Yellow crane tower 1

The Yellow Crane Tower is located at the top of the Snake Mountain in Wuchang. Since ancient times, it has been called "Three Famous Buildings in the South of the Yangtze River" together with Yueyang Tower in Hunan and Wangtengting Pavilion in Jiangxi. The Yellow Crane Tower was built in the second year of the Three Kingdoms (AD 223), with a history of 1700 years. In the first year of Tang Yongtai (AD 765), the Yellow Crane Tower had begun to take shape. However, wars and fires occur frequently, and the Yellow Crane Tower is repeatedly built and abandoned. The last "Lou Qing" was built in the seventh year of Tongzhi (A.D. 1868) and destroyed in Guangxu 10 (A.D. 1884), and has not been rebuilt for nearly a hundred years.

The original site of Yellow Crane Tower is located in Sheshan Yellow Crane Tower, Wuchang, Hubei Province. Because of its long history, its name has a mysterious story. Among them, the story recorded in "Gratitude Record" in Ming Dynasty is the most widely circulated. The story roughly describes a hotel opened by the original Xin family on the head of the Yellow Crane Tower in Sheshan, and a Taoist often asks for wine. In order to thank him for his thousand cups, he drew a crane on the wall and told him before he left. Since then, the restaurant has been full of guests and business is booming. After ten years, the Taoist priest came back and played with a flute. The Taoist priest set foot on the yellow crane and went straight to the sky. In memory of the immortal who helped him get rich, Xin's family built a building in his place and named it "Yellow Crane Tower". According to legend, this Taoist is Lv Dongbin, one of the Eight Immortals.

After the founding of New China, the Yellow Crane Tower was rebuilt and restored in June 198 1 10 in the early 1980s. The project lasted for 4 years and was completed in June 1985 and opened to Chinese and foreign tourists.

The main building of the Yellow Crane Tower is based on Tongzhi Building in Qing Dynasty, and is built by using modern architectural technology. Reinforced concrete frame imitation wood, five cornices, pointed roof, golden glazed tile roof. Total height is 5 1.4m, bottom width is 30m, and top width is 18m. Large murals, couplets and cultural relics are arranged on all floors of the whole building.

The Yellow Crane Tower is a five-story building with nine floors inside. In ancient China, odd numbers were called positive numbers and even numbers were called negative numbers. "9" is the first positive number, which is homophonic with the Chinese character "dragon" and has everlasting meaning. The so-called "Ninth Five-Year Plan Supreme" and the Yellow Crane Tower also showed their extraordinary influence.

The five-story structure of the main building of the Yellow Crane Tower is as follows: the first floor is the hall, with the famous "White Cloud Yellow Crane Map" hanging, which shows the floating scene of the immortal leaving by yellow crane; On the second floor, the owner wants to introduce the history of the Yellow Crane Tower, which has an inscription on the wall.

2. guiyuan buddhist temple

Guiyuan buddhist temple is a Zen temple, which was built by Master Bai on the site of Wang's Kwai Garden, a Buddhist temple in Hanyang, in the Qing Dynasty 15 (1658). It has a history of more than 300 years. It is also known as the four jungles of Wuhan with Baotong Temple, Lianxi Temple and Zhengjue Temple.

The temple is located at the west end of Cuiwei Road, Hanyang District, Wuhan City, Zhongjia Village, Hanyang City, covering an area of 46,900 square meters, with more than 200 temples and houses and a construction area of 200,000 square meters. Jade Buddha and its temple buildings, Buddhist classics and flawless Buddha statues survived the catastrophe of the "Cultural Revolution", among which the 500 golden arhats enshrined in Luohan Hall are one of the main features of the temple.

Guiyuan Temple was founded by two lay brothers, Bai Guang and Zhu Feng, whose ancestral homes were in Zhejiang. They went to xingguo temple, Hanyang to study Tibetan scriptures, and at the same time they practiced medicine and did good deeds for three years. Sun Yaoguang and Dai Tiancheng, wealthy businessmen in Hanyang, were deeply moved, so people paid for the construction of Guiyuan Buddhist Temple. The word "Guiyuan" comes from the Buddhist sutra "Lengyan Sutra": "There are no two ways to Guiyuan, but there are many convenient ways", which means there are many ways to facilitate people. Zen means thinking, observing and abandoning evil. Zen is one of the schools that combine Mahayana Buddhism with Confucianism.

