Jiangxi Travel Notes-Tengwang Pavilion and Wugong Mountain
I set off from Ningbo during National Day, on October 4th. That day happened to be the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Due to work reasons, by the time I could confirm my arrangements after the National Day, I could no longer buy a ticket home, so I could only go in and see the mountains and rivers of the motherland.
The main purpose of choosing to go to Jiangxi is to complete my plan to travel across the country. Now south of the Yangtze River, only Jiangxi has not been visited, so after this trip, we have completed the part of the country south of the Yangtze River.
When going to Jiangxi, you must first go to Tengwang Pavilion, because Wang Bo, the author of "Preface to Tengwang Pavilion", was from Longmen, Jiangzhou (now Hejin, Shanxi), and Hejin is my hometown.
As a Hejin native, I only know that there are two famous people in Hejin, one is Wang Bo and the other is Xue Rengui, one in literature and one in martial arts. Xue Rengui's cold kiln is in Hejin, but I heard that it was in such a state of decline that it was not worth visiting. I have never been there either. There seems to be no monument to Wang Bo in Hejin, only the Tengwang Pavilion in Nanchang, so I must go here to see the Tengwang Pavilion this time.
Moreover, Tengwang Pavilion is one of the three famous towers in Jiangnan, the other two are the Yellow Crane Tower in Wuhan, Hubei, and the Yueyang Tower in Yueyang, Hunan.
The three famous buildings in the south of the Yangtze River are all built on the waterside, and they all have particularly famous poems that are familiar to everyone.
On the evening of October 4, I arrived in Nanchang, Jiangxi.
The original plan was to take the airport bus directly to Qiushui Square and enjoy the famous musical fountain.
It was getting late, maybe because I got on the wrong bus, the bus did not follow the planned route. Fortunately, the route is not very far from where I stay. So I stayed there first and then set off to Qiushui Square.
Because it happened to be the Mid-Autumn Festival, there were so many people in Qiushui Square that I hardly took any good photos, and the fountain in Qiushui Square was not as impressive as I imagined. However, on the way to Qiushui Square, I passed by the Antique Street. The Antique Street at night is quite beautiful.
When I came back from Qiushui Square, it was already quite late. I originally wanted to take a taxi back. I found that Didi couldn't get me a taxi and the taxi driver was unwilling to take me there (maybe because I lived close to him and he couldn't make much money), so I took the subway back. It turned out that there were a lot of people on the subway, which made me very sad. I was curious, because it seemed to be almost nine o'clock in the evening, but there were still so many people on the subway.
To the east of the Ganjiang River is the old city, and to the west of the Ganjiang River is the new city. I live in the old city. Compared with the new city, the old city is obviously far behind. Walking on the narrow streets of the old town at night, I can't help but feel a little worried.
On the morning of October 5th, the trip to Tengwang Pavilion officially started.
Regarding the origin of "Preface to Prince Teng's Pavilion", there is a vivid record in "Tang Yan" written by Wang Dingbao in the late Tang Dynasty.
"The time is September, and the preface belongs to the third autumn." When Wang Bo wrote "The Preface to the Pavilion of Prince Teng", it was a little later than today.
One person and one bag, we set off from the hotel to Tengwang Pavilion.
The Tengwang Pavilion Scenic Area is quite user-friendly. After purchasing the scenic spot tickets online, you don’t need to pick up the tickets. You can go in directly by swiping your ID card.
While His Excellency Prince Teng was taking photos, I met a tourist. Because we were traveling alone and because we wanted to take photos of each other, we made an appointment to travel together. After chatting, I found out that he was also from Shanxi. It was such a fate that I could meet a Shanxi person in Jiangxi.
As soon as you enter the Tengwang Pavilion, you can see a huge white marble relief "The wind is coming and sending the Tengwang Pavilion". This is based on the famous article "Ma Dang Divine Wind" in "Awakening the World" written by Feng Menglong of the Ming Dynasty. It was created based on the story "Send to King Teng's Pavilion". It tells a mythical story: Wang Bo met an immortal by chance on Madang Mountain and rushed to the Pavilion of Prince Teng with the help of a breeze.
Leaning on the railing, you can see the Ganjiang River passing through the city, and the new city on the left is lined with high-rise buildings.
Since its creation, Tengwang Pavilion has been destroyed in troubled times and prospered in prosperous times. It has been destroyed and rebuilt 28 times, which can be called a miracle in the history of ancient architecture. Among them, the "holographic projection" in the west hall on the fourth floor of Tengwang Pavilion tells the story of the destruction and reconstruction process of Tengwang Pavilion in the past dynasties.
The Tengwang Pavilion we see now was built for the 29th time. Of course, the current Tengwang Pavilion is much more spectacular than the one when Wang Bo wrote the "Preface to Tengwang Pavilion".
After coming out of Tengwang Pavilion, I separated from that friend.
Because this friend is studying architecture, he said that the porcelain tiles on the outside of the building in Wanda Mall in Nanchang are very high-tech. Following his suggestion, I went to Nanchang Wanda Mall to take a look. But because my artistic level is too low, I don’t feel that this makes any difference.
Due to time constraints, I only had a meal inside Wanda Mall, looked at the buildings outside, and then took a bus to Pingxiang.
