Asking for the guide words of Zhejiang scenic spots
Hangzhou, the capital of Zhejiang Province, is located in the north of Zhejiang Province, with a superior geographical position. To its north is Shanghai, which is more than 200 kilometers away from Hangzhou, and it takes more than 3 hours to take the expressway. To the west is Suzhou, which takes more than 2 hours by car. These three cities have close ties, convenient transportation and developed logistics, and their positions on the map just form a triangle, which is the foundation and core part of the economic center of the Yangtze River Delta.
Hangzhou is rich in tourism resources. In addition to the West Lake, there is also a lake-Qiandao Lake. Qiandao Lake is an artificial lake located in Chun 'an County, Hangzhou. There is a river called Xin 'anjiang in Chun 'an County. Before liberation, all the streams in Chun 'an flowed into Xin 'an River in vain and were not used. In 1950s, Xin 'anjiang Reservoir, a large reservoir, was built here to irrigate farmland and generate electricity. The dam of the reservoir surrounds the stream, forming a large lake the size of Singapore. There are more than 65,438+0,000 islands in the lake, hence the name Qiandao Lake. Qiandao Lake is a national 4A-level scenic spot with beautiful scenery. Its lake water comes from the mountain springs flowing into the surrounding forests, and its water quality is excellent. Known as "the best water in the world". The water intake of Nongfu Spring, the first mineral water brand in China, is located 50 meters deep in Qiandao Lake. Do you remember its advertising slogan-Nongfu Spring is a little sweet?
The ancients said, "There is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below." If Suzhou is compared to a small jasper, then Hangzhou is a refined lady. The charm of Hangzhou not only makes the guests here come from thousands of miles away, but also makes so many foreigners come here. Kyle Poirot, an Italian traveler of the Yuan Dynasty, came to Hangzhou. Perhaps people in China at that time seldom saw foreigners and felt fresh, so people from the emperor to the common people treated foreigners as guests. He was moved to tell everyone how good Hangzhou was. So that in his memoir The Travels of Marco Polo, which he wrote after returning to Italy, he only used one page to introduce Suzhou, which is also a paradise, and used 16 page to introduce Hangzhou, comparing Hangzhou to "the most beautiful and luxurious city in the world".
Although Hangzhou is a paradise, it was originally a land of barbarians. Friends may wonder how Hangzhou can be a barbarian land. Because Chinese culture originated in the Yellow River valley, such as today's Henan and Shandong areas. At that time, there were many rivers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the ancient traffic was underdeveloped, which led to the backward economy and culture in the Central Plains. Therefore, it is called "the land of barbarians", and the people here are savage and tenacious, also known as "Na Man". Let's see how this traditional word "person" is written. There is a word "worm" here, which refers to the breeding industry of ancestors at that time-sericulture; In the middle is a word "Yan", which refers to the person who bears the cocoon; There is a twisted silk on each side of the word, which is two loads of silk. The word "human" is a hieroglyphic, depicting the scene of our ancestors carrying a cart of silk down the mountain. So the barbarians at that time were people who planted silkworms and raised silkworms. In fact, our ancestors were very clever and hardworking, so it is unfair to call them barbarians.
Look at the houses of Zhejiang people, which are completely different from those we saw in Suzhou. The houses built by Zhejiang people are all small European-style houses, while the houses built by Suzhou people are all white walls and tiles, with simple appearance. We saw a spherical steel needle installed on the roof of every household. What is this for? By the way, lightning rod. Because Zhejiang is near the sea, typhoons often come to form thunderstorms. Lightning rods are installed to guide lightning into the ground to protect houses from lightning damage. If you look carefully, you will find a small room on the top floor of every house. What is this for? It's actually quite simple. You just need to see what is planted in the field. There are all kinds of mulberry trees in the field. These mulberry trees are short and called short-horned mulberry trees. Farmers here basically do not grow rice. Why? This is related to the topography of Zhejiang. There are various landforms in Zhejiang, with hills and mountains accounting for 70%, waters accounting for 10% and plains accounting for 20%, so Zhejiang has the saying that "seven mountains, one water and two fields". There are more mountains, but less arable land. If the limited fields are used to grow rice, we can only fill our stomachs. Therefore, Zhejiang people plant mulberry trees with high economic value and develop silk breeding industry. So Hangzhou has been the capital of silk since ancient times.
