西单大叔"Go to Beiwu Park to see the Dingguang Pagoda Beijing is the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties. Since the Jinzhongdu period, Beijing has officially begun to be a country capital (previously Yanguo belongs to the capital of the Zhuhou State, and Liaoguo belongs to the companion capital), and it also began from the Jin Dynasty. Beijing's western suburbs began to be built as royal gardens by the royal family, and continued to build gardens and palace gardens for the three generations of the Yuanming and Qing Dynasties. When the Qing Dynasty, it was a large-scale \"three mountains and five gardens\" that made the old royal gardens - Nanyuan, which were mainly used for hunting, gradually deserted. The Royal Family is increasingly fond of the three mountains and five gardens, which are mainly used for sightseeing and pleasure, not only has been consuming huge national power for hundreds of years, but also has worn out the spirit and physique of courage, which is probably one of the reasons why China has suffered shame in modern times. In fact, there are not only three mountains and five gardens in the western suburbs, but also many \"gardens outside the garden\" around them. In the past decade, the restoration and new construction of various parks have become more and more fully in place, and a large number of \"gardens outside the garden\" have been built, such as Zhongwu Park, Beiwu Park, Liangshan Park, Yinghulou Park, Yudong Country Park, etc. Although these parks are not as famous as the three mountains and five gardens, the natural scenery, human history and cultural background are also very good, and some of the scenery in the three mountains and five gardens need to be better viewed in the park, such as the Yuquan Mountain and the Dingguang Tower on the mountain that are not open to the outside world. Instead, it is the best view to go to the Beiwu Park at the foot of the mountain. After a few days of heavy rain, the sun finally came out yesterday, and the clouds this morning were very colorful, large in size and varied in shape. Just looking at the scales, it turned into a wave after a while, and it also covered the strong sunlight, although the hot and humid air still gathered and difficult to disperse. But the occasional cool breeze also makes the body feel much better. It is convenient to come to Beiwu Park by car, subway, and bus. If you drive, go to the north gate. The opposite is the parking lot at the west gate of the Summer Palace. The parking lot is oversized; Take the subway to change the West Suburb Line, the West Suburb Line Summer Palace Ximen Station gets off and crosses the road for tens of meters to the north gate of the park, and the best photo attractions on the West Suburb Line are here; there is a bus stop outside the north gate, in short, it is convenient. Enter the north gate, pass the \"Minister Lin\", in front of the lakeside wooden plank road and successive corridor pavilions, in the pavilion just opposite the Dingguang Tower on Yuquan Mountain, this Dingguang Tower is also called Yufeng Tower, in the Xiangji Temple on the main peak of Yuquan Mountain, the top of the tower is 150 meters from the ground. It is the tallest tower in Beijing's geographical location, and there are many places in Beiwu Park that can overlook the Dingguang Tower from different directions. It should be said that it is the best place to watch this Yuquanshan Tower. Now it is the time when the reeds are lush and lotus leaves are sliced, and the fish come out of the water from time to time after the rain to ventilate. There are ducklings swimming not far from the shore, and the lake is very lively. Not far from the lake, there was an ancient building. Regarding the Emperor Temple and Jinshan Temple, Jinshan Temple is still the seat of Beiwu Village History Museum. It is only closed on Saturdays and Sundays. An orange cat in front of the temple slept very well in front of tourists. There is a rice field behind Jinshan Temple, which is the famous \"Jingxi Rice\", and it is rumored that the \"Zijinyu\" rice seeding trial income brought back when Qianlong went down to the south of the Yangtze River."
