However, as a part of the Summer Palace landscape, it plays the role of finishing touch. Yuquan Mountain and Yuquan Tower can be clearly seen on the west bank of the Summer Palace, and the scenery will be changed. With the continuous progress, the mountains, towers, lakes and forests will show different levels of collocation and show different scenery.
the origin of Yuquan mountain
Yuquan in Beijing is on Yuquan mountain, which is named after the spring. Spring water gushes from the gap between the mountains, and the water rolls with silver flowers, just like a jade rainbow. Before the Ming Dynasty, there was a saying that "Yuquan hangs the rainbow" and it was listed as one of the eight scenic spots in Yanjing. According to legend, Emperor Qianlong of Qinggan often visited this place for sightseeing. In order to verify the water quality of this spring, people drew water samples from famous springs all over the country and compared them with Yuquan water. According to the weighing results, the quality of each bucket (silver bucket) of Jinan Pearl Spring, Wuxi Huishan Spring, Hangzhou Tiger Running Spring and Suzhou Tiger Hill Spring is above 122%, and only Yuquan water has only one or two, which is light and high quality, pure and sweet, so Qianlong gave it the title of the first spring in the world and inscribed "Yuquan Tutu".
Historical development
Because it is close to the mountains and rivers, it is not far from the capital city, so it was favored by the rulers at the end of the 12th century. According to legend, Jin Zhangzong once built Yuquan Mountain Palace and Furong Hall here. Since the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, it has also become a summer resort for emperors. At the end of 13th century, Yuan Shizu Kublai Khan built Zhaohua Temple here; During the period of Ming Yingzong, there were up and down Huayan Temple. In the 19th year of Qing Emperor Kangxi (168), the original palaces and temples were renovated and expanded. In the thirty-first year of Kangxi, the original "Chengxin Garden" was renamed as "Jingming Garden". The magnificent Yuquan Mountain Jingming Garden has become one of the "three mountains and five gardens" and is famous in all directions. In 186, the British and French invaders destroyed it, and it was restored again during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty.
