Guanqian Street in Suzhou Guanqian Street is a bustling downtown area in Suzhou, and few people who have been to Suzhou know about it. In Jiangnan, it is not uncommon to name a street after the front or back of a landmark building. However, what Suzhou people like is probably second to none. There are too many examples in front of Wei Daoguan, Xuan Miaoguan, Zhen Fu Si Qian, Shen Ya and Fan Zhuang. One of the most famous is the mysterious front, commonly known as Guanqian Street, or Guanqian Street for short. Its reputation is the same as that of Confucius Temple in Nanjing, Chenghuang Temple in Shanghai and Tianqiao in Beijing. It is a public entertainment place integrating business, entertainment, food and culture.

Just like Confucius Temple has Confucius Temple and Chenghuang Temple has Yu Garden, Guanqian Street is famous for its mysterious scenery. This is a magnificent Taoist building complex with a history of 1,311 years. The main hall is Sanqing Hall, with nine bays and a double eaves resting on the top of the mountain, as well as more than a dozen other halls. The long street in front of the main mountain in the south is Guanqian Street. There are many shops, vendors and various scenes, which is an old landscape with lofty views and bloated views. From the vinegar workshop bridge in the east to the tea garden in the west, together with the nearby small parks, there are hundreds of shops and stalls in the night market. Even in front of the Buddha statue of primitive people, it is full of miscellaneous commodity breath and noisy hawking, and the air is filthy. The transformation of the porch brought the transformation of Guanqian Street.

A stone archway stands at the entrance of the main entrance, surrounded by a piece of Little Square. The magnificent Sanqing Hall stands out among the surrounding high-rise buildings, restoring the sanctity and solemnity of the bishop's jurisdiction. The thick green sprinkled by the towering trees on the terrace and guardrail filters and calms the surrounding noisy atmosphere. The square in front of the mountain gate and the east-west long street are continuous, open and flat, sweeping away the old pattern of narrow roads in the past, and no longer passing vehicles, becoming pedestrian streets. Antique shops on both sides combine classical style with modern commercial civilization, and the positive view is completely new. Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street in Shanghai lacks a strong cultural atmosphere, and the road of Chenghuang Temple is too complicated, which also weakens the dominant position of culture.

Nanjing Confucius Temple cannot have a far-reaching atmosphere because of the cramped Confucius Temple and the narrow square. It's just that "Before View" took off its dusty coat, set off its main mysterious view on the secular atmosphere of commercial culture, and suppressed the market atmosphere filled with it with its profound history, classical spirit and humanistic atmosphere. Without or reducing the cultural subject of the mysterious view, it is like re-establishing a department store market, rather than reproducing the glory of the mysterious view. The confusion and complexity of the business atmosphere cover up or drown out the cultural landscape, which is just vulgarity rather than culture. There are only human and natural landscapes, and there is no corresponding commercial and cultural color. It's just an isolated scenic spot, not a crowded downtown.

The new forward-looking is a kind of cultural enlightenment. Without the glory of the cultural subject, even with the best commercial prosperity, it is still not Suzhou. This is the front view, and this is the charm of Suzhou. Suzhou Humble Administrator's Garden, a famous garden in the south of the Yangtze River in ancient China, is one of the four famous gardens in China and a classic in Suzhou gardens. Humble Administrator's Garden is located in the northeast street of the northeast gate of Suzhou ancient city. The park covers an area of about 4.1 hectares (excluding management and garden land of about 1.67 hectares). In the fourth year of Ming Dynasty (AD 1519), it was founded by the Imperial King. In the next 411 years, the vicissitudes of life changed dramatically, and the original comprehensive garden evolved into three independent gardens with their own patterns.

In the early Wang's Humble Administrator's Garden, the pictures, notes and chants of the Humble Administrator's Garden were handed down from generation to generation, which completely outlined the landscape and style of the Humble Administrator's Garden. At that time, the area of the park was about 13.4 hectares. There are many gaps in the garden, with stagnant water in the middle, and the swamp has been dug into a pool. There are 31 scenic spots such as Fanhuawu, Yiyuxuan, Furong Zhang, Xuan, Threshold, Pool, Taiwan, Dock and Stream. The whole garden is wild bamboo.

