Yunzhong photography

April in early spring is a spring season, and even the air is full of vitality and green vitality. Packing up, getting on the train and traveling with friends are the most appropriate decisions. I have always heard the name of Fan Jing before, and I have a certain understanding through my photography. I have always been deeply impressed by mystery, magic and exquisiteness. My heart is not as good as my action. With the warm spring breeze, I started this trip to Fan Jing in Guizhou. As we all know, Fan Jing, located in Tongren, Guizhou, is the main peak of Wuling Mountain and a famous Buddhist mountain. When visiting Fan Jing, most people will go straight to the top of the mountain. In fact, at the foot of Fanjing Mountain, there are many pearls in Zhong Ling's beautiful natural landscape. "Cloud House" is one of these pearls.

"Cloud House", what a poetic and romantic name it is. Listening to the name makes people think that there must be a dreamlike landscape legend here. "Yunshe" Tujia Caotang was once the place where immortals lived. The immortals were moved by the hardworking and brave spirit of Tujia people, moved to the Xianren Cave in Houshan, and gave the fertile land to Tujia people. Tujia people named the stockade "Cloud House" to commemorate the immortal's achievements. It means "the house in the cloud, where the fairy lives". In fact, the word "cloud house" comes from Tujia language, which means "the place where monkeys drink water".

At the foot of Fan Jingshan, by the faint Taiping River, there is a natural village like a paradise, which is Yunshe Village, Taiping Township, jiangkou county. In the past, Yunzhai used to be a humble Tujia hut. Yunshe is 7 kilometers away from Jiangkou County and 23 kilometers away from Fanjing South Gate. The total area of this village is 4 square kilometers. There are 439 households 17 17 people, and 98% of the villagers are descendants of Yang, which is the largest village in Jiangkou. Yunshe Tujia still retains its own national customs and habits, so it is called "the first Tujia village in China".

Yunshe village is located on a flat dam, with its back against the green hills. In front of the village is the Taiping River, and the "Paradise Valley" with clear streams is definitely a treasure trove of geomantic omen. The antique fighting room is the most typical Tujia wooden structure here. Mottled bluestone paths meander in front of and behind every house. These winding alleys are like a maze, connecting every family in Yunshe. Without a local guide, it is almost difficult to go out. The beautiful village head proudly said that because of this, Yunshe has never been invaded by bandits.

In the middle of the village is a deep pool about ten meters wide and thirty or forty meters long, called Shenlongtan. From a bird's eye view, it looks like a swimming fish. The pool water is clear and sweet, warm in winter and cool in summer, and can be directly drunk. The water color in different seasons and climates is dark blue, turquoise, or purple in green, as crystal clear as jade. Strolling through longtan lake, you will have a lot of imagination. ...

Longtan is like a blue sky. The sky in the water is so blue, white clouds are fluttering gently, and eagles are soaring among the clouds ... Is this a clever Tujia girl who cut out a piece of blue sky and spread it in the Longtan of Yunshe?

Longtan is like a mirror. In the mirror, you can see the Sanhe courtyard and Caotang papermaking workshop of Tujia people. You can see young Tujia men and women singing love songs on both sides of Longtan; If you are lucky, you can also witness the lively scene of Tujia wedding procession carrying the bride with gongs and drums.

The mystery of Longtan has been recorded for thousands of years in history. "Guizhou Tongzhi": "Yunshe Spring is in the north of the province (Tongren Fucheng). When a year is dry, prayer is rain. " Daoguang's Tongren Prefecture Chronicle said: "Yunshe Spring (provincial logistics department) is ten miles north and withered at the age of five. Blood is painted on it, that is, rain." There are three strange conclusions in Shenlongtan: one is unfathomable; Second, it can forecast the weather; Third, irregular springs flow backwards.

