In the crisscrossed street of ShenYang,we moved hurry and passed by them.They have the
old face,strong body and wise view.When the autumn leaves fall down ,we may stay here
watch the beautiful scenery and feeling the historty of the ancient city in Shenyang
tour.
Ancient Shenyang, a fractured inheritance
Shenyang was grown beside the ancient Liao river,famous for its geographic site.As one
of the main cradles of Chinese nation,Shenyang is a well-known historic and culture
city. Although other cities also have a long history of two thousand years,the
characteristic of Shenyang is concentrated on the Jin dynasty.The buidlings look old
but has a sense of antique beauty.
The tower of Liao dynasty,the temple of Qing dynasty,the hidden histoy were can nit be
count.The first emperor laid the foundation of Shenyang,Ming and Qing both coutinue the
work of built.But Shenyang like a Chinese northesat man,he did not notice,the great
building were all destroyed in the war or the histoy soot.The most current construction
of the Liao dynasty padoda had gone,most of them were damaged after the Public of
China.Such as the Chongshou temple and Bai tower were built on the central axis of
Shenyang, .They were the most famous towre in S henyang.Some popular poet had written
poem to praise the tower.But the temple was destroyed later,the tower was gong in 1957
too.The buildings still exist today were only a handhalf.In the autumn,clime the Qixing
mountain to viewing the historic tower,the wind blast in the ear are telling the
legend.
Actually about the most valuable building in Shenyang were the royal
construction.Nuerhaci change the capital to Shenyang and brought it the most glory
period,the ancient part of Shenyang was formed in that time.The Shenyang Forbidden City
is scrubby than the Beijing Forbidden City,but it is still a world culture heritage,is
one of the two whole palace buildings.The famous Zhaoling and Fuling were also in
Shenyang.Nowadays,waling in the ancient streets we can still feeling the sense.
A lengend in 19th Century
A sound of ‘brave the journey to Northeast’contained stories of several
generations.From the end of Qing to the Public of China,less than 100 years,a hero
named ZhangZhuolin became the President of the Republic of China from a bandit.The
story like it so many.Because of the effort of those brave people,Shenyang became a
great city.
On the south of Shenyang Gugong,walk hundred of metres along the small street is the
northeast king ZhangZhuolin’s offical residence.It was not inferior than Gugong.The
buitlding match Chinese and western is a miniature of history. It was the political
central of northeast during the two grand wars.Same as the president of Nanjing,its
style is match Chinese and western.And it focus politicai and everydan foundation in
itself.The big green and small green were most attractive.The big one copy the roman
architectureand the small one keep the style of Chinese.
When poeple say Zhang,they think he was a worlord,it is a kind of prejudice of
ism.Actually he was a lengend born of folk.Zhang was born in apoor peasant,after a
series of war,he became the last powerholder of Beiyang.He like others call him ‘the
Zhang general’.During his time,he refused the Japanese several times and finally died
of Japanese.
Say bye to the industrial age
Time to dial back fifty years,the soil under your foot was the most industrial base.As
the eldest son of republic,has a history of industrial development,and had make lots of
glory.But you must do not know that more thirty years ago it undergo a lot of sacrifice
of revolution.
You never know where is the next stop,at least I sense like the buses in this
city.Maybe you can guess some of its thought,but you never known when it will change.It
just like a dream,full of the red colour ,but when you wake up ,it is a ocean of blue.
The development of the site of the industrial age is in nearly 10 years ago.Walk into
the museum of Chinese industry,you can also feel that from heavy metals and hot
blood.If you want to understand the industrial city deeper you can watch the movie<the
Tiexi area>
Grow in ruins,and where to go
Needless to say,the wind of making city must was popular in Shenyng,aside from the
district economy and development policy that Shenyang was renewed.It like the Ruhr in
the east.In the great age of the forwar wave,nobody will reject the new building.But
where the ancient city should go ,nobody knows.
Sometimes think about it,the noew things in Shenyang make people upset.The old
buildings have a great background but had been left in the corner.And it is hard to say
if the hidden story can be think of.It seemed that Shenyang is a city do not care the
humanistic care,that history maybe submerged in the old eyes.Whatever I hope,Shenyang
can blosssom again.
Shenyang should not be described as she but he.He is a strong and powerful old man that
bear the cold eyes from the youth.He open his newborn eyes,the blood still can be
seen,the wind blast and dry his tears.Then we can see the grand man stand up and show
his glory again.