There are Guangguan Pavilion, Jia 'ergang, Xiangtai, Zitengwu, Apricot Blossom Room and Bamboo Fragrant Gallery in the garden. It can be divided into four scenic spots. This is Qingchu Lake in Hanzhong. The main building Blue School is in the north of the lake, surrounded by osmanthus trees, plum blossoms and bamboo curtains. To the south of the pool and to the left of the pool, there is Hefeng, and there is a hole under the peak, which is called Xiaotaoyuan. Stepping into a cave is like fishing for a man to enter a peach garden, but not for an adult. To the west of Lanxuetang, there are rugged phoenix trees, lush forests and bamboo forests, surrounded by streams, which means running water. To the north are Ziluo Mountain and Yangdang Pool. To the east is the lotus pond, covering an area of four or five acres, with Linxianglou in it. All kinds of fields are in front of us. In the early years of Qianlong, the east garden of Humble Administrator's Garden was divided into two parts: the middle garden and the west garden.

The existing layout was formed in the third year of Guangxu (AD 1877). Later, it was repaired by Zhang and renamed as Buyuan. Therefore, there are Taying Pavilion, Liuting Pavilion, Fucui Pavilion, Li Dingting Pavilion, Who sits, Yiling Pavilion and so on. The newly-built 36 Yuanyang Pavilion and 18 Datura Flower Pavilion are beautifully decorated and luxurious. The central part is the best part of Humble Administrator's Garden. Although there are great changes and differences from the early Humble Administrator's Garden, the garden is dominated by water, with mountains piled in the pool and halls, pavilions and pavilions arranged around the pool, which basically continues the pattern of the Ming Dynasty. From the Map of Humble Administrator's Garden in Xianfeng, Tongzhi and Guangxu years, it can be seen that the courtyards such as Haitang Chunwu, Tingyuxuan, Lingxi Hall, Pipayuan, Xiaofeihong, Xiaocanglang, Tingsongfengchu, Xiangzhou and Yulantang in the south of the mountains and rivers are no different from the existing ones.

Therefore, the central landscape of Humble Administrator's Garden should be formed during the period from Xianfeng to Guangxu in the late Qing Dynasty. There are some differences in the layout of the Humble Administrator's Garden in different historical stages, especially the early Humble Administrator's Garden is not exactly the same as the present situation. It is this difference that has gradually formed the unique characteristics of Humble Administrator's Garden, which mainly includes:

(1) Adapting to local conditions and being good at water. According to "Wang's Humble Administrator's Garden" and "Returning to the Pastoral Residence", most of the gardens are open spaces, where stagnant water stands, slightly dredging, and surrounded by trees. The land can be collected from the pool, and the soil can be collected from the pool. Although the plot is high, the mountains are mountains. In Ikenoe, there are houses among the mountains.

It fully shows that the Humble Administrator's Garden makes use of the abundant water in the garden to dredge it into a pool; If you look at the lake, you will form an endless personality and characteristics. There are nearly six acres of water in the middle of the Humble Administrator's Garden, accounting for about one-third of the garden area. Pavilions and pavilions are surrounded by water, creating a cheerful atmosphere in a large area of water garden space, basically maintaining the characteristics of vast pools and lush trees in the Ming Dynasty.

(2) elegant, natural and wild. The early Humble Administrator's Garden had lush trees, chaotic water and natural scenery. The buildings in the park are very sparse, with only one hall and six pavilions on the first floor. The number of buildings is very small, which is far lower than the building density in today's gardens. Bamboo fences, thatched cottages and thatched cottages are integrated with the natural landscape, which is simple and elegant and has a unique natural scenery. The existing landscape in the middle of Humble Administrator's Garden accounts for about three-fifths of the garden area. There are two islands in the pool, and the Chi Pan at the top of the mountain is dotted with only a few pavilions and small buildings. The scenic spot looks elegant, elegant and natural. Although this layout has not yet formed in the Ming Dynasty, it already has the style of the Humble Administrator's Garden in the Ming Dynasty.

