Xinchang, a place with beautiful scenery, has been longing for a Xijiang person for a long time. When I was a child, I read Li Bai's poem "Sleepwalking Says Thank You and Leaves Farewell", and I have always remembered Xinchang. I still remember the beautiful poem "Xinchang". Sentences, I am indeed a poet, especially a few of them / I have not forgotten...seven..."..."._-_...玎-...__", I can hear chickens in the sky.
Based on these few words, even if I knew such a place when I was a child, I have always had the idea of going to this place. In addition to the mountains, rivers and Buddhist scenic spots, there are also famous mountain scenery that made great poets linger and dream of thanking them.
In May of this year, Qidian held a grand gathering event, which gave me the opportunity to realize my dream. I packed my luggage and set off with a "turbulent" heart.
Due to the rainy days, when the group arrived in Xinchang, they were thankful for the breath of the rain. The light rain fell sparsely, which gave me a new understanding of Xinchang.
After arriving at the designated accommodation, we took a short rest and enjoyed our first sumptuous lunch. We thanked Daodao for the Xinchang delicacies, such as the juice made from mulberries, which has a unique texture and tastes quite good. In addition, there are also Xiangye I was still doubtful about the peanut rice at first, but later I realized that it was a local specialty and a good thing that needed to be offered as an offering in ancient times.
After the welcome banquet, we started to go to the first place today, which is also the most famous place in Xinchang, the Xinchang Buddhist Temple.
It was raining outside. Under the guidance of the tour bus, we arrived at the gate of Xinchang Buddhist Temple. Due to the rain, not many people came. For tourism, rainy days are also a different kind of tourism.
The Great Buddha Temple was founded in the early Yonghe years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and has a history of more than 1,600 years. According to the "Biography of Eminent Monks", in AD 45, the eminent monk Tan Guang came to Shicheng Mountain in order to appreciate the strange mountains and waters of Xidong. He was especially influenced by the outstanding eminent monks at that time, Zhu Daoqian and Zhidong, who returned to Xidong to live in seclusion. Tan Dao thanked him in the stone chamber and built the "Yinyue Temple". This was the beginning of the Xinchang Buddhist Temple. Nowadays, a new section of city wall has been built outside the scenic area, and the city tower stands tall and majestic. Standing on the city tower makes people feel yearning.
Entering the gate of the scenic spot, it was raining lightly and there were not many pedestrians, but you could tell that this was a place with a beautiful environment and an atmosphere of tranquility everywhere. Invincible Upgrade King
First of all, on the mountain on the roadside, I saw a huge Buddha character, which can make people... 6. The quiet Buddha character. Standing in front of this "Buddha" character, all the irritability seems to recede, as if facing an eminent monk, I can't help but With a smile, this thing like Buddha is really very "nature".
This is a famous scenic spot in Buddha County - Buddha Heart Square. The so-called Buddha Heart Square is because of the word "Buddha" and the word "heart". I saw the word "Buddha" engraved on the cliff, one meter high, which is the handwriting of Master Hongyi. A lotus fountain is built in front of the "Buddha" rock. Crystal spring water spurts out from the lotus heart carved from white jade, spreading tranquility and freshness.
After seeing the "Buddha" font, we passed by a lake, which is also quite a famous place, called the Life Release Pond. It is a place where good wishes are inherited. It was a pity that God was not kind and could not see any turtles being released.
Although I didn't see the turtle, my mood was not affected by this. After all, today I mainly came to see the Buddha, which is the most important thing.
When the Buddhist temple appeared, the smell of incense was everywhere. I also saw the legendary word "face the wall" and the real word "face the wall". I seemed to understand one thing. Facing the wall is good even if it is simply facing the wall, especially After hearing what the guide said, I realized that these two words were of great significance. They were originally inscribed by the ancient Mi Fu.
Mi Fu inscribed the word "Facing the wall", which is not for monks and visitors to face the wall and think about their faults, but for Maitreya Buddha to face the wall and say thank you. Because he actually took the Mahavira as his own and sat on the throne safely. Where did he place the Buddha Sakyamuni? Of course, the Mahavira here is several feet shorter than the ground because of this.
