Write it before departure

An autumn rain and a cold weather. Falling leaves tell the autumn, and falling frost tells the cold. If the autumn wind gives autumn color, it must be a golden world. Ginkgo is the most gorgeous one under the sun. In autumn, it is incomplete without ginkgo. As the temperature drops sharply, the golden ginkgo season has entered. Against the backdrop of the sunset, fallen leaves are all over the ground, and everything you can see is golden. The ginkgo forest opens Buddha into a golden fairy tale world. Different from the sensitivity of a sycamore tree leaf to know autumn, and different from the brilliance of the maple leaf forest, the golden ginkgo is like the most romantic departure in late autumn. Although ginkgo trees are not distinguished between north and south, probably due to climate, ginkgo trees that turn yellow in early October in the north will turn yellow in the south until November or even December.

Daciyan Xuankong Temple, known as the "Little Jiuhua in Western Zhejiang" in Jiande, is about to shine brightly. The yellow leaves of ancient ginkgo trees that have stood for thousands of years are the best time to watch ginkgo trees in mid-November. In the late autumn of November and December every year, Jiande Daciyan welcomes the annual ginkgo season. Ancient ginkgo trees are covered with "golden armor", and fallen leaves fly all over the sky, scattering golden ginkgo "rain", forming a beautiful autumn scene. In this late autumn, when ginkgo leaves fall golden all over the sky, you may as well come to Jiande. Come encounter.

Daciyan Xuankong Temple

Daciyan is located in Jiande City, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province. It is a mountain landscape with a long history in my country's famous Fuchun River-Xin 'an River-and Qiandao Lake Scenic Area. It is also a tourist resort that perfectly combines Buddhist culture and landscape. Because it worships the King Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and shows his spirit, it is called the "Little Jiuhua in Western Zhejiang". Among them, the main peak of Daciyan looks from a certain angle to a vivid statue of King Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. It is named "the largest natural Buddha in the country". Daciyan is also named "the mountain is a Buddha, and the Buddha is a mountain" The natural wonder is included in "The Most of China".

Built on a vertical cliff at the top of the main peak, the Kiztigarbha Hall is built on a cave and hangs in the sky. It is similar to the Xuankong Temple in Hengshan, Shanxi Province. Therefore, it is called the "Jiangnan Xuankong Temple". The temple is cleverly constructed and spectacular. It is a treasure of Chinese art and the only Xuankong Temple in Jiangnan.

Xuankong Temple, as the name suggests, is a temple suspended on a steep cliff. Ancient Chinese craftsmen built the Xuankong Temple according to the Taoist requirement of "not to hear the sound of chickens and dogs barking". It was built by the ancients using the uneven parts of the cliff to cleverly follow the situation. Its architectural characteristics can be summarized as the three words "strange, hanging and clever". The same is true for Daciyan Xuankong Temple. The main temple, Kiztigarwang Hall, is embedded in the steep belly of the rock, and the other half is suspended above the cliff. It is very spectacular.

According to historical records, Jiangnan Xuankong Temple has a history of more than 700 years. How can Jiangnan Xuankong Temple, which is ostensibly supported by more than a dozen wooden pillars as thick as a bowl, withstand more than 700 years of wind and sun? In fact, the more than a dozen wooden pillars here are not strong at all. In addition, the place is located in a small basin in a deep mountain canyon, and the entire temple is hung from the cliff. When the floods at the foot of the mountain flood, this place will not be affected by anything and avoid the fate of being flooded. In addition, the protruding part of the temple's stone cliff peak is like an umbrella, which supports a natural "umbrella" for the ancient temple, thus protecting the temple from being washed by rain. So it can survive more than 700 years of wind and rain.

Looking at Jiangnan Xuankong Temple from a distance, you will think that it is a natural exquisitely carved embossed on a steep cliff; looking at Jiangnan Xuankong Temple up close, you will find that it is a cliff here, with the intention of flying in the sky. When we climbed up the steps to the highest point of Xuankong Temple in Jiangnan, it was more than 60 meters higher than Xuankong Temple in Hengshan. Looking down from the railing, we felt like "the cliff under our feet was about to collapse."

