The Stork Tower, known as one of China's four famous historical and cultural buildings, is located in Yongji City, Shanxi Province, in the Yellow River Golden Triangle region where Qin, Jin and Henan provinces meet.
The Stork Tower, the ancient name of the stork and magpie building, because there are storks and magpies perched on its name, its former site in Yongji City, the ancient Puzhou City outside the southwest of the Yellow River bank. Puzhou Prefecture records: (Stork Tower) old in the county southwest of the Yellow River in the high mound, when the stork perched on it, so the name. Floor of the original system of the Northern Zhou (AD 557581) General Yuwenguo (Xianbei tribe) town outside the river, built for the layer of buildings. Because of the building body spectacular, peculiar structure, majestic, coupled with superior location, beautiful scenery, the literati, writers and artists, more than to climb the building to look forward to, sing and express their feelings, and left a lot of condescending, majestic view of the great river of the immortal chapters. Tang Dynasty poet Wang Zhilu climbed the building when he was inspired to write down the sun is the end of the mountains, the Yellow River flows into the sea. The Yellow River flows into the sea. I want to see a thousand miles, but I want to reach a higher level. This song has been popular for a long time, urging people to strive for improvement and inspiring the revitalization of the nation. The great scientist Shen Kuo in the Northern Song Dynasty wrote in Mengxi Bianzhan that the three-story Stork Tower in Hezhongfu, looking forward to the Middle Strip, and overlooking the Great River below. Tang people left a lot of poetry, but Li Yi, Wang Zhilu, Chang when the three can strengthen its view. Such as Li Yi's "Stork Tower": Stork Tower West 100 feet mast, Tingzhou cloud tree *** Mangmeng, Han's piping and drums empty running water, Wei's mountains and rivers half-sunset. Things go a thousand years is still hate speed, sadness comes a day that is long. The wind and smoke and up homesickness, far from the eyes of non-family also hurt themselves. Poet by the magnificent landscape of the mountains and rivers associated with the sadness of the shortness of life. Another example is Chang Dang's "Stork Tower": very close to the birds, the river into the broken mountains. The sky is surrounded by flat fields, high above the world. This poem can be said to be the best description of the scenery of the Stork Tower. Ma Dai, Sima Zha, Wu Rong and other poets who were very popular left a lot of good lines. However, the poem that has been handed down to this day and is well known to women and children belongs to Wang Zhilu's "Climbing to the Stork Tower", which was written by Wang Zhilu, a talented scholar from Taiyuan. Although this poem is only twenty words, but with thousands of giant rafters, painted down the north of the river and mountains of the majestic momentum and magnificent scenery, people's heart bold. The poet's mind, shaken by nature, realizes a simple but profound philosophy, which can urge people to abandon their shallow and shallow knowledge, to climb up and open their eyes, and to continuously develop a new and more beautiful realm. The first two lines of the poem are about the natural scenery, but as soon as it opens, there is a tendency to shrink 10,000 miles at hand, so that the hand has the momentum of 10,000 miles. The last two lines of writing, written unexpectedly, the philosophy and scenery, the situation dissolved seamlessly, become the storks on a monumental masterpiece. Therefore, for thousands of years, this poem not only inspires the Chinese nation to strive for improvement, but also reveals the philosophical truth that only by standing high can one see far. According to the Qing Dynasty poetry critics, Wang's poem is just twenty words, the first cross has been exhausted, and the second cross has the momentum of a thousand miles.