(3) The courtyard is strewn at random and tortuous. Garden architecture of government garden. In the early stage, it was mostly single, and great changes have taken place in the late Qing Dynasty. First of all, the number of garden buildings such as temples, pavilions, corridors and boats has increased significantly. The building density in the middle reaches 16

Only 1.2 hectares of garden remained in the Humble Administrator's Garden during Guangxu period. Like other gardens in Suzhou, it occupies a small area, so the first problem to be solved in gardening activities is to create infinite scenery of natural landscape in a small space. This garden-in-garden, multi-space courtyard combination and the division and infiltration of space contrast each other; The combination of implicit and explicit space, the twists and turns of virtual and real space, implicit and implicit; The purpose of space is to break through the limitation of space, get the effect of seeing the big from the small, and thus get rich landscapes. This treatment is of universal significance in Suzhou gardens, and it is also a common feature of Suzhou gardens.

(4) Landscape, flowers and trees win. Zheng Xiang is famous for The Overwhelming Success of Trees. For hundreds of years, it has come down in one continuous line. Wang Humble Administrator's Garden has eleven scenes in the third grade, and two-thirds of the landscapes are taken from plant themes, such as peach blossom slices, which are planted on the shore and look like red clouds when bloom is here. There are thousands of beautiful bamboos in Zhuxi and Jiaxi, and the scenery is very quiet; There are hundreds of Yao books in the garden, and bloom is gorgeous. Returning to the pastoral home, laurel trees are also staggered and weeping willows touch the ground. Trees are dense and rocks are covered with moss. Every spring, camellia is like fire and magnolia is like snow. Apricot blossoms are in full bloom, covering the sunset and covering the ravine. Xia he The hibiscus in autumn is like overlapping brocade curtains. In winter, Laomeiwan, Ao Shuang. There are Fan Hongxuan, Zhimeiting, Zhuxiang Gallery, You Zhu, Zitengwu and Huaduo Zhangjian.

Today, Humble Administrator's Garden still maintains the tradition of winning by plant landscape, with lotus, camellia and rhododendron as three famous characteristic flowers. There are only 23 landscapes in central China, of which 81% are dominated by plants. For example, the lotus in Yuanxiangtang and the pavilion on all sides of Hefeng (fragrant far away, natural clear, and lotus wind coming from all sides); Leaning on bamboo in Yuxuan and Linglong Pavilion ("The Length of Bamboo is 11,111 Rod" and "The Moonlight Wearing Bamboo Green and Linglong"); Orange waiting for frost pavilion ("Dongting will be filled with frost"); Listen to the bamboo, lotus and banana in the rain garden (listen to the rain and the autumn bamboo, the banana leaves are semi-yellow and the lotus leaves are green, and the two autumn rains are the same); Magnolia in the hall (this life should be as clean as magnolia); Plums in the pavilion with fragrant snow clouds (I know it's not snow in the distance, because there is fragrance floating); Listen to the pines in the pine wind (the wind blows cold pines since ancient times), as well as the begonia in the spring dock of begonia, the willows in the winding path of Liu Yin, the handrails in Piba Garden and Jiashi Pavilion, the pines, bamboos and cypresses in Dezhen Pavilion, etc. Address: No.178, Northeast Street, Suzhou Ancient City Tickets: 71 yuan in peak season, 51 yuan in off season.

Lion Grove is one of the four famous gardens in Suzhou with a history of more than 651 years. In the second year of Yuan Dynasty (AD 1342), Tian Ru, a disciple of Zen master Wei Ze and a famous monk, invested in buying land to build a house for his teacher. There are all kinds of bamboo forests in the garden, and there are many strange stones under the trees that look like lions. Because of Wei Ze, the Zen master of Tianxiang, he gained his enlightenment in Zhongying Township, Lion Mountain, Tianmu Mountain, Zhejiang Province. In order to commemorate the relationship between the Buddha and his disciples, the lion forest and lion forest were named after the meaning of Leo in Buddhist scriptures.

Lion Forest has the cultural landscape of Suzhou classical gardens, such as pavilions, terraces, buildings, pavilions, halls, pavilions and corridors, and is famous for its picturesque lakes and mountains and deep caves. It is known as the rockery kingdom. Since the Yuan Dynasty, the lion forest rockery has been spread to this day, which is characterized by undulating peaks, magnificent momentum, strange rocks and exquisite shapes. The rockery group has nine routes and 21 openings. Transverse twists and turns, vertical cyclic ups and downs. Tourists go through the hole and hover left and right, sometimes climbing to the top, sometimes sinking to the bottom, looking up at the mountains and overlooking the hillside, which brings a sense of mystery to tourists.

