Come to Wuxi, I get the instructions on the page are: to Wuxi and a must-Taihu Lake, Taihu Lake and will travel to yuantouzhu. Into the hands of Wuxi on the map then I said, Wuxi is full of warmth and water. However, my first impression of Wuxi, was not sentimental it is accessible, generous, accessible maps come from the feeling at first. I am the past, the concept of the city is always first fence off a box, the box, there are vertical and horizontal meridians, the box outside the Second Ring Third Ring Road, is a poly-Wai and the concept. However, Wuxi City is only a way connected to an obtuse rhombus, which is downtown. This is way beyond almost all roads lead straight stretch into the distance, never came back head like a clear indication of the spread of ideas done. With this tolerance of a city, etc., regardless of their size are impressive enough to the.
After the generosity from the yuantouzhu, as long as they bought a ticket at the gate then you rest assured Wanba, elevated in relation to car parks, trains, ferries back and forth, all the door and all performances free of charge, we do not, Wuxi bored bored taste the way it follow you for a tip.
Take the ferry to Lake Taihu Xiandao later I began idle stroll, be able to travel off-season tours alone is a blessing, I have to enjoy something. A walk on the way there is a sudden burst of music came, I stand our ground listening for a while, to determine which music is playing and not playing man-made recording, so he tracks the sound away.
To a House called the days are sen where music came from here. A door I was dumbfounded, and even an audience there is no! The performer continues to work diligently, and announcer is still down word for word. I was moved to their professionalism, so they stood respectfully in the solar insolation under the act as their only audience.
Performer is the four girls and a man on in the hot stage dressed in Tang suit everybody. Is based on string and wind instrument playing mainly for, and Zhong Qing. I looked at looked at it have begun to notice the bells. Chimes is a great invention in ancient China, China's has been tempered early, off than the West as early as the number of how many years. However, this instrument itself, the expression is a bit poor, particularly in the following row of bell, playing running back and forth must embrace the big stick, it is no guarantee of decent. No wonder then brothels only five minor tone put this music out of the clean elegant palace.
They played intermittent knock when I took office, it will then require the bells. But I also can not find how scale, until the performer himself pointing the side that I found in the bells of those damn semitone. It seems the ancients of these notes quite a lot of discrimination in the meaning of an unknown, I began to think that if Confucius heard the blues, then the result will be what? Guanbao he would throw up more than mad, I do not know meat can also be in March.
The island inside the celestial palace is a rare Taoist relics, in fact that inside the celestial palace is surrounded by a statue of the Jade Emperor built the tower, that a statue of a high major. Three-story tower will be divided, a substantial layer of their feet, the second floor to watch his waist, three layers will be able to confront with that of the Jade Emperor. I excitedly of the climb, trying to enjoy a Monkey's music, but can not find it difficult to think of dreams, leading to the third layer channel is locked.
There are a lot of Taoist inside the celestial palace frescoes, allegedly made by the Yuan Dynasty. As can be seen recently have been patched, but did not affect the extent of these wonderful paintings. The first attracted me was an Eight Immortals, strangely enough, is that the early years of the Eight Immortals went so far as there is no charge Hsien Ku, and Han Chung Lu Tung-pin in addition other than one of the six I have also not recognize. Eight Immortals one by one an air of pride I can not understand squat, but then I come to understand this is a real, rather than eight cartoon characters, the Eight Immortals. Everyone in their solemn expressions in his eyes, it is scattered and not gather, there is no secular Que of obsequiousness, is quite indifferent to life, the lofty down. This posture is, I pray can not get it all.
In a large room after the walls of the temple I saw a picture of Taoism. Queen's scholar-officials who crowded the emperor neatly lined, each wore a halo back of the head are obviously, this will cause a loss. Religion is a need to idol worship, and such a big load emperor empress just being you want people to have encyclopedic knowledge. The basis for the survival of religion in terms of people, and this too, and profound to eat?
