1. Introduction to Taoranting attractions
The pavilion, facing the wind on all sides, is light and exquisite. It is a garden architectural sketch for people to rest, gaze and appreciate. Many famous mountains, rivers and gardens are inseparable from the decoration of pavilions, so they are known as the “eyes of the garden”. “Infinite scenery of mountains and rivers are gathered in one pavilion.” An empty pavilion is the finishing touch of a humanistic realm between heaven and earth. The pavilions of the past dynasties contain many pleasures and romantic charms, which go hand in hand with literature. Look at the pavilion and admire the pavilion. The pavilion is an important cultural achievement of Chinese garden art. —-Excerpted from “Preface” to Tao Ranting’s Exhibition
I searched online for how many pavilions there are in Taoranting? Some netizens said there were 36, but I counted only a dozen pavilions that I took photos of. The difference was too far, so I went there again, walked every nook and cranny there, and wrote down all the pavilions I saw. Here we are, a total of 25 pavilions. If you haven’t found the rest, you have to find them by yourself, haha!
Taoranting Park is an urban garden planned, designed and built around Taoranting, a famous scenic spot in Yanjing in the south corner of Beijing. The total area of the park is 59 hectares, including 17 hectares of water surface. The park was built in 1952. It is the earliest modern garden built in the capital Beijing after the founding of the People’s Republic of China. The place is a scenic spot in Yanjing and is known as the “Capital Resort”. It has a long history and mottled historical sites. The famous Taoranting and Mercy Temple are located here. The beautiful garden scenery, rich cultural connotation and glorious revolutionary historical sites make it a tourist attraction. The Mercy Temple in the park was founded in the Yuan Dynasty, also known as Guanyin Temple. In the 34th year of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty (1695), Jiang Zao, a doctor from the Ministry of Industry, was ordered to supervise the black kiln factory. He built a small pavilion in the west of Mercy Temple and named it Bai Juyi The pavilion is named after the word “Taoran” in the poem “Waiting for the chrysanthemum and yellow wine to be ripe, I will be drunk and intoxicated with you.” The natural scenery here is beautiful, and it is known as “the place where Zhou Marquis borrowed flowers and the right army cultivated their crops”. It is also regarded as a must-visit place by literati from all over the country who come to Beijing. During the more than 200 years of the Qing Dynasty, this pavilion enjoyed a long-lasting reputation and became a favorite in the capital. The park contains historical relics from many dynasties since the Warring States Period and many ancient temples and temples. The pavilions I saw at Taoranting include:
1. Zhijin Pavilion; 2. Chenghuai Pavilion is Lianli Pavilion, built in 1977, and is an important scenic spot in the West Lake of the park. Does it mean “Jinting is pregnant”? Now you have to ask the pavilion builder for advice!
3. Sister Pavilion:
4. Wang Rui Pavilion:
5. Yixin Pavilion:
6. Wooden Tenon Pavilion:
7. Canglang Pavilion: There are couplets on the pillars of this pavilion: On the right: The priceless copy of the clear breeze and bright moon. On the left: There is love in the near water and distant mountains. Horizontal comment: Gaolang Canglang Pavilion is a Chinese Han classic built in the Northern Song Dynasty. The garden building was originally the private garden of the scholar Su Shunqin. It is located near Sanyuanfang in the south of Suzhou City. It covers an area of 1.08 hectares and is the oldest ancient garden among the existing gardens in Suzhou. This pavilion in Taoran Pavilion was built in 1985.
8. Yilan Pavilion: It is named after the line in Du Fu’s poem “When you stand at the top of the mountain, you can see all the small mountains at a glance”. It well embodies the artistic conception of climbing high and looking far away, with an unobstructed view. The upturned eaves of the Yilan Pavilion have more of the beauty of Jiangnan gardens and less of the heaviness of Northern gardens. As for which pavilion was copied or re-created, further research is needed to know.
9. Zuiweng Pavilion: Zuiweng Pavilion is located next to Langya Mountain in the southwest of Chuzhou City, Anhui Province. It ranks first among the four famous pavilions. It was built in the seventh year of Qingli in the Northern Song Dynasty (1047). It was named and written by Ouyang Xiu, one of the eight great masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties. “The Drunkard’s Pavilion” is famous for his article. “The mountains and rivers of Chu will become brighter with Ou Gong’s writings.” The well-known saying “A drunkard’s heart is not about wine, but about the mountains and rivers” is well known to every household. The pavilions, terraces and pavilions in the scenic area have different styles. There are gardens in the gardens and scenery in the scenery. They are known as the “Nine Scenes of the Drunken Old Man”; among them, Ouyang Xiu’s hand-planted plum blossoms are one of the four major plum blossoms in the country. Ouyang Xiu’s handwritten “The Drunken Old Man’s Pavilion” The stele can be called a rare treasure; the Drunkard Pavilion is known as “the best pavilion in the world”. This pavilion in Taoran Pavilion was built in 1985.
