Features: Travel does not emphasize culture; it's just a hurried glance, a fleeting impression. When beautiful scenery is before you, you fail to notice it, or when you do notice it, you don't know how to appreciate it, or when you appreciate it, you don't understand its essence. So, what kind of travel is this? Poetry, on the other hand, is the thick foundation of travel culture, a exquisite amber accumulated over millennia in the long river of cultural history. Only poetry can depict the Jiangnan scenery of apricot blossoms and spring rain; only poetry can portray the grand and ancient landscapes of the northern regions; only poetry can interpret the serenity of morning bells and evening drums, restoring the thousand-year-old charm of historical sites, and igniting the grandeur of the prosperous era along the desert ancient roads.
For this reason, we do not deliberately seek Tang poems or browse Song lyrics. We only look at the scenery, the poetry within the scenery, letting our senses seek magnificent landscapes in poetry, and letting our hearts experience towering poetry in the scenery. Thus, we timely launch the book A Dream of Tang and Song Poetry in Search of Scenery, to fulfill the readers' long-held wish. This book takes tourist attractions as its main thread, accompanied by a wealth of poetry, with illustrations and text complementing each other, creating a harmonious blend of poetry and scenery. The book is divided into five sections, each of which can stand alone as a complete piece.
Among them, "Morning Bells and Evening Drums, Listening to Buddhist Chants" is the best guide for you to seek the places where the Buddha once stood; "Cultivating the Self and Seeking Seclusion" is the modern map for you to trace the footsteps of Taoist immortals; "Traces Left for Ages, Remembering the Past" is the best place for you to reflect on the past and contemplate the present; "Traversing the Silk Road, Singing and Dancing Along the Way" is the perfect destination to recall the grandeur of the Han and Tang dynasties; and "Treading Through Mountains and Rivers, Writing the Spirit of the Land" lets you immerse yourself in the rich customs and traditions, making you linger in every mountain and river, every moment of romance.
Every broken wall, every shattered tile, every grain of sand, every piece of wooden scaffolding here tells a story, carries a legend, and quietly solidifies in the essence of poetry. A thousand years have passed, and another thousand years have passed. It silently awaits your arrival, waiting for you to quietly listen and carefully savor.
