The mountains are beautiful and natural, and Yue Zang poems treat others. Huashan Mountain in Xiyue is the first mountain in the world, and it is famous for its precipitous beauty at home and abroad. It stands beside the Yellow River, the mother river of the Chinese nation, silently guarding the hearts of thousands of people, nurturing and shaping the profound and tenacious national temperament of Shaanxi and even China.

Huashan Mountain, a huge mountain peak composed of a huge granite, interprets unparalleled natural scenery and becomes a symbol of Chinese willpower, a spiritual symbol recognized by Chinese children and a national totem. Huashan Mountain is a mountain of culture, which contains inexhaustible cultural treasures, the deepest cultural genes of the Chinese nation and the root vein of Chinese civilization.

Huashan Mountain was called "Xiyue" in ancient times and "Taihua Mountain" in elegance, ranking first among the five mountains. "Hua" of "China" and "Huaxia" originated from Huashan Mountain. Huashan is adjacent to Qinling Mountain in the south and Huang Wei in the north. Taoist culture, sacrificial culture, martial arts culture and countless myths and legends have put a mysterious veil on Huashan. Throughout the ages, the majestic posture and aura of Huashan Mountain have inspired the literary thoughts of countless literati, and poems and songs with Huashan as the theme have become a bright pearl in the treasure house of Qinling culture.

Culture Huashan Huaxia style

Huashan Mountain is called "Xiyue" and "Dongyue" Taishan Mountain, which was first seen in Erya Shishan. "Shui Jing Zhu Wei Shui" said: "It is 5 thousand meters high, cut into four squares, and looks like a flower from a distance." In ancient times, "Hua" and "Hua" were universal, so "Huashan" was "Huashan". "White Tiger Yi Tong" contains: "There is Huashan Mountain in the west, and there is little shade to use. Everything is born in China, so it is called Huashan. " Huashan Mountain is listed as "the place where the Yellow Emperor meets immortals in Xuanyuan" in The Book of Songs Gong Yu. Later generations speculated that the Yellow Emperor formed an alliance with tribal leaders here. Since then, Huashan has become more and more famous.

Huashan Mountain, as one of the earliest sacred mountains, can be traced back to the Yao and Shun period. In ancient times, people called Huashan "a house where many immortals lived together" and regarded Huashan as the god in charge of the West and the god in charge of autumn. In the history books, there are records of "four trips to Xiyue" and "three trips to Xiyue by Shun". As a system, the sacrifice of Huashan Mountain in Xiyue started from Qin Shihuang and was scheduled for Emperor Wudi of Han Dynasty, which "declined later". As a part of Huashan culture, Huashan sacrificial culture has a long history, profound connotation and various forms.

Modern scholars believe that "Huaxia" and "China" are both named after Huashan Mountain. Zhang Taiyan, a famous scholar in the Qing Dynasty, said: "The former residence of our nation, Huayin in the southeast and Huayang in the northeast, is limited to Huashan, and the Chinese name of the country comes from Huashan. Later, people traveled all over Kyushu and the name of China began to spread. " This fully shows the prominent position of Huashan in the development of the Chinese nation. China's "Hua" originated from Huashan Mountain, so Huashan Mountain is called "the root of China". Huashan culture, as a mainstream spirit of Chinese national culture, shows positive and indomitable spiritual integrity and becomes a symbol of national spirit.

Taoist culture has a long history.

Huashan Mountain is a prestigious Taoist shrine and one of the birthplaces of Taoism in China.

Huashan Mountain is the holy land of the mainstream Quanzhen Taoism, with the "Tai Chi Total Fairy Cave", which ranks among the top ten caves in Taoism and is called the "fourth cave". There are 72 semi-suspended caves and more than 20 Taoist temples on the mountain, which is a great spectacle of Huashan Mountain. Yuquan Garden, Presiding College and Yue Zhen Palace are listed as national key Taoist temples. Historically, Hao Datong, He Yuanxi, Wang Zhongyang and other famous Taoist masters practiced here. Chen Tuan's ancestors lived in Huashan for many years and created their own ideological system in Huashan practice. Therefore, Huashan Mountain has a position of cultural coordinates in the history of Taoism in China.

When people come to Huashan, they often go to Yuquan source at the foot of Huashan first. Yuquan Garden is quaint and quiet, shaded by green trees and winding cloisters. Yuquan hospital was built in Song Renzong. It has been destroyed and restored several times, and it is a famous Taoist Quanzhen Taoist view. "Yuquan Daoyuan is water-soluble, and the stone pavilion opposite Bifeng. The secluded path falls in spring and goes early, and the curtain is inclined and the swallow is unintentional. " In the Ming Dynasty, Yang Shen painted a quiet scene of flying swallows in a small pavilion in Yuquan Garden. Mi Fei, a calligrapher in the Song Dynasty, has written the Complete Map Monument of Huashan and the Monument to the First Mountain.

