Old photo album-Xuanwu Lake, Jinling Pearl

To go to Xuanwu Lake, it is natural to take Xuanwu Gate, because climbing the city wall will give you a panoramic view of this "Jinling Pearl".

Unfortunately, contrary to expectations, the side near the lake was completely blocked by tall and dense pine trees.

Xuanwu Lake, with Purple Mountain in the east and Ming City Wall in the west, was called Sangbo and Houhu in ancient times. The inner ring of the lake is connected by dikes and bridges in Yingzhou, Lingzhou, Liangzhou, Cuizhou and Zhou Zhou, and there are mountains and water everywhere. Its human history can be traced back to the pre-Qin period. It was turned into a royal garden in the Six Dynasties and a yellow book hall in the Ming Dynasty, both of which were forbidden to the royal family. It was not until the late Qing Dynasty that the Nanyang Missionary Association was held that the door of the rich was opened.

? Enter Xuanwu Lake via Xuanwu Gate South Wharf and arrive in Zhou Huan first. Zhou Huan is named after Yingzhou, and is known as "smoke willow around the state".

? Entering Zhou Huan, there is a rockery of Taihu Stone, and there is a sign called "Boy worships Guanyin Stone", but under the shade of flowers and trees, you can't tell which is the boy and which is Guanyin. I only heard that the boy worshipped two Guanyin stones, which were relics of Huashigang in the Northern Song Dynasty. The collection of Xu Dafu, the junior high school king of Ming Dynasty, moved here in 1954.

Looking at Nanjing Railway Station from the north of Zhou Huan, the tall building on the left should be Shuguang International Hotel. Nanjing Railway Station is located in the north of Nanjing, belonging to Xuanwu District, with Xuanwu Lake in front and Hongshan in the back. Excellent geographical location and beautiful landscape environment.

? Along the southwest line of Xuanwu Lake in Hubei, the first thing you see is Zifeng Building. Zifeng Building is located in Nanjing Gulou Square, with 89 floors above ground, a total building height of 450 meters and 3 floors underground. Like Shanghai Jinmao Tower, it was designed by SOM Design Office, a world expert in skyscraper design. Its height is said to be the first in Jiangsu Province, the sixth in China and the tenth in the world, and it is a landmark building in Nanjing.

Looking south at Jiming Temple from Zhou Huan. Jiming Temple, one of the oldest Brahma temples in Nanjing, is located on Jilong Mountain, 62 meters high. Jilong Mountain, facing Xuanwu Lake in the north, is named after the round mountain like a chicken coop.

Although the lunar solar terms have just passed the autumnal equinox, the maple leaves around the mainland have turned red early.

? Fengheyuan, a restaurant built around the continent on 20 10, is built near the water, with wooden pavilions and some architectural relics of the Six Dynasties.

Lingqiao is far away. Lingqiao is the only way from Zhou Huan to Lingzhou. Lingzhou is located in the southeast of Xuanwu Lake, far away from Cuizhou. The east is near Zhongshan, and there are often purple and golden clouds on the top of the mountain. Since ancient times, it has been known as "Shan Lan of Lingzhou". Lingzhou is named after the water chestnut.

? The Rose Garden is located at the eastern end of Zhou Huan. There are more than 5,000 plants and more than 200 varieties of roses planted in the park, including tree-shaped roses, vine-shaped roses, large-flowered roses and miniature roses. There is a 200-year-old ginkgo tree in the center of the garden, and the electronic bell tower at the door is donated by people in Aichi Prefecture, Japan.

? The Rose Garden is the easternmost part of Zhou Huan. At noon, it did not turn south from Lingzhou and left the garden, but entered Yingzhou to move on.

Overlooking Cuizhou from Lingqiao. Cuizhou is named after being covered with bamboo and cedar.

Looking back to the southwest, Jiming Temple and Zifeng Tower can be clearly seen in the distance.

Xuanwu Lake is full of lotus flowers, and the spectacular scenery of "infinite lotus leaves, lotus flowers reflecting different colors of the sun shadow" can be seen everywhere. However, after all, autumn is getting deeper and deeper, there are fewer flowers, and residual lotus can be seen from time to time.

? Cross the Moon Shadow Bridge and enter Yingzhou. Sakura Island, named after cherries spread all over the mainland in the past, was once a palace tribute. "Sakura Flower Sea" is a major landscape of Sakura Island.

? Yingzhou promenade, located in the northwest of Yingzhou, was built in 1954, with a length of more than 300 meters. At first it was a bamboo-wood structure, and later it was changed to a reinforced concrete structure.

? Yingzhou cherry orchard

? The fruit full of trees looks like longan, but what is missing is not …

Cross the white bridge and go to the Lama Temple and Nonata.

The Lama Temple, located at the eastern end of Zhou Huan, was built in 1937. It is three rooms wide and is located on a mountain with only one roof. The door is engraved with "Jue Yuan Zongnuona Master Buddha Memorial Hall". Nonata, imitating the style of Tang and Song Dynasties, has nine grades and six sides, and the bottom four sides are engraved with the inscription "Master Puyouta" written by Ju Zheng, a veteran of the Kuomintang and the president of the judiciary. This temple and tower were built in memory of Master Nona. Because it is not a temple in the strict sense, but a memorial hall, there are no lamas and incense in the temple.

"Jue Yuan Zongnuonashifo Memorial Hall"

? Nanuohua Cang Jing she

? Nano (1865- 1936), a native of Xikang, was recognized as the seventh reincarnated living Buddha at the age of seven./kloc-0 arrived in Ning in the spring of 929. He was appointed as a member of the Mongolia-Tibet Committee and a legislator of the Legislative Yuan. In addition to religious activities, he also devoted himself to national unity, repeatedly stated the important policies of Kangzang, and put forward suggestions and propositions. After Nano's death, the National Government issued a commendation order to posthumously award Nano the title of "Master Puyou". His ashes were later taken to Lushan Mountain by his master according to his wishes and buried in the Nuonata Courtyard in Xiaotianchi Mountain.

? Cross the Sakura Bridge and return along the boulevard in the west of Zhou Huan.

? water lily

? Guo Pu Memorial Hall, built on 20 10, is located in the north of Guopudun at the western end of Zhou Huan. Guo Pu was a famous litterateur and exegetist in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. He is well-read, good at ancient Chinese characters and variant forms, good at divination of yin and yang, and has annotations on Erya, Shan Hai Jing and Chu Ci. He is good at calculating the five elements of the calendar by yin and yang. Because of his accurate divination, he is called "Guo Xian". He was killed because he didn't bode well for General Wang Dun's rebellion. After the rebellion in Wang Dun was pacified, Governor Hongnong was posthumously awarded. When Song Huizong caught up with Wen Xibo, Yuan Shundi sealed Ling Ying Hou. Guo Pudun is the cenotaph of Guo Pu.

? Water lily is a new variety introduced from Xuanwu Lake Park, and it is said that it will bloom in the first frost season. Taken at the rockery waterfall in Zhou Huan.

Due to the time arrangement at that time, Xuanwu Lake only took the third place, and Cuizhou and Liangzhou did not enter. Some regrets are still reserved for next time.
