Stone Carvings on Cliff at Shimen, Baoxie Road, Hanzhong (Thirteen Stone Carvings at Shimen) The first batch of national key cultural relics protection units "Cliff Carvings at Baoxie Road" announced by the State Council. The oblique road is the longest and most convenient Shu road crossing the Qinling Mountains. Shimen is a tunnel dug during Yongping period in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it is the earliest artificial mountain crossing traffic tunnel in the world. Scholars in the past dynasties carved 178 kinds of stone carvings in Shimen Tunnel and its north and south cliffs, among which the most famous one is the thirteen products of Shimen, which is known as the national treasure. Thirteen products of Shimen refer to thirteen kinds of cliff stone carvings published between the Shimen tunnel of Gubao ramp and its north and south cliffs.

The stone is mica schist, the surface of the slate is uneven, and there is a gully in the middle. The calligraphy style is that there is a seal script in the middle, which is quite old. This calligraphy style is unique in China and is known as a national treasure. The full name of "ode to Shimen" is "ode to Yang Junsong", which was built in the second year. It, together with Fugue and Xixia Fu, is called Han Fu, which is Jong Li's masterpiece and calligraphy treasure. It describes the history that Yang, a captain of the deceased, refuted public opinion and finally completed the oblique road, and also reflects the history of the intersection of four roads between Qinling Mountains in the Eastern Han Dynasty. These are not recorded in the history books. Therefore, it has extremely high historical document value. Ode to Shimen is an excellent official script, which represents the highest level of ancient official script. It is bold and simple, vigorous and elegant, and it is a masterpiece that calligraphers have been trying to copy for thousands of years. In Qing Dynasty, Zhang Zuyi commented that "in the past three hundred years, I don't know how many people have studied Han steles, but no one has studied Ode to Shimen, which is full of vigorous and unrestrained spirit. Timid people dare not learn, and cowardly people can't learn. " Since then, there have been stone carvings in the Han Dynasty, such as Yang Huai, Yang Bi Biao Ji and Li Ting Dao Ji.

At that time, it was a book that praised the water splashing like rolling snow. The word is carved horizontally, with a height of 67㎝, a width of 148㎝ and a diameter of 35-46 ㎝. It is said that it was written by Cao Cao. The inscription "Wang Wei" with a diameter of 6.5㎝ is quite different from the word "Gao Xue". Although the cliff has gone through years, the handwriting is clear and the charm still exists. Shimen Ming is a cliff stone carving carved on the east wall of Shimen, Baohe, Yongping, Northern Wei Dynasty. This is a famous stone carving in the Northern Wei Dynasty.

It was written by Mao Yan, the first official in the Southern Song Dynasty, and it is the representative work of the officials in the Song Dynasty.

On the west side of the main peak of Zifangshan in Xuzhou, there is a new cliff stone carving landscape, which is hidden among pines and cypresses and covers an area of about 400 square meters. It was carved by stone sculptor Xie Zhonghua in the 20th year (199 1 year-2011year). Stone carvings contain more than 50 metrical poems by contemporary poets, written by dozens of calligraphers in the form of authentic works, cursive script, official script and seal script. The theme of his poems is to praise Sean, covering historical records and legends such as Sean Beating the King of Qin, Treading in Kaminooji, Embattled, and Sean Playing the Flute. Poetry strictly follows the rhythm of poetry, and adheres to the principle of "poetry follows the level and rhythm follows the Central Plains" in rhyme.

In the east of Xi Shi, there is a handwriting that has been illegible due to years of weathering. According to the records of the Qing Dynasty, this cliff has 69 characters, but it can recognize 37 characters when it is fashionable. The article wrote: "On the sixth day of March in the second year of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Sun Tan swam to Yuanshanhai to see the fairy medicine, because it made Fang Shan County live." This stone carving is the oldest stone carving in Laoshan Mountain, and it is also an important historical material for studying the history of Laoshan Mountain. Stone carving is related to Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty. The bold and beautiful emperor sent people to Laoshan to collect herbs for his longevity, but he was killed when he met four beautiful women, Yang Guifei. "The emperor gave up his early hearing." As can be seen from the stone inscriptions, alchemists in the Tang Dynasty used to collect herbs in the Guan area and built a mountain house for collecting herbs. I'm afraid the establishment of the famous Taoist temple is related to this.

