Cao Weifeng Xuchang hang composition

Recently, I went to Henan because of something, and went to Xuchang by the way.

In ancient times, "a scholar can know what's going on in the world without going out." What about today's information age? I consulted some materials before I went to Xuchang. Although there are no mountains and rivers in Xuchang, Xuchang is the old capital of Cao Wei, and Cao Cao lives in Xuchang. Here, wise men are widely recruited for hegemony, so there are many places of interest and historical celebrities, which is a scenic spot of the Three Kingdoms culture. There are more than 90 places here, such as Yuxiutai where Emperor Han offered sacrifices to heaven, Poetry Building of Cao Cao, Spring and Autumn Building where Guan Yu read at night, Deer Shooting Platform where Emperor Han offered sacrifices to Cao Cao, Baling Bridge where Guan Yu bid farewell to Cao Cao, Tomb, Tomb of Dong Fei and Tomb of Empress Fu.

It is also known that Xuchang is the birthplace of Xu's surname. In ancient times, a tribe named Shu or Xu lived here. Legend has it that Yao Yu abdicated, unwilling to be firm, ashamed of it and retired to the waterfront.

This time I got off at the bus stop next to the downtown railway station, which was very convenient. But this time the bus arrived in Xuchang and entered the North Station, which is a suburb and far from the city center. On the way to the bus and garage, I saw that most of the station names on the bus stop sign were occupied by advertisements, while the station names in the following station name chain were red, but it was difficult to see clearly during driving. The electronic attendant said that he had arrived at the railway station and got off, but he was cheated again. One stop away from the railway station, he was fooled by the electronic station attendant!

Xuchang seems that tourism is ok. I have a habit. When I arrive at a tourist destination, I will buy a local map. They are usually sold at street kiosks.

The next day I went to Baling Bridge, where Guan Yu resigned from Cao Cao. The park is well built, with 30 tickets. The first thing I saw was a group of relief sculptures of Guan Yu bidding farewell to Cao Cao. Yes, Guan Yu, Cao Cao and Liu Bei's two wives, Cao Bing, died in Shu, and a bunch of characters were very measured. There are lush trees in the park, and a river passes through the park. There is a tall arch bridge on it, which was built on the Cuban Mausoleum Bridge. There is a tall statue of Guan Yu on the east side of the bridge. Guan Yu immediately rushed to the bridge with a knife in his face, which is very majestic. But from the perspective of tourism photography, it is a failure. Because of the great height difference, it is difficult for tourists to take photos of Guan Yu, Baling Bridge and himself.

Similarly, photographers can't combine themselves, elephants, Cao Chong and the Cao Chong Elephant Monument, because elephants, Cao Chong and monuments are distributed in a triangle. If the layout of the three is basically in a straight line, then all photos can be taken.

Qiaoxi is a well-preserved Guandi Temple, which is divided into Shanmen, Guan Yu Sacrificial Hall, Bell Tower, Taoyuan, Guan Yu Lifelong Gallery and Qianbaling Bridge. Guan Yu is on the right side of the main hall, and Cao Cao is on the left. It is said that this is the only place for Guandi Temple and Cao. There is a small three-way flat bridge behind the temple, with a span of more than ten meters and a height of no more than two or three meters. It is said that this is Baling Bridge, Guan Yu who resigned from Cao.

Rockery, stone bridges, rivers, pavilions, winding paths, cruise ships, trees, flowers, birds and cicadas constitute a quiet park. This kind of scenery is conducive to the public to rest, so the general entrance fee is five yuan, but you can't enter Guandi Temple. The largest number of birds in the park here is grey magpie, and Xuchang also has many "West Lake Parks". It seems that this "city bird" in Xuchang belongs to grey magpie.

Emperor Xiandi was dissatisfied with Cao Cao's monopolization of power, and Dong accepted the imperial edict and killed Cao Cao. After the story was revealed, Cao Cao executed a bunch of people. Even Dong Cheng's daughter Dong Fei, who was pregnant in June and May, was strangled alive and buried in a small river in the east of Xuchang. There is a poem that says, "The deep palace graciously locks the cuckoo, and the heaven is implicated for no reason. I was pregnant with dragons in May, and the emperor hid his face in vain. " One of them is from the same clan. He went there by taxi. When I arrived at a big tomb, I saw it was renovated. I saw trees on the tomb, white stone railings around it, and stone slabs on the ground. There are two stones and two wild animals hugging each other in the north and south. But there is no tombstone. Is this Dong Fei's tomb? Asked the tourists that it was not all, the brother even said it was the wrong tomb. I carefully looked at the base of the headstone beast and saw the pattern of phoenix engraved on it, confirming that it should be Dong Fei's tomb. I never worship when I enter the temple. This time I stood in front of the tomb and worshipped three times.