The trees in the temple are lush and green, which is in harmony with the towering temples, pavilions and pavilions. There are five courtyards in the east, south, west, north and middle, and there are 28 existing halls and pavilions. Looking down, the plane layout is "cassock".

Scenic spots in the temple:

☆ Ursa Hall: This hall was built in the 18th year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty (166 1) and has undergone many repairs. At present, the Hall of the Great Heroes was rebuilt in the thirty-fourth year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty (1908). After several years of maintenance, it is very spectacular. In the center of the hall is a statue of Sakyamuni, and on both sides are his disciples Ananda and Ye Jia, both of which are sculptures of Tuosha. Sakyamuni's "sitting with his right shoulder staggered" is very solemn, quiet and dignified. The backlight behind the Buddha statue is the pattern of "Five Dragons Embracing the Saint" carved by camphor wood. In front of the Buddha statue, there are statues of Wei Tuo, Maitreya and Dizang. Behind the Buddha statue, there is a group of island Guanyin statues. I saw Guanyin standing barefoot on the island, the dragon girl and the boy standing around, and behind her was a mud cliff as high as eight feet, with blue waves and rough waves. The whole statue fell forward. People looked up and saw the sleeves of Guanyin floating to you as if on the turbulent waves, which increased the appeal of religious art.

☆ Wei Tuo Hall: Located in front of Mahayana Hall, it is dedicated to a woodcarving statue of Wei Tuo, dressed in armor and holding a pestle. It stands tall and upright, and uses the image of a military commander in ancient China to express the image of the protector of the "Four Heavenly Kings and Thirty-two Generals" in ancient Indian mythology. This woodcarving is carved from a whole piece of camphor wood, and the line cutting method is Tang carving style. It is the artistic treasure of Guiyuan Temple and the precious heritage of China sculpture art. ..

☆ The Sutra Pavilion: built in 1920 to 1922, it is a pavilion-style building with two floors and five bays. It is about 25 meters high, with a big ridge on the top of the animal's head, claws on the fish horn and cornices on the bucket arch. Simple and exquisite, with four pillars in the sky, two phoenix in the morning, and five dragons playing with pearls. The whole building, doors and windows, carved with red lacquer, is exquisite, spectacular and resplendent. It is the only ancient brick-wood building in Wuhan. There are many Buddhist relics here, besides Tibetan scriptures, there are Buddha statues, implements, stone carvings, woodcuts, calligraphy and painting inscriptions and foreign classics.

☆ Luohantang: It was built in Daoguang period of Qing Dynasty, destroyed by soldiers in Xianfeng period (1852), rebuilt in Guangxu period (1895) and completed in 1902, with a history of 200 years. Luohan Hall is in the shape of "Tian", and the four mouths of "Tian" are four small courtyards, which provides good ventilation and lighting conditions for the huge and deep hall. Luo Han is arranged according to the word "Tian" Although there are more than 500 statues in the temple, there is no sense of crowding. This architectural model is both ingenious and reasonable.

The five hundred arhats of Luohantang were carved by Wang and his son in Huangpi County, Hubei Province in nine years, and were processed and refined on the basis of the rubbings of five hundred arhats of Hengshan Temple in Nanyue. The process adopts "bodiless lacquer plastic", also known as "golden body holding sand statue". First, the mud tire is molded into a model, then the raw lacquer of the grid cloth is coated with plastic layer by layer, which is called lacquered cloth empty plastic, and finally it is decorated with gold powder. Its characteristics are moisture-proof, moth-proof and durable. In the past two hundred years, Luohantang was hit by floods several times, and it floated everywhere, but after the water receded, Luohantang remained intact, showing superb carving skills.

"Counting Luohan" is an interesting thing for people to visit Luohan Hall. Legend has it that people start with an arhat at will, and then count down their existing ages in turn. The identity, expression and action of this last arhat can show the fate of the numerator. This activity adds a lot of fun for people to visit Luohan Hall.

☆ Dizang Hall: In the Dizang Hall outside Luohan Hall, the gods of Dizang are enshrined, and the woodcut shrines in the hall are even better. In the meantime, the arched cornices, fish claws, phoenix rising sun, flying dragon rollers, embossed hanging columns and flower figures are all extremely exquisite and are rare artistic treasures in China.