We know that Hangzhou has a long history. Together with Beijing and Nanjing, it is called the seven dynasties of China. So how did the name Hangzhou come from? According to legend, more than 4000 years ago, Dayu controlled water and landed in Hangzhou, where "Hangzhou" means "Ark". Later generations called the place where Dayu landed "Yuhang" and later rewritten it as "Yuhang", "Redundancy" and "Yu". Now there is another Yuhang District in Hangzhou. After Qin Shihuang unified the world, he set up a county government in Hangzhou, which was then called "Qiantang"; It was officially called "Hangzhou" in the Sui Dynasty until now. During the Sui Dynasty, Yang Di dug the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, starting from Beijing in the north and reaching Hangzhou in the south, connecting five major water systems, including the Yangtze River and Qiantang River, with a total length of 1794 km. It is the longest canal in the world, together with the Great Wall of Wan Li, known as the two major ancient projects in China. The Grand Canal has greatly promoted the economic development in the south of the Yangtze River and laid the foundation for the development of Hangzhou.
From being called the land of barbarians to being called the city of heaven, the Southern Song Dynasty played the most important role in Hangzhou. Song Dynasty was a weak dynasty in China, and it was always in trouble. 1 127 years, nomads from the south invaded, Kaifeng, the capital, fell, Song Huizong and Song Qinzong fell, and the Northern Song Dynasty perished, which is known as the shame of Jingkang. You may not have any perceptual knowledge about this history, but I believe you have all watched the TV series Legend of the Condor Heroes, with the background of such a history that the Northern Song Dynasty was invaded by nomadic people. The names of the two protagonists, Guo Jing and Yang Kang, both come from the shame of Jingkang. The author, Mr. Jin Yong, specially named it in order to let everyone remember this humiliating history. After the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty, Song Huizong's ninth son, Zhao Gou, fled south to Hangzhou and established Lin 'an as its capital, which was known as the Southern Song Dynasty. Lin 'an is now a county-level city in Hangzhou, to the west of Hangzhou. What does Lin 'an mean? It means temporary placement. I hope to open it one day. But unfortunately, how did Song Gaozong find Hangzhou after he made it his capital? The beauty of the mountains and rivers is even more beautiful, so I spend a lot of time on the edge of the West Lake every day, singing and dancing, and completely forget Kaifeng for nine nights. As a result, I stayed in Hangzhou in the Southern Song Dynasty 150 years, making Hangzhou the largest and most prosperous city in the world at that time.
Song Gaozong was a fatuous and incompetent emperor. He listened to treacherous court official Qin Heng's slanderous remarks, awarded 12 gold medals to recall Yue Fei, who had been fighting in the front line with good news, and killed Yue Fei's father and son Yue Yun in Fengboting on trumped-up charges, resulting in eternal injustice. Now there is the Yue Tomb near the West Lake. The treacherous court official and his wife Wang, as well as Zhang Junhe (reading Moqi) who framed Yue Fei, were all cast into four iron statues, with their hands tied behind their backs, kneeling in front of Yue Fei's tomb, which was reviled by all previous dynasties. At that time, there was a poet named Lin Sen who worshipped Yue Fei. He was very angry about Yue Fei's murder. In order to express his dissatisfaction, he wrote a poem on the wall of a hotel near the West Lake: When will the singing and dancing in the West Lake stop? Warm winds intoxicated tourists and made Hangzhou a Bianzhou.