Before setting off from Ningbo, in addition to the must-visit Tengwang Pavilion, you also need to plan a travel destination, because the Tengwang Pavilion can be visited in one day at most and does not take a long time.
The night before departure, I was still hesitating whether to go to Lushan Mountain or somewhere else. Considering time, National Day crowd, money and other reasons, we finally changed our route to Wugong Mountain in Pingxiang, Jiangxi.
Wugong Mountain is located on the border of Hunan and Jiangxi, in the Luoxiao Mountains. Wugong Mountain is well-known in the outdoor community, but ordinary people may not know much about it.
I know Wugong Mountain mainly for its alpine meadow and tent cultural festival.
The high-speed rail runs from Nanchang West Station to Pingxiang North Station. You need to take a bus or take a taxi to Pingxiang City.
On the morning of the next day (October 6), we officially set off from Chengnan Bus Station to climb Wugong Mountain. It takes more than an hour to drive from Chengnan Bus Station to Wugong Mountain Visitor Center.
After getting off the bus, I met three friends who were locals and made an appointment to go to Wugong Mountain.
Because I was worried about too many tourists in Wugong Mountain, I purchased tickets online the night before departure. But when I arrived at the visitor center, I discovered that the efficiency of the automatic ticket machines was far inferior to the manual channels.
The first automatic ticket machine I queued at could not issue a ticket. . . . So I queued up again at the second automatic ticket machine. When it was the turn of the tourist in front of me, he chose to use his ID card to get the ticket. As a result, he tried many times and couldn't get the ticket. So he gave up and went to the manual service desk to get the ticket.
After it was my turn, I swiped my ID card many times but it didn’t work. I had no choice but to enter the ticket collection code to collect the tickets. After trying twice, I finally took out the ticket. At this time, several friends I met on the bus had already bought tickets and were waiting for me at the manual ticket collection place.
The four of us lined up and prepared to go up the mountain. You need to take a transfer bus from the tourist service center to reach the foot of the mountain. It is said that you could drive directly to the foot of the mountain in the past, but now it is not allowed and you must take a transfer bus. The transfer bus fare is not expensive, only 10 yuan for a round trip.
Because I saw a ticket check-in in front of me, my friend who was traveling with me asked if I could buy tickets at the ticket check-in. After being told that I could, I queued up with confidence, but they went in first, and I Because there is no transfer ticket, I can only go to the tourist service center to buy a transfer ticket again.
FUCK! I just don’t understand. It’s almost mandatory to buy transfer tickets. Why don’t you provide an explanation when buying tickets online? How many people can be avoided in this way? Moreover, when queuing up to go to the transfer bus, you should make a reminder sign and write it clearly. If you want to use the transfer bus, you must have a transfer ticket, so you don’t have to queue in vain!
The three of them, go in first. I went back to the tourist service center to buy a transfer ticket. This time I directly chose the manual service to buy it. I turned around and looked at the automatic ticket machine where there were basically not many people buying it. . . .
I successfully bought the transfer ticket, queued up to pass the ticket gate again, and queued up to get on the train.
At the foot of the mountain, we finally met them.
Before climbing the mountain, a friend on the Internet told me that it would take about 3 hours to climb the mountain. I thought, three hours is not much, I can definitely climb it. It turned out that it was too simple and too young. We started climbing the mountain at about 11 a.m., and it took about three hours for me to reach the halfway point (reaching the Golden Summit Cableway). . . . .
The scenery of Wugong Mountain is different throughout the year, and the scenery of climbing at different times of the day is also different, so some people say that Wugong Mountain does not have the same scenery.
When we started climbing, the bottom of Wugong Mountain was filled with heavy fog and visibility was very low. Along the way, you could basically see nothing except the trees about ten meters around. Basically, no photos were taken, and the occasional photos were hazy. Only one photo of the Tyndall effect is passable.
In the years since graduation, my body has been basically wasted, and my physical fitness is very poor.
Because I overestimated my climbing ability and the difficulty of Wugong Mountain.
When we climbed halfway up the mountain, I felt so tired that I almost fell down. I was going to take the cable car up. The three of them originally wanted to go down that day, but they also agreed to take the cable car up, so we went Over there at the Golden Summit Cable Car.
When we walked to the Zhongan Ropeway and stood there, the sky was clear and the bottom of Wugong Mountain was completely invisible.
But when we arrived at the Golden Summit Cable Car, we were told by the staff that we would have to wait for two hours to take the cable car. . . . . . It was already two o'clock in the afternoon. Whether we took the cable car up or walked back to the mountain climbing road, we would definitely not be able to go back that day. Although it is a bit regretful, we have no choice but to go back.
Goodbye to the alpine meadows and the tent festival in my heart.
We also walked for a long time on the way down from the mountain. However, the way down was much easier than the way up the mountain, but we also walked for a long time.
I originally planned to go to Nielong Cave the next day, but after thinking about it, it was actually not necessary. Stalactites can be found everywhere. The ones in Pingxiang are not special compared to other places, and I don’t have any special interest in stalactites. So, I bought a ticket back to Nanchang.
I didn’t buy a high-speed rail ticket, so I bought a train ticket. On the train, everyone in the room took the train because they didn't buy high-speed rail tickets. It seems that high-speed rail is really deeply rooted in people's hearts.
The trip is completed.
