Nanjing yanziji travel guide

Nanjing Yanziji is indeed a familiar and unfamiliar place for many tourists, because it seems to have been introduced in history books, but not many people have been there. In fact, there are still many scenic spots worth visiting along Yanziji in Nanjing. The following is a detailed introduction for you.

Rocks generally refer to rocks protruding from the water's edge, and also refer to rock beaches in rivers. Chenglingji in Yueyang, Hunan, Caishiji in Maanshan, Anhui and Yanziji in Nanjing are known as the "Three Famous Stones in the Yangtze River" for their beautiful scenery and rich cultural landscape.

Let's talk about Nanjing Yanziji first. Yanziji is a huge rock that sank into the Yangtze River in Du Zhi. Because it is surrounded by water on three sides, like swallows spreading their wings, it is named Yanziji.

Yanji

There are few hills on both sides of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River where Yanziji is located. Zhishan, which is less than 40 meters high, has become a commanding height along the coast and a battleground for military strategists. Overlooking the Yangtze River to a certain extent, emperors, princes and literati of all dynasties also like to go to Yanziji to catch up with the past, leaving many inscriptions, cliffs and anecdotes.

Yubeiting

There is a pyramid-shaped roof pavilion with hexagonal double eaves on Yanziji, and the bright yellow glazed tiles are particularly conspicuous. This is the Royal Monument Pavilion. In the pavilion, the word Yanziji is written in regular script, which is the imperial pen of Qianlong, hence the name Yubeiting. Historically, when Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong went down to the south of the Yangtze River, they boarded Yanziji many times. They not only wrote an inscription for Yan, but also left a few poems.

Emperor Qianlong's Imperial Poems

The qilv "Interview with Yanzi Rock" on this stone wall says: "One peak flies into the Yangtze River like a swallow. I have been here four times and climbed four times. I'm pretty sure. Although there are words in the steep mountains and rivers, you miss them. Rotting rock is difficult to control, but you must rely on it. " It was written by Emperor Qianlong when he boarded Yanziji for the fourth time. To tell the truth, the imperial poems of Lord Ganlong are really ordinary, without poetry and taste like chewing wax.

Tao Xingzhi wrote an inscription, "You can't die if you think about it."

On the cliff by the Yanziji River, there is a stone tablet inscribed with the name "If you think about it, you won't die" and signed by Tao Xingzhi. At that time, the special terrain of Yanziji cliff near the water made it a desperate place for some disheartened and desperate people. Many people jump off buildings here, but they end their lives and leave endless pain for their loved ones.

1927, Tao Xingzhi, a famous educator who was establishing Xiaozhuang Normal School in Nanjing at that time, learned of this situation and initiated the erection of a warning monument in Yanziji, so that many people who committed suicide here chose to continue to face life at the last minute. The monument was originally made of wood, but it was later changed to stone carving.

Jiuzunshi

Yanziji Mountain is mostly conglomerate, which has been severely weathered for a long time, leaving many potholes on the mountain. The so-called "wine bottle stone" is a kind of stone shaped like an ancient wine vessel. Because Li Bai, a great poet in history, did come to Yanziji and once left the title of "swallowing the river and getting drunk", later generations linked the great poet with this "wine bottle stone" and interpreted a very touching legendary story.

Yan Zi Zhu Ji Yuan Zhang's Poems

Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, also boarded the Yanziji many times, leaving a nifty poem "Yanziji": "Yanziji bears a heavy load, and Changhong has a shot." The crescent moon is hooked on the horizon, tell me how many mountains and rivers there are. "

Gongxianshi stone carving

Gong Xian was a famous painter in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, and one of the eight masters in Jinling. His song "Going out to the East of Yan Zi Ji": "The river and the sea are boundless, and a spring water is flowing in the middle. The distant cape is almost gone, and the sunset is still confiscated. I'm sorry for my long guest appearance, but I'm very anxious at home. I didn't wake up at the beginning of the wine, and I smoked in Bai Ou. " This is quite beautiful. This is a typical picture in a poem.

Li ke's poems

Li E, a famous poet in Qing Dynasty, is the backbone of Ci school in western Zhejiang, and has made fruitful achievements in Ci creation. His song "Returning to the boat and looking at the Swallow Rock": "The stone is as heavy as water, hanging on the cliff, bright and clear. Who is sitting on the pavilion overlooking the river? lavatory