After passing the word "face the wall", everyone walked up the steps to enter the Mahavira Hall. But here, they walked down the steps to enter the Mahavira Hall. The Maitreya statue here is a Maitreya grotto statue dug into the mountain. The entire Buddha is integrated with the mountain. Although it has gone through more than 1,600 years of vicissitudes, the Buddha is still majestic, graceful and elegant.
We happened to meet the abbot, who performed a ritual ceremony specifically for us. It was very solemn and solemn, so we went in with him. We saw three giant Buddhas, but they were not real giant Buddhas, but we thanked them and got a taste of real Buddhism.
After leaving the Main Hall, we went straight to the Great Buddha Temple, today's theme. At this time, it started to rain outside, and it was drizzling, but it couldn't stop our enthusiasm.
At this time, the abbot was already waiting at the door. We followed in and saw a huge Buddha statue with brilliant golden light and a sword-foot-long light. It was today's protagonist, the Xinchang Buddha.
In the attic, there is a giant stone Maitreya Buddha sitting in a grotto in the cliff. It was carved against the rock. The front Buddha seat is 2 meters high and 13.74 meters tall. The head is 8 meters long, the ears are 8 meters high, and the distance between the two eyes is 10.6 meters. rice. It is the only remaining relic of early Chinese grotto statues in the south and is known as "the largest Buddha in the south of the Yangtze River".
The abbot looked solemn. After some explanations, we went to burn incense. For the first time, we learned that there is such a rule for burning incense. Sure enough, Buddhist culture is more rigorous and solemn than imagined, and it is not as simple as imagined. .
After lighting the incense, we came out, still savoring the solemnity and solemnity of the Buddha.
After the Great Buddha Temple, he went to several places one after another, and at the same time he also left his own Tang poems. This can be regarded as a treasure of calligraphy. Although it is difficult to write
I don't even know what it looks like. Invincible Upgrade King
After leaving the calligraphy treasure, we must take a look at the largest reclining Buddha in Asia. It is said that the current investment is more than 30 million. We walked up the stairs along the plank road. After a while, we reached the Reclining Buddha Hall. Sakyamuni is lying on the Sumeru lotus throne. The Buddha body is 7 meters long and 9 meters high. The mouth of the Buddha statue is carved according to the rock mass of the grotto. The face of the Buddha is like a full moon. The eyelids are slightly drooped. His right hand is resting on his head and his left hand is naturally closed. The side of the body, the whole body is well-proportioned, the posture is free, and the expression is peaceful, showing the artistic charm of Sakyamuni's death.
Standing in front of the temple, you can lean on the railing and look into the distance. Maitreya is in the distance in the open sky. Looking up, you can see the continuous green mountains, the clear water like a mirror, the black tiles and yellow walls located in the green, and a ray of auspicious light faintly shrouding the temple. No worldly thoughts at all. The Reclining Buddha Hall is surrounded by greenery. The Mirror Lake in front of the hall is crystal clear, with fish swimming around. There is a stone bridge with carved railings on the lake, and famous flowers and trees are planted on the open lawn, forming a tourism that integrates Buddha, water and scenery. Great place to relax.
After coming out of the Great Buddha Temple, it is natural to go to another unique place in Xinchang, the legendary Daoxie Mountain. This is a place that must be visited after coming to Xinchang.
It is not easy to climb the Great Wall now. Similarly, if you don’t go to Daoxie Mountain when you come to Xinchang, it means you have never seen what Li Bai said about climbing Qingyun Road, because Qingyun Road is at Daoxie Mountain.
Daoxie Mountain is named after the "Queen Mother". It is the main mountain in Xinchang, Shaoxing. It is composed of Boyunjian, Zijian, Dajian and other mountains. It is a group of rolling and majestic peaks.
Early the next morning, we set out for Daoxie Mountain. Before going to Daoxie Mountain, we reviewed the ancient post road. This is a road that can go all the way to the stables. It is equivalent to today's provincial road. It is difficult for you to imagine that the ancients How was such an ancient road built
Walking on the broad ancient post road, this ancient road is about 35 kilometers long and passes through many places along the way. Due to travel problems, we walked through part of it and learned some allusions, especially Taoyuan Cave and Sima, which are very allusive. regret bridge,
When you are on Tianmu Mountain, you will understand the ancients' yearning for nature. Tianmu Mountain is truly the miraculous workmanship of nature. Only after you have been here, you will know that this trip was not in vain, and what is real nature? .
