As the saying goes: "Wu Chuming building is now four, water, sky and moonare double in ancient times." The four famous towers are yellow crane tower,Yuejiang tower, Yueyang Tower and Tengwang Pavilion. This summer vacation, I hadthe honor to visit Yuejiang building, one of the four famous buildings.
According to historical records, Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty settledthe mountains and settled the capital of Jinling, and wrote the famous story ofYuejiang tower, but later there was no building. Now the Yuejiang tower is builtby Nanjing municipal government in recent years. Yuejiang tower is located onthe top of the lion mountain. When you climb up the stairs, you will come to thefoot of Yuejiang tower. This is an ancient wooden pavilion standingmajestically. Red pillars, grey wall tiles, vermilion doors, glass cornices, onelayer after another, overlapping, very spectacular.
Walking into the hall on the ground floor, it is spacious and bright. Rightbelow the hall, a golden carved dragon chair is placed in the center, and fourexquisite tripods are placed in front of the chair. The golden bottom isengraved with two green dragons entwined together, which is the symbol ofancient emperors' power. Just above the hall is the full text of Yuejiang towerwritten by Zhu Yuanzhang, a golden book, which occupies the north wall and ismagnificent. After a long time, the sunlight fell on the red carpet through thewindow lattice, as if returning to the distant ancient times in a trance.
Walking up the wooden building to the second floor, I was immediatelyimpressed by its exquisite architectural skills. All kinds of peculiar patternsare carved on the wooden fence. There are intertwined dragons, powerful lions,and bizarre unicorns. They are so delicate that their noses, eyes, and beardsare clearly engraved. The beams were beautifully painted. There are West Lakescenery, cemetery scenery, Yuanmingyuan Ruins, the great wall and so on. Thereare many patterns and bright colors.
Along the stairs came to the top, look around, see the surging riverrolling eastward. River, cruise ships, passenger ships shuttle like to come andgo, sometimes issued a distant flute sound. The Yangtze River Bridge stretchesacross the river. Tall bridgeheads stand at the north and south ends of thebridge. Crisscross overpasses, roaring trains and high-rise buildings give you apanoramic view. This is the reason why Yuejiang tower is named. When a gust ofwind blows, the copper bell as big as the bowl mouth on the cornice makes aclear "Ding Ding" sound, which is really pleasing to the eye.
This situation, this scene, just as the ancient poem said: "want to poorthousands of miles, more on a higher level."
Yuejiang tower in Nanjing, Yellow Crane Tower in Wuhan, Yueyang Tower inYueyang and Tengwang Pavilion in Nanchang are known as the four famous buildingsin Jiangnan. It is located in the northwest of Nanjing City, adjacent to theYangtze River. The building is 52 meters high and has seven floors. It is one ofthe four famous buildings in the south of the Yangtze River, with blue tiles,Zhuying, cornice, zhufengfei and Tongye. After Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor, heonce again visited Lulong mountain in 1374. He wanted to build a toweringPavilion on the mountain, so he personally wrote Yuejiang Lou Ji, which ismagnificent and full of maneuvers. Because of Lulong mountain's "abrupt peak,lingyanxia and invading Han Dynasty's exterior, short-sighted from a distance,the real lion dragon (the alias of lion)," he changed its name to lion Zishan.In the spring of that year, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered his officials to write morethan 100 pieces of Yuejiang Lou Ji, among which Song Lian, a great scholar,wrote the most excellent one, and was recorded in Guwen Guanzhi, which washanded down to the world together with Zhu Yuanzhang's Yuejiang Lou Ji. ZhuYuanzhang built "Pingdi" for Yuejiang building, but it was not built for variousreasons.
"One river runs thousands of miles to the sea, two records of hulou sixhundred years.". This wonderful couplet is a true portrayal of the six hundredyears of vicissitudes of Yuejiang building in Nanjing. When you climb theYuejiang tower and look far away, you can see the vast river rolling eastward.It's like a panoramic view of the six hundred years of rain and smoke sinceZheng He's voyages to the West.

The original intention of building Yuejiang tower began more than 600 yearsago by Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Before he becameemperor, Zhu Yuanzhang used red and yellow banners as his name on the lionmountain to command tens of thousands of ambushes and defeat the powerful enemyChen Youliang's 400000 strong attack, which laid the foundation for theestablishment of the Ming Dynasty. Fourteen years later, in 1374, that is, inthe spring of the seventh year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang built a pavilion inShizishan and named it Yuejianglou. Taking Yuejianglou as the title, he orderedthe officials in the dynasty to write a story of Yuejianglou. There are threearticles that have been handed down to the present: Yuejianglou Ji written bySong Lian, a famous writer and academician in the late Yuan Dynasty and earlyMing Dynasty, and Yuejianglou Ji and youyuejianglou Ji written by Zhu Yuanzhanghimself. Zhu Yuanzhang also used prisoners in prison to build a "flat stone" forbuilding on the top of the lion rock, which is the foundation.
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly decided to stop the construction of Yuejiangbuilding after he wrote the story of the building and laid the foundation, andexplained the reasons for stopping the construction in his story of the buildingagain: first, God entrusted him with a dream to warn him not to rush to buildthe Yuejiang building; second, after careful consideration, he felt that theconstruction of Yuejiang building should be delayed. In fact, another reason isto concentrate money and manpower to build the city walls of Nanjing andFengyang, the capital of China. Later, even the city walls of Fengyang, thecapital of China, were stopped because of the huge cost.
When the building was completed in 20__, it is worth mentioning that due tothe lack of many ancient materials and the differences in modern buildingspecifications and techniques, the newly-built Yuejiang building does not usethe traditional wood structure, but uses the modern reinforced concretestructure instead, which makes the famous building lack a trace of ancientcharm.
