Introduction to Wuyi Guodong Scenic Area:
Guodong Scenic Area is located among the mountains and ridges 10 kilometers away from Wuyi County. It is named after the mountain ring is like Guo and the peaks are like caves. The scenic area of ??about 5 square kilometers is filled with mountains and green bamboos and trees, making it quiet and pleasant. The scenery outside Guo Cao towers over Beidou, and the beauty inside the cave reflects Nanshan Mountain. This is an apt description of Guo Cao Scenic Area by the ancients.
The ancestors of Guodong, an ancient village wonder, can be traced back to He Zhizhong, the prime minister of the Song Dynasty. From the Yuan Dynasty to the third year of the Yuan Dynasty (1337), descendants built a village imitating the "Nei Jing Tu", a treasure map of learning immortality and cultivating Taoism from Baiyun Temple in Beijing. The city wall was built to form a water outlet, a Huilong Bridge was built to collect gas and wind, trees were planted around the village to improve the environment, residential buildings and passages were planned, and seven-star wells were cleverly built to form an excellent living environment with "a mountain ring like a country and a deep cave like a cave". Named Guodong. It is known as "the No. 1 Feng Shui Village in Jiangnan".
Primitive Forest Wonder Village Donglongshan Primitive Forest, the mountain is triangular, known as the "Green Pyramid." The mountains are full of towering trees that are six or seven hundred years old, containing primitive mysteries and showing ancient magic. Ancient There are many kinds of trees, including the southern yew and other national first-class rare tree species. The air in the forest has extremely high negative oxygen ion content, which is a rare natural oxygen bar and forest bathing place.
Guodong Village is a family cultural wonder. Emphasizing education, talents emerge in large numbers. In the Ming and Qing dynasties alone, there were 146 scholars, tribute students, and candidates. The He family has a profound culture. The grand, simple and well-preserved He family ancestral hall is the epitome of Guodong family culture and rich ancient culture. The relics are amazing. The villagers are in good health and have a long life. The average life span is over 85 years old.
According to the records of Wuyi County, the history of Guodong Village can be traced back to the Song Dynasty. It was found that Guodong Village developed in the Yuan Dynasty (1350 AD). He Shouzhi, a descendant of Wuyi, went to the mountain to visit his grandmother who lived in Guodong Village. He saw thousands of green peaks, towering ancient trees and green streams. Double notes, strange peaks appeared one after another, and I couldn't bear to leave for a long time. I suddenly wanted to move to Guodong, and I got the consent of my grandfather, who was the deputy envoy of the Guangdong Administrative Bureau, and my grandfather, who was serving in the army in the imperial court, and my parents to build a house and buy property in Guodong. For more than 640 years, the He family has continued to have descendants, with nearly 5,000 descendants, becoming a prosperous and famous family. What makes Guodong people proud and endless is that their ancestors have many talents, starting from He Zhizhong, the prime minister of Song Huizong. In the Ming and Qing dynasties alone, there were 10 tribute students, 14 Zengguang students, 10 courtesy students, and 114 prefecture and county scholars. Danwanshan Village has such a gathering of talents that the old Guodong people attributed this to Feng Shui. .
From a modern perspective, Feng Shui is nothing more than topography. But in the Chinese cultural system, the combination of Feng Shui and Yin Yang Bagua has become an important part of ancient Chinese metaphysics. The emperor's accession to the throne, down to the choice of the cemetery and the direction of the homestead, are all closely related to Feng Shui. Looking at the formation of ancient Chinese villages, it is not difficult to find that Feng Shui plays a role that cannot be ignored. He said that his love for Guodong is not only because of the beautiful scenery. The He family tree has this description: "(The ancestors) looked at the yin and yang, looked at the clear spring, and the direction was correct." "He Shouzhi was convinced that this was an "invincible place". It was Feng Shui that made him leave the bustling county, bid farewell to the prestigious mansion, and come to this small village "surrounded by mountains like a country and deep like a cave." This He family The ancestors believed that Guodong would bring prosperity to his family.
The terrain of Guodong is indeed unique. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides, like a blessed land, and it is rare to have a flat land in the north. In the distance, there are green mountains on the left and right embracing each other, which just corresponds to the saying of "lion and elephant guarding the door". After the two streams merged, they flowed around the village along the west mountain, so a Huilong Bridge was built across the stream to convey the Feng Shui of this treasured land. It is tightly wrapped and there is another legend about this building with the longest history in Guodong, which was built in the Yuan Dynasty. Huilong Bridge was originally called Shihong. The ancestors warned that Shihong could not collapse. Troubles broke out frequently in the village, the four people were unemployed, suffered from disasters year after year, and the livelihood was not prosperous. Some image practitioners also said that "the bridge is a gen-like image. It rushes downwards and rushes upwards. It is not conducive to the palace to relax the bow from west to east." , "The mountain is a dragon mountain. If you live there, the dragon will come back. The bridge cannot be abandoned."