After going to Daoxie Mountain, I have to mention an important place, which is one of Xinchang's specialties - tea.
Tea, of course, needless to say, it was in places like Xinchang that a famous tea - Big Buddha Longjing came out.
When talking about Big Buddha Longjing, I have to go to one place, which is another itinerary on my schedule - Wozhou Lake Scenic Area.
Wozhou Lake Scenic Area is located 12 kilometers southeast of Xinchang, Xijiang River. It is one of the three provincial-level scenic spots in Xinchang. The scenic spot mainly includes two parts, Wozhou Lake and Daoxie Mountain, with a total area of more than 50 square kilometers.
Sitting on the boat and seeing everything on Xingu Wozhou Lake, you will know what outstanding people and places are. Xinchang not only has the largest reclining Buddha in Asia, but also tea that is closely related to the tea ceremony. At the same time, you can also be lucky enough to see the entire Daoxie Mountains. , and even make people have endless wild thoughts.
After tasting the green tea, I felt relaxed and happy, as if I could see hundreds of poets gathering at Wozhou Lake back then, and I seemed to be one of them, writing my own ancient poems!
After the green tea, we went to a famous place on the lake island called Qingyun Villa. We sat by the lake, drank scholar's tea, and enjoyed the feeling of the sun setting. In the evening, we went to barbecue. A large group of people barbecued, and the scene was very spectacular. , didn’t leave until quite late.
After visiting Wozhou Lake, I felt very excited. I don’t know when I will visit such a beautiful place next time.
When visiting these places, you have to go to another place, and that is the famous tea trading Nianye in Xinchang, commonly known as the Chinese Tea Market. Here you will meet businessmen from Nianye all over the country, and see the largest tea trade, which is full of exquisite things. Tea leaves, let you know, what is tea, what is the tea ceremony
Since we arrived relatively late, the transaction scene was not what I imagined the girl to be. However, we could still see that tea has become an indispensable thing nowadays. We took some photos as a souvenir and left this place.
The next place, which is also very meaningful, is called Dali Congsi Yao
The reputation is very orthodox, but in fact it is an ecological gathering place.
As soon as I entered, I saw tall mulberry trees. These mulberry trees were collected from the huts and formed a mulberry kingdom. Going further, I was shocked again and saw mulberry tree fossils that were hundreds of millions of years old.
For people like me, I had no idea that the mulberry tree could still become what it is now, and it could even reach this point in time, which is simply an unimaginable miracle.
In the Dali Congsi Ecological Park, we also saw the Mulberry King and the Mulberry Queen. They were absolutely unimaginable existences. They were all transplanted from outside.
Because I went at the right time, the large mulberry trees in the ecological park still had mulberries hanging on them, so I had a little taste of them, and they had a unique taste.
After eating mulberries, it is indispensable to go through the steps of making silkworms, and the silkworms happen to be eating them. They are ready to turn into cocoons and spit out silkworms.
For those who have never seen it, this scene is definitely attractive. For the Xijiang people to whom I thanked, this scene is still common.
Ancient crafts have now been replaced by machines. There happens to be machines in the Dali Cong Silk Garden, which are incomparable to manual work. Under the guidance of the guide, we went upstairs to visit various Cong silk products, such as quilts. Bedsheets, ties, cheongsam and other products of gratitude are eye-opening
Realm, I wish I could take them all back.
We had lunch at the Ecological Park Hotel. They were all famous snacks, such as fried mulberry leaves, which you can't imagine, and silkworm chrysalises, which are extremely high in protein, but I didn't eat them because I thought the taste was too strong. , but I ate some myself, and the taste was quite spicy. At least it was my first time eating it, and it turned out not to be as scary as I thought.
With the end of the hotel, this trip to Xinchang has also come to an end.
In a hurry, I visited places one after another. Xinchang left shadows everywhere. The mountains and rivers were woven together to form a beautiful image that people will never forget.
Walking on the road, I suddenly heard a few words and smiled. Perhaps, these few words represent everything.
Xinchang, just come~~