The Stork Tower, with its high platform and heavy eaves and black tiles and pillars, not only accounts for the victory of the river and mountains, but also according to the show of the Willow Grove, as early as in the Tang and Song dynasties, it has been known as the Zhongzhou land of the ascent of the resort, and the fame spreads far and wide. Stork Tower standing Jin looking at Qin, it is independent of the Central State, looking forward to the Zhongtiao Mountain show, the next view of the river running, the purple gas degree off and into the west, the Yellow River touching China and the east convergence of the Dragon, the Dragon Tower, under the eight states, the grand and magnificent scenery of the mountains and rivers, attracting countless celebrities throughout the ages, climbed to the end of the gift. With the victory of the mountains and rivers of the famous buildings in Puzhou, almost became a stage for the great poets to compete. The place where the Stork Tower is located is the birthplace of 5,000 years of Chinese civilization, where the Yellow River returns to the sea. Yongji was called Pu Ban in ancient times. Before Xia, Shang and Zhou, Emperor Yao and Emperor Shun built their capitals here. The history of civilization here has a long history. The Xihoudou Ancient Human Cultural Site, 20 kilometers away from the Stork's Tower, demonstrates the Paleolithic Age, 1.8 million years ago, where human beings began to use fire and to use beaten stone tools. Legend has it that the ancestors of the Huaxia people, Fuxi, Nuwa, and Huangdi, all left traces of their axe-making history in this area. The Xia of the word Huaxia refers to the historical Daxia nation, whose prosperity was symbolized by Yao, Shun and Yu, and whose core of activity was in the area around the eastern part of the river. And according to the Taiyan Literature Record, Hua refers to the area around Huashan, which is the area on the west bank of the Yellow River. The west is Hua, the east is Xia, the stork tower is located in the center of the historical coordinates of China and Xia. This coincidence makes the stork building covered with a layer of magical color, think about it, the stork building interpretation of the spirit of self-improvement of the Chinese nation, we can not help but marvel for it. Poetry because of the building, building because of the name of the poem. Tengwang Pavilion famous because of Wang Bo, Yueyang Tower immortalized because of Fan Zhongyan, Yellow Crane Tower famous because of Cui Hao, Li Bai, and the storks are also famous because of Wang Zhilu and stayed for ages.

October e c, according to this state, so I got to go to the building site, leaning on the hover, the love of clouds, although the Jie Guan Wei land, the past is not. And the river and the mountains of the great, the wind and smoke of victory, not different from the past. When the early Yuan building has been destroyed. At the beginning of Ming Dynasty, its old foundation still existed, after the Yellow River flooding, the site was flooded, resulting in the destruction of the building scenery lost. People simply to Puzhou west city building as the stork tower, climbed to make a fugue ceaselessly. Early Qing Dynasty poet Shang Dengshi wrote: river and mountains only love to love people to swim, long pull xi wheel pan evening flow. Thousands of miles of poor eyes poetry is good, so far the shadow of the day to the West Tower. Xichenglou is really a reputation, in fact, difficult to match. Over the centuries, the stork tower to countless visitors empty left unlimited regrets.
Since the reform and opening up, with the strengthening of economic development and cultural construction, repair the storks increasingly strong call. 1992 September to participate in the sixth National Tourism Symposium of nearly one hundred experts, scholars to Yongji visit, joint initiative to rebuild the storks. To this end, Yongji City in December 1997 on the banks of the Yellow River groundbreaking, opened the Stork Tower reconstruction project prelude to the destruction of this building since the beginning of the Yuan more than 700 years after the first reconstruction.

The internal furnishings of the Stork Tower at the end of July 2004 has been basically completed, in order to enhance the cultural connotation of the cultural buildings, increase the participation of tourists and ornamental. Stork Tower interior furnishings focus on the Hedong culture and the Yellow River culture as the theme, fully explaining the Yellow River is the earliest birthplace of human civilization, the ancestors of the Chinese nation here wrote a brilliant history of the era spanning the next five thousand years of China. Among them, the "Zhongdu Pu Ban Prosperity Map" made of hardwood colorful plastic recreates the prosperous scene of Puzhou City in the flourishing Tang Dynasty, which is vivid and beautifully realistic. The stories of Yuwen Guo's "Building a Building and Garrisoning the Border" and Wang Zhilu's "Painting the Wall at the Flag Pavilion" are expressed in the form of European molding, which is noble and elegant. There are also stories and legends of Shun Emperor, Yu Emperor, Guan Gong, Liu Zongyuan, Sima Guang and other figures represented in Chinese history in the form of reliefs, murals and sculptures. At the same time, there are salt production, iron smelting, sericulture, paper-cutting, New Year's paintings, social fires and so on, reflecting the hard-working and wisdom of the people of Hedong and the rich folk crafts, which have fully reproduced the long-lasting Chinese civilization. I believe that in the near future, the storks will become a model for the promotion of Chinese civilization.
The Stork Tower is the symbol of the Yellow River, is a symbol of the unyielding Chinese nation, and its renewed splendor marks another prosperity of the nation and the motherland's take-off again.
