Rainbow Bridge
"Yangzhou is good, the first is the Rainbow Bridge. Yangzhou willow green Qi three feet of rain, cherry red broken a Xiao, everywhere in the orchid radius", this is the history of Yangzhou famous rainbow bridge. This bridge is one of the twenty-four scenic rainbow bridge repair in Yangzhou, built in Ming Chongfen years, across the safeguard water.

Sun afternoon boat under the bridge, clothes and people are too hasty" is more popular, even Qianlong has also composed poems to appreciate the scenery of the Hongqiao.
Now in front of us in this group of magnificent buildings, is today's Slender West Lake, the South Gate, the South Gate of Slender West Lake, like a barrier to the Slender West Lake scenery half-hidden half-exposed, like a beauty, "holding a pipa and half cover the face of a thousand calls to come out". Foyer eaves of the "Slender West Lake" three-letter plaque, is the late Yangzhou calligrapher Sun Long father's handwriting. Foyer on the porch columns of a threshold couplet reads: "Heaven and earth is selfless, spring flowers, autumn and moon as much as I stay, leisure is the master, and not between the plain spring grass and trees; lakes and mountains twice as much as the beautiful, Jiege Pavilion by who embellished, everywhere a different face, really does not reduce the qingés painting."

Long Beach Spring Willow - Small Square Pavilion - Peach Blossom Dock
"Long Beach Spring Willow is the most dependent, only after the rainbow bridge will be fascinated." It is most interesting to visit Long Beach Spring Willow in spring, strolling along the lakeshore, seeing three steps of peach, five steps of willow, I wonder if the visitors have the feeling of being scared of the heart. In the melting spring breeze, the peach blossoms are colorful and gorgeous, and the willows are dancing gracefully. The long embankment is like a gallery full of colorful curtains. It is true that "the peach blossom rain is wet, and the willow wind is not cold". People say that "the most affectionate is Yangzhou willow", Yangzhou is the willow city since ancient times, the ancients described the green poplar city is Yangzhou, according to legend, when Yang Guang, Emperor Yang came to Yangzhou, ordered the excavation of the North-South Grand Canal, the river dug up, the Hanlin scholar Yu Shiji suggests planting willows on both sides of the river, one can be shaded, and at the same time can protect the embankment. Emperor Yang also hand-carried a willow tree, and gave the name "Yang", and then people called the willow tree for Yang Liu.
Xu Yuan
At the end of the long embankment is Xu Yuan, which is the ancestral hall of Xu Baoshan, a warlord during the Xinhai Revolution. On the doorway "Xu Yuan" son by Yangzhou late Qing dynasty filial piety lian "Mr. Wind" Ji Lianggong writing, Xu for the regular script, the garden for the cursive, the use of the garden's outer frame, cleverly put Xu Baoshan's nickname "Xu Tiger" tiger word forward in the garden. The word "tiger" of Xu Baoshan's nickname "Tiger Xu" was forwarded in it, which became an anecdote of Yangzhou's inscriptions.
Xu Yuan named shrine, in fact, is a very exquisite garden. Standing outside the garden, the moon gate as a picture frame, into the garden is first yellow stone stacked lotus pond. Pool is the pavilion Xuan, in the oriole pavilion, take Du Fu "two oriole song cui-liu, a line of egrets on the blue sky" meaning, the pavilion nanmu floor cover partitions, engraved with pine, bamboo and plum patterns, Yangzhou wood carving for the fine arts. East for the Pavilion, the Pavilion is the "Xu Garden Tablet", the inscription for Yizheng Mr. Wu Entang wrote. The west of the pavilion is "Spring Grass Pond Yin Shelter", which takes the meaning of Xie Ling Yun's "Spring Grass in the Pond". Two iron woks in front of the door, is more than 1,500 years ago in the Xiao and Liang period of the town of water, visible when Yangzhou smelting industry developed Yangzhou's economic prosperity. This small garden has a pavilion, a pavilion, a pavilion, a curved water outside, a pond inside, flowers, trees, bamboo and stones, just right. This garden is Slender West Lake main entrance into the first garden, visitors into which a sense of Jiangnan garden exquisite. People who have not been to the Slender West Lake, thought that this is the appearance of the Slender West Lake, in fact, this is precisely the construction of the gardeners painstakingly, giving people a "mountain of doubt, dark flowers and a village" feeling.
