A poignant and beautiful love story unfolds in Shen Garden
Located at No. 318, Lu Xun Middle Road, on the east side of Lu Xun's hometown in Shaoxing, Zhejiang, there is an ancient garden known as 'Shen Garden,' which was originally a private garden of the Shen family from the Song Dynasty. The once obscure Shen's garden became famous because of 'Chai Tou Feng,' and because of Lu You and Tang Wan. Their 'Chai Tou Feng' verses complement each other, making them rare gems within this style of poetry, and both Lu and Tang brought it to the ultimate level. The sorrowful verses of 'Chai Tou Feng' evoke sympathy, and their undying and faithful love shines through the ages, becoming a model for future generations.
Shen Garden in Shaoxing is a key national cultural relic protection unit and a national 5A-level tourist attraction. The poignant and beautiful love story of Lu You and Tang Wan, a great poet of the Southern Song Dynasty who is as famous as Li Bai and Du Fu of the Tang Dynasty, took place in this old garden. The world-famous verse 'Chai Tou Feng' has since made Shen Garden renowned, attracting countless visitors.
The 'Chai Tou Feng' written by Lu You and Tang Wan on the walls of Shen Garden is a classic and leading work among the ancient 'Chai Tou Feng' style of poetry. The entire verse is sorrowful and desolate, touching the hearts of readers. Lu You wrote: 'Soft hands of rouge, wine of yellow silk, the city is full of spring colors and willows by the palace walls. The east wind is harsh, joy is thin, a heart full of sorrow, years of separation. Wrong, wrong, wrong...' Tang Wan responded: 'The world's affection is thin, people's hearts are harsh, rain sends dusk flowers falling easily. Morning wind dries, tear stains remain. Wishing to write down my feelings, I speak alone by the slanting rail. Difficult, difficult, difficult...'
Outside the wall, the blue water stirs the east wind. A thousand years away from love, still in this garden. Very good, there is a scene, a love, a culture, a history, it is worth visiting, a few steps is a scene.
Say big or small garden scenic spots, the scenery is still good, there is a poetic and picturesque. There is also a Luyou Memorial Hall inside, don't miss it when you pass by, you can go in and see the life of Luyou.
Very atmospheric ancient garden, as soon as people walk in, they immediately feel relaxed and happy, as if the whole person is in a fairyland, the beauty of the garden is also sighing! The garden is very big and worth visiting again!
I have always liked the story of Lu You and Tang Yu. The performance of Shenyuan Night depicts the story of Lu You and Tang Yu very well, so that people who have not heard the story can also immerse them. Unlike the well-regulated performance, there are many unique interestingnesses. The only pity is that Zhao Shicheng is a very good person. In this story, Zhao Shicheng is almost not described, but the story of Lu You and Tang Yu is still very complete, and it is worth seeing a performance. The scenery of Shenyuan is also beautiful, with green trees and quiet forests, small bridges and flowing water. You can also do a boat, it is the kind of Shaoxing characteristic boat, the experience is very good.
Shen's two gardens have different styles, and stroll in the garden to experience leisure and fun outside the city. The surrounding public houses are slightly incongruous. Since they are not during the holidays, there are fewer people and more scenery, and the blue waves in the sun are rippling and the scenery is full.
OK attractions! There are not too many people going to the first day of the New Year. It is very big inside. It is really a big family! Rockery loft pavilion! There is also a stage! It is really good to have such a house in this location! Come visit again next time!
Shenyuan is not only a small and exquisite Jiangnan forest garden, but also has a deep cultural heritage. Ancient literati and ink guests gathered with this, but also staged the love story of Lu You and Tang Wan. Leave a great song of "Shantou Feng" for ages. Shenyuan divided into day tours and night tours, Shenyuan under the lights has another charm, and another performance is very worthwhile.