Economy: After talking about the history of Hangzhou, let's talk about the economy of Hangzhou. In the impression of China people, both Hangzhou and Suzhou are located in areas with rich products and developed economy. So who is richer in Hangzhou or Suzhou? I can't tell from the outside. Here is a data for your reference. In 2006, Suzhou's GNP was 482 billion, the fifth in China, and Hangzhou was 344 billion, the eighth in China. So, does it mean that Suzhou people are richer than Hangzhou people? If this is wrong, we should analyze the economic structure of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. We know that there are two industrial parks in Suzhou, and many Fortune 500 companies have not invested, such as Sony, Panasonic, Hitachi, Sharp, Philips, Samsung and LG. The output value of this industry is very large, but the profits are taken away by multinational companies. China people only take a small part of taxes, rent and wages, so Jiangsu is an export-oriented economy, similar to Guangdong. The main body of Zhejiang's economy is the private economy. Companies are their own companies and enterprises are their own enterprises. The money earned is in my pocket, and the money stays in Zhejiang, so we say that Zhejiang is rich. So although Suzhou's gross national product is higher than Hangzhou's, Hangzhou people are richer than Suzhou people. As long as you look at their house, you will know that it is beautifully built, for fear that other people's houses will be more beautiful, taller and luxuriously decorated. What is even more exaggerated is that some people have installed elevators at home. From this, we can also see that Zhejiang people love to show off.
It is said that Zhejiang people can do business, and the most powerful is not Hangzhou people. Where are they from? By the way, Wenzhou people. Wenzhou people are now doing business all over the world. Where there are people in the world, there are people from China, China and Wenzhou. Wenzhou people created the world with three knives. Which three knives? Kitchen knife, scissors, leather knife.
The kitchen knife represents the catering industry. Chinese restaurants opened by Wenzhou people are all over the world. Even in war-torn Iraq, Wenzhou people can be seen busy.
Scissors represent the clothing industry, a famous clothing brand in Wenzhou: there is a good news bird in the suit-a good news bird suit, and I can fly in the sky;
Zhuang Ji-a solemn and auspicious life; Casual clothing brands are Mason-what you wear is what you wear, Mason casual wear; And Aaron Kwok's Metz Bang Wei-Bang Wei.
Leather knife represents the leather shoes industry, Wenzhou famous leather shoes brand: Aokang-wear Aokang, walk the world; Kangnai-owning Kangnai is comfortable and cozy.
Wenzhou people are called Jews in China, and they do business best. Then we have a very bad businessman in Hangzhou. Who is it? Huang Qiaoling. I don't know whether you have been to Hainan. If you ask a Hainan native when traveling in Hainan, no one doesn't know his name. Hainan people are very grateful to Huang Qiaoling, because he is the pioneer of Hainan tourism, and he invested in the development of Tianya Haijiao Scenic Area. Later, he returned to his hometown of Hangzhou. As an old Hangzhou native with deep affection for the West Lake, he goes to visit it every morning. Huang Qiaoling wrote with emotion in "Days of My Own": At this time, I feel heavy when I look at the tourists who come from all over the country to make a name for themselves in the West Lake. I'm thinking: Why do I walk next to the West Lake and only see it, but I can't feel its legend? The broken bridge is still there, but I can't feel the romance when Xu Xian and White Snake first met at the broken bridge. The long bridge is still there, but I can't feel the sad love story that butterfly lovers's classmates carried for three years, and finally become a butterfly became a pair; In Yue Temple, the four characters of "loyalty to the country" stabbed to death by Yue Fei's mother-in-law are still there, but we can't feel how Yue Jiajun led by Yue Fei fought bravely to restore the great rivers and mountains of the Central Plains. . . . . .
Why can't you feel so many beautiful stories when you walk by the West Lake? Isn't traveling just about feeling with your heart? Huang Qiaoling thought about wandering, and finally he decided to build a place where every visitor to Hangzhou can feel the history of Hangzhou and the beautiful legend of the West Lake! So, after several years of planning, he built an ancient city-Song Cheng on the Qiantang River. Song Cheng's slogan is: You give me one day, and I will pay you back a thousand years.
Construction of Song Cheng: When Song Cheng was built, there was no ready-made blueprint for reference. It has been more than 1000 years since the Song Dynasty, and no one knows what Hangzhou was like at that time. How can we make the layout of the ancient city of Southern Song Dynasty original? Huang Qiaoling, the boss of Song Cheng Group, is a well-informed businessman in Zhejiang. At this time, he is also in trouble. On one occasion, he went to Beijing on business and visited the Palace Museum in his spare time. He saw a painting in the museum. His eyes lit up and he patted his thigh. Isn't this a ready-made design? It's really hard to find a place to get it. I didn't expect the ancients to draw it for me. What kind of painting is this, so powerful? This painting was painted by Zhang Zeduan, a famous painter in the Northern Song Dynasty. It has been mentioned in the history books of our middle school. It is the national treasure of China-Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival. So later, the construction of Song Cheng was based on The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival, and the construction cost reached 60 million. Song Cheng is now open to the outside world as a tourist attraction. Visitors to Hangzhou, whether from China or foreign countries, must visit Song Cheng when they arrive in Hangzhou.
