Wuxi Yixing ginkgo viewing strategy

Dushi Village, Yixing City 1

Viewing point: Wanshan Temple

Age: 1800 years old.

Disaster-ridden:

At the end of the Qing dynasty, lightning split the ginkgo tree in half, and the eastern part was completely torn off, leaving only the trunk of the western part still growing. During the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, a big fire attacked ginkgo trees. After these two big tossing, the trunk, which was originally about five or six meters in circumference, began to show more than half and gradually became a hole in the trunk.

By the end of 1960s, children in the village were burning wildfires under ginkgo trees. At this time, a small fire turned into a raging fire. After the fire was put out, the original hole became bigger, just like the ginkgo tree "opening its belly". The middle of the trunk is completely cracked, and the torn space can accommodate two or three adults standing in the trunk.

1993 Summer, Dushi Village was hit by a typhoon. The only remaining main pole in the valley was blown off by the strong wind. The height of ginkgo trees is nearly 50 meters. The typhoon dwarfed ginkgo trees by half.