In the northern cities, the land is probably too wide, so the roads are wide and the squares are wider. But walking on this wide street always feels empty, unlike southern cities, and it feels very popular. There are many newly-built parks, roads, squares, trees and flowers, but unfortunately, most of the trees are small trees, which can't provide shade from the wind at present. We also planted many camphor trees, which are very warm in the south of China. This kind of tree is in trouble when it encounters a cold wave. Generally, this evergreen tree is only born in Jiangnan.

There are many new parks. It seems that the Xuchang municipal government has also invested a lot of money here to create a good place for citizens to relax. Ssangyong Park is one of them, named after Ssangyong playing in the water. There are winding paths, pools, fountains, squares, small bridges, colored lights and water tables in the park. However, due to the new construction, the trees have not become cool. It is worth mentioning that it is also very popular to hang signs under many trees to introduce the family and genus uses of trees. This method is very good, and there are still few cities that do it at present. However, the contents of several plant brands are wrong. For example, the red leaf oxalis of Oxalis is said to be Chinese milk vetch (a green manure crop-grass seed) of Leguminosae, Acer truncatum (a kind of Acer truncatum) is regarded as the maple fragrance of Hamamelidaceae, and a plant of Ilex is said to be the maple fragrance of Oleaceae. The children are roller skating in the square, and there is a swimming pool next to it. There is no protective railing, which is very dangerous. The water in the pond is very green, which is an abnormal green full of cyanobacteria. If you put some snails and mussels in the water, you can improve the water quality to some extent. This method was used in Hangzhou West Lake in 1950s. There is a black and smelly river next to the park. It would be nice if some shrubs were planted densely on its shore, so that you wouldn't see this indecent water when you walk on the park road.

The next day, I went to the West Lake Park in Xuchang. I didn't buy a ticket when I entered the door, but I bought tickets everywhere. Actually, it is a leisure park, with boating, trampoline, maze and zoo. It feels good to sit in the park, on the park lawn, under the tree and by the lake. There are many birds in the park, turtledoves cooing among the trees, beautiful grey magpies flying around, or eating green bean-sized Shapu fruit on the sand Pu Shu, or Guoguo red like bayberry on the paper tree. Across the street, a flock of birds stopped on the willow tree, with their tails forked. They are black-tailed birds. They ran to take pictures, but unfortunately they flew away. Sitting by the lotus pond, I picked a beautiful lotus flower, and a black-faced tit flew over the willow branches. I raised my camera and it sounded an alarm-there was no electricity. Somehow, there are no guiding signs at the entrance of such a comprehensive park, and there are no signs at the intersection. According to the business purpose, there are entertainment, canteen, WC and import and export. Just name them one by one. It seems that the vision of park managers and operators is limited to locals!

Although there are many scenic spots in Xuchang, there are very few real tours. Cao Wei's cultural relics, which were famous in the world for more than 0/700 years, were almost destroyed before liberation. Sun, a native of Haining, Zhejiang Province in the Ming Dynasty, wrote a poem: "Ask Dexing Pavilion first when you arrive in the state, and it is ridiculous to say that you are in ghosts. Fang sighed at the ruins of the ancient road and heard that abandoned wells were scattered all over the place, which showed the horror of the destruction of Xuchang historical sites. So far, there are only two places to go near Xu Changcheng, namely the Spring and Autumn Pagoda and Baling Bridge, both of which are scenic spots about Guan Yu. . I've been to the Spring and Autumn Building before, but I won't go this time. In the afternoon, I visited the Xuchang History Museum under Wenfeng Tower, and the corridor in the museum was meticulously painted with pictures of the Three Kingdoms. Xuchang was originally the capital of Wei, but the Guandi Temple, the Spring and Autumn Building and the Museum are all praising Liu, the enemy of Wei and Shu, especially Guan Yu, which shows how influential a novel is. In fact, the most useless of the Three Kingdoms is Liu Bei, and Cao Cao and Sun Quan are much better than him.

To leave Xuchang, take a bus at Xuchang Railway Station and buy an express train to Zhengzhou. Outside the bus station, there are many workers with red stripes on their shoulders. In fact, it's just dripping outside, but it's messy inside, and the level is average. Although there are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ..., the entrance is empty.

After the bus left Xuchang, I thought a lot. I have been to many cities, but this trip to Xuchang made me particularly impressed. Xuchang's friends call me an "old hand" because I know too much, and call me an "old picky" because Xuchang's urban management needs to be improved. Of course, I only saw a small part, but this is a window for outsiders to observe. I hope our Xuchang will make greater progress tomorrow.
