Where is the earliest and most eye-catching landscape culture in Guilin? Duxiufeng in the city.
There are 136 cliff carvings in Duxiufeng, all of which are treasures.
For the time being, let's just talk about the origin of Guilin's widely circulated advertisement "Guilin's landscape is the best in the world".
Who in China doesn't know the saying that "Guilin's landscape is the best in the world"? This immortal famous sentence can be called a masterpiece through the ages: it does not make a specific description, but it contains everyone's imagination.
With this famous sentence, Guilin in the eyes of tourists is Lin Daiyu in the eyes of Jia Baoyu and Hamlet in the eyes of British nobles.
But who owns the copyright of this famous saying? From the late Qing Dynasty to the 198s, there has been a long-standing debate in academic circles.
It used to be a popular saying that in the sixth year of Baoyou in the Southern Song Dynasty (AD 1258), Li Zengbo wrote the sentence "Guilin's mountains and rivers are the best in the world" in "Rebuilding Xiangxi Tower"; Jin Wuxiang, the governor of Guangxi, changed the "mountains and rivers" written by Li Zengbo into "mountains and rivers" in "Poems on the Lijiang River" in 1882, and wrote the poem "Guilin's mountains and rivers are the best in the world".
At that time, many people thought that this was probably its earliest origin.
Guo Moruo, a master historian, can't find the right answer to the questions of Guilin scholars.
Later, a legendary thing happened, which denied this statement and ended the endless debate for a hundred years.
One day in 1983, Yang Yinsheng and Hu Xiangwu, the rubbingmasters of Guilin Cultural Relics Team, rubbinged inscriptions in Duxiufeng Reading Rock, and found that a stone carving on the cliff had formed a stalactite covering layer with a thickness of about 1 cm due to long-term seepage, only a little corner was faintly exposed.
what is the real work under the cover? The two masters carefully removed the covering layer with tools, trying to see what was written in it. They shoveled and shoveled, and suddenly "ah" as happily as they saw the golden bodhisattva.
guess what?
They found the poem "Guilin's landscape is the best in the world"!
this discovery is not trivial.
When they gently removed all the covering layers, two seven-character poems appeared in front of them.
The second is:
Guilin's landscape is the best in the world.
morale is not inspiring, and the literary field is like a battlefield.
The tiger and leopard in the nine passes watch the enemy, while Wan Li and Peng talk in the drama.
the old eyes are rubbing and refreshing, and the kings are the south of the fight.
It is clearly recorded in the preface of the poem that this poem was written on September 16th (the lunar calendar) in the first year of Jiatai in the Southern Song Dynasty (AD 121), at the end of the provincial examination. At that time, Wang Zhenggong, the magistrate of jing jiang (similar to the secretary of the Provincial Political and Legal Committee and the mayor of the capital), gave a special Luming Banquet for 11 students in Guilin after having obtained the provincial examination (one was to celebrate and encourage them, and the other was to go to Beijing for a farewell dinner).
after drinking this bowl of wine, the style of writing is vigorous.
)。
When people are happy, their spirits are good. Wang Daren drank two more glasses, and his inspiration came. During the dinner, he improvised two verses of seven laws.
After reading the whole poem, we know that Wang Zhenggong's original intention in writing poems at this time is not to praise Guilin's landscape deliberately, but to encourage Guilin students to study hard, strive to be the pillar of the country, and be the best talent in the world.
The sentence "Guilin's landscape is the best in the world" naturally flows out of the glass, which is apt and catchy.
Two poems were deeply admired by the attendees at the banquet, and were carved by Zhang Ciliang in Duxiufeng's reading rock mouth.
This stone carving has undoubtedly become the treasure of Du Xiufeng.
In order to prevent the occurrence of famous sentences covered by sediments caused by rain erosion again, cornices have been built above the stone carvings.
There is no visitor to Duxiufeng who is not interested in this stone carving.
This is the origin of "Guilin's landscape is the best in the world".