Four Bridges of Smoke and Rain
In the Xu Garden to the east, is one of the twenty-four views of the northern suburbs of the Qing Dynasty, "four bridges of smoke and rain" building, whenever the "mountain color is also strange rain" at the same time, here to appreciate the scenery is "four bridges flying across the smoke". Whenever "the mountains are covered with mist, the rain is also strange", the scenery here is "four bridges flying across the smoke". Climbing up the building and looking into the distance, you can see four bridges with different colors and shapes, namely, Chunbo Bridge, Dahong Bridge, Changchun Bridge and Lotus Bridge. In the haze of smoke and rain, the four bridges are far and near, and get a gallant, high and low. Qianlong was very fond of the scenery here, many poems and writings, and the Royal "interesting garden".
Through the Xu Yuan, standing on the small rainbow bridge, a sudden sense of enlightenment. Looking west, is the most open scenic area of Slender West Lake, let us gradually into a better place, to appreciate the Slender West Lake's nickel style.
Little Gold Mountain - Wind Pavilion - Benshi Bookstore
We went through the back door of Xu Guo, crossed the small rainbow bridge, and came to Little Gold Mountain. So how did Little Gold Mountain come to be? It turns out that in the Qing Dynasty, in order to welcome the arrival of the emperor, the salt merchants excavated the new river Lianhua Ridge, with the excavation of the river mud piled up in front of the small Jinshan. At that time, the ridge is full of plum blossoms, the fragrance is overflowing, so it is called "Meiling Chunshen". It is said that when the pile of soil into a mountain, repeatedly piled repeatedly collapsed, three years not, the Governor is also anxious to dizziness, once in his sleep, saw Guan Yu led the soldiers are hitting the plum blossom piles, will be a few groups of piles in the heart of the river, and then piled up the soil into a mountain. He woke up, immediately follow this method, ten days later, really piled up into a "small Jinshan". After the Qianlong tour to this, heard about this great joy, around the opportunity to even winks said: "His Majesty's southern tour, moving heaven and earth gods, even Guan Di also took the initiative to serve the emperor." Qianlong more happy, that is, ordered a heavy reward. In order to thank Guan Yu dream, Cheng Zhi bolts special in the small Jinshan built Guandi Temple.
By the way, perhaps some people will have questions, Yangzhou, why always quote people's names? Hangzhou has a West Lake, this is called Slim West Lake; Zhenjiang has a Jinshan, this is called the small Jinshan. It turns out that the near people cleverly take the "thin" of the West Lake, small Jinshan of the "small", pointing out the Yangzhou garden of the wonderful is "borrowed", and borrowed and borrowed cleverly, it is really "borrowed a corner of the West Lake, can be used for a small Jinshan. Borrow a corner of the West Lake, can boast of its thin; moved to the Gold Mountain half point, why borrow a small.
The strange stone in front of us is a relic of the Song Dynasty flower stone outline. Ancient transportation with a boat number to keep track of the number, ten boats for a program, with the boat to transport flowers and stones, known as the flower and stone program. Back then, the Northern Song Emperor Song Huizong was fond of planning consciousness, and on the occasion of his 60th birthday, he decided to build a Wanshou Mountain in Jingcheng Kaifengfu. This stalactite from Guangxi was left behind in Yangzhou during transportation as the Jin soldiers came south.
Here we go along the bowl winding mountain road, pick up the level, the ridge is the wind Pavilion, plaque for the Qing Dynasty famous poet and scholar Ruan Yuan inscribed. The mountain is not high, expensive level, the water is not deep, expensive in the twists and turns. At this time overlooking the small Jinshan, on the wind Pavilion, in the Guanyin Pavilion, under a variety of forms of halls, very hierarchical, surrounded by the blue water when wide and narrow, when straight and curved, so that people feel that there are endless changes and rich in natural momentum.
The ancient city of Yangzhou is a famous historical and cultural city, Slim West Lake has been called "Hanmo Garden", everywhere shows the characteristics of literature and art. Now we have come to the waterfront and built the piano room, in front of the door of the two cypress, the age of the trees are more than 200 years old, the tree is higher than the eaves of several zhang, onions stacked green. Please follow me into the courtyard of the qin room, please look at the east vase door carved on the stone forehead of the two words "Jing Guan", which is the handwriting of Deng Shiru, a great calligrapher of the Qing Dynasty. Behind the piano room is the Wooden Label Bookstore. Visitors: please keep quiet. Why? Because this is where reading is done, so naturally it should be quiet. There are 15 old cinnamon trees in the garden, and when the flowers bloom, the fragrance is intoxicating, also known as "Cinnamon Garden", wood swing is a nickname for osmanthus.
