The History and Culture of Yellow Crane Tower

1 because the fairy said

There are two theories about immortals. It is said that an immortal drove a crane through here at that time, hence the name. It is said that a Taoist priest painted a dancing yellow crane on the wall of Xin's restaurant, and the business of the store was booming. Ten years later, the Taoist priest came back, recruited the yellow crane with a flute and flew there by crane. The Xin family also invested in building a building called the Yellow Crane Tower.

2. Yin Shan said

According to the textual research of past dynasties, the name of Yellow Crane Tower was taken because it was built on Huanggu Mountain. In ancient times, the words "mandarin fish" and "crane" changed from one sound to another, and they were common, hence the name "Yellow Crane Tower".

3. The poet put pen to paper

When Cui Hao boarded the Yellow Crane Tower, he wrote the "Yellow Crane Tower" full of his talents and deep homesickness: "In the past, the Yellow Crane carried saints to heaven, but now only the Yellow Crane Tower is left. The yellow crane never came back, and there were no long white clouds for thousands of years. Every tree in Hanyang has become clear due to sunlight, and Nautilus Island is covered with sweet grass. But I looked at my hometown, and the twilight was getting deeper and deeper, and the mist of sadness was filled on the river waves. " This poem made Li Bai, who later boarded the Yellow Crane Tower, sigh: "There is no scenery in front of me, and Cui Hao wrote a poem on it."
