Liu's "Ge Yuan Ji" records: "The billiard hall in the park is quiet, beautiful and graceful, with thousands of bamboo poles, so it is called the park." During the Tongzhi period, Ge Yuan was sold to Li Wenan, an Dantu salt merchant in Zhenjiang. Later, the Li family was heavily in official debts, and the warlord Xu Baoshan forced the Li family to pay off their debts with a garden. During Xianfeng period of Qing Dynasty, Geyuan was burned by soldiers. Although there is not much damage, it gradually enters a state of depression. After the construction, it was repaired many times and the scenery was restored. 19 13, Xu Baoshan was killed by the revolutionary party. 1926, the Li family gave up a garden, and the latter garden changed hands several times.

Behind the garden gate is spring scenery, summer scenery in the northwest, autumn scenery in the northeast and winter scenery in the east. The main attraction of Geyuan Building is Baoshan Building, which is a seven-story building. In summer and autumn, it spans between two mountains, and the two mountains are bounded by the building from east to west. There are many mountain roads leading directly to the upstairs, and Baoshan Building connects the two mountains in space. The corridor in front of the building is surrounded by two mountains on the chest, which is the origin of the name Baoshan Building. You can enjoy the summer and autumn scenery on the Baoshan Building promenade, so it is nicknamed "just visiting" by modern people. On the south wall of the corridor downstairs, there are bamboo stone carvings inscribed by Liu Fenghao in the Qing Dynasty. Qingyige Qingyige is a small hexagonal pavilion, which is tall and dignified and can capture the scenery of the whole park. Around Qingyi Pavilion, there are many Taihu stones, and the outer side of Taihu stone is surrounded by a curved green water, so Qingyi Pavilion highlights its beauty under the heavy vault. Qin sentence title Yangzhou Geyuan Qingyi Pavilion: The weather is bamboo; Mountains, rivers and lakes. Opposite Geyuan and south of Dongguan Street, the serial building is the former site of Xiaolinglong Mountain Hall of Ma Riwan and Ma Rilu brothers, another big salt merchant in Yangzhou. The building series of Xiaoling Mountain Hall is known as "the north and south of the great river". Later, the salt transportation in Yangzhou declined, and the Majia family became increasingly depressed. Xiao Linglong Mountain Pavilion changed hands several times and was finally bought by Huang Zhijun. As a farewell hospital, it was destroyed by fire during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. I live in Qiu Ge, which is located on the south peak of Qiushan Mountain, and I live in Qiu Ge. It is east-west, built by a wall and has windows on three sides. It is the largest building on the rockery in the whole park, and there are stone steps in the easternmost part of the courtyard to climb the south peak of Akiyama. Zheng Xie (Zheng Banqiao) wrote a couplet in front of the pavilion, "Summer rain sounds like autumn, and plum blossoms smell like spring". The Four Seasons Garden of Yiyuxuan Garden has "Yiyuxuan" in the middle, three towers in the east and virtual windows on all sides, which can give you a panoramic view of the garden. The roof of the porch is a common tile in Yangzhou, with slightly upturned corners. There are several pieces of stained glass imported from France when the garden was built on the east and west walls. Yiyuxuan is the place where the owner receives guests. There are couplets in front of the entrance: tune the piano in the morning and drum at dusk, and rain in the old days. There are several winding cloisters and pavilions in the sentence gallery, where the host looks for poems. There is a couplet that says "the moon reflects a thousand words, and the frost is high and the plum blossoms are pregnant." The sentence gallery is connected with the West Road Building, leading to Xiashan in the northwest, Yiyuxuan, the main building of "Four Seasons Rockery" in the north, and Chunshan and Dongshan in the east. The characteristic rockery, spring mountain and spring scenery are near the south entrance of Guihuatang. The bamboo on both sides outside the gate of Geziyuan is higher than the wall, and stalagmites are planted among the bamboo bushes. In the state of "inch stone gives birth to love", it means "like mushrooms after rain". Bamboo and stone broke the theme of "spring mountain" and conveyed the concept of "cherishing spring" in traditional culture. Entering the garden gate, it is still the spring mountain, or the picture of bamboo and stone. The zodiac is dotted with hieroglyphics, and peony and peony are planted in the flower beds. Outside the door is the scene of early spring, and inside the door is the scene of late spring. In summer mountain and summer scenery, the stacked stones are mainly blue-gray Taihu stones, like clouds and fog. Gardeners make use of the uneven, thin, transparent, leaky and wrinkled characteristics of Taihu stone, and pile up many stones without disorder, which are smooth and smooth from a distance, smart as clouds and strange peaks. Myopia is exquisite, like a mountain like a hole. You can walk through caves, climb mountains and turn to the top of mountains. Build a pavilion on the top of the mountain, next to the old pine tree. The ramp on the mountain connects Longlou and Huangshi Mountain in the east. Qiushan autumn scenery is a Yellowstone rockery, which is made of rough Yellowstone in the northeast corner of the garden. There is a square pavilion on the top of the mountain, and the cypress in the gap stretches obliquely, leaning against the rugged rocks. There are three ramps on the mountain, one of which will return to its original place after a 20% discount, and the other will turn twice to return to the cliff. Only the middle road can go deep into the secluded room between the peaks or go down to the mountainside. Climbing left and right in the cave, there are different realms, such as stone chambers, stone benches, stone tables, the first sight of the cave on the top of the mountain, flying beams of stone bridges, deep valleys and streams, etc., with plane circuitous, three-dimensional roundabout, mountains and pavilions. The pavilion at the top of Qiushan Mountain constitutes the highest scenic spot in the whole park. The small courtyard in the southeast has a winter mountain and a winter rockery. The white and round Xuan Shi (snow stone) is stacked against the wall, and the rockery in Xuan Shi is timely, shining when the light is shining, and the backlight is dazzling and white. There are four rows of round holes in the south wall, and the effect of the north wind whistling caused by the airflow change in the narrow lanes and high walls has become the atmosphere of winter snowstorm. When building a mountain with snow stones, a group of snow lions, large and small, were deliberately piled up, jumping or lying down, sitting or standing. Architectural features The biggest feature of Geyuan is the concept and architecture of "rockery in four seasons". In less than 50 acres of the garden, four lifelike fake mountain areas have been opened, which are called spring, summer, autumn and winter respectively. The whole garden is centered on Yiyuxuan, and visitors can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the four seasons along the homeopathic direction. Judging from the use of extremely strange stones, Geyuan uses stones of different materials, reflecting different seasons, with bamboo stones as the main body and stones for peak distribution as the characteristics. Zodiac stone symbolizes spring, Taihu stone symbolizes Jiangnan scenery in midsummer, Huangshi sets off the tall and straight mountains in autumn, and Bai Xueshi highlights the cold feeling of snow in winter, with its own characteristics, expressing the poetry of "spring is gorgeous and smiling, summer mountains are green and dripping, autumn mountains are bright and clean as makeup, and winter scenery is miserable". Geyuan, with its novel theme and rigorous structure, is a special case of China gardens. The salt offering ceremony for cultural activities is an integral part of the Spring Festival experience tour for salt merchants in Ge Yuan. The staff of Ge Yuan Management Office expressed the hope that through this activity, more citizens and tourists will feel the lively atmosphere of salt merchants during the Spring Festival, understand how salt merchants worshipped Salt god 300 years ago, and learn more about their culture.