Poetry and painting Huashan are wonderful.

"Xiyue eventful He Zhuang zai, the Yellow River as blue as silk. The Wan Li of the Yellow River touches the mountain, and the vortex center turns to Qin Mine ... These three peaks may be destroyed at any time, while the Cuiyadan Valley is open. The gold in Bai Di is full of vitality, and the stone is a lotus cloud. " Li Bai described the magnificence of Huashan Mountain in an imaginative way in the poem "Song of Xi Yue Yuntai Dan Qiu Zi".

Huashan Mountain, as the first mountain in the world, has attracted many literati to visit it since ancient times. Literati are often full of lofty sentiments, full of literary thoughts, poetry and ink. Celebrities such as Li Daoyuan, Su Yang, Yang Jiong, Zhang Jiuling, Li Bai, Han Yu, Bai Juyi, Ouyang Xiu, Su Shi, Lu You, Zhu Yuanzhang, Xu Xiake, Feng Menglong and Yuan Mei have all visited Huashan Mountain. They either lamented the preciseness and mystery of Huashan Mountain, or admired its magnificence and magic, leaving behind one masterpiece after another.

The "danger" of Huashan ranks first among the five mountains. In the Ming Dynasty, Xu Xiake described the danger of Huashan Mountain as "a mountain with thousands of peaks hanging over it". Kou Zhun, a famous figure in the Song Dynasty, wrote: "Only the sky is above, and there is no mountain and peace. Look up at the red sun and look back at the low white clouds. Du Fu wrote in "Looking at Yue": "Xiyue respects its position and stands like children and grandchildren. How can the fairy wand climb Huashan to the Jade Buddha Temple with it? It's hard to go back when you enter the trunk valley, and the mountain peaks go straight into the sky like the tail of an arrow, making it difficult to climb. After the autumn wind was cool and cold, Gao Xun Bai Di asked about the real source. Yuan Mei, a poet in the Qing Dynasty, wrote in "Climbing Mount Hua": "Taihua dominates the west and leans on the sky like a knife." The flashing iron flower is cold and desolate. This painting depicts the precipitousness of Huashan Mountain.

Xifeng is 2082.6 meters above sea level and is one of the main peaks of Huashan Mountain. Because there are huge stone lotus petals on the peak, the ancients often called it Lotus Peak. Yuan Hongdao wrote in "Huashan Ji": "The stone leaves are covered with transverse cracks." It is recorded in Xu Xiake's Diary of Youtai Huashan: "From the peak on the stone, there is a stone covering it, such as a lotus." In the poem "Xifeng", Chen Tuan has a famous sentence, "Send a message to avoid guests, this is a fairy town".

Huashan's dangerous peaks, strange rocks, streams, pines, spiritual springs and exotic flowers and grasses complement each other and become the best objects painted by painters of all ages. At present, the earliest known painting about Huashan Mountain is the "Wuyue Palace Map" by the painter He Changshou at the end of Sui Dynasty and the beginning of Tang Dynasty, but there was no literature record before Sui and Tang Dynasties. Famous artists such as Zhang, Fan Kuan, Lv Wang, Qi Baishi, Zhang Daqian, Fu Baoshi, Shi Lu, He Xia Hai and others all painted Huashan Mountain. There are many painters who paint Huashan Mountain. Different ages and life experiences make everyone look at Huashan from different angles, and also shape Huashan with different faces in their works.

Climbing up Huashan Mountain, cliff stone carvings with rich content, different styles and precious artistic value left by literati in the past dynasties can be seen everywhere on the cliff rocks along the way, forming a spectacular stone carving art landscape, so Huashan Mountain is also known as the "air calligraphy art corridor".

With the passage of time and the erosion of wind and rain, some stone carvings have been weathered and peeled off, most of which are cliff stone carvings after the Song Dynasty, and there are still hundreds of them. These cliff carvings either pour out patriotic feelings, praise great rivers and mountains, cherish the feelings of wanderers, mark the landscape of place names, or reflect Taoist thoughts. In the art of calligraphy, the styles of lines, calligraphy, cursive script, official script and seal script are diverse, which bring unforgettable aesthetic feeling and artistic influence to tourists and become a major cultural landscape of Huashan.

The stone carvings on Huashan Mountain are like frozen historical scrolls, witnessing the wind and frost of history and bearing the light and shadow of the years. Huashan stone carving has become a treasure house of Chinese calligraphy art because of its age, huge volume and high artistic value.

