The White Emperor is a town of three gorges, and Qutang is dangerously passing through the Hundred Prison Pass. On the evening of the 14th, the "2022 Chinese Poetry Conference" ushered in the tenth final, and Yang Yu, a professor and commentator of Central South University, personally visited the "immersive" real scene title recorded by Chongqing Fengjie, taking "Poetry Saint" Du Fu as a guide, watching the ancient and modern Kuizhou "departure", and exhibiting the prosperity of Fengjie in the new era.

Located in the hinterland of the Three Gorges Reservoir Area, Fengjie, known in ancient times as Kuizhou, was named after the "Fenggong Shou festival" and successfully won the reputation of "Chinese Poetry City" in 2017. This is the Feng festival, which has bloomed on this show for 5 consecutive years.
"Scenery" and "poetry" are both brilliant, what is the charm of Fengjie?
Pan Wanshan, director of the Fengjie County Cultural and Tourism Committee, said in an interview with reporters that Fengjie is the homeland of poetry, Li Bai's "Early White Emperor City" and Du Fu's "Ascending to the Heights"... For thousands of years, countless literati and inkers have lived here either as officials or travelers, "climbing the top of the Three Gorges and singing beautiful scenery", leaving more than 10,000 famous passages. In order to further consolidate the cultural heritage in the inheritance, in 2017, the "six advances of poetry" activities of poetry entering the campus, entering the institution, entering the community, entering the courtyard dam, entering the enterprise, and entering the scenic spot were widely carried out in the county, "reading the history of the poem, praising the poem, singing the song", which completely ignited the enthusiasm of the citizens for poetry.
"Poetry has been integrated into every aspect of my life, or it can be said that poetry is my life, and my life has its own poetry." 」 Qian Mindao, a Fengjie player who successfully qualified for the 2022 Chinese Poetry Conference, was a Fengjie player in the 100-person group.
The White Emperor City, a national-level 4A scenic spot, the western gate of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River... Fengjie is famous for its numerous natural and cultural landscapes. How does Fengjie use poetry to complete the "scenery"? Pan Wanshan said that in recent years, Fengjie has actively explored a new path of "poetry + tourism" and gradually stepped out of a new development model of cultural and tourism integration.
Meet friends with poetry and promote culture. Since 2017, Fengjie has held the "China White Emperor City" International Poetry Festival for five consecutive years, which has become a cultural feast expected by literati rioters. During the period, outstanding poets, lyricists, artists and poetry lovers from all over the country gathered in Fengjie, collecting style on the spot, and frequently producing excellent works, so that Fengjie culture went out of the deep boudoir and became famous; in the same year, Fengjie County cooperated with CCTV's "Chinese Poetry Conference" column in depth, continuously excavating local culture, and fully demonstrating the charm of "Poetry City" at home and abroad.
Welcome guests with text, taste the classics. On the side of the White Emperor City, an imposing river stage floats on the river, where famous poems depicting Fengjie, such as "Bamboo Branch Words" and "Eight Songs of Autumn Xing", complete the grand scene reproduction of "There must be poetry when you travel to the Three Gorges" in the large-scale poetry and cultural performance "Return to the Three Gorges", which has become the "punching place" that tourists yearn for Fengjie tourism.
Chongqing Fengjie, where does "poetry and far away" go?
In 2022, the Work Report of the Chongqing Municipal Government requires that it be necessary to make special brands such as Three Gorges Manufacturing, Three Gorges Farmhouse, and Great Three Gorges Tourism. "At present, the Baidicheng Qutangxia Scenic Area is working hard to create a national 5A-level scenic spot." Pan Wanshan revealed that the Zhengwan high-speed railway will be opened within the year, when it will only take about 3 and a half hours from Zhengzhou in Henan to Chongqing Fengjie in the hinterland of the Three Gorges Reservoir Area.