In the next year (1342), Zen master Wei bought his land from Su disciple and married his house as a paradise. At that time, bamboo and stone occupied most of the land, but the house had only 21 small compartments, which was relatively simple. In this dimension, it is easy to collect strange stones, including Guanghui Peak, Tuyue Peak, Li Yufeng and Angxiao Peak. The tallest one is like a lion. Because Wei Zeshi Zhongfeng preached Taoism in the Lion Rock in Tianmu Mountain, it was also called the Lion Roar according to the Buddhist scriptures, and its location was called Leo and Lion Forest. There are Nellie Tang Xue, Zhibaixuan, Wenmeige and Yujianchi. There is a saying in Wei Shu: Humanity I live in the city, but I am in the mountains. After Wei Yuan's death, his disciples dispersed, and the temple garden became increasingly deserted and scattered.

At the end of Yuan Dynasty, Zhang Shicheng's husband Pan lived in this area, and they both lived in a mansion nearby. In the sixth year of Wu Ming (1373), Ni Zan painted a lion forest with bamboo groves. The thatched cottage was spacious, with towering rocks and no caves. The following year, Xu Ben produced Wu Men Biao Yin. During Jin Jia's reign, the monks in the temple dispersed, and Qifeng Hall was destroyed by wild smoke and weeds. After that, it was occupied by the Hao family as a market. During the Wanli period, Jiang Yingke, a magistrate of a county, visited his hometown and rebuilt the hall garden. In the early Qing dynasty, it was abandoned as a residential building. In the fifth year of Shunzhi (1648), it was rebuilt, which was better than the old view. In the 42nd year of Kangxi (1713), Michelle Ye visited the temple gardens.

Gu's Notes on Suzhou Historical Records says: During the reign of Kangxi, the father of Xietang bought it as a garden. (Huang Fu is Huang Xingzu, the magistrate of Hengzhou. There are five folded pine trees in the park, also known as Wusong Garden. The separation of the temple began here. "Twelve Scenes of the Lion Forest" says that in the twenty-seventh year of Qianlong's southern tour, he visited Wu and built a wall with creeping weeds. Emperor Tommy Tam visited the house several times, took out Nitu to appreciate it, and wrote a poem saying: There are peaks in the painting and bends in the dust. After returning to Beijing, he imitated the structure of Yuanmingyuan and Summer Resort according to Ni Tu's calligraphy, and named them Sixteen Scenes of Lion Grove respectively. According to the record of Qing Jia Lu in the thirty-sixth year of Qianlong, the front hall was separated from the back garden by a wall. The garden area is about equal to the area of the mountain pool in the middle of today's garden, and the west of the pool is close to the boundary wall. By the mid-Qianlong period, Ren Yuan (that is, Runsheng) had already won the praise of the scribes for his "Wandering Tales" and "The Grand Festival of Southern Tour". Behind the hall is a small square hall. On the flower stand of the North Courtyard, there is a huge lake peak, which seems to be composed of nine lions with different postures.

The patterns of leaking windows on the wall of the North Courtyard are Qin, Qi and calligraphy. In the pavilion on the north bank of the pool, a plaque with the theme of true interest for 31 years hangs high, which is the same place to enjoy lotus flowers as the Lotus Hall. The rocks piled up in the rockery near the Yinxiang Shuying Building in the north of Shifang are also called Shangxuan. There are several plum blossoms in front of the Mei Pavilion in Chixi. Windows, floors, tables and stools are all plum blossom-shaped. Man-made waterfalls are made of stones piled up beside the eaves of the pavilion, and the waterfall pavilion is next to it. The waterfall has three layers. There is a bamboo pavilion in the north of the pavilion, and there is a small red cliff in Huangshi rockery, which looks like a natural stone cave. Yu Yan Yu Tang Courtyard, Fan Ting and Ancient Wusong Garden are all original. Tickets: 31 yuan in peak season (April 16-October 31); The off-season (11.31-4.15) is in 21 yuan.
