There are thousands of cities in Qian Qian in the world, and Jiujiang is the only one. The lake is vast in the east, the screen is lofty in the west, Kuanglu Feizhi in the south and the Yangtze River in the north. Swallow the lake and spit the river, you will be favored by mountains and rivers and enjoy the merits of nature alone. Great rivers and lakes, famous mountains and cities, unique to China; The natural terrain is superior and ingenious, and the northern part of Pan 'an is unparalleled in the world. I have a special, strange non-existence. All the cities in the four seas are surprised, and all the guests in five continents are surprised.
Jiujiang is thicker than history. The ruins of northern Shaanxi include Neolithic civilization, Shang and Zhou mining and metallurgy, and bronzes shine brilliantly. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, people called it "Wu Tou Chu Wei". The unification of Qin and Wang started with the establishment of Xinjiang. In the sixth year of Emperor Gaozu, Guanjian City was built. Since then, people have prospered. Chai Sang called Jiangzhou, Xunyang changed to Dehua. Although its name is more important and beneficial, it has lasted for several dynasties. Because there are nine factions gathered in the sea, to the river, to the area where thousands of businessmen come and go. Famous port, thoroughfare of seven provinces. The three major tea markets have their own names, and the four major rice markets have their own places. Relying on the trend of controlling rivers and lakes, it has become a battleground for military strategists. How many Jin Ge iron horse, how many fold halberd sink sand. Wu Dong navy division, tuen army protection, Zhou Yu armour, Gan Tang point will (3). Yue Fei defended his country and devoted himself to serving the country. Bird struggled hard and started Daming's inheritance. Taiping array base, blood spattered sword shadow. There are angry anti-colonial voices inside and outside the concession. The first shot of Nanchang Uprising was planned by Sri Lanka. The national manifesto is anti-Japanese, and it was published in time. 1949, the wind and thunder raged, starting from Jiangyin in the east and reaching Jiujiang in the west. Millions of heroes crossed the Yangtze River, and the red flag pointed to the haze, and Jiangcheng dried up from then on.
The beauty of Jiujiang lies in the mountains and rivers. Lushan Mountain is famous at home and abroad, with strange peaks and strange seas, which is unparalleled in the world and won the world cultural landscape. Poyang Lake is the largest lake in China, with thousands of miles of clear water and five rivers. The stone clock stands at the mouth of the lake where rivers and lakes meet. There are the golden waves of the Yangtze River and the vast silver waves of Poyang Lake, which are distinct in layers and stretch for miles, making them the first wonder of China. The kingdom of migratory birds in Wucheng is a paradise for rare birds. The most auspicious thing is that the white crane flies in the water, and the strongest one sings for the geese. Thousands of birds meet in a cloud, without seeing the beginning and the end, and are known as the "Second Great Wall of China". Zhelin Lake Thousand Island Floating Green Pavilion flies to Dan, just like Penglai Wonderland; Xiushui River is full of rhythm and splashing poems, just like the landscape of Guilin. There are Dragon Palace, Lion, Yongquan and Emei in the cave, each with its own wonders. There are Lindong, Zhenru, Tiefo and capable people in the temple, which are world-famous. Matsuzaka was a great husband in front of Yaobang Mausoleum. Next to her mother-in-law's grave, flowers and plants accompany the immortal soul. The four lakes are flooded, and the shadow of the Li dike is 6. There is a lake in the city and a city in the lake. The city and the lake embrace each other, and the lake and the city are blind. Xunyang Tower stands on the river, with nine clouds, lying alone in Yanshuiting Lake like a dream. Lock the river tower, no "Jiangnan Pisa". Pipa Pavilion is small and exquisite, like Beauty of Datang. The Yangtze River Bridge was born, flying from north to south, adding magnificent scenery to this historic city.
Jiujiang's victory is better than all humanities. Lingshan is beautiful, talented and famous in history. Secretariat of Tao Kan, mezzanine martial arts; Prime minister Wan Li, integrity lingyun. Tao Yuanming hangs his crown angrily, wanders in the countryside, and brushes out a new generation of writing style. Huang Tingjian was eclectic, devoted himself to the leisure room and started the "Jiangxi Poetry School". Li Liejun's heroism, the righteousness of the second revolution. Chen Baozhen is one of the four outstanding figures, ranking first in politics. Rafada, the master architect of the Forbidden City, Ao, the earliest weapon expert in modern times, a news pioneer and a democracy fighter, are all heroes of China people and national elites. Since the Jin Dynasty, a famous man has never failed. When the wind meets the clouds, each has its own strengths, poetry and prose, and rosy clouds are flying. Hui Yuan, the first pure land, shocked the world. Jian Zhen was stationed in Xi 'an to spread scriptures, and the name spread to Japan. Li Taibai sings with mountains and rivers, and the waterfall rises for nine days. Bai Sima's tears wet the sky, and a pipa never echoes. "I don't know the true face of Lushan Mountain", there is philosophy in Su Dongpo's poems. "Taking famous mountains as teachers", Wang Anshi sent a secret love with scenery. Bailuyuan Academy, Zhu Fuzi preached and dispelled doubts, with unprecedented pomp. By the lotus pond, Zhou Dunyi is proud of his dedication to lotus flowers. There is another great man, Mao Zedong, who jumped into the sky, looked at the clouds coldly and was full of poetry on the dangerous peaks. Kuixing is high, and the article lasts forever. Celebrity masterpieces temper the character of famous cities. Famous names cast the soul of famous cities.
Today, Jiujiang is a hero. The wave of reform is surging, magnificent and has a long history. Open wind, clouds and water billow yellow. Rapid economic development and social revival. The song of triumph is high and the moon is new. Advanced manufacturing industry, high-tech guidance, the rise of emerging industrial towns. International docks, people flow and logistics, merge into a famous commercial port city. Beautiful scenery, friends like clouds, and bright tourist attractions. Xiang Tao is full of fish jumping, sweet melons and beautiful fruits, highlighting the new eco-agricultural area. Expressway runs through three provinces, and railways and aviation run directly in all directions, showing the majestic posture of a transportation hub. High-rise buildings are more colorful than shoulder-to-shoulder streets. The sky is blue and clear, the grass is green and the flowers are red. The charm of a charming city is freehand. Advocate science, attach importance to education, and have abundant talents. Pay attention to people's livelihood, and the people are happy and healthy. The flowers of literature and art are in full bloom. The fruit of ideology and morality is rich and full. The most unforgettable year was 1998, when floods, bad waves vacated and river banks burst, which shocked the world. The soldiers and civilians built a wall hand in hand, and the Dragon King was locked in unity. The success of blocking the mouth is a miracle on earth. Hard work builds the spirit of fighting floods. Nowadays, in Di Wei on the riverbank, people's hearts remain the same. Qi Xin works together to hold high the great goal of scientific development; Break through the thorns and write a new chapter of harmonious entrepreneurship.
Today is the legacy of yesterday, and tomorrow is the legacy of today. May Jiujiang be my icing on the cake. People are the most expensive, you are rich in merit but not proud; This is the hardest thing to do, but it is difficult to stride forward without stopping. Recalling the glory is to draw grand plans, and reciting the present is to describe the future. Xiong is in Jiujiang, riding the east wind of the new century and soaring all the way. Jiujiang is magnificent, playing epoch-making new songs, resounding through the sky.
