Every city has its own personality and temperament, which are derived from history and culture. Scenery, historic sites, and even the remaining place names are all gentle and elegant for thousands of years, and the streets and alleys have the deepest charm. /kloc-I went to Nanjing 0 0 years ago, perhaps because I was young at that time. My understanding of this city is only superficial, except that she has been to Beijing for ten times. She is born with the royal spirit and is known as the "ancient capital of the Six Dynasties". Her thoughts did not plunge into the long river of history and read all her prosperity and beautiful vicissitudes.
Nanjing is a famous historical city. The reason why successive dynasties respected this place and built its capital here is naturally that they took a fancy to the landscape situation and outstanding people here. Mountains and rivers become forests, which set each other off and become interesting, and the scenery is magnificent. Zhuge Liang once praised: "The Dragon Pan in Zhongshan, surrounded by Shi Hu, is really the residence of emperors." She witnessed countless ambitious plans and dynasty changes, which endowed her with tenacity, peace and self-sufficiency, as well as a pet and a shame. Now, you can visit the cow's head in spring, enjoy the "Zhongfu Qingyun" in summer, climb the "Qixia Scenic Area" in autumn and watch the "Shicheng Ji Snow" in winter. Walking in the ancient city of Jinling 2500 years ago, you will accidentally bump into the living in history. However, infected by the scene, I can't bear the footsteps, but my heart is far away, and I face the world calmly. The rouge gold powder of Qinhuai River, the dynasty domineering of Zijin Mountain, the incomplete stone wall of Shicheng, the fragrant rain of Jiming Temple, the celebrity traces of Wuyi Lane, the bustling Xuanwu Lake, the Zhu Ying of Biwa Lake in Yuejianglou, the incense candles of Qixia Mountain and the bright euphemism of Mochou Lake.
Nanjing is a country of poetry. "A thousand miles of dreams/dreams/dreams/dreams/dreams/dreams/dreams/dreams/dreams/birds/birds, the flag of Shuizhai Mountain is windy. Four hundred and eighty halls in the southern dynasties, how many towers are misty and rainy. " The scenery and traces of the old days described in Du Mu's Poems of Jiangnan Spring seem to have reappeared. It's also interesting if poetry travels in Jinling. Zhu Yuanzhang's beautiful artistic conception of "Biwa Zhu Ying is idle in the daytime, the eaves and teeth are foggy, the Julian wind is flying and the leaves are blooming" naturally makes people appreciate the grandeur of Yuejiang Tower. "The heart of the wave is like a mirror, leaving a bright moon, and the rhyme is like the afternoon wind", which left a footprint of Qianlong in Liang Qing Temple. Liu Yuxi's Suzaku Bridge is overgrown with weeds, and the sunset at the corner of Wuyi Lane is oblique. In the past, Wang thanked Yan, flew into the homes of ordinary people, and told a story about belittling celebrities in Wuyi Lane. Tu Mu's "Smoke Cage" is cold and sandy, and the night is near Qinhuai Restaurant. Strong women in business do not know how to serve their country and hate it, but still sing Houjiang Flower. "tells the story of Qinhuai people's sad tears. And "misty rain, rivers and mountains, dreams of the Six Dynasties, heroes and children playing chess" also made Zhu Yuanzhang praise Xu Da, the general of love, in the chess building of Mochou Lake. Li Yu, queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, wrote a well-known song "How much can you worry about?" Just like the eternal swan song of a river flowing eastward, Jinling's once lonely sigh was expressed to the extreme.
Nanjing is a cultural city. What impressed me most was the numerous bookstores and reading bars. Every time I go to the bookstore, I am shocked. Men and women, old and young, were crowded with people. This bookishness also affects everyone who comes to Nanjing. Jinling has been full of talented people since ancient times, and there are countless literati and famous painters and painters in the past dynasties, which has also created the literary spirit and leisure spirit in Nanjing people's bones. Sun Quan, once praised by Cao Cao as "having children like Sun Zhongmou", was outstanding in martial arts and literary talent. Wang Dao and Xie An in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and Prince Li Yu, a poet in the Southern Tang Dynasty, were all born in the lane. Cao Xueqin, a great writer who wrote A Dream of Red Mansions "every word is like blood, and ten years' hard work is extraordinary", and Zhang Henshui, a traditional scholar who wrote A Family of Qinhuai, as well as modern writers Ye Lingfeng, Bai Xianyong, Tang Ye, etc., and talented people all wrote well and went to Nanjing.
Nanjing is a city with flavor. Nanjing men are broad-minded, coarse and fine, masculine and temperate, and have heroic manners. A writer in Nanjing once said, "Men in Nanjing are neither big men nor small men. He is a big shot. " Nanjing men also like the title of "robbery", because the comfortable pace of life in the city also makes them behave appropriately, content with the status quo, tepid and unpretentious. I don't care about food and clothing. I can go shopping with women. I got the kitchen, according to the evaluation of Nanjing women: Nanjing men deserve to be entrusted for life. Women in Nanjing are gentle, reserved and warm-hearted. Their personalities are euphemistic, delicate and straightforward. Without the soft words of women in Shanghai and Hangzhou, things are orderly and leisurely. According to Nanjing dialect, they are called "quite charming and frank".
To understand a city, the most important thing is to understand its folk customs and business. Guanyin pocket shaped like a cross hanger for fishing, the old man's nagging cry at night, the well-known two knives at the south gate, awkward greetings at the wedding, and the "old Nanjing moon cake" in the Mid-Autumn Festival. When you talk about your old job, you will naturally think of the "chef" and "tea merchant" who used to specialize in catering, the "dyeing house" and the wine market where you lived together. These folk customs and businesses in people's memory always remind people that the history left behind is the most intimate past in your bones.
The most unforgettable taste of this city is the well-known Qinhuai snacks, the famous "Eight Unique Skills of Qinhuai", duck blood vermicelli soup, fried lobster, fried rice cake, steamed stuffed bun, dried silk, bean jelly slices, sweet-scented osmanthus wine-brewed Yuanxiao, fried quail, spiced eggs, fried stinky dry, and prosperous, which make local people relish and make foreigners stunned. When you see women in Nanjing gathering in the street and putting their hands on prosperous eggs showing a feather and a velvet chicken, you will be deeply impressed by their selfless image.
The shadow of the city, like smoke, floats in people's memory. When it is heavy and light, it feels the essence and vitality of street life. When you leave this city unforgettable, don't forget to take some local specialties home, such as sweet-scented osmanthus salted duck, dried salted duck, rain flower stones and artistic brocade, paper-cutting and folding fans. Maybe when you taste these delicious foods in a foreign land, you will feel her pulse and breath again.
Nanjing, a city full of historical accumulation and life interest, deserves our love.