Yue Guan
It is reasonable to say that after the piano room, chess room, study, there must be a drawing room, egg chess room money only Yue Guan, no drawing room, chess room Yue Guan is a drawing room. The original Chinese poetic art, painting art emphasizes the combination of real and virtual, especially for painting, noble in the "pen less than the intention to", garden such as painting, gardeners also emphasize the real and virtual, if the moon view into the drawing room is too realistic, and tasteless, unbearable, Yangzhou Slim West Lake will not have the name of the Hanmo Garden.
Moon view in the Qing Dynasty Hai Mei furniture carving content and moonlight related. Those lotus flowers, mandarin ducks, lotus leaves, lotus root joints, all natural and vivid, is a representative work of Yangzhou wood carving craft.
Deadwood in spring
Deadwood in spring is a garden vignette, it is two pieces of wood and stone, snuggled up to each other, a large area up to 6 meters high, a tree stump bonsai. Yangzhou has a Tang Dynasty ginkgo, has a history of 1,000 years, after being struck by lightning, from the middle of the two pieces of wood off, later they will be embalmed, moved here, after planting a Lingxiao, Lingxiao is a vine, climbing on it, if the summer, the top of the wood and stone dismissed orange-red trumpet flowers, from afar, a fiery red, in order to count and then live, as the so-called "rottenness for the miraculous! "Therefore, it is named" dead wood into spring ".
Wuting Bridge
"Weiyang much water, so to bridge victory", Wuting Bridge is not only a symbol of Yangzhou Slim West Lake, but also a symbol of Yangzhou City. There are five pavilions on the bridge, so everyone calls it "Wuting Bridge". The bridge was built by Gao Heng, the Imperial Salt Inspector, to welcome Qianlong's second southern tour (1757), and because it is shaped like a blooming lotus flower, it is also called "Lotus Bridge". Total length of 55.5 meters, the bridge base is divided into 12 piers of different sizes, the most unique is the bridge base, although the large blocks of bluestone masonry, but very delicate, bridge pavilion proportion appropriate, harmonious configuration, the bridge builder built the bridge base into a "f*cking" shaped, the main bridge for the single curve arch bridge, side structure of the 4-wing, each wing each has three half-arched bridge holes, together with the drawbridge two Fan-shaped bridge holes, *** there are 15 holes.

Standing on the bridge to the east, the east side of the bridge, the building is surrounded by water called Teal Village. Built in 1921, it was named after the ducks that float in their sleep. Its overall architecture is compact and appropriate, effectively set off the Wuting Bridge and the White Pagoda, becoming an indispensable embellishment of the Slender West Lake.
White Pagoda
South of the Wuting Bridge is the Lianshi Temple, originally known as the "Fahai Temple", first built in the Yuan Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty Kangxi forty-four years (1705), was changed to "Lianshi Temple". The famous building inside is the White Pagoda, which has a history of nearly two hundred years. The pagoda is a brick structure, divided into three layers, the upper layer is called the brake, the middle layer is the niche, all in a round shape, the lower layer is the pagoda base, square. The whole shape is similar to the White Pagoda in Beihai, Beijing. It is said that this White Pagoda was created overnight. One day, Qianlong's cruise ship arrived at the Wuting Bridge, suddenly said to the accompanying officials of Yangzhou: "How much this place resembles the Qiongdao Chunyin ah in the North Sea of the capital, it is only a pity that it lacks a white pagoda." The next morning, Qianlong opened the window to see a white tower towering next to the Wuting Bridge, thought it was from the sky, beside the eunuchs hastened to kneel and said: "It is the salt merchants to make up for the regrets of the Saint upstream of the Slender West Lake, rushed into production overnight." It turns out that this white tower is one of the eight salt merchants Jiang Chun with ten thousand gold bribe Qianlong around, according to the Beijing white tower of the drawings, and then use the salt packet as the basis for the surface of the paper tie, made overnight. Although it can only be seen from afar and not climbed, Qianlong said with emotion, "People say that Yangzhou salt merchants are rich in the world, and it is true to its name." Of course, the real tower can not be caused overnight, it is the party built in what year has been unable to prove. But the White Pagoda belongs to the Lama Tower, the system of Tibetan Buddhist monasteries in the tower system, in the Slender West Lake is only as a decoration and. It is 27.5 meters high, the shape of the silhouette than the White Pagoda in the North Sea, long and thin, the tower is a brick sculpture of the waist of the Sumeru seat, octagonal four sides, each side of the three niches, niches carved twelve Zodiac statues, symbolizing the 12 months of the year, the 12 hours of the day. Build platform 53 levels, symbolizing the children worship Guanyin 53 Sen; phase wheel for 13 layers, symbolizing the highest place in the sky 13 days. It is: everywhere there is a symbol, when there is a hint, gardening techniques used very skillfully.
