What was the past life like in the Yellow Crane Tower?
Speaking of Wuhan, everyone will definitely think of the Yellow Crane Tower, a landmark building in Wuhan. Wuhan is a city with a long history, and the Yellow Crane Tower has been handed down from generation to generation. The Yellow Crane Tower is a great achievement of ancient artisans in China in architecture. The surging Jianghan, Sheshan and Guishan combine to form a beautiful scenery of rivers, mountains and buildings. There are many stories of past lives in the Yellow Crane Tower. Now let's get to know them together.

Since the Jin and Tang Dynasties, literati, princes, heroes and ordinary people have flocked to the Yellow Crane Tower, leaving behind countless legends, poems, couplets and paintings. , so that the Yellow Crane Tower has accumulated rich cultural connotations. The Yellow Crane Tower, 1700 years of history, has experienced and witnessed a series of major events in China's history: the victory of the Three Kingdoms War, Yue Fei's resistance to gold, the entry of the heavenly king into the city, the first righteousness of 1911, the northern expedition of the iron army, and the battle of Wuhan ... bearing indelible historical memories and witnessing the development history of Wuhan from ancient times to the present.

At the beginning, the Yellow Crane Tower was just a little-known watchtower. Until the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty, a poet named Cui Hao completed the Yellow Crane Tower, which became a generation of poet Cui Hao.

Looking back 1200 years ago, in the late autumn, at dusk, after the ups and downs of a career, a scholar whose talents were not satisfied stopped in a hurry. Climbing to the top of the mountain, you can see the endless Yangtze River water, the fog on the river is blurred, the Yellow Crane Tower with carved beams and painted buildings at the foot and the bleak autumn wind wrap the thin body of the poet, and a sadness rises from the bottom of my heart, which is the ups and downs of the official sea, the confusion of drifting, or the loneliness of finding a bosom friend. So I have mixed feelings and wrote a peerless famous sentence: in the past, the yellow crane carried saints to heaven, but now only the yellow crane tower is left; The yellow crane will never come, and the white clouds will never fly without him; Every tree in Hanyang becomes clear in the water, and Parrot Island is a nest of herbs; But I looked home, and the twilight was getting thicker. The river is shrouded in mist, which brings people deep melancholy.

Since Cui Hao, countless scholars have boarded the Yellow Crane Tower, not so much for the Yellow Crane Tower as for Cui Hao. Li Bai, Bai Juyi, Lu You, Yue Fei and the great Mao Zedong all left Mo Bao, but their fame was not as good as that of Cui Hao.

It is said that Li Bai was also poetic when he boarded the Yellow Crane Tower. He wanted to write poems. When he saw Cui Hao's poem on the wall, he put pen to paper and sighed: "There is no road in front of him, and Cui Hao wrote a poem on it". Therefore, in order to commemorate this story, a "writing pavilion" was built opposite the wall of poems written by Cui Hao. It is because of Li Bai's humility that Cui Hao's dominance has been further strengthened. In fact, it is Li Bai who really has the best chance and poetic affinity with the Yellow Crane Tower. Among nearly 100 famous landscape poems he left behind, Yellow Crane Tower poems account for more than one tenth. Farewell to Meng Haoran on the Yellow Crane Tower is regarded as the originator of farewell poems, and is as famous as Cui Hao's Yellow Crane Tower.

The past is over, the people of Sri Lanka are gone, and the Yellow Crane Tower is still there, just a different world. Today, I boarded the Yellow Crane Tower without drinking or reciting poems, just to see the whole picture at close range and feel the spectacular scenery overlooking the State of Chu. Today, the Yellow Crane Tower stands on the top of the Snake Mountain, and the park covers the Snake Mountain. It has been turned into a national 5A-level tourist attraction, covering an area of 40.3 hectares, with more than 80 scenic spots such as Goose Pond, South Tower, Baiyun Pavilion, Luomeixuan, Bianbi Pavilion and Duhe Pavilion. The Legend of Yellow Crane Tower is listed in the national intangible cultural heritage protection list.

Although it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the sunshine is wanton. The smelly sweat oozing from the stairs disappears in the breeze, and when you look far away, your heart suddenly becomes clear. The three high-rise towns in Wuhan have a panoramic view. According to the regulations of Wuhan Municipal Government, there is no building taller than the Yellow Crane Tower within a few kilometers of Fiona Fang, Fiona Fang, which makes the Yellow Crane Tower the only place in Wuhan overlooking the three towns. The vast Yangtze River is still surging, and Qian Fan is full, and there are hundreds of battles. The endless Yangtze River Bridge is magnificent and full of traffic, and the TV tower on the opposite Guishan is towering into the sky, conveying ever-changing information to the modern metropolis.

Three towns in Wuhan developed rapidly in the new China period. A bridge flies north and south, and the natural barrier becomes a thoroughfare. Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge flies across Guishe Mountain, which is a highway and railway bridge. The opening of the bridge has formed a complete Beijing-Guangzhou line, which has opened the vital link and lifeline of China's north-south traffic and brought more business opportunities for Wuhan's prosperity and development.

In the old society, a big river separated the people on both sides of the strait, and the only means of transportation was a simple raft. Even if my hometown is close at hand, I can only frown when I look at the misty river, and I can only invite the bright moon to send acacia. If Li Bai crosses the present and sees modern high-tech products, besides writing poems, he will definitely leave magnificent mountains and rivers with his camera or mobile phone.

Today's Yellow Crane Tower is not only a landmark building, but also endowed with more cultural and historical connotations. It is a landscape, reflecting every corner of the city; It is a history book, recording the tenacity and wisdom of the nation; It is a monument, engraved with the soul of China traditional culture; It is a sign that inspires future generations to dare to surpass; This is a legend, handed down from generation to generation.
