What is the origin of Du Fu's Caotang?

Du Fu was a famous poet in Tang Dynasty. Caotang was his temporary residence after the Anshi Rebellion. That place is located in the western suburbs of Chengdu, with beautiful environment, beside Huanhuaxi, so it won Du Fu's favor. The following is what I collected for you. Welcome to reading.

At that time, the thatched cottage built by Du Fu had already been destroyed by wind and rain, and now later generations are building thatched cottage here to commemorate this period of Du Fu.

Let's talk about the origin of Du Fu's Caotang. It turned out to be a broken thatched cottage. When it is windy and rainy, it will leak the wet bed and make it difficult to sleep. At that time, Tang Suzong was able to return to Chang 'an in the "An Shi Rebellion", and Du Fu squeezed out and framed the minister in North Korea, which led to Tang Suzong's anger and transferred him. Therefore, Du Fu felt that his ambition was hopeless, and the people suffered greatly in the battle and were exploited by this official. So he was extremely disappointed with being an official and left angrily.

Du Fu's family is wandering around and their life is extremely difficult. Later, thanks to the help of friends, Du Fu lived a stable life and was no longer displaced. Moreover, the scenery in Chengdu is very charming. Du Fu, who had lived in the war for a long time, felt that this was a paradise, so he decided to settle here, but his family was poor. Thanks to the help of relatives and friends, he was able to build a thatched cottage. So Du Fu chose to live by the water near Huanhuaxi, and asked local celebrities for many flowers and trees to cultivate them carefully. Although the house is simple, it is elegant.

A thatched cottage can't hide Du Fu's talent. During his few years here, Du Fu wrote 200 or 300 widely circulated poems, including Delighting in Rain on a Spring Night, Autumn Wind Breaking the Cottage, and Both Banks of the Yellow River Recovered by the Imperial Army.

Later, in order to commemorate Du Fu, a beautiful garden was built here, which also became the museum of Du Fu's Caotang, introducing Du Fu's life and achievements.

Brief introduction of du fu's thatched cottage

There are now two Du Fu Cottage, one in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, and the other in Sichuan Province, only in Mianyang City. Today, as a key tourism development project in Sichuan Province, Santai Du Fu Caotang, located in Santai County, Mianyang, Sichuan Province, has been accepted by more people. Known as the second largest Du Fu Memorial Hall in Sichuan Province, the first is of course Chengdu Du Fu Cottage, but its popularity is far less than that of Chengdu Du Fu Cottage. First of all, I would like to introduce you to Mianyang Santai Du Fu Caotang.

Santai Du Fu Caotang, located in Niutoushan, west of Santai County, Mianyang City, Sichuan Province, is an important part of Niutoushan Park in Santai County. As the memorial place of Mr. Du Fu, a great and famous patriotic epic poet, the whole thatched cottage is picturesque and attaches great importance to ecological construction and garden construction. A lot of scenery has been added without destroying the original thatched cottage, and a brief introduction of Du Fu's life has been noted. In addition, Santai County also has an exhibition of Mr. Du Fu's life story and poetry works, which can create a delicate and unique thatched cottage. The whole thatched cottage was built on the site of the thatched cottage of the Ministry of Industry in the Ming Dynasty and rebuilt in the 1980s. The whole hut is a retro garden, which attracts tourists more widely.

In addition, Du Fu Cottage, located on the Huanhua River in Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan Province, has also become an iconic museum-style thatched cottage. It is a museum built by the state to commemorate Mr. Du Fu, a great historical poet known as "Poet Sage", and is regarded as a holy place in the history of China literature. Therefore, it is located in the location of Du Fu Caotang, also known as Huanhuacao Hall. However, the historical Du Fu Cottage ceased to exist after Du Fu left Chengdu. According to historical records, Wei Zhuang, a poet of the Five Dynasties, rediscovered the former site of Du Fu's Caotang and rebuilt it. Later, Du Fu Cottage was restored many times in several dynasties, so it has been preserved to this day and eventually built into a memorial museum, which has become a historical and cultural shrine and a famous tourist attraction.

Du fu's evaluation

Du Fu was a great poet in Tang Dynasty. His poems connected the transitional period from the prosperous Tang Dynasty to the middle Tang Dynasty. From his personal experience and even the national justice, Du Fu's change of life ambition and his obsession with loyalty to the monarch and worrying about the country have been reflected. The poems written by Du Fu have vivid images, passionate feelings and worries, which show the great changes in this transitional period.

Therefore, Du Fu is called a poet saint, and together with Li Bai, he is called Du Li. His poems have left a far-reaching impact on later generations, so his poems are called "the history of poetry". Du Fu especially sympathized with the people in the war and always criticized the dark and decadent political atmosphere. He is even willing to sacrifice himself to change this phenomenon, so his poems always run through the main line of worrying about the country and the people, which shows its greatness.

Du Fu loves the great rivers and mountains of the motherland very much. His early poems are all about his lofty aspirations and descriptions of great rivers and mountains. He hates evil and loves the people, so his poems are permeated with rich social content and distinctive characteristics of the times.

Du Fu, a famous poet in Tang Dynasty, commented that "Du Li's articles are brilliant". Although Du Fu did not receive much attention before his death and his poems were not well promoted, he left an indelible influence on later generations and had a certain position in the poetry world, thus affecting the creative style of later poets.

Lu Xun's evaluation of Du Fu is that "Du Fu seems to be not an ancient man, as if he still lives in our pile today." "Du Fu is the backbone of the Chinese nation!" It can be seen that in the history of our country, Du Fu's influence is deep and the influence of village survival is great.