Ancient Ginkgo biloba from Daciyan

"The flowers are deep and the bamboo stones are fascinated by passers-by, and the dew is cold in the lotus pond and the distant Duke is asked; the moss steps are not swept away all day long, and the garden is full of ginkgo trees and autumn wind falls." In Daciyan in November, the Buddhist temple is quiet and deep, with a casual and faint Zen meaning, like a paradise outside the world. Go to Daciyan to see ginkgo at this time, and you can have a perfect encounter with the graceful autumn scenery. In front of the Xingxiang Zhai in Daciyan, there is an ancient ginkgo tree that is more than 700 years old. It is about 40 meters high and nearly 1.5 meters thick. Its branches are as strong as a dragon looking back. It can be called the "King of Ginkgo" of Jiande.

Autumn is strong, and the ancient ginkgo trees in Daciyan are ushering in the most beautiful time of the year. Perhaps because "she" took root in front of Buddhism and gained spirituality, many tourists who came to watch hung their wishes on the thousand-year-old tree and sent words of reverie. With the change of dynasties, under the protection of religion and the protection of its own tenacious vitality, the ancient ginkgo tree can still shed golden rain all over the sky. If a monk stops or passes by, it will feel more Zen.

The ginkgo trees in autumn listen to the Sanskrit sound, adding an extraordinary and worldly meaning to the ancient temple. Walking on the bluestone path paved thousands of years ago, admiring the ginkgo forest, and looking into the mountains and peaks, the ancient temples and ginkgo can't be better matched. The dense ginkgo leaves are like pieces of gold inlaid on the ancient ginkgo branches, and the breeze blows and flies on the branches like butterflies, becoming the most beautiful and unique scenery in the late autumn scenic spot. Looking around, it feels like the city is full of golden armor. It is awe-inspiring and majestic, magnificent and calm. The ginkgo trees are exposed with dazzling gold on one side, and countless fallen leaves are floating on the other, rolling against the ground with the wind, paving into a beautiful place.

For a thousand years, a tree has stared alone at the vicissitudes of the world. The late autumn of Daciyan belongs to ginkgo. Every year, its color changes from green to yellow, which is so beautiful that it is intoxicating. When the temperature dropped sharply, the fallen leaves flew, gently and quietly, as if in a blink of an eye, the yellow leaves had covered the ground. Standing under the ginkgo tree, it feels like experiencing thousands of years of past. Watch it all in an instant, the reincarnation of spring, summer, autumn and winter. Those lives that start in the slightest and return to the pure land. Perhaps it is because the environment here is too quiet, like an exotic paradise where gods and immortals live. Being here, the wind is quiet and the trees are quiet! Even time seemed to stand still!

At this time of the year, the ancient ginkgo trees in Daciyan will open the "golden tree" model, presenting a happy and beautiful visual feast for tourists who come here to seek beauty. Yellow ginkgo leaves are hung on the iron-dried branches of ancient ginkgo trees, shining brightly and dazzling under the sun. The breeze blew lightly, the dark fragrance floated, and the fallen leaves flew. It was like golden butterflies dancing in the air. They were light and beautiful. In an instant, they covered the ground. They were golden and brilliant, and the beauty was so fascinating that people couldn't leave to leave.

Immersive live-action performance "Jiang Qingyue Near People"

"Moving the boat to Yanzhu, the guests are worried about the new at dusk; the wild sky is open and the trees are low, and the river is clear and the moon is close to you." At dusk, the wilderness is vast. On the vast river surface of the misty river, only the lonely moon around you can comfort yourself at this moment. The sad heart... In just a few strokes, the poet star Meng Haoran vividly depicts the picturesque autumn dusk of the Xin 'an River in Jiande. Today, when tourism is developed, many people have tried to come here, hoping to experience the beautiful artistic conception written by the ancients, but after all, there are too few pictures to imagine. But now it is different. On Moon Island, which is comparable to the "Penglai Fairy Island" on the Xin 'an River in Jiande, a large-scale immersive live-action performance-"Jiang Qingyue Near People"-will take you through time and space, from the perspective of situation, mood, etc. Feel the endless charm from this ancient land.