Hualou Scenic Area has the largest number of ancient poetry inscriptions. Since the Yuan Dynasty, Laoshan Hualou Scenic Area has become a must-see for senior officials and scholars who come to visit Laoshan.

Taiqing Palace, also known as the Qing Palace, is the oldest and largest Dojo in Laoshan, among which Shangqing Palace and Mingxia Cave belong.

The stone carvings in Taiqing Palace include the imperial edict of Genghis Khan, Qiu Chuji's poems, and the original works of Kang Youwei in modern times. Of course, the documents of land boundary and title deed are often "stone carvings as evidence", which shows that real estate disputes often occur in Laoshan history. In order to avoid disputes, stone carving is the foundation. In the outer Manchu corner of the Shangqing Palace, there is a stone pier engraved with the title deed, which accurately records the number of temple properties measured in the fifteenth year of Jiaqing in the Qing Dynasty. According to the article "Records of Laoshan Mountain", "There is a passage engraved on the stone next to the passage from the Sanguan Hall of Taiqing Palace to the Sanqing Hall, which records that after the restoration of Taiqing Palace in the 28th year of Wanli (1600), Laizhou Prefecture found that there were four palaces in Taiqing Palace, with the words:" There are 24 1 mu of incense burning volcanic ruins in the temple. East to Zhangxi 'an Pagoda, west to Langshui, south to the sea and a foot temple, all are incense, landless for the people, and never start classes. Draw a clear line between the palaces and carve stones as evidence. "At this moment, this stone was erected by the government to avoid disputes between local farmers and Taiqing Palace in later generations. Ancient stone carvings were found in the upper reaches of Bashui River in Laoshan Mountain. This cliff stone carving is well preserved, with clear lettering and dignified and quaint calligraphy art, which is amazing. The inscription on it is "Taiqing Palace Boundary", and the slightly smaller word is "Flower prodigal son". Therefore, the terrain is dangerous and inaccessible, which is "kept in a boudoir and unknown". Therefore, there is no record of the stone carving in Laoshan, and there is a "Taiqing Palace Boundary" not far from the same place. Because of the dangerous terrain, I looked for it several times and wanted to return. It is understood that there was a boundary pillar lying on the ground in the Bashuihe parking lot, and now the boundary pillar is missing. There are also stone carvings in the Taiqing Palace near the Fairy Ladder on the old Laoshan tourist route.

Confucius said, "The knower enjoys water, and the benevolent enjoys Leshan; The knower moves, and the benevolent is quiet; Those who know are happy, and those who are benevolent are longevity. " It means that wise people like water, and benevolent people like mountains; The wise are active, while the benevolent are quiet; Wise people are happy, but benevolent people live long. A wise man is a wise man. Smart people are quick-thinking, active in thinking, and active in temperament through rational thinking, so they use water as a metaphor. A benevolent person is a kind person. Good-hearted people are content with reason, kind and tolerant, but not impulsive, calm and stable, so compare mountains; There is a poem in Cui Hao that says, "The green hills are endless, and the green water will never grow." Its poetry is that some people enjoy water and others enjoy Leshan, which is more enjoyable, but also depends on temperament; Wang Guan also has a poem: "Water raises eyes and mountains gather eyebrows." If you want to ask pedestrians which way to go, your eyebrows are shining. "It can be seen that different people have different opinions, and different mountains and rivers do have their own merits. People also have their own love and pursuit. While appreciating the old saying, we have to admire their point of view: even if we can't reach it, we must yearn for it.
