1. The wonders of the world are full of "tidal culture"
Haining Tide, also known as Zhejiang Tide or Qian Jiangchao, is known as "the wonder of the world" because it is separated by a river. Tide watching in Haining was popular in Han Dynasty and flourished in Tang and Song Dynasties. Pan Lang, a poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, sang, "Looking back at the tide, Manzhouli people fought for the river." . I suspect that the sea is empty and drums are beating all around. Xiang Tao in the frolic in the waves stands upright, and the red flag in his hand is not wet. If you don't watch the dream a few times, you will still be chilling in the dream. "It is a true portrayal of" frolicking in the tide "and" watching the tide "in those years. The haining tide is formed under the attraction of the moon and the sun and the centrifugal force produced by the earth's rotation. There are two tides in Shanghai every day, the meridian tides on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, and the period of half a month is one week, especially the tides from the first to the fifth day of the lunar calendar and from the fifteenth to the twentieth. There are 120 good days to watch the tide in a year.
Haining is a tidal resort, which is related to its unique geography. Qiantang River to Hangzhou Bay is a typical trumpet-shaped bay with wide outside and narrow inside, deep outside and shallow inside. The east side of the estuary is100km wide, and the river is only 3km wide when it reaches Yan Guan Town, Haining. At high tide, the wide and deep bay mouth swallowed a lot of seawater at once. Due to the rapid contraction and shallowing of the river surface, the rushing tide on the road could not rise evenly, so the back wave pushed the front wave, and each wave was higher than the other, forming a steep water wall. Hainingchao has formed a follow-up tour of "one tide, three views and four views". Watch the "Ssangyong Sumo Meeting Tide" in a gap about 8 kilometers east of Yan Guan Town, watch the "White Training Tide Crossing the River" in Yan Guan, watch the "Surging Shore Breaking Tide" in the old salt warehouse about 1 1 km west of Yan Guan Town, and watch the "Midnight Moon Tide" at night to enjoy the tide.
The unique tide of haining in the world has attracted countless famous tourists for thousands of years. Famous writers such as Bai Juyi, Li Bai and Su Dongpo left more than a thousand poems chanting tide after seeing the wonders. In the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Qianlong went down to the south of the Yangtze River and went to Yan Guan four times to watch the tide of haining, writing more than 10 poems. Sun Yat-sen, Mao Zedong and other great men also came to Haining to watch the tide and left poems. The vast tidal surge in Shanghai has impacted the inspiration of many literati, leaving a wealth of "tidal culture" materials, which have been condensed into a special history textbook.
2. Light eyes reflect "light culture"
Shi Xia Lantern Festival in Haining is a famous handicraft. It began in the Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Song Dynasty. After thousands of years of tempering, it has formed a local folk cultural feature that integrates handicrafts, calligraphy and painting, with high scientific and technological value and aesthetic value. Song dynasty was listed as a tribute to the palace.
Shi Xia Lantern Festival in Haining is famous for its exquisite acupuncture patterns, which are poetic and picturesque, including poetry, calligraphy, painting, seal cutting, epigraphy and embroidery. There are eight techniques in the craft: "needle, bend, knot, tie, carve, draw, paste and mount". In addition to the same procedures as in other places, the gaps outside the painting and calligraphy patterns are all needled, shoveled and stuck in the paper where the painting and calligraphy have been made. If there are fewer lights, hundreds of thousands of holes will be pierced and more than 10 million holes will be pierced. The light after acupuncture is transparent and colorful under the candle.
Where there is light, there is opportunity. In Haining, the Lantern Festival is on the 13th day of the first lunar month. The 15th Lantern Festival is the most prosperous, and the 18th Lantern Festival is called "Lantern Festival". As a local custom, the Shi Xia Lantern Festival in Haining formed a grand occasion of performing, chasing and lighting lanterns during the Qianlong period of Qing Dynasty. Every time the grain is abundant and the society rises, the people spontaneously greet the lights and follow them from generation to generation. When playing lanterns, people carry all kinds of colorful lanterns on their shoulders, accompanied by the music of silk and bamboo bands and drums and cymbals, laughing and walking through the streets; The queue to meet the lanterns is miles long, and the crowds watching the lanterns are so crowded that they stay up all night. In recent years, modern features have appeared in lighting technology, such as electric beads, electric lights, fluorescent lights, neon lights and modern lighting art, which is dazzling. Especially the modeling, both ancient and modern, is fascinating.
Shi Xia Lantern Festival in Haining is a wonderful flower bred by Wuyue culture.
