The poetic Dongyuan of Jiangxinyu

The poetic Dongyuan of Jiangxinyu In the Southern Song Dynasty, the area of Jiangxinyu was about 156 acres, becoming a Buddhist paradise. By the beginning of this century, Jiangxinyu has reached 425 acres of Dongyuan and 568 acres of Xiyuan. Especially after the lake excavation and landscaping in the 1980s, in addition to the cultural landscape in the southeast of Jiangxinyu, the lake garden in the northeast has gradually taken shape. Now, a "poetic and picturesque solitary island" Dongyuan is displayed in front of tourists. To the north of the two towers and one temple scenic area, there are Gongqing and Bibo two lakes, between the lake and the lake shore there are pavilions, towers and pavilions, echoing the two towers and one temple... The surrounding green space is wide and flat, with the natural stretch of English gardens and the leisurely and unique Chinese landscaping. The granite cobblestone path winds through it, with trees, flowers and plants planted on both sides, or ancient banyan trees, or weeping willows, or reeds, or red plums, seemingly random, but actually carefully arranged, with a different view at every step, pleasing to the eye. If you stop and look closely, you will find that the plaques and stone carvings are all carefully selected ancient poems and famous calligraphy works, the beauty of nature and the beauty of art are cleverly integrated, either touching the scene and inspiring thoughts, or resonating with people and making them linger. The sea air gathers into the morning rain, and the autumn lamp half shines on the wave sound, its four seasons are different, the forest flowers are bright, the willows are dependent, the plum rain stops suddenly, the wheat waves are just right. - Qing Dynasty Wang Fuli's 'Guya Yaji Fu' Meet at the place of travel, the river village at sunset. The mountains are far away for wine, and the solitary island is for poetry. - Meng Haoran's 'Yongjia Pu meets Zhang Zirong' Meiyuan: Snow fairy is the most beautiful, plum blossom is the most fairy... The plum blossom is long and the snow is scattered... - Qing Dynasty Li Xiangkun's 'Guya Planting Plum Sequence' Xie Gongting: Where is the solitary island pavilion, in the water vapor at the end of the world. The old man is here, who is the same in the desperate situation? The hidden official meets the plum blessing, and the mountain remembers Xie Gong. I have already rented a flat boat, waiting for the autumn wind with a fishing rod. - Du Fu's 'Send Pei Er Qiuwei Yongjia' Ask the boat pavilion: Ask the fellow boat passenger, when will you arrive in Yongjia. - Meng Haoran's 'Stay in Yongjia River' Du Liang Pavilion: The city is as hot as fire, and this place is uniquely cool. - Southern Song Dynasty Xu Zhao's 'Gift Jiangxin Temple Qingshangren' Huaiqing Pavilion: Not connected with the world, but built a building from the sea. - Ming Dynasty Wenzhou champion Zhou Xuan Miaogao Pavilion: A fist stone in the middle of the river, sitting enough to kill time. The guest talks in the smoke and waves, and the Zen heart is between the water and the clouds. - Qing Dynasty Lin Zhaodou's 'Guya Times Rhyme' Lai Xue Pavilion: Has the snow come under Luofu Mountain, who is illuminated by the moon in the heart of the Yangtze River. - Southern Song Dynasty Wen Tianxiang By noon, next to the Kojian Pavilion, I saw a large row of stalls, dozens of tables and tables were already full of guests, ordered steamed yellow fish and taro balls, not bad. Finally, I left Dongyuan happily and satisfied. Jiangxinyu is worthy of the beautiful name of Oujiang Poetry Island and Solitary Island Penglai, better than many West Lakes in China, and directly chasing Hangzhou.