The weir water makes a bridge, and the dragon's return energy gathers." So the villagers focused on the geographical advantage and based on the hexagrams, selected the location to build the bridge. After that, the bridge was destroyed and repaired, and then repaired and destroyed. During the Qianlong period, a square pavilion with stone pillars was built on the top of the arch bridge. This increases the beauty. Ten miles away in Shicanling, the tower on the north mountain is almost in a straight line with the Huilong Bridge, which shows the painstaking efforts of the ancients in creating the Feng Shui situation.
Anywhere. No matter how exquisite it is, if it has no cultural connotation and cannot appreciate the cultural landscape, I am afraid it will always lack aftertaste. It is also attractive because it has a large area of ??ancient buildings from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Although it is rare to see wealthy families and courtyards, the village houses are complete. It is so well preserved that it can be said to be a chronicle of architecture from the Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China. The simple and generous Ming Dynasty pillars, the exquisitely carved Qing Dynasty corbels, and the doors and windows of the Republic of China influenced by Western style are everywhere. What is very interesting is the overall layout of Guodong, which is connected by Guoshang Village and Guoxia Village.
Although Guodong is located in the mountains, education has been advocated for generations, and children are determined to study and serve. This has become one of the folk customs of Guodong. More than 400 years ago, the 8th generation ancestor Jingshan Gong founded the private school "Xiaozhuzhai" in Guodong. During the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, it was expanded and renamed "Fengchi Academy". As a reading song, "One generation has no scholarly fragrance, but no one can continue it in ten generations." "If you don't read books and have poor etiquette, even if you have children and grandchildren, they will all be busy" has been passed down from generation to generation. Unfortunately, the original site of the academy has been destroyed and a new school has been built. The people of Guodong not only studied literature, but also practiced martial arts. A martial arts hall was built in the village. It was due in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. There are 114 scholars in the village, 35 of them are Wu scholars, and there is also a martial arts scholar.
Every ancient village has a "water mouth", which literally seems to be a place where streams converge, but in fact it is a water mouth. A checkpoint for foreign enemies at the entrance of the village. Guodong Shuikou is particularly unique. To the east of Huilong Bridge is the 400-meter-high steep Longshan Mountain, which is covered with hundreds of acres of virgin forest covered with clouds and fog, and is connected to the west mountain bridge covered with thorns and dangerous rocks. The stream flows rapidly, and there is a 5-meter-high solid city wall outside the bridge. A road passes through it. In the old days, villagers all entered and exited through the city gate. There is a couplet carved on stone at the city gate: "The scenery outside Guo is ancient, and the sun and moon are in the cave." long. "Hengbiao is "Shuangquan Guli".
Shuikou can be said to be the soul of Guodong. Outsiders come here. Most of them will be deeply affected and awe-inspiring. The people of Guodong are knowledgeable in books, etiquette and martial arts, and are patriotic. Wuyi County recorded that "in February of the fifth year of Shunzhi, Shankou City killed Liu Jiaqi, the county magistrate." This was a righteous act of the Guodong people who had the ambition to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, and refused to accept the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. After that, the imperial court was furious and wanted to mobilize more troops. During the siege of Guodong, Zhou Leize, who was in charge of Jin, Qu, and Yan Daotai, lied to protect the people of Guodong and said that on the way, he had to pass through "thousands of miles of stone canang ridge, hundreds of miles of heavy loads, and five miles of big rocks", and "people have to turn sideways, and horses have to pass through." The Qing army was timid and retreated. Later, the court finally discovered the truth and skinned Zhou Daotai with mercury. In order to commemorate this eternal benefactor, the villagers of Guodong built a colorful sculpture of Zhou Leize in the Xiazhao Temple outside the village. For example, place his memorial tablet in the Wenchang Pavilion at the east end of Huilong Bridge, and offer sacrifices to him every year. He wanders by the clear stream at Shuikou, walks alone under the towering ancient trees of Longshan, takes a sip of the treasure spring that has never dried up for a hundred years, and reads the sea. Linyuan and Wenchang Pavilion's Liwen, watching the undulating pines and rushing rain clouds, your heart will sink into history and your imagination will wander