Climb to the peak, where there are lush trees, quiet environment, and many unknown exotic flowers and grasses. There is a Jade Girl Temple on the top of the mountain, which is said to be the place where Nong Yu, a woman from Qin Mugong, practiced in the Spring and Autumn Period, so this mountain peak is also called Jade Girl Mountain. Most of the scenery in Zhongfeng is related to the story of Nong Yu in Shaw History. According to legend, Nong Yu, the daughter of Qin Mugong in the Spring and Autumn Period, loved music, especially playing the flute. One night, she dreamed of a handsome young man who was good at oral sex and wanted to marry her. According to what his daughter saw in her dream, Mu Gong sent someone to Huashan Xingya to look for him. He met a man with a crowned crane and jade face and red lips, who was playing the flute. This man's name is Shaw History. The messenger took him to the palace and became related to Nong Yu. One night, they played the flute under the moon, which attracted Zifeng and Chilong. Shaw History told Nong Yu that he was a fairy and had a special relationship with Nong Yu. Today, Longfeng came to meet us, and we can go. So Shaw History, Lapras and Nong Yu passed through Phoenix and both flew away. Qin Mugong sent someone to chase him to the top of Huashan Mountain, but there was no figure, so he built a shrine under the cliff of the stars to commemorate him. There is a saying in Du Fu's "Looking at Yue": "An De immortal nine branches lean on the jade girl's shampoo basin."

Huashan on the Red Legend of Sword

When it comes to Huashan Mountain, many people will think of Huashan Mountain as a sword. In fact, Huashan's sword theory was born from Mr. Jin Yong's wonderful novels and passed down from mouth to mouth, becoming an idiom-like existence. Since then, Huashan has been endowed with the soul of martial arts.

Huashan on Sword is a virtual martial arts story written by the martial arts novelist Jin Yong. Jin Yong described the story of Huashan discussing swords in his martial arts novels "Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "Legend of the Condor Heroes", which made the heroes in the Jianghu stay in the dangerous Huashan discussing swords, compete with each other and talk about martial arts, creating a strange and dangerous swordsmen world. Since then, Huashan is full of fairy spirit, firm but gentle, heroic spirit, heroism and loyalty; Since then, Huashan has a unique name-"Huashan on the sword", which has spread all over the country.

On the same day, Mr. Jin Yong boarded Huashan to participate in the "Huashan on Sword" activity. Although Jin Yong has described Huashan many times, and Huashan has become an important symbol and background in his martial arts novels, it is interesting that this is his first time to go to Huashan. Jin Yong went through Beauty Pass, Wine Pass and Nie Weiping Endgame Pass, and came to Huashan North Peak to talk with Zhang Jizhong, Yang and Kong. At that time, the media rushed to report this activity and became a phenomenal topic.

Nowadays, "Huashan on the sword" has become a part of Huashan culture and is deeply rooted in people's hearts. Martial arts heroes are full of heroism because of Huashan Mountain, and Huashan Mountain is also full of chivalry because of the hero's sword. The two complement each other.

The danger of Huashan Mountain is said to be "one road leads to Huashan Mountain since ancient times". During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, there was no road to the peak of Huashan Mountain. Until the Tang Dynasty, with the prosperity of Taoism, Taoist believers began to live in the mountains and build temples, and gradually dug a dangerous road along the valley on the northern slope, forming a "road starting from the ancient Huashan Mountain". The story of outsmarting Huashan Mountain happened here.

1949, under the powerful offensive of the People's Liberation Army to liberate the northwest, Hu Zongnan led his troops to flee to the south, and Han Zipei, the commander of the Kuomintang army, led the remnants to flee to Huashan, and laid heavy troops on the main road of the mountain pass in an attempt to fight the natural barrier to the death. Liu, a reconnaissance staff officer of a regiment of the People's Liberation Army of China, led a team to sneak into the mountain area, led by Huashan woodcutter Wang Yinsheng, and climbed to the top of the mountain from the back of the cliff. He took advantage of the night to touch the north peak, raided the enemy on the defensive, and finally succeeded in adowa on the defensive.

"Magic soldiers descended from heaven, and heroes outsmarted Huashan Mountain" and "outsmarted Huashan Mountain" reflected the heroic spirit of China People's Liberation Army, which was tenacious, brave, resourceful, decisive and fearless. Nowadays, the legend of outwitting Huashan Mountain has become a red tourism cultural resource of Huashan Mountain, and Huashan Mountain has also become a vivid classroom for young people's patriotism and revolutionary tradition education.
