists to visit again. From the two couplets of the academy, we can reflect the rigorous educational atmosphere of that year: first, teach my disciples, set an example, learn first, and attach importance to the teacher's way, especially the teacher's way; Second, the Tao can not be separated from the sacred areas and sages. We should seek the essence of useful famous sayings from Wu Lun and the source from Su Gong Pavilion, which unites people's hearts: "Brothers gather in the north and south of the world; Smoke and water are boundless. " This is an old couplet of Su Gongting. Walking along the southwest direction from a Su Shi memorial archway with flat top scholars in the West Lake, you can see the statue of Su Dongpo in the school and a small and elegant building with red columns and colorful eaves floating on the lake. This is the Su Gong Pavilion built more than 400 years ago during Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty. It stands on an island in the middle of the lake, surrounded by blue waves on three sides and a straight path. In the seventh year of Song Shaosheng, Su Shi was demoted from Huizhou to Danzhou, passing through Leizhou, with a journey of thousands of miles. He was lucky enough to meet his brother Su Zhe, who was demoted to Lei, and he was both sad and happy. My brother went boating in Luohu another day and was attracted by the beautiful scenery of Luohu. He doesn't want to go home. After swimming, he went to Tianning Temple by the lake to rest. Sioux City is still quite interesting. Here and now, I wrote the word "Wanshan is the first". In memory of two great writers of Sur, Lei Min later changed Luohu to West Lake and built a pavilion to commemorate them. Although the name of its pavilion has been changed many times in the past 400 years, the significance of remembering Su Gong has remained unchanged. The present Sugong Pavilion was the basic structure when it was rebuilt in Jiaqing period of Qing Dynasty. Many eunuchs and literati in the past dynasties wrote books on pavilions and lintel corridors, such as lintel plaques and couplets, such as "Clouds hold the stars", "Fish is deep and happy", "Wan Li officials come to the sea, and Hangzhou is generally remembered in the countryside". At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, Xie Chen, the governor of Fujian and the governor of Leizhou, Fujian and Zhejiang, wrote a poem: "Chasing ministers in the same way, and heaven remains our neighbourhood. Neighbors have been honored, and the land is still covered with Tang Di velvet. Looking at the peaks in the north, the waves in the south meet the scales. Here, I will work harder and rely on who is not emotional. " Dragon Palace reflects the auspicious wishes of Leizhou ancestors: Leizhou is suffering from drought. Although there are underground water sources, there are no water conservancy facilities in history. In ancient times, there were often disasters such as dry wells, dead trees and abandoned fields. Leizhou ancestors pinned their hopes for drought relief on the gift and protection of "God". The people built the "Dragon King Temple" and prayed for rain from the Dragon King in the disaster year. The park rebuilt the "Dragon Palace" in the old site, and the top of the palace was decorated with dragon balls, resplendent and magnificent. There are statues of the Dragon King, painted dragon mothers, dragon daughters, shrimps, soldiers and crabs in the pavilion, which is full of the mythical artistic conception of the Crystal Palace, which not only increases the appreciation for tourists, but also reflects the auspicious wishes of Leizhou ancestors for "good weather". Nowadays, the vast rural areas of Leizhou have greatly changed the irrigation conditions, and the real "Dragon King" is the working people. Here and now, a look at Fu Si's past is different. Interesting exhibition halls and amusement places: The park has set up colorful exhibition halls from different angles of appreciation, such as emperor painted sculptures, female celebrities, four classical novels of China under construction, etc. The retired soldiers of China People's Liberation Army displayed in the amusement park aroused children's interest. I once participated in the great War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. Small trains, airplanes, skating rinks and rockeries such as "Leizufeng" and "Youlong Cave", and small rails span the suspension bridge of the cave. There are dance halls and restaurants in the park to provide services for tourists. (Lin Zongyan)
