The place where I went to college, in the Han Dynasty, was called Shanglinyuan, which was a royal garden. It faces Zhong Nanshan, the main peak of the Qinling Mountains, where there are hermits and white snow. A poet who has never been old went there to find a shortcut. Two miles to the west, there is a small temple called Guanyin Ancient Temple. There is a millennium ginkgo tree in the temple, which was planted by Li Shimin himself.
Five miles further west, there is a town called Caotang, and there is a Caotang Temple in the town. Kumarajiva and other veteran comrades once translated Buddhist scriptures in temples. In the east of it, a young boy named Cui Hu did not wait for the girl he once admired, and sadly wrote, "Peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring breeze, although people don't know where they went." This is an ordinary place in Xi 'an Chang 'an District.
