The song "Baqiao Willow" was written by Chen Xiaoqi based on Baqiao Willow (an ancient bridge in the east of Xi 'an) to celebrate the present.
Baqiao, located at12km outside Xi 'an, is a very famous bridge in ancient times. Every spring, the catkins beside the stone bridge fly with the snow, and the smoke cages are green and have a unique charm. At this time, the scene of lovers folding willows to bid farewell has always been told by poets and poets of all ages.
The story behind Baqiao Liuge
In the Tang Dynasty, Baling Bridge in Xi 'an was the only place for people to leave Chang 'an when they went to all parts of the country. Baling Bridge was surrounded by willows and became a famous place for the ancients to fold willows to bid farewell. Later generations took "Baqiao Folding Willow" as the source of farewell allusions.
Baqiao Willow is a very nice song in the 1980s. Chen Xiaoqi, a lyricist, and Wu Songjin, a songwriter, are both famous contemporary heavyweight writers.
