Although the content of Feng Shui is becoming more and more complicated, including absurd preaching and deceptive deception, under the guidance of its rational thinking, there have indeed been many excellent architectural works in the history of China. The Ming Tombs in Changping, Beijing, and villages and towns in Huizhou in southern Anhui are among them.
The Ming Tombs were built in the seventh year of Yongle (1409). In order to find an auspicious cemetery, Ming Chengzu ordered Jiangxi Feng Shui master to find this mountain in Changping, which was named "Tianshou Mountain" after Judy's personal reconnaissance and confirmation. Later, twelve Ming Di built tombs here one after another, and Feng Shui masters participated in the specific determination of their tomb sites.
The terrain where the Ming Tombs are located is surrounded by mountains in the north, east and west, and the south is open. The mountain stream flows southeast after merging with the Yulingqian River. There are two hills on both sides of Shinto 6 kilometers in front of the mausoleum, namely "Longshan" in the east and "Tiger Mountain" in the west, which conforms to the four-spirit orientation pattern of East Qinglong and West White Tiger. According to geomantic theory, Tianshou Mountain stretches and Long Mai is prosperous. The mausoleum stands to the south, with the main peak towering behind, surrounded by "sand protection (mountain)" on the left and right, and extending to the extremely southern Beijing Plain. The "Tang Ming" (base site) of the mausoleum is flat and broad, with lush vegetation and "vibrant" veins, which is undoubtedly an excellent place for the mausoleum. From Dahongmen all the way inward, people can appreciate the touching effect of the harmonious combination of mausoleum architecture and majestic mountains.
As a national tourist attraction, the Ming Tombs have really good scenery, and there are also many people lacking as royal tombs.
First, the shape and potential of dragons are good, but the mountains are bare. How can we gather gas? The burial book says, "It's like a heavy house, a thatched tree and a government." Obviously, there must be lush trees and lush weeds on the mountain. From the surface to the inside, we can know that before we can do acupuncture, Long Mai must have exuberant "anger". This rule must be the source of dragon-seeking anger. There are five people in the mountain who can't be buried: "Qi can't be buried because of the soil." Tianshou Mountain in the Ming Tombs has no soil and is bare. Soil gathers water, and gas follows water. This mountain is steep. Why should we gather soil? Five hundred years ago, trees were not necessarily flourishing.
Second, the "Burial Book" says: "Xuanwu does not erect a corpse." The kangling of the Ming Tombs is Xuanwu.
Third, the "Burial Book" cloud: "The method of Feng Shui, water is the best." The water of the Ming Tombs comes from Tianshou Mountain, which sits on the mountain. The water source is too short. Looking at the old riverbed downstream, it is more than ten meters wide. More than 500 years ago, peach blossoms flooded in spring, and the water flow was still very large and slow in flood season and rainy season, because the terrain was flat.
The Ming Tombs is a natural mountainous area with specifications. Its mountain range belongs to Taihang Remnant Vein, which connects Juyongguan in the west, huanghua town in the north and Changping in the south. It is not only the barrier of the mausoleum, but also the north screen of the capital.
Gu, a famous scholar in the late Ming Dynasty, once wrote a poem describing the superior situation here: "The mountains are coming from the south, and the momentum is like a dragon, and the dragon leaps and leaps;" East toe in Lulong, west ridge in Taihang; Sitting on the yellow flower in the back (referring to huanghua town), facing the Shenjing; There is an old house called Kangjiazhuang. It can accommodate millions of people and suddenly open. " This beautiful natural landscape was regarded as a treasure trove of geomantic omen by feudal rulers. Under the guidance of China's traditional geomantic theory, from site selection to planning and design, the Ming Tombs attached great importance to the harmonious unity of mausoleum architecture and natural landscape vegetation, and pursued the perfect realm of "heaven and earth" to reflect the philosophical view of "harmony between man and nature".