10. Duxing Pavilion: Located in front of Quzi Temple on the top of Yuji Mountain in Miluo City, Hunan Province. According to Qu Yuan’s “The Fisherman”, “When the whole world is turbid, I alone am clear; when everyone is drunk, I alone am awake”, so it is called “Duxing Pavilion”. The pavilion was first built in the Han Dynasty and moved here in the 21st year of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty (1756). In front of the pavilion, there is a plaque of “Duxing Pavilion” inscribed by Mao Dun, a veteran of modern literature, and Zhao Puchu, a famous calligrapher. In 1541 AD, Duxing Pavilion was rebuilt and a record was erected on the side of the pavilion. This pavilion in Taoran Pavilion was built in 1985.
11. Chengguang Pavilion: Built in 1953, it is located on the southwest slope of the island in the center of the lake.
12. Nanping Evening View Pavilion: Located at the southeast end of the park, I wonder if the name of the pavilion comes from “Nanping Evening Bell”?
13. Wuming Pavilion:
14. We stand together through thick and thin: A devastating flood occurred in Anhui Province in 1991, and it received nationwide support for disaster relief. In order to thank the people across the country for their selfless donations, the Anhui Provincial Government built this pavilion in Taoran Park in Beijing, modeled after the one in Huizhou, and named it the “Standing Together Pavilion”, which means that when one side is in trouble, all parties support the spirit of national unity.
15. Lake Center Pavilion: Located in the center of the West Lake, it is one of the “Four Famous Pavilions in China”. The Huxin Pavilion in the West Lake is the same as the Moon-Dipping Pavilion in Taoranting, but the pavilion in Taoranting is called Huxin Pavilion.
16. Moon-Dipping Pavilion (also called Yanshui Pavilion): The real Moon-Dipping Pavilion is located in Gantang Lake on the south bank of the Yangtze River in Jiujiang. It is said to be the former site of the Dianjiangtai of Zhou Yu, a famous general during the Three Kingdoms period. Bai Juyi, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, first built a pavilion in the lake. At that time, Bai Juyi was demoted to Jiangzhou. He named it “Moon-soaked Pavilion” based on his poem “Pipa Xing”, “The vast river is soaked in the moon when we leave”. The Moon-Dipping Pavilion in Taoran Pavilion was built in imitation in 1985.
17. Chuitai: Located at the west foot of Xiaojin Mountain in Slender West Lake Park, Yangzhou City, it is commonly known as Diaoyutai. It is said that Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty fished here during his southern tour. This pavilion is a classic work of Yangzhou gardens and a representative work of the art of “borrowing scenery” and “framing scenery” in Chinese gardens. This pavilion in Taoran Pavilion was built in 1985.
18. Baipot Pavilion: Baipot Pavilion is located in Sansu Park, Sichuan Province. It is a bridge pavilion built in memory of Su Dongpo, a writer in the Song Dynasty. When Su Shi (Dongpo) was the governor of Yingzhou (now Fuyang, Anhui), he wrote the poem “Pan Ying”: “My nature likes to be near the water, and it is strange to find Ying… The upper flow is straight and clear, and the lower flow is curved and ripples. . The painting boat looked down at the mirror, smiling and asking who was wearing the makeup? Suddenly, scales appeared, messing up my beard and eyebrows. They scattered into a hundred east slopes, and they were here again in an instant. The water is thin, and they play with me.” In Jiading of the Southern Song Dynasty (AD 1214), Wei Liaoweng, the governor of Meizhou, Sichuan, built Baipo Pavilion in the lake around Meizhou City based on Su Dongpo’s poems. After all the vicissitudes of life, the ancient lake and Baipo Pavilion no longer exist. In 1928 Baipo Pavilion was rebuilt on the Ruilian Pond in Sansu Temple, Meishan. This pavilion in Taoranting Park was built in 1989.
19. Orchid Pavilion: “In the ninth year of Yonghe, when I was in Guichou, at the beginning of late spring, I would gather at the Orchid Pavilion in Shanyin, Kuaiji, to have a wedding ceremony. All the virtuous people had arrived, and the young and old had gathered together. There were high mountains, luxuriant forests and bamboos here, and there were also The clear currents are turbulent and reflected in the left and right directions, making them look like flowing water…” If you read Wang Xizhi’s “Preface to the Lanting Collection”, you will know the location of this pavilion (Shaoxing, Zhejiang). This pavilion in Taoran Pavilion was built in 1985.
