Song Cheng in the south of the Yangtze River
Walking in the imaginary world, through the forest of grilles, listening to the voice of Berlin and feeling the confession of a protagonist. I met Song Cheng in the south of the Yangtze River in the crisscross of time and space. Give me a day to return your Millennium Song Cheng.
The breeze still has the afterheat of late summer. In this gentle early autumn, I came to Song Cheng in the south of the Yangtze River in Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province, and experienced the unique cultural scenery, crossing the Millennium Song Cheng.
"A city of Ganzhou, the whole history of the Song Dynasty." Ganzhou was one of the 36 largest cities in Song Dynasty. Today, the ancient city area is a collection of ancient city walls, ancient grottoes, ancient kiln sites, ancient docks, Old Pontoon and other Song Dynasty places of interest. Now Ganzhou, a national 4A-level tourist attraction, is known as "Song Cheng in the south of the Yangtze River" and "Song Cheng Museum". Song Cheng is home to the ancient city wall of the Song Dynasty, Yongjinmen, Yugu Platform, Old Pontoon, Bajingtai, Jiang Jingguo's former residence, Zaoer Lane and other scenic spots.
From Jianguo Road, you can see a Song Dynasty gatehouse standing in the middle of the square. Under the city gate, there are buildings above the city gate. In the distance, there are black windows and ink bars, and blue tiles are stacked, which looks like a lost vicissitudes of life. Looking closer, cornices, lintels and carved windows tell the infinite prosperity of the past. Walking into Song Cheng through the gatehouse, I was stunned by the scene in front of me in an instant. I saw red lights hanging high, crowds surging in the streets, and a bustling scene came into view. I suddenly entered the real Song Dynasty through time and space. Walking in the streets of "Song Dynasty", the commercial streets on both sides are dazzling, with small streets extending in all directions and shops closely connected, which restored the scene of Song Dynasty. Walking in Song Cheng in the south of the Yangtze River, it seems that you have a feeling of crossing the Millennium. You have strayed into Ganzhou in the Song Dynasty, and the streets are full of bustling people. Walking in Song Cheng in the south of the Yangtze River, because it is not an ancient city moved down from the painting "The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival", but the restoration of a real ancient city, the feeling of this Song Cheng is real, and every place of it is full of traditional ancient charm and a strong classical atmosphere. Entering Song Cheng is like dreaming for a thousand years, and people are immersed in the charm of DaSong culture.
"How many pedestrians shed tears when Yugu Platform falls into the Qingjiang River" in the poem Bodhisattva Man by Xin Qiji, a famous poet in the Southern Song Dynasty, brought Yugu Platform from the Song Dynasty to today. This Yugu Platform is on the Helan Mountain near Song Cheng in the south of Ganzhou today. Yugu Platform is famous for the word Xin Qiji. At this time, it was early autumn morning, and I crossed the ancient street in Song Cheng and came to the foot of Helan Mountain alone. Stepping on the steps and looking up at the balcony among the lush trees on the mountain is Yugu Platform. In the morning, the sun slowly sets on the blue bricks and tiles in Yugu Platform, and through the ancient breath, it seems to be telling the forgotten past. Today, Yugu Platform is as silent as ever, as if it will remain unchanged for thousands of years. And I stood alone on the Yugu Platform, quietly as if I were in harmony with Yugu Platform, overlooking Song Cheng in the south of the Yangtze River, and I didn't wake up to reality until Dong Yanru, a woman from Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province, who met before Yugu Platform and came to travel alone, called.
The ancient city wall under Yugu Platform is said to be one of the best preserved and longest ancient city walls in the Song Dynasty in China at present, with a total length of more than 3, meters. Standing on the tall and majestic ancient city wall built near the Gongjiang River, you can see the vast face of the Gongjiang River, and the rolling river flows endlessly. The walls are thick and mottled, and the walls are covered with moss and grass, connecting Yongjinmen, Jianchun and Bajingtai. Yanru and I walked through the tall and straight walls, just like we walked through the history yesterday and came to today. Look up, blue sky and white clouds; Look down, inside and outside the city wall; Looking back, the smile on the woman's face, through the powder, I seem to understand the vicissitudes of the ancient city wall.
The Gongjiang River under the city wall and the Old Pontoon outside the Yongjin Gate are 4 meters long. They are made up of 1 boats, each of which is a group of three. The whole pontoon is divided into 33 groups, which are connected by cables and then fixed on the river surface with steel cables and iron anchors, which constitutes the unique cultural landscape of Ganzhou, a famous historical and cultural city. Stepping on the pontoon bridge, the ancient wooden board was accompanied by a heavy creaking sound, as if telling the story of the ancient Jinge iron horse. Nowadays, a fishing market has been opened on the pontoon bridge, and fishermen sell all kinds of aquatic products every evening. Tourists and local people come and go for a walk, and it has also become a good place for citizens to take a walk and enjoy the cool after a meal.
Near noon, we look for delicious food in Zaoer Lane. Walking all the way from the cobblestone lane and stepping on the slate inlaid with the pattern of "Ming Qian", it seems to cross a just visiting, from the sparkling Gongjiang River on the edge of the city wall, to Zaoer Lane, with diverse architectural styles, large-scale Huizhou architecture and antique narrow alleys. The memorial archway facing the street is simple and solemn, the cobblestone pavement is smooth, the wind and volcano walls are patchwork, the gray plastic gatehouse is antique, and the deep house courtyard has extraordinary momentum, which makes the memory of Song Cheng in the south of the Yangtze River even stronger. Looking at the ancient appearance of the roadway, they bring out the best in each other, which makes people suddenly travel back to the ancient past ...
It has been more than a thousand years from modern times to Song Dynasty. Walking into Song Cheng is like walking into a period of history of the Song Dynasty, spreading the depth of history in the time and space of tourists, and displaying an ancient Song style in front of me. Out of Song Cheng, the epitome of Song Cheng in the south of the Yangtze River is still there, full of eyes and memories of the Song Dynasty's debauchery and luxury, but the air exudes a return and ending atmosphere, and the reversed time and space returns to reality. The once prosperous prosperity seems to be calm again.
