In the morning of April 20, "let's go!" under the call of two beautiful guides, our Changjian foundry team officially launched a three-day annual tour. Puting down the daily tedious and busy work, and embarking on the light journey, the partners were full of joy and expectation. You can see them talking in whispers, or sharing delicious food. The whole bus is ful of happy mood. Sometimes a humorous person's one or two punchline words arouse a big laugh in the bus.
The destination of this tour is Wuxi city, southeast of China, which has profound cultural background. Considering that the distance is relatively short and the three-days time is very abundant, the tourist attractions arranged by the travel agency were more than that in previous years. We will visit Huishan moutain ancient town in the "world cultural heritage reserve list", Nianhua bay with Buddha, Wuxi Lingshan Giant Buddha named as "five Buddhas" and Leshan Giant Buddha in Sichuan, Yuantouzhu, the most beautiful corner of Taihu Lake, Three Kingdoms city and Shuihu city known as "Oriental Hollywood". The first stop is Huishan mountain ancient town with profound cultural heritage. Huishan mountain ancient town is located in the west of Wuxi City. The mountain height is only 8 meters. As Chinse sayinig, mountain is not high, but there are immortals, there are spirits. Huishan ancient town is famous for its prehistoric culture of Wuxi and shidun site of Xishan ancestors over 4000 years ago. Huishan ancient town has a beautiful natural environment. I am amazed by the number and density of its ancient temples. At the same time, "Huishan clay figurine", one of the three specialties of Wuxi.In 2006, Huishan clay figurines were selected into the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage list. The special material of Huishan clay figurine is the black mud at the foot of Huishan mountain. The mud is fine and soft, rubbed without lines, curved and continuous, dry without cracks, and has excellent plasticity. It's said that Huishan clay figurine has a history of 1000 years. Many shapes are drawn from opera figures in Kunqu Opera and other folk arts, so it inherits the culture and characteristics of character freedom, so it's very popular and widely spread. Huishan clay figurines can be divided into two categories: one is the clay figurines that Mr. Guo Moruo praised as "people have no past and present, and they come out of hand in a moment", which are excellent clay figurines with high artistic appreciation and collection value; the other is the clay figurines produced in batches with molds, which are loved by most common people fans. For example, I love the chubby, smiling "big Ah Fu".
After visiting Huishan ancient town, we came to the second stop, Nianhua Bay. Buddha said, "one flower, one world, one leaf, one Bodhi". Through the wooden archway of "one flower, one world", we entered Nianhua Bay, a town with beautiful ecological environment. On the one hand, the name of Nianhua Bay comes from the story of Buddha picking flowers and JIAYE smiling. On the other hand, it also comes from the fact that the land where Nianhua Bay is located looks like a five leaf lotus. Nianhua Bay is known as "pure space, pure land and pure water". Compared with Huishan ancient town with a long history, Nianhua Bay is more like a newborn child, which was built and opened in 2015. Nianhua Bay is divided into several functional areas, including Fantian flower sea, wetland, deer roar Valley. From the design of the whole town to the design of each scenic spot, all of them reveal elegance and tranquility. You can have the Tea tasting, Scripture copying, leisurely walking, daze And a leisurely holiday.
It seems to be a new and ancient town of Huizhou with different historical background, but in my eyes, it shows admiration and inheritance of ancient Chinese architecture and culture everywhere.
Adjacent to Nianhua Bay is Lingshan Buddha. There are more than one giant Buddha in China, but only five are most famous. They are distributed in different directions in China, forming a pattern of five Buddha faces, namely, Wuxi Lingshan Giant Buddha in the East, Hong Kong Tiantan Giant Buddha in the south, Sichuan Leshan Giant Buddha in the west, Shanxi Yungang giant Buddha in the north, and Luoyang Longmen Giant Buddha. Lingshan Buddha's eyes are slightly closed, and his eyes are wide open to all living beings. The right hand "giving fearless seal" represents eliminating pain, and the left hand "and willing seal" represents giving happiness, all of which are blessings. Usually we talk about "holding the thigh" in order to get some shelter, but in front of Lingshan Buddha, it is very difficult to "hold the thigh". Because Lingshan Buddha is so high, even if you take the elevator to the Buddha, you can only touch the Buddha's feet in front of the Buddha's feet, commonly known as "holding Buddha's feet", because our height can only reach the toes of the Buddha. It's hard to imagine the magnificence and greatness of Lingshan Buddha without actually seeing it.
After seeing the beautiful scenery of the ancient town and the beautiful water and Zen Buddhism, we visited Yuantouzhu again, and finally ended up in the "Three Kingdoms city" and "Shuihu city". In the cities of the Three Kingdoms, there are many famous stories, such as "Liu Bei beckoning relatives", "burning red cliff", "writing poems in a horizontal style", "borrowing arrows from a boat", "borrowing east wind", "fighting against scholars with words", etc. Fortunately, in the Three Kingdoms, we saw a wonderful performance of "three British battles against Lubu". The real people, real horses, real knives, real guns, the scene was magnificent and shocking. Let's have a glimpse of the magnificent history. It was a time of great heroes, a brilliant Cao Cao, a dedicated Zhugeliang, a dashing Zhou Yu, an indomitable Liu Bei, a man of insight into human nature and people's mind Jia Yu, a man of Cao Ying's mind in Han Xu Shu The stories around them are sung through the ages.
The three-day trip to Wuxi, whether for physical strength or mood, was undoubtedly a perfect exercise and polished. In this trip, we can talk about the past and the present together in a cherished and relaxed atmosphere, were appreciated the cultural heritage left by the ancients, let the beautiful and pleasant landscape left in our mind. In the fast-paced modern life, let keep the inner purity, face the surrounding things with the original heart, keep a Zen Mind, do not dispute for a while, be kind to others, believe that no matter work or life, everything is beautiful. Thank you for the trip to Wuxi organized by the company, and look forward to a better team trip next year, and we believe that we can have more growth and harvest.
