Chaoran Building was built in the Yuan Dynasty by Li Yan, a native of Shiten Prefecture, a university in the Yuan Dynasty. Li Was born in the eleventh year of the Zhiyuan Dynasty (1274) and died in the seventh year of Zhishun (1332) at the age of 58. He first served as the editor of Hanlin, and then became a bachelor of Hanlin and participated in the revision of the "Classics of the Classics", and after the completion of the book, he retired from illness and came to Daming Lake to build a building and a garden, which included the TranscendentAl Building, the Tianxin Water Pavilion and other famous attractions, which became a gathering place for relatives, friends, and friends. However, the Chaoran Building was destroyed in the twelfth year of Ming Chongzhen (1639), and the building collapsed, and the bachelor was gone.
The overall planning of Daming Lake New Area is designed by Tsinghua University and Beijing Forestry University, jinan planning institute, Jinan garden design institute, Suzhou garden ancient construction design institute to do detailed rules, all designers have a consensus is to build the commanding height of Daming Lake - landmark buildings.
Speaking of the commanding heights of Ming Lake, there is a Huibo Tower built on the Huibo Bridge in the Song Dynasty on the north shore of history. From the bottom of the bridge to the top of the building is about 30 meters high, which is also the North City Gate Tower of Jinan, climbing the tower can enjoy the beauty of one of the eight scenic spots under the old calendar" "Huibo Xizhao", which has always been the tallest building in Guqi Prefecture and even the old Jinan City. The Yuan Dynasty scholar Zhang Zhihan has a poem "Looking at the victories of Shandong, the unique Jinan is many, the green lake is beautiful, and they all lose to Huibo", and Zhang Yanghao, a cultural master of the Ming Dynasty, also has a poem known as Huibo Lou "Birds flying clouds and jin thousands of layers away, people in Danqing ten thousand paintings".
Then there is the Arctic Pavilion, which is less than a few hundred meters away from the building, the Arctic Pavilion, also known as the Arctic Temple, was built in the Yuan Dynasty (1280), built on a 36-level high platform, with the Zhonglou Drum Tower, the East and West Rooms, the Front and Rear Halls, which was the largest Taoist temple in Jinan at that time. The ancients praised "seeing the south mountain in the palace, and the city is hanging on the Big Dipper", praising its lofty and majestic power. (This collection of Wang Right Army's calligraphy is now hanging above the pillar of the North Pole Pavilion).) There is also a towering building in the city, the bell tower inside the former Bell Tower Temple on the south bank of Ming Lake. This building was built in the Ming Dynasty, on top of the three-story brick platform, built a four-level attic, eight pillars of kui, hanging on the Jin Dynasty Ming Chang years smelting bell (1190-1196) weighs about eight tons, iron, bell casting thick and exquisite, through gold, Yuan, Ming, Qing so far, wind and rain years, still intact. The bell is round and bright, and the square garden can be heard for ten miles, and it has the reputation of "the first bell of Qilu". On the south side of the bell tower, a huge plaque "Leisurely See the South Mountain" hangs on it, people stand here, and the beautiful scenery of the Alexandria Mountains can be seen, which is also a tall building on the shore of Ming Lake. Only the bell platform and pillar foundation remained after the collapse of the building, which was restored twice in 2009 and 2019. In 1994, the big bell was moved to the Yan Gong Platform on the north shore of ming lake, and the "MingChang Zhong Pavilion" was built.
In the old days, in addition to the city gate towers in the east, west, south and north, there was also a tall building near Daming Lake, "White Cloud Tower", which was hidden in the Ming Dynasty's German King's Mansion in Pearl Spring. The three-storey building has the magnificent beauty of the northern royal palace architecture, and it is also within the palace, which is naturally often the place where the officials and envoys have leisure to discuss. Looking at the mountains in the south, the green water in the north, the autumn banyan tree in the north, after the snow in the middle of winter, the silver is wrapped in plains, the pearl spring water vapor, steaming and confused, the white cloud tower is like the Jade QiongXian Pavilion, the beauty is extremely magical, so it is one of the eight scenery of the calendar "White Cloud Snow Ji".
When Silou collapsed is unknown, but these famous buildings are dotted with Jinan's mountains, springs, lakes, rivers, and cities so beautiful that they are unforgettable...
Ten years ago, Jinan was already lined with high-rise buildings, and Daming Lake wanted to build a high point. Is it a tower? Is it the Cabinet? How high? Where is the location? Become the focus of the architect's thinking.
Initial design:
1. Build daming pagoda, designed according to the legendary Daming Temple of Daming Lake. He put forward the concept that "there must be a tower where there is a temple, and a tower must be towering, and the concept of gathering gods and spirits is towering."
Second, the name of Daming Lake originates from Daming Temple, and the construction of Daming Pagoda is in the same vein. Such as the White Pagoda in Beihai, the Lei Feng Pagoda in west Lake, the Liuhe Pagoda in Nanjing, etc. are the crown of scenery in famous places, and they have flowed through the ages. Therefore, daming pagoda was built, and the area was called "Daming Shengjing".
We believe that the scheme has no historical evidence and is only in the beautiful legends of people. Through consulting historical materials, it is found that the Ming Dynasty scholar Yang Yansi wrote a poem by Chaoran Lou:
Near the water pavilion grass and wood Xin, Zhu Lou 100 feet back to the waves.
The window contains the rain of the East China Sea, and the sill overlooks the clouds of The South Mountain.
Willow-colored lotus fragrance honors the water degree, and lingge fishing singers are smelled in the seat.
The Seven Bridges Smoke Moon who collected it, scattered into the Bright Lake has been ten.
It was also found that the Qing Dynasty scholars Ren Hongyuan and Pu Songling wrote poems about the Chaoran Building, which were demonstrated by experts, especially Mr. Chen Jieqiao's proposal of "do not bring superstitious colors, respect its old system, and respect history" to let everyone have a unified understanding, deny the Great Ming Pagoda, and build the Chaoran Building.
The site is located in the north-east of the old city of Jinan, on the east bank of Ming Lake. After several balloons were placed, observed at different angles for two days, it was finally determined; seven layers, with a height of 51.7 meters, which is in line with the optimal stability of the triangular Pythagorean law. At the same time, it is also determined that the Chaoran Building is in accordance with the Song and Yuan architectural style, and the "Zhu Lou 100-foot Echo Wave" in the Genzhu poem is the vermilion tone, coupled with the Boyi Hall and He Shengzhai of the two ends of the auxiliary building, the entire building complex is like a huge Kunpeng that wants to spread its wings and fly, shaking thousands of miles. The name of Boyi Hall is taken from the hall number of the golden stone bronze ware exhibition room in the former Daming Lake Reverie Garden, the original site of He Shengzhai is the earliest drama in Jinan in the Qing Dynasty," "He Sheng Drama", this area is named "Dengsi Lou, can understand the transcendent thing, zhiyuan reverie", so it is named "transcendent to the far".
