(Daily 1 "Chinese Cultural Historical Sites" No. 1306) In the 1920s, scholars went to Shaoxing to do cultural relics investigations, and the local population called it "Strange Mountain". So, what kind of mountain is the strange mountain?
In fact, it is "Turtle Mountain", perhaps a misreading of the market. Today it is also known as Tower Hill. So, a hundred years ago, what other artifacts were there?
↑ An octagonal seven-story brick tower on Shaoxing Tower Mountain (Strange Mountain).
According to the 1941 "Historical Sites of Chinese Culture" (Honshō's "Atlas of China's Scenic Spots and Monuments in the Late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China"), Tashan mountain is in Shaoxing City, formerly known as Guishan Mountain, also known as Feilai Mountain, Baolin Mountain or Strange Mountain. The "Notes on the Water Classics" records that the mountain resembles a turtle, so it is also known as the turtle mountain, and the lingtai rises on the mountain to look at the clouds. There is a temple on the mountain, and the forehead of the "ancient Qingliang Temple" hangs.
The monastery decayed, and only the octagonal seven-story brick tower stood. The name of the tower should be the tower of heaven. The wooden parts of the various floors that make up the arches and the top of the tower have been lost, except for the brick tower and the remnants of some of the arches. The tower is coated with chalk, and the windows on each floor are open, and each side is one, or two, or three, which is a kind of arch window. The first floor was originally surrounded by a porch, but the wooden part of the porch has been completely destroyed, and now only stone pillars can be seen standing empty around. The first floor of the tower is about ten feet in length on each side, and now the height is about twelve zhang, and only the part below the bowl remains, and the upper part has been lost. The date of construction is unknown, but it may have been built in the Song Dynasty and preserved by later generations of repairs.
Thank you for your impetuous headlines, pay attention to our unpopular cultural relics academic articles (in order to adapt to the internet reading volume, I had to slightly bow to the title party, too serious may read the amount of reading is in the single digits. We've done over 1000 issues). May you reap the rewards, Daan.
