The feelings of mountains and rivers are a special cultural mentality naturally formed by our ancestors in the long-term farming society.

The feelings of mountains and rivers are expressed in the relationship with natural mountains and rivers. It is the "heart of forest and spring" that makes people feel full of feelings when climbing mountains and watching the sea. Just like Wang Xizhi, "Wandering famous mountains, looking at the sea, and sighing, 'I should die with joy'"; like Xin Qiji, "I see how charming the green mountains are, but I don't expect the green mountains to see me like this," and so on.

Landscape feelings are expressed in daily life, which is interesting and artistic. "Shishuo Xinyu" records: "Wang Ziyou once asked someone to live in an empty house temporarily, so he ordered bamboo to be planted. Some people asked: 'Why bother to live temporarily?' Wang Xiaoyong chanted for a long time, pointed at the bamboo and said: 'How can I live without this king for a day? ! '", Zheng Banqiao "Ten Huts, one patio, several poles of bamboo, and several feet of stalagmites", harvesting spiritual wealth in poverty: "There are sounds in the wind and rain, shadows in the sun and the moon, and there is love in the wine in the poem. "In leisure and boredom, I have company." Outside the living room, there are also feelings everywhere, walking in the snow to look for plum blossoms, wearing frost to visit chrysanthemums; looking at the autumn clouds, the gods are flying, facing the autumn wind, thinking about the vastness, who is sitting with me, the bright moon, the breeze, me...

< p>Landscape sentiments are expressed in the attitude towards life and society, which is the ritual and joyful mood of "not being happy with things and not being sad with yourself". That is to say, like Fan Zhongyan, "Be worried about the worries of the world first, and be happy after the joys of the world"; like Du Fu, "There are tens of millions of vast buildings, and the great shelter of the world will make all the poor people happy."

Landscape sentiments, for thousands of years, have not only enabled many social individuals to have a particularly rich life, but also enabled China to possess a particularly beautiful cultural spirit that is the envy of the world.

Landscape sentiments, this kind of cultural spirit, in modern society with the rapid development of science and technology, although airplanes and high-speed trains shorten the distance between people and nature, the rich landscapes and cultural landscapes and the profound historical and cultural accumulation create the Chinese style The cultural sentiments and aesthetic pursuits of landscapes are still tightly lingering in the hearts of the Chinese people.

Since ancient times, China has divided landscape aesthetics into three spiritual levels: "responding to the eyes, understanding the heart, and smoothing the mind". Yingmu refers to the formal beauty of the landscape's images, colors, sounds, etc., which brings pleasure to the senses. Understanding means that the appreciator and the landscape blend into each other and become intimate with each other. Changing the spirit is the highest state of Chinese landscape aesthetics, that is, wandering around things, forgetting things and myself, and seeking integration and transcendence with the life of the universe on the basis of life. This is also the core of Chinese traditional culture "the unity of nature and man" "!

This kind of aesthetic style that borrows scenery to express feelings and seeks an oasis of the soul and a clear spring of spirit is exactly the Chinese landscape sentiment.