Throwing hydrangea: As soon as you enter Song Cheng, people 1000 years ago dress up as ancients, and the streets 1000 years ago come into view. If our male compatriots here get married, we should pay attention. You have a chance. what can I say? Because there is an activity of throwing hydrangea, as long as you are lucky enough, you may grab the hydrangea thrown by Miss Wang. That Miss Wang is very beautiful, a real beauty in the south of the Yangtze River, with slim figure, snow-white skin and big eyes. The way she looks at people, especially handsome men, has surprised me several times. If any man here is lucky enough to receive hydrangea, whether you are married or not, you can marry Miss Wang at night and make a toast before entering the bridal chamber. As the saying goes, there are two great events in life: the wedding night and being the first time. This Miss Wang is a bit of a playboy. Because she throws hydrangeas three times a day, she goes into the bridal chamber with three different men every night. But I didn't get hydrangea after going there so many times. Later, it was said by others, and I don't know why I couldn't get it, because Miss Wang never threw the hydrangea to the person holding the flag and the trumpet-the tour guide. )
Besides, you can also see some other performances, such as Yan Qing's beating, conscription, ancient wine-making and so on.
The Romance of the History of Song Dynasty: Song Cheng, who was just introduced, was only half-told, and half of the more wonderful things were not introduced. Besides the ancient city, there are more wonderful performances in it, which is also the most attractive and core selling point of Song Cheng. The performance lasted for one hour, and the name of the performance was Romance in the Song Dynasty.
The investment of Legend of Song Dynasty in this party reached 50 million RMB, worth 830,000 RMB per minute. The stage equipment inside is excellent, including full-color laser lights unique to domestic cinemas, world-class computer lights for shaking heads, and professional audio equipment imported from Britain. The whole stage can be moved and lifted, just like the stage in CCTV Spring Festival Evening. Coupled with high-tech means such as water curtain, magic light array, smoke production and multimedia projection, the whole party is wonderful and amazing. Its performance is divided into four parts.
The first scene: The Song Palace Banquet Dance shows the elegance of the old capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, and reflects that the emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty preferred to live in Hangzhou instead of making progress, and the scene of singing and dancing in the DPRK was peaceful. "When will the singing and dancing in the West Lake stop?"
Scene 2: Jin Goma Tie Yuefei was a national hero in the Southern Song Dynasty. He led Yue Jiajun through many battles, and the war scene aimed at recovering the Central Plains was reflected here.
Scene 3: Beautiful lake legend This scene shows the beautiful love legend of Hangzhou as the love capital by the West Lake. For example, Liang Zhu's become a butterfly, White Snake and Xu Xian's Broken Bridge Meet, water overflows Jinshan, and Lotus Fairy, etc.
Scene 4: In addition to China, foreign tourists from dozens of countries, such as Japan, South Korea, the United States and Singapore, also account for half of the guests who come here to visit Song Cheng, so they will also perform some exotic programs, such as Arirang in South Korea and American country music. Generally speaking, which country has more guests that day, it will perform the programs of which country. You only need to watch what programs are performing to know which country has more people today.
The price is 160 yuan/person, including two parts: visiting ancient Song Cheng and watching the performance of Song Legend. Visitors to Hangzhou come from dozens of countries, with at least 10 thousand people every day. In Song Cheng, there are three performances every day, each with only more than 2,000 seats, and there is a shortage of more than 4,000 tickets. So this ticket is very tight, and our tour guide often has to grab tickets for the guests. I need to reserve seats for everyone now, or there will be no seats.
When I came to Hangzhou, in fact, everyone stayed for a short time, only a short day, and after visiting the West Lake during the day, I could do nothing but watch TV at the hotel at night. If you want to fully feel the beauty and affection of Hangzhou in just one day, it is unrealistic to understand its profound history and culture. There is such a good opportunity now, I hope you don't miss it.
