The Yangtze River splits the Tianmen Peak like a giant axe, and the green river flows around the island.

Interpretation: Tianmen Mountain was cut off in the middle because it was washed away by the Chu River. The water flowing from the east turned back here and flowed north.

Looking at Tianmen Mountain-Li Bai

The Yangtze River splits the Tianmen Peak like a giant axe, and the green river flows around the island.

The green hills on both sides are neck and neck, and a boat meets leisurely from the horizon.

Explanation:

Tianmen Mountain was broken in the middle by the Chu River, and the clear water flowed eastward and turned back here.

The towering green hills on both sides of the river stand across the Yangtze River, and a solitary boat on the river is coming from the edge of the sun.

Creation background

According to Anqi's Notes on the Chronology of Li Bai's Complete Works and Yu Xianhao's Selected Works of Li Bai, Wang Tianmen Mountain was written at the turn of spring and summer in the 13th year of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (725). At that time, Li Baichu, who was 25 years old, left Bashu and took a boat to Jiangdong via Dangtu (now Anhui) for the first time.

This poem describes the poet's sight of Tianmen Mountain downstream: the first two sentences describe the grandeur of Tianmen Mountain and the momentum of the mighty river; The last two sentences describe the prospect of looking through the gap between the green hills on both sides of the strait, showing a dynamic beauty.

Through the description of Tianmen Mountain, the whole poem praises the magic and magnificence of nature, expresses the author's optimistic and heroic feelings when he first came to Bashu, and shows the author's free and unrestrained spirit. The artistic conception of the works is broad, the weather is majestic, the dynamic and static are in harmony with each other, and they set each other off into interest. They can turn static into dynamic and dynamic into static, showing a fresh interest.
