May Day holiday to see the magical mirage landscape: Penglai

The magical mirage landscape: Penglai

When the car arrived in Penglai, it was just dark. About 5 minutes west along the 5-kilometer coastal sightseeing Avenue in the city, Penglai Pavilion, which is hidden in green trees and flowers, is in sight: the distant mountains contain Dai, surrounded by the near water, the waves beat against the red red Dan cliff, the seagulls soar in the blue sky and clear water, the fishing boats sail to the sea, the birds sing in the Forest & hellip; & hellip; gradually, a round of red sun slowly floats out of the sea, and the gorgeous glow reflects the Red Fairy Pavilion Around the mountains and rivers, the silent night of the scenic area is also gradually noisy. What a beautiful landscape painting!

With the flow of people like weaving into the scenic spot, it seems that there is also a kind of unique Fairy Spirit floating in the air. The imitative Qing Dynasty painting workshop, which is composed of four columns and single eaves, is majestic and magnificent. The four gilded characters of "Penglai on earth" inscribed with Su Shi's handwriting in the middle and the couplets of "Danya qiongge walk freely, and the heart and spirit of green sea and Xiancha fly over" reflect each other, reflecting the simplicity and elegance of fairyland resort. Up the qingshiyong Road, you can see the 'Danya fairyland' workshop standing on Danya mountain. It's shining against the setting of the morning sun. The enthusiastic guide introduced wittily: entered 'Dan cliff Wonderland', you can become 'immortal'.

Mysterious scenery of mountains and seas

A word of "immortal" is probably the essence of Penglai. As an ancient Dengzhou mansion, Penglai has always been a place for countless people to look at the sea and pray for immortals. The first emperor of Qin waved his whip and sighed that the immortals could not be found. Xu Fu boarded the boat to seek for immortals and medicine. The Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, who also longed for immortality, once looked at the Penglai mountain on the sea, where there was no trace of fairies, so he couldn't help himself. He called it "fairyland", and then Dengzhou was also called Penglai. During the Jiayou period of Song Dynasty, Penglai Pavilion was built, which is as famous as Tengwang Pavilion, Yueyang Tower and Yellow Crane Tower, and is one of the four famous buildings in ancient China. It is like a historical old man, watching the reproduction of the world here, reading the vicissitudes of the century. The vast sea gave birth to its beauty and beauty, and the long years accumulated its profound cultural heritage.

"Eight Immortals" and "Haishi"

The main hall of Penglai Pavilion on the top of dengdan cliff is next to Xiange. It is high and has a panoramic view. It is a feeling of transcendence and immortality. Overlooking to the north, the sea and sky are vast, fishing sails are dotted, ten thousand li Chengbo is clear. The tireless seabirds, like a group of white spirits, suddenly rush to the silver wave to skim the water, and then fall to the black reef to perch. To the south of the city, there are thousands of houses, tall buildings, traffic, a prosperous scene of national security and prosperity; to the west, there are Tianheng ancient village, standing out of the water, gloomy; to the East, there are battle boats waiting to be sent in the sabre fish village, handsome flags hunting, and the past 'qijiajun' sweeping the army is still mighty. From afar, I saw someone rowing a small boat to fish on the island of Haixin in the distance. When I came back from the sunset, I think I had already got a lot of fish and shrimp.

Since it is a fairyland, there will be many fairy stories. In Penglai Pavilion, listen to the legend of "Eight Immortals crossing the sea". It's not interesting.

It is said that the eight immortals gathered at Penglai Pavilion one day to drink wine. When the wine reached its peak, they negotiated a trip to the sea. Han Zhongli then threw the plantain fan into the sea, lay on the fan with her chest open and belly open, and drifted to the distance; he Xiangu was not willing to show weakness, and threw the lotus into the water, which immediately turned red. The fairy stood on the lotus, and swam with the waves. Other immortals also throw their treasures into the water and swim to the East China Sea with the help of them. This move shocked the Dragon Palace. The eight immortals clashed with the Dragon King of the East China Sea, causing a fight. The Dragon King of the East China Sea also invited the Dragon King of the South China Sea, the North Sea and the West Sea to set off a huge wave. The two sides fought hard. Fortunately, the Avalokitesvara passed by and stopped fighting after being dissuaded.

It was a local old man who told the story that day. Although there was a puzzling Jiaodong accent in his words, everyone listened with interest. It's the beginning of the lunar summer, and the gentle sea breeze accompanies the warmth to give people a burst of comfort and comfort. It is said that every year from the beginning of this solar term to the month of September, it is the most likely season for Sea city wonders. For the city of Haishi, from ancient times to the present, many literati have had vivid descriptions. From Bai Juyi's "suddenly heard that there are fairy mountains on the sea, the mountains are in the void" to Su Dongpo's "Oriental cloud sea air recovery, the group of immortals appear in the sky and light", from Shen Kuo's "Mengxi pen Tan" to Yang Shuo's "Haishi", this phenomenon has been truly recorded.

I remember when I was a kid, one afternoon after rain, I went to visit the pavilion with my brother. Suddenly, I heard someone yell: "the city has gone to sea." we hurried to look north, only to see that many of the original scenery of the opposite Changshan Islands disappeared from the front of our eyes. Instead, it was a mysterious landscape: gathering and forming, dispersing and forming Qi, various forms, changing rapidly. Sometimes it looks like a tower, like a pavilion; sometimes it looks like a strange tree, like a strange peak; sometimes it lies on the sea, sometimes it hangs in the air, if it is broken, if it is hidden, it seems that there are still people shaking in the hazy. In a moment, the long bridge flies, in a moment, the pavilions are towering, the strange peak hanging upside down in the East has just disappeared, and the chimneys standing in the West are striking;

At that time, because I was young, I couldn't understand the mystery of it. Later it was known that this phenomenon was due to the abundant sunshine, the air close to the sea surface was in a high density and low temperature state, and the air density was sharply reduced from the bottom to the top. When the light passed through these different density air layers, it would have refraction or total reflection, so that the distant scenery would be displayed in the air and sea surface, and then the mirage could appear on the sea.