20. Erquan Pavilion: Located in Huishan, Wuxi, it is named after it is built next to the “second spring in the world”. This pavilion in Taoran Pavilion was built in 1985.
The two spring water system includes upper, middle and lower pools. The upper and middle pools are located in the spring pavilion. The upper pool is round, 1.94 meters deep, with octagonal stone railings, each side of which is 0.80 meters long. The middle pool is adjacent to the upper pool, only 0.65 meters apart. It is square, about 1 meter deep, with square stone railings on each side. The side length is 1.40 meters. The two pools are shaped like a round sky and a square earth, and are connected by a water inlet above the pool. Because Zhao Gou, Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty, once drank from the spring here in the Xinsi year of Shaoxing (1161), “therefore a fence was set up to protect it.” However, the bluestone fences that exist now are all relics of the Ming Dynasty.
21. Echi Pavilion: Located at the foot of Lanzhu Mountain in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province. Legend has it that the sage Wang Xizhi let goose down under the Yellow Crane Tower. One day, he was chatting with a scholar about geese, saying that geese are “heroes among birds, white as snow, as clean as jade, and spotless.” The more he talked, the more excited he became, and he couldn’t help but write the word “goose” on the ground. Scholars loved it, so they copied it and kept it. To commemorate this great story, later generations built a monument and a pond. There is also a saying that Wang Xizhi built a pond to raise geese and observed their expressions, thus mastering the character “goose” in one stroke. The pond is called Swan Pond. This pavilion in Taoran Pavilion was built in 1986.
Goose Pond
22. Exiled Immortal Pavilion: Designed by the Landscape Design Institute to commemorate the “Poetry” Li Bai, it is an exquisite building with different shapes. It is located on a cliff, near a flowing water, near a lush forest, or leaning on a bamboo, with twists and turns. , well-proportioned, each with its own unique color, reflecting each other, adding infinite scenery to the entire garden.
23. Shaoling Thatched Cottage: There is a stone tablet in the inner tree, engraved with the four characters “Shaoling Thatched Cottage”. The writing is strong and graceful, and it was written by Prince Guo Yunli. In the twelfth year of Yongzheng’s reign (AD 1734), Prince Guo traveled to Tibet and passed through Chengdu. He paid a special visit to the thatched cottage and left this handwriting. This attraction is one of the most iconic attractions here, and people often use it as a symbol of thatched huts. More than a thousand years ago, Du Fu took his family from Gansu to Chengdu to avoid the “Anshi Rebellion”. In the spring of the next year, with the help of friends, he built a thatched hut on the banks of the picturesque Huanhua Creek in the western suburbs of Chengdu. After its completion, it was called “Chengdu Thatched Cottage”. He lived here for nearly four years. Because he was awarded the title of “Yuanwailang of the School Inspection and Works Department”, he was called Du Gongbu. There is a stele pavilion named “Shaoling Thatched Cottage” in Chengdu Thatched Cottage. The period of living in thatched cottage in Chengdu was the most fruitful years for Du Fu’s creation. He left more than 240 poems, such as “Spring Night Joyful Rain”, “The Prime Minister of Shu” and other famous poems. Among them, “Song of Thatched Cottage Broken by the Autumn Wind” is an eternal masterpiece. A swan song. “Two orioles sing in the green willows, and a row of egrets ascend to the blue sky. The window contains the snow of Qianqiu in the Xiling Mountains, and the ship thousands of miles away from Dongwu is moored at the door.” This “quatrain” vividly depicts what the poet saw in the thatched cottage. This pavilion in Taoran Pavilion was built in 1985.
24. Aiwan Pavilion: Located on the hill in Qingfeng Gorge behind Yuelu Academy in Changsha, it was built by Shanchang Luo Dian in the 57th year of Qianlong’s reign in the Qing Dynasty (AD 1792). The original name is “Red Leaf Pavilion”, also known as “Ai Maple Pavilion”. Later, it was renamed Aiwan Pavilion according to “Mountain Journey” by Du Mu, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, taking the poetic meaning of “stop and sit in love in the maple forest at night, the frost leaves are as red as the February flowers”.
Just past this bridge is Taoranting.
25. Tao Ranting: Look at the way it looks like it’s half-covering its face with a lute in its arms. No wonder many people can’t see its existence.
Taoranting has to go up a relatively high step. There are two white magnolias at the door. It was the blooming season when I went there.
The snow-white petals look really beautiful against the blue sky.