Here, the Tujia people in Yunshe still retain simple and elegant customs, traditional farming, Tujia brocade, hand-woven skills and so on. "Yunzhai papermaking, Cai Lun as the teacher". Paper-making, one of the four great inventions in China, still retains the drainage, workshop and indigenous production technology circulated in the Tang Dynasty.

The only remaining ancient paper mill in the village. Tujia ancestors learned how to make paper after learning from Cai Lun, and they have been using it for hundreds of years. As one of the main economic income pillars of Yunshe Village, ancient papermaking has always been deeply loved by villagers. This precious traditional craft has been accompanied by Yunshe Village for more than 300 years. The elevation of Yunshe Village is more than 1.500 meters, with high mountains and dangerous mountains, lush bamboo forests, Longtan in the village, Taiping River in front of the village, and flowing water full of songs all the year round. During the reign of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, the ancestors of Yunshe valued this land of geomantic omen and moved here to make a living by making paper, and the paper-making technology was passed down from generation to generation.

Very special barrel house. Tujia Douwu is the most distinctive Tujia ancient building in Yunshe. Its structure is generally composed of a main room, a sloping room, a wooden building and a door. It is also called a stacking bucket. Generally speaking, the overall building of Yunshe Doushi is square, high in the north and low in the south, with the main room above, divided into nave and left and right wing rooms, and the building below. Some are connected around, and the middle is vacant, forming a quadrangular patio. (There is a big word on the left and right of the gate, which is "Fu" and "Shou")

The ancient houses in Yunshe are mostly dry-column buildings, including tubular houses, three-dimensional courtyards and quadrangles. The corners are upturned with white edges and the corridors are connected. Blue tiles are like scales, magnificent and very simple and spectacular.

In particular, the carved railings of Diaojiaolou, although blackened by the smoke of the years, are ingenious in conception and exquisite in craftsmanship, which is really amazing.

In terms of modeling design, there are paintings of square, round, oblique, square, longevity, flowers, animals and various fruits. Although they are very different, they are all lifelike, which fully embodies the industrious wisdom and love and pursuit of life of Tujia people in past dynasties.

The Tujia nationality in Yunshe has a long history of thousands of years. During the Warring States Period, "Zi Chu destroyed Ba, and the five brothers of Ba Zi flowed into Guizhou. In the Han Dynasty, there was a world named You, Chen, Wu and Wu, each of which was the length of a stream, and was called Wu Ren. " The Tujia people in Yunshe lived here for the ancestors of Chen Shui. Today's characteristics and uniqueness lie in that through historical evolution, Tujia ancestors interacted, merged and intermarried with other ethnic ancestors, and Yunshe Tujia still retains its own national inheritance and customs. This is a thousand-year history and cultural representation of Tujia people in China.

In the old house with all-wood structure, you can clearly see all kinds of big-character slogans during the Cultural Revolution, which became the imprint left here by that era.

County name Hongnong was established in the fourth year of Ding Yuan in the Western Han Dynasty (BC 1 13), and its jurisdiction is roughly the same as that of Luoyi, Xichuan and Luoshui, Shechuan and Danjiang basins in Shaanxi. After the Jin Dynasty, the jurisdiction of Hongnong County gradually narrowed, but the line from Huashan, Shaanxi Province to Sanmenxia, Henan Province has always been a striking area in Hongnong County, because it is the birthplace of the world's most famous Yang, and Yang is the noblest and most respected in the eyes of people surnamed Yang. Many Yangjia genealogies trace their distant ancestors back to Hongnongyang.

Many ancient houses and ancestral halls built in Ming and Qing Dynasties are scattered among mountains and rivers. Walking in a deep lane and on a winding and narrow bluestone road is like walking into that long time.

In the evening just after a drizzle, the cloud shed has a charming charm of lightness and shyness like a girl. The endless ridge is not towering, looming in the clouds, full of lush eyes, clear water like a mirror, green and tender leaves, and even the flowers on the roadside are elegant and casual, so there is a delicate and charming competition. Every step, flowers and plants are full of comfortable and leisurely atmosphere.