Xichun Terrace
If the Lean West Lake from the Hongqiao to the small Jinshan for a fold, the lake from north to south to east and west, over the blowing platform, through the Wuting Bridge, to the fold, the lake from east to west to north and south, until the foot of the Shugang Mountain. The starting point of the second turn is the front of the group of magnificent imitation of the Qing Dynasty building - Xichun Terrace. The so-called "Xichun" is to take the "Laozi" "crowd of people, such as the spring stage" meaning, showing a kind of spring ascension, and the integration of nature, the realm of transcendence and self-enjoyment. Xichun Terrace and the small gold mountain opposite each other, are in the lake at the turn of the place. It is the year Qianlong birthday place, so everywhere reflects the grandeur of the royal garden opulence. All the buildings with green glazed roof tiles, and the yellow tiles of the Wuting Bridge in the distance, the White Pagoda's jade body and gold roof. The decorations inside the Xichun Terrace use Yangzhou lacquer craftsmanship, especially this mural "Jade Maiden Blowing Xiao Figure", which adopts the craft of Yangzhou grinding lacquer painting, showing a group of Tang Dynasty ladies singing and dancing in a spectacular scene.

"Little General Li painting this Xuan" is designed according to Li Zhaodao's painting, because "big Li small Li" **** created the Tang Dynasty "Jinbi landscape painting school", therefore, we today through the fan-shaped window Therefore, we today through the fan-shaped window to view the opposite Xichun Terrace brilliant silhouette, can be associated with the art of the Sheng Tang Dynasty that kind of graceful and luxurious weather.
Twenty-four Bridges
"The green hills are hidden and the water is far away, and the grass in Jiangnan is not tuned in the end of autumn. The night of the moon on the twenty-fourth bridge, where does the jade man teach to play the Xiao." This is the Tang Dynasty poet Du Mu left us a thousand years ago, for thousands of years, twenty-four bridges with its beautiful and handsome picture, misty fantasy mood, romantic and melodious mood of the countless writers and writers of the heart strings. So why is the Twenty-fourth Bridge named after it? Please see, the whole bridge is made of white jade masonry single-hole arch stone bridge. It is 24 meters long, wide
2.4 meters, each end of the 12 steps, each side of the 24 alabaster carved columns, 2.4 meters high and wide. The bridge is decorated with moon motifs, beautiful and elegant. The east side of the bridge has a walled yellow stone rockery, and the west side has the Xichun Terrace, which reproduces the poetic mood of the Tang poems. Here, we do not see twenty-four bridge bridge name, but everywhere implies the meaning of twenty-four. Of course, some people say that the 24 bridges refer to 24 bridges, but it seems that we do not need to make a tedious examination of the 24 bridges. Rather, it is better to savor the magical and free mood of Du Mu's poem, which "can only be understood, but cannot be conveyed in words". The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a pair of shoes or boots, and you'll be able to get a good look at them.
Linglong Flower Boundary
Linglong originally refers to the sound of jade, and has the meaning of clear vision. Earlier, there was a house with a wide pool in front of it, planted with white faces, and every summer, the jade flowers in the hall were dotted and glittering, so it was called "Linglong Flower Boundary". Linglong flower world north for the nine curved bridge, this bridge for the beam bridge, and twenty-four bridges correspond to each other. Azure are made of white jade, the corner of the station columns engraved with cloud patterns, the railing between the columns carved into butterfly patterns. Bridge that is the peony garden, Yangzhou has been famous for peony world, especially the twenty-four bridge is also known as the Red Medicine Bridge, because the bridge is planted all over the peony, so spring visitors like clouds.
"Twenty-four bridges month as about, yellow flowers bloom all over the Slim West Lake; Xizi Fan Li now if in, not to Hangzhou to Yangzhou." This is a long time living abroad, Li Hongzhang's grandson, Mr. Li Kong Xin to visit the Slim West Lake after the exclamation, I do not know whether you have the same feeling.
