Landscape geomantic omen

According to historical records, Mu Ying, who was guarding Yunnan, hired Wang Zhanhai, a famous geomancer in Jiangxi, to design and build Kunming City. Wang Zhanhai carefully inspected the topography, landforms, mountains and lakes of Kunming, and thought that if a turtle-shaped turtle city with its back to Changchong Mountain and facing Dianchi Lake was built in the south of Kunming, it would certainly benefit the people. Wang Zhanhai, a famous geomancer in Ming Dynasty in China, was later called the master planner and geography teacher of Kunming urban construction. The general pattern of modern Kunming city was decided when Kunming city was built in Hongwu period of Ming Dynasty (1382). Mu Ying, then the highest military officer in Yunnan, invited Wang Zhanhai, a famous Yin and Yang family and Jiangxi native, to visit the mountains and rivers in Yunnan, and presided over the planning of the construction of Kunming City, with the intention of building Kunming into a city where turtles and snakes meet and produce the spirit of emperors. ※※

According to historical records, after Mr. Wang arrived in Kunming, he first made clear the origin and development of Kunming City, that is, the direction of the mountains on which Kunming City depended. The origin and development of Kunming City is Changchong Mountain, that is, Snake Mountain, which is also the main mountain of Kunming. It originated in the northwest of Huize county, five or six hundred miles away, and its origin and development are far away. This is the excellent Long Mai in Feng Shui theory. The snake mountain is full of dragon spirit, winding and undulating, winding from the northeast to Kunming, ending at Tiefeng Temple, which is even more subtle and prosperous. ※. So it rose from nine to nine, and to the west and south, a jade screen (today's screen) opened on the mountain, which was full of flowers and delicate (Wuhuashan). Wuhua is divided into five branches and ends at the Confucian Temple. Wang Zhanhai figured out the cause and effect, and thought it was a dragon drying up, so he turned and left. This is a "Zi Long" that is extremely difficult to see in a vein! Therefore, Kunming City was designed as a turtle shape, which is based on the fact that the city is at the foot of the snake mountain and connected with the snake mountain range, forming a state where turtles and snakes intersect. Kunming City should be a great blessing. ※※

The south gate of Kunming is the glans and the north gate is the tail. The big east gate, the small east gate, the south gate and the small south gate are the turtle's four legs. ※. Mr. Wang also set up a needle in a melon-shaped highland on the right side of Wuhua Mountain, saying that this place was the most prosperous, so he later set up the Governor's Office to take charge of political affairs in Yunnan. When the city is about to be built, Wang Zhan Sea specially made three stones, engraved on them, which read "Yunnan won the south of the Yangtze River in five hundred years", and it is unknown where the stones are buried. The turtle is a spirit turtle, and its tail is moving, so the inner door of the north gate faces north, while the side door faces east instead of north, indicating that the spirit turtle has lost its tail. The big west gate and the small west gate face east, the small east gate faces west, and the outer side faces south, indicating that the turtle started on four legs. Only the inner and outer doors of Dadongmen face the same direction, because the east belongs to wood, so it is better to bend it than to take wood. You are always welcome to hide the wind and gather water. ※。 ※

Because of Mr. Wang's planning, Wuhua Mountain has become the main vein of Kunming, Zhengyi Road is the central axis running through the north and south, and Wuhua Mountain is the central point. At present, the government offices of Victory Hall (Yunnan-Guizhou Governor's Office), Governor's Office, Government Secretariat Office, Fantai, Taotai and Food Department are all sitting in a row facing south. Land Temple, Town God Temple, Yuantong Temple, Wuwang Temple and other temples all conform to this feng shui trend, and the context layout has many functions, thus forming the pattern of Kuncheng. ※. ※※

Why must Kunming be built into a turtle city? ※? Wang Zhanhai has a theory. He thinks Changchong Mountain in the north of Kunming is the main peak of Kunming. Changchongshan is a snake, and this snake is a male. If there are men, there must be women to match them. Therefore, Kunming city must be built into a turtle city, and turtles and snakes intersect, so that the people can live endlessly, be auspicious and safe. Therefore, under the careful design of Wang Zhanhai, the newly-built Kunming Brick City has become a turtle city with a very similar appearance. It has six doors, the south gate is the glans, the north gate is the tail, and the big east gate, the small east gate, the big west gate and the small west gate are the turtle's four feet. This turtle is not an ordinary turtle, it is a spirit turtle, a god turtle. It lost its tail when it moved, which means that the turtle lost its tail. When Wang Zhanhai built Kuncheng, he also asked craftsmen to carve a lifelike turtle out of stone, and carved a prophecy on the turtle's back: "Five hundred years ago, Yunnan won the south of the Yangtze River." Buried under the south gate. You are welcome at any time. ※

Kunming designed and built by Wang Zhanhai is not only a peaceful and peaceful capital of turtles and snakes. Why do tortoise and snake have sex? ※? It is a thing in the water, symbolizing water; Snake is the name of the mountain. It represents the mountain. The so-called intercourse between a tortoise and a snake is actually a mountain with hidden wind and a land with water. The so-called turtle city built by Wang Zhanhai just moved Kunming in the Yuan Dynasty to the northwest slightly, and surrounded Wuhua Mountain, Luofeng Mountain, Zubian Mountain and Cuihu Lake outside the city, forming a more landscape garden city with mountains and water inside and outside the city. A city is surrounded by mountains and water, last stand. "Water is abundant when it is high, but it is not close to drought. The low water is close to the water, and the ditch is provincial "("Pipe "). It is on the edge of the overlapping of terrestrial ecosystem and aquatic ecosystem, which is really helpful to urban defense and residents' production and life, and also has aesthetic value of pleasing the eyes and relaxing the body and mind of residents. Such an environment is the ancient geographer, landscape poet and China. Guan's geography refers to Mongolia, saying, "Water has no mountains, gas is scattered but not attached, mountains have no water, and gas is cold but not smelled." ..... Mountain is solid gas, and water is air. The soil is too high and its gas is too strong; The water is too deep and its gas is too strong. " Yes, the mountains are long and the water is beautiful. The city has mountains and water, and Zhong Ling is beautiful. The mountain-water city with its back is a good place with the strongest defense, the most convenient life, the most beautiful scenery and the most suitable for human habitation. China ancient landscape culture is the perfect unity of science, philosophy and aesthetics.