There are three large plaques on Taoranting Pavilion. One is written by Jiang Zao, the man who built the pavilion. The other is taken from Qi Baishi’s “Moon over the Xijiang River: Climb up to Taoranting to look at the Western Mountains”. The other one is inscribed by Guo Moruo with the Chinese characters “Taoranting Park” on the forehead, pavilion. “In the eyes of wise eyes, half an acre of red lotus and green marsh blooms, fireworks appear outside, and the white moon breeze blows in the hall” hung respectively in the room. The current couplets were written by the modern calligrapher Kang Yong.
Hanging on the east doorpost is “It seems that I heard Tao ordered me to open three paths to share a niche with Amitabha”. Horizontal batch: Tao Ran. This couplet was written by Lin Zexu. The old couplets no longer exist, and the current couplets were rewritten by contemporary calligrapher Huang Miaozi.
Taoranting is actually an open pavilion with three halls. In the 34th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty (1695), Jiang Zao, a doctor from the Ministry of Industry, was ordered to supervise the black kiln factory. He built a small pavilion in the west of Mercy Nunnery and quoted Bai Juyi’s poem “Waiting for the Juhuang family’s wine to be ripe, I will be drunk with you.” The word “Taoran” in the sentence “Yitaoran” is the name of the pavilion.
Taoranting is a famous pavilion in the Qing Dynasty and is now one of the four famous historical pavilions in China.
“No one comes to the ancient temple in Yanzang, and the couch is leaning against the deep hall for the moon to come.” This couplet was written by Weng Fanggang. During the Guangxu period, Jingming, the host monk of Mercy Temple, asked Weng Tonghe, the teacher of Emperor Guangxu, to rewrite it. Now on the pillar on the right side of the front of Taoran Pavilion it is written: No one has come to Yanlong Ancient Temple; on the pillar on the left side it is written: The tree leans against the deep hall and the moon comes; horizontally it is written: Taoran Pavilion (written by Guo Moruo)
Taoran Pavilion is three rooms wide and one and a half rooms deep, with an area of 90 square meters. There are Soviet-style paintings on the pavilion, and the beams inside the house are decorated with landscapes, flowers and birds. The two beams are painted with “Colorful Chrysanthemums”, “Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea”, “Taibai Drunk” and “Bangs Playing with Golden Toad”.
There is also a small corridor on Taoran Pavilion.
On January 18, 1920, Comrade Mao Zedong, Deng Zhongxia and members of the “Auxiliary Society” who were in Beijing at that time came to Taoranting to discuss the struggle to expel Hunan warlord Zhang Jingyao, and took photos under the locust tree here. The original tree was dead and was replanted in the spring of 1979.
The 25 pavilions mentioned at the beginning have been written. Because there were still three photos of the pavilion whose name I already knew, I searched the Internet for its approximate location in Taoranting, and came to Taoranting for the third time in the morning of April 24, 2016. After entering the north gate, I searched along the middle and northeast direction. In addition to finding the three pavilions, I also got photos of four more pavilions, overfulfilling the task. And after asking the park management staff this time, we learned that the original online statement that there were 36 pavilions in Taoran Pavilion was no longer accurate, because two pavilions had been demolished, and now only 34 pavilions remained. This way I’m one step closer to my goal.
When you enter from the north gate, you are facing the kiln platform.
26. Kiln Terrace Yingxue Pavilion: This pavilion is not far to the right of the kiln terrace.
27. There is another nameless pavilion on the mountain next to the Yingxue Pavilion on the kiln platform.
28. Jiangting Fish Watching: Go to the left from the kiln platform and you will find this pavilion. A big stone in front of the pavilion reads: Jiangting Fish Watching
There is a jar of water in front of the pavilion, with many goldfish in it.
29. Nameless Pavilion: There is such a nameless pavilion on the hill leading to Ruixiang Pavilion.
30. Ruixiang Pavilion: A Ming Dynasty building, the original site is in Sheng’an Temple at the west entrance of Nanheng Street, Xuanwu District. It was moved to the hill in the northeast corner of the park in 1983, echoing the Yilan Pavilion on the hill in the southwest corner, while the Ruixiang Pavilion is Tao Ran’s. The highest point of Pavilion Park.
31. Spring Pavilion: This pavilion is under the hill in the northeast corner of the park. It is usually not easy to find here. Looking at the lush jasmine leaves in front of the pavilion, I thought that if I came in March when the jasmine flowers bloom, the yellow flowers would set off the green pillars of the pavilion. I guess this is where the name of this pavilion comes from?
32. Wuming Pavilion: This pavilion is a working pavilion next to the children’s fishing pond. I wonder if it counts?
So far I have found 32 kiosks. What if we include the two kiosks selling tickets at the north gate? Ha ha! (Just kidding)
If you add the two kiosks selling things, it will be super high, haha! You might as well count it yourself to see if it’s bad or not bad!
