A brief summary of Baidu information about Qingyang:
Qingyang is one of the birthplaces of early farming civilization of the Chinese nation. There were people here 200,000 years ago, and there was early farming more than 7,000 years ago. More than 4000 years ago, Zhou's ancestors began farming civilization. This is the birthplace of China's traditional Chinese medicine culture, the birthplace of Qi Baishi, the originator of traditional Chinese medicine, and the world-famous Huangdi Neijing made achievements here.
~ geology and geomorphology
The largest Qingyang Lake basin in northwest China was deposited in Mesozoic, involving Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia and Mongolia. The Quaternary land continued to rise, and the Pleistocene gale swept through the loess, covering the loess plateau with a thickness of more than 100 meters. In Holocene, the Loess Plateau was eroded and cut by rivers and floods, forming the existing topography of plateaus, gullies, ridges, valleys, plains, mountains and slopes. It is divided into central and southern loess plateau gully region, northern loess hilly and gully region and eastern loess hilly region.
~ topography
Qingyang City is low in the south and high in the north, with an altitude of 885 meters to 2089 meters. There are mountains, rivers, plateaus, ditches, ends of the earth and cross beams. The plateau is magnificent and unique. Dayuan 12 covers an area of 65,438+10,000 mu, covering an area of 3.82 million mu. Dong Zhiyuan is a vast plain with an area of more than 700 square kilometers, spanning four counties and districts in Qingyang City. It is the largest loess plain with the thickest soil layer and the most complete preservation in the world, and it can be called "the first loess plain in the world".
Brief impression:
The loess is deep and the history is thicker; Gullies criss-cross, vaguely ancient relics.
Understanding Qingyang originates from Vipassana meditation.
Because I was eager to attend a meditation class, I learned that there was a Vipassana Center in Qingyang and the course arrangement was relatively short, so I decided to sign up.
Then there was a trip to Qingyang. I made up classes before I left and learned where I was going. I was surprised to find that this is a place with such a thick history, even far exceeding the deep loess layer-Longdong granary and Huang Qi's hometown.
The moment I got off the long-distance bus, I carefully observed everything around me, as if there was not much difference. Just like seeing those large fields along the way, I thought it was no different from the plains in my hometown, except for the gullies that occasionally flashed out. The eye-catching signs of various special diets along the way also remind passers-by that this is the junction of Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia provinces.
This is Huang Qi Avenue,
At noon, there are not many people and cars on the road, which is particularly empty.
Because the route was unfamiliar, the bus sat down at an intersection. I couldn't find a transfer bus, so I ate at a small shop at the intersection. By the way, I asked to get off, and the boss said it wasn't the Far East. So I walked on the yellow land of 12 1. This walk, even walked more than four or five kilometers, and saw a scene that was easy to see.
This photo was taken by the roadside. Does anyone know what it is?
I'll sell it for a while, hehe.
Because of these plants, bamboo.
At that time, I felt very strange that there was a big pit on the ground.
Take a closer look and be surprised! It turned out to be a semi-underground courtyard, a cave courtyard.
According to the historical grand view of Qingyang, China, Qingyang is located in the middle of the Loess Plateau, which is the heart of the "Oriental rooster", known as bοon in ancient times and Longdong in common. The long history and tradition have accumulated profound cultural connotations, and its unique traditional dwellings-caves can be called the miracle of loess architecture in China and the "living fossil" of human living history.
Engineering male, as an architectural student, isn't he excited to see such a distinctive architectural form? Come closer, come closer, come closer, observe.
According to the information, in? On the 635,000-square-kilometer Loess Plateau, traditional houses are still loved by local people, and about 40 million people live in such caves. This unique building has attracted the interest of more and more domestic and foreign architectural experts and has become one of the main entry points for exploring the settlement of ancient ancestors from caves.
According to research, as early as 6000 years ago, the caves in Xi 'an banpo village were in their cave and semi-cave periods. Cave dwelling is the product of the development of underground space by our ancestors. According to expert research, compared with modern architecture, living in caves for a long time is beneficial to longevity and health.
There are four reasons: first, the temperature difference in the cave is kept at? 10-22 ? What is the relative humidity between degrees? 30-75%, which is the most suitable temperature and humidity for human life. Secondly, the external climate and radioactive substances in the atmosphere measured in caves have the least influence on human body, so the prevalence of asthma, bronchitis, rheumatism, rheumatoid diseases and skin diseases is obviously reduced. Third, people who live in caves need to burn a fire every once in a while in summer to warm the kiln and heat the kang. People with old cold legs and lumbar diseases have the lowest prevalence rate, almost none. Fourth, living in a cave is similar to a villa, and the surrounding environment and microclimate create an atmosphere that blends with openness. Depression and depression building syndrome basically do not exist.
Unfortunately, such a good housing model, inspired by modern civilization, has become increasingly marginalized, replaced by this kind of brick houses that have sprung up. Is this progress or progress?
Well, consider it an improvement; After all, the pace of time is forward.
My footsteps are also advancing, and the goal is a small scenic spot. When I look at these words, I feel a kind of sage like type. I imagine there must be a mountain there, but as far as I can see, is it Ma Pingchuan? Except for the occasional canyon.
I walked a long way, crossed two ravines, and had a little effort to find a place. It took a lot of effort to find a place (thanks again to Mr. Li from Shenzhen and the friends who sent him there. Thank you for giving me a lift.
Right here, at the mouth of the canyon.
Give me another recent photo-
The pheasant couple who have been with us for eleven days live somewhere across the street.
They can often be seen walking alone or side by side (not hand in hand).
However, on one occasion, I was honored to appreciate the appearance of their husband and wife in Qi Fei. Although it happened in a hurry and suddenly, they must have been so frightened that they were so stingy that they only crowed three or two cocks at ordinary times. What is particularly surprising is that the rooster took off at the same time, and his wife took off at the same time more than ten meters away. Midway through the flight, they actually met and flew over the trench together, which made me dumbfounded. What a harmonious picture. It's a pity that the old lady should strictly observe the precepts when she meditates, and she doesn't have a mobile phone, otherwise she will really capture a rare picture.
Make a fool of yourself and post a few words you made up at that time to paint oil.
Make everyone laugh.
Okay, that's enough. I've been nagging. Not much to write, simply review the main content of this article and borrow my own limerick:
The loess in Yuan Shang is very thick.
Qi Huang's legacy is longer.
The ancient heritage is now safe,
Long Ye rises in the sky. ......
Cave dwelling, a livable mode, has now drifted away from people.
Huang Qi's hometown, Longdong granary, is on the small side of Kongtong, listening to Zen meditation. ......
Friendship comes with two oil painting sketches:
(3) The meditation hall listens to the rain
< 1 >
Tao is how sunny the garden is.
A continuous clear starry sky
Once heaven was impermanent,
There is no wind in the shower.
< 2 >
The loess in Yuan Shang is very thick.
Huang Qi has a longer legacy.
The ancient heritage is now safe,
The wilderness is boundless.
Meditation,
The abnormal sound protrudes far away.
Just as the Dragon King raised his account,
Busy, bad, bad, bad.
(-On the second day after the heavy rain, sit quietly and cross the border in the heavy rain, such as hordes galloping from far and near, and then leave in a hurry after the ravages, as urgent as the law. )