"Jiang Qingyue Near People" is a large-scale immersive real-life performance project independently set up on the Moon Island in Jiande. It is directed by Mei Shuaiyuan, the famous director of the founder of my country's landscape real-life performance. The theme of the performance originated from the famous poem "Suiting Jiande River" by Meng Haoran, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. Among the big themes composed of the extremely artistic "river, moon, and person", the theme included "Xin 'an River, the eternal moon, life" and other beautiful situational interpretations and multi-layered spiritual expressions such as reincarnation, roots and nostalgia, past and present ". It shows tourists from multiple levels and aspects that the unique spirit and energy that began in the ancient land in the ancient "Jiande people" are endless in the life cycle and blood flow of the Qingjiang moon shining and the vicissitudes of the sea and mulberry fields.

Different from ordinary live-action performances,"Jiang Qingyue Near People" can be said to have many highlights. The first theater to perform was selected on Moon Island, where the "White Sand and Strange Fog" crosses the Xin 'an River. It is also the birthplace of my country's first Wuzhong Island Theater. It is located in the center of the Xin 'an River in Jiande. It is named because Yuanwang looks like a moon floating on the water. "There is a Xin 'an River, which is so beautiful in blue and blue; there is a moon island floating on the water..." This excellent Chinese tourism song "Moon Island" depicts the moon island on the Xin' an River, which has the unique scenery in the world.

The island has green forests and green trees and dancing waterbirds. Although the area is not large, the environment is elegant, like a fairyland. The river water is clear and pure, and the mist is vast. Wherever the breeze passes, the coolness is refreshing. Every morning and dusk, the mist on the river is dense and looming, full of mystery. Tourists can take a panoramic view of the Qingjiang River and the bright moon in the fog. If it coincides with a bright moon night, walking on the Moon Island can also taste the artistic conception of "the wild sky and low trees, the clear river and the moon are close to each other".

Secondly, the way of viewing the performance is different. The immersive viewing form of traveling around the island is relatively independent and interconnected. The entire performance area walks clockwise along the Moon Island for a cycle, with a larger performance range and better viewing effects, giving tourists a new "walking and watching" real-life viewing experience. Moreover, the entire performance is also unique in terms of costumes, music, and stage design, exquisite and unique, with a lot of attractions. The performance consists of five performance areas: "River, Qing, Moon, Near and People". Each chapter retains its own characteristics in the historical background and also interprets its different connotations. Through clever combination of interpretation, it is a perfect reproduction for tourists. A complete real-life performance with beads distributed and interconnected.

The performance is divided into five parts: Jiang·The Beginning of the Deer Chasing, Qing·Leshan·Leshan, Moon·The Road to Tang Poetry, Near·Return in the Wind, and Man·Past and Present Life. Here, we can see the ancient "Jiande people" racing in the Qingjiang Sea of Flowers, telling the past and past with the Xin 'an River; the transcendent Yan Ziling fishing alone in the mountains and rivers in the four seasons, expressing the voice of a hermit who enjoys the water in Leshan; The elegant Li Bai and Meng Haoran splashed ink and danced to invite the moon to create a gorgeous chapter of "The Road of Tang Poetry in Western Zhejiang"; Chen Youliang, who has not yet fulfilled his ambition in pursuing the world, looked up to the sky and roared endlessly for nostalgia; The nine fishermen surnamed Xin 'an River who live close to the water have become a beautiful scenery through ancient and modern times in a difficult dream of romantic love.

food

Because of the time and the tight schedule, I didn't hesitate too much when choosing where to eat. I wanted to make reasonable use of my time and live up to the delicious food. Therefore, the first meal was finally served. The important meal during this trip was the restaurant of Radisson Xin 'an Hotel where I stayed.

There are too many choices for food. Some people choose local reputation, some choose mood, some choose good quality and low price, etc. This time in Jiande, all the choices are brought together at the Radisson Xin 'an Hotel. Many times when I travel, I am unwilling to go to a hotel to eat. First of all, the price is not low, and secondly, the taste is often the same. However, Radisson Xin 'an Hotel has broken my established impression of the hotel. The food here is not only in line with the public's appetite, but also the price is very friendly to the people. I made the right choice this time!
