April is a world of flowers, where colorful flowers compete with each other and bring out the vitality of spring. In April, it is also the time for peonies of national colors to blossom. Just entering the peony garden, the refreshing fragrance of the flowers will come to your nose, and in a row of beds and a slice of green leaves, the flowers of various colors are delicate and full of colors, and the petals are overlapping, and there is a big red one like a ball of fire; there is a white one, which seems to be a snowy white disk; there is a green one, which looks like a crystal clear emerald; there is a pink one, which is a stream of light; and there is a purple one, which is like black precious jade, and they show off their colors. Jade, they show their "King of Flowers" graceful and luxurious, sound.
As the breeze blew by, the peonies swayed on the thin stems like dancing girls, attracting many bees and butterflies to linger. Walking along the winding path, there was a stream that was hidden or appeared vaguely, and the clear water was like the peony fairy's eyes flickering with beauty and passion. Suddenly, I thought peony is spiritual, red makes one's blood boil, purple makes one's silence, yellow makes one's heart bright, white makes one's heart pure and frank, green makes one's thoughts come to mind, and pink makes one's heart elegant and gorgeous, and isn't the colorfulness that peony gives to the world the wonderfulness of life?
In the middle of Peony Garden is the Cultural Square, in the center of which stands the Peony Garden theme sculpture "Peony Soul", the reason why it is called "Soul" is probably the symbolism of "Flowers **** glory and blight with the national fortune, and people follow the fortune of flowers with the sadness and joy"! The square around the soul of the peony is magnificent, one meter in diameter, nine meters high, nine cultural stone pillars, respectively, carved with Heze's major historical events, historical figures and customs and folklore, constituting the square's cultural colonnade. Here is the most concentrated, the most lively tourists, everyone or stand around together to enjoy highlighting the local vernacular characteristics of the martial arts opera performances, or sitting on the stone steps to take a break, or with the peddling of small commodities vendors to bargain, a few new wave of old ladies can not contain the excitement of the plaza walked up the modeling step, caused a applause.
Another cultural place of Peony Garden is the National Flower Hall, the scale of which is definitely the largest in the world. Its center of gravity is the Peony Culture Exhibition Hall, which has a large peony pattern in the hall opposite to the entrance, and on both sides of the hall, the east and the west; in the center of the hall, there is a bronze casting of the Peony Tripod, and on both sides there are bronze sculptures of twelve goddesses of flowers; in the east is the Hall of History of Peony, and in the west is the Hall of Culture of Peony; in the second floor is the Hall of Peony Fine Arts and Chart; and in the third floor is the Hall of Cultural Arts of Peony. The third floor is the Peony Culture and Art Hall. When browsing through the halls one by one, I could not help but be touched by the feeling of favoring peonies in this economically underdeveloped city in the southwest of Shandong Province, and I wondered how the people of Luoyang, which is known as a peony city, would feel if they saw this scene.
In the purple peony and white peony viewing area in the garden, there are two statues of flower fairies, clad in the morning sun and red dress, which are said to be the two beautiful maidens Ge and Yuban described by Pu Songling in "Liaozhai Zhiyi Ge", and this place allows visitors to not only enjoy Ge and Yuban, two kinds of valuable peony flowers, but also see the gorgeous posture of the peony fairies, "the palace make-up is colorful", "the palace make-up is colorful", and "the palace make-up is colorful", and "the palace make-up is colorful". ", "the slender waist is full of water", and "the jade muscle reveals the hot fragrance at first." It reminds me of that mythological story: Chang Dajun, a scholar from Luoyang, went to Caozhou, Shandong Province (i.e. Heze) to look for valuable peonies, and in the garden, he met a beautiful girl, who passed away in an instant, and Chang Dajun was so in love with him that he became sick with lovesickness. One day, Chang Da-Yong met this girl again, and kneeled down to propose to her. The woman was touched by his sincerity, and returned to Luoyang with Chang Da-Yong.
And introduced his sister, Yuban, to his brother, Chang Dazhi, as his wife, and each had a son. Although the two couples get along for a long time, but the sisters did not reveal their lives, only that their mother is Mrs. Cao, often with the suspicion of Daiyi, to find out the truth, I learned that Mrs. Cao was originally a peony Geshan purple. Daiyong was very surprised, and returned to Luoyang, where the secret was leaked. Dazhong went home, the couple's relationship broke down, Ge Turban, jade version of the anger to leave the Chang family, the two boys thrown on the ground on the way out. In the following year, two peonies were born in the same place, one purple and one white, i.e., two kinds of peonies, namely, Ge Scarf's purple and Yupan's white. The next year, two peonies, one purple and one white, were born in the same place, i.e. the purple peony and the white peony, and the white peony, the purple peony and the white peony, the purple peony and the white peony.
I like peonies, not only because they are graceful and beautiful, but more importantly, for thousands of years, Chinese people have regarded her as a symbol of wealth and prosperity. When I was leaving, I bought a pot of peonies with red flowers from a local florist, and let the fragrance of the flowers protect me on my way!
