Generally speaking, Wang Wei's poems are mainly pastoral, characterized by lofty artistic conception, lightness and tranquility. For example, the poem "Chai Lu" depicts the quiet scenery of empty mountains and deep forests near Chai Lu in the evening, and shows the author's sudden enlightenment in the process of deep meditation. Although there is Zen in the poem, it does not resort to discussion and reasoning, and is completely permeated in the vivid description of natural scenery.

Wang Wei, who is proficient in poetry, calligraphy, sound and painting, is famous for his Kaiyuan and Tianbao poems, especially his five-character poems, which praise the landscape and countryside. Together with Meng Haoran, he was called "Wang Meng" and was called "Shi Fo" because of his devout belief in Buddhism. Calligraphy and painting are particularly wonderful, and later generations promoted it to the ancestor of Nanzong landscape painting. He is the author of Wang Youcheng Collection and The Secret of Painting, with about 400 poems.

Commemoration of future generations

According to Lantian County Records, Wang Wei's Tomb is located 60 meters east of Baijiaping Village in Wangchuan Township, in front of which lies the bank of Wangchuan River at the foot of Feiyun Mountain. The original cemetery is about 13.3 mu. Now it is pressed under Xiangyang Company 14 factory building, and the Tang tombstone is used as stone by Xiangyang Company 14 factory building and pressed in the water tunnel.

There are two relics in front of the tomb: Du You Cheng Zhaosheng and Shaanxi Governor Bi Yuan. Wang Wei's mother was also buried here. When the Ministry of Communications built the Wang Chuan Highway in six places, Wang Wei's mother's tomb tower was razed to the ground.
