Poems about the ancient city of Zhengding 1. What are the poems describing Zhengding

1. "Send the title to Zhending Mingyuan" Pavilion"

Author: Zhao Mengfu of the Yuan Dynasty

Before arriving at the new pavilion, I wrote a poem by Ming Yuan.

The wild geese are flying among the clouds, and the sun is setting late outside the mountains.

Later generations know that there is Mingyuan Pavilion in Zhengding, all because of this poem by Zhao Mengfu; they know the beauty of Mingyuan Pavilion, all because of "the geese are small in the clouds, and the sun sets late outside the mountains." These two poems show the loftiness, openness, emptiness and elegance of Mingyuan Pavilion in front of people. The words are natural, the words are complete and the meaning is endless. They are rare and beautiful poems. Now these two poems are inscribed on the pillars of the rockery pavilion in Longteng Garden behind Longxing Temple.

2. "Reflections on the Construction of the Hutuo River"

Author: Ming Yin Geng

Building a long embankment high and dredging the river deeply, how can the yellow grass and red sun be exhausted?

Don’t sweat dripping into Hutuo water, and drip more into Hutuo water.

This is a seven-character quatrain that is concise, catchy, and easy to understand. It not only describes the hardships of building a river, but is also full of the fun of life. Building high embankments, digging deep river channels, flying loess, and a red sun in the sky, the hardships are unspeakable. However, the poet changed his pen and said that you must not drip into the Hutuo River if you are sweating, otherwise there will be more water in the river. .

This poem truly came from the mouths of civilian laborers who built embankments and dredged rivers. It reflects people's happiness in repairing rivers and protecting their homes.

3. "Yanghe Tower"

Author: Yuan Hongdao, Ming Dynasty

The green sky covers the sky, and the rolling clouds rush into the sunset.

There are lotus flowers for twenty miles outside Guo, and their fragrance spreads throughout the city.

This poem describes the scenery the poet saw when he and his friends gathered for a drink at Yanghe Tower. Looking from afar from upstairs, the sky is blue and green. The waves of the Hutuo River rush along with the white clouds in the sky in the sunset. Lotus flowers are blooming everywhere outside the city walls, and their fragrance spreads in the wind all over the ancient city. The poems are concise and short, each sentence describes the scene, and the emotions emerge with the scene.

Yanghe Tower: Standing across the street on the south gate of Zhengding City, there are double doors for passage below and a tower above. The year of construction is unknown. It was rebuilt twice in the seventeenth year of Zhizheng in the Yuan Dynasty (1357) and in the seventeenth year of Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty (1504). Later it disappeared. The county government was rebuilt again in 2017.

4. "Hanhe"

Author: Liang Qingbiao of Qing Dynasty

The desert stream field is close to Yuanfeng, and the Hanhe River is covered with black clouds and dragons.

There is no morning or evening in the misty rain in the water village, and I listen to the evening bell at dusk for ten miles.

Han River is an important irrigation river in the northwest region of Zhengding County. The first two sentences of this poem talk about the scenery and historical legends of Han River. The boundless paddy fields on both sides of the Han River connect to the distant mountain peaks, and the thick clouds on the river seem to lock the dragons in the river. The last two sentences describe the people's living conditions.

People who are well-fed and well-clothed can quietly enjoy the melodious bells coming from a distance at dusk regardless of the day or night in the misty rain. This poem is concise and lively, with natural language and embodying emotions in the scenery, expressing the author's love for life in his hometown.

5. "Liu Xi Taoist Temple"

Author: Yuan Sadula

Qingxi in the north of the city leaves the cave gate, and the Taoist returns home.

The willow flowers are all over the ground and no one is sweeping them. Looking across the water are white clouds.

This poem describes the scene the poet saw when he passed the Liuxi Taoist Temple in the north of Zhengding City. A clear stream flows out from the cave door. There was no Taoist in the courtyard, only the afterglow of the setting sun, which made it look very dark. The ground is covered with willow flowers and no one has cleaned it. When I cross the stream in front of the door, I see a sky full of white clouds. The writing style of the whole poem is tortuous and clear, implicit but not explicit, and the imagery is deep and wonderful.
