Why is Qinling known as the first dragon vein in China?

<>Qinling Mountains are located in the center of China).

In terms of geographical definition, the Qinling Mountains are divided into broad and narrow senses.

In a narrow sense, the Qinling Mountains are located between 32°-34° north latitude, stretching 400-500 kilometers from east to west, and 100-150 kilometers wide from north to south, between the Guanzhong Plain and the Hanjiang River valley in the south, and are the watersheds of the four rivers of Jialing River, Luohe River, Wei River and Hanjiang River.

In contrast, the Qinling Mountains in a broad sense are much larger.

The Qinling Mountains start from Kunlun in the west, pass through Longnan, Shaanxi, and Henan, and extend eastward to Hubei, Henan, Anhui, Dabie Mountain, and Zhangbaling near Bengbu, with a range close to Anhui and more than 1,600 kilometers from east to west.

The Qinling Mountains are majestic and tall, and its main peak, Taibai Mountain, is one of the best mountains in the eastern region, and the Xiyue Huashan that we are usually familiar with also belongs to the Qinling Mountains.

Due to the long mountain range and the high altitude overseas, the Qinling Mountains are able to block water vapor from the Pacific Ocean in summer and cold air from Siberia in winter, so the north and south of the Qinling Mountains are two completely different worlds, and people also define the Qinling Mountains as the dividing line between north and south of China.

In addition to its huge influence on the climate, the Qinling Mountains also have a slow story in history.

Due to the steepness and height of the mountains, the Qinling Mountains have been a barrier between Shu and Guanzhong since ancient times, and there have been countless wars around the Qinling Mountains in history.

From Qin's annihilation of Shu to Han Xin's secret crossing of Chencang, to Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition to the Central Plains during the Three Kingdoms period, and then to the wars between the Southern Song Dynasty and the Jin State and Mongolia, Qinling has always been a battleground for soldiers.

Among them, Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition to the Central Plains during the Shu and Han dynasties completely surrounded the Qinling Mountains.

Since Guan Yu was killed by the Wu army in Maicheng, Shu Han lost the Jingzhou region, after which Liu Bei wanted to recapture Jingzhou, but was defeated by Lu Xun in the Battle of Yiling, and the recapture of Jingzhou came to naught.

The defeat of Yiling made Liu Bei ashamed, and he soon died in the White Emperor City, and after Zhuge Liang took power, he actively repaired the relationship with Eastern Wu, and the Sun and Liu families reconciled.

But reconciliation returned to reconciliation, Jingzhou returned to Eastern Wu, and going north out of the Qinling Mountains became the only choice for the Northern Expedition of Shu Han.

There is no way, although the Qinling Mountains are big, Zhuge Liang still has to go north.

But the Qinling Mountains are too difficult to walk, it can be said that one man is the key to ten thousand people, Zhuge Liang had to go around a gap in the west of the Qinling Mountains, Qishan, which is called the six Qishan in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

In the real history, Zhuge Liang did not go out of Qishan six times, Zhuge Liang carried out a total of five Northern Expeditions, the first few times were to take Qishan, and the last time was to take the Baochuan Road directly across the Qinling Mountains, and confronted the Wei army in Wuzhangyuan.

Originally, Zhuge Liang was ready to fight a protracted battle with the Wei army in Tuntian, near Wuzhangyuan. However, Zhuge Liang finally died of illness on the way to the Fifth Northern Expedition, and although Jiang Wei also insisted on the Northern Expedition, the strength and results of the Northern Expedition were not as good as those of Zhuge Liang.

Shu Han has not been able to cross the Qinling Mountains after two generations of Zhuge Liang and Jiang Wei, which shows the majesty of the Qinling Mountains.

Because the Qinling Mountains are the dividing line between the north and south of China, the Qinling Mountains are long and high-altitude, and they are the barrier between Shu and Guanzhong in history, so it can be said that the Qinling Mountains are a battleground for soldiers.

Because it was in a very good location at the time. And the ancient capital of the thirteen dynasties sat beside him. That's why it's amazing.

Because many dynasties were born at the foot of the Qinling Mountains, the historical and cultural roots are very deep, there are many historical sites, and it is the place of yearning for literati and hermits in the past dynasties.

Where is Qinling?

The Qinling Mountains are at the top of China's territory.

Why is Qinling so important?

The Qinling Mountains are the dividing line between the Loess Plateau and the Sichuan Basin, the Qinling Mountains are the dividing line between the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, and the Qinling Mountains are the dividing line between wheat in the north and rice in the south. The Yangtze River, the Huai River, the Yellow River, and the Han River are juxtaposed, collectively known as the "Jianghuai River Han", and the Qinling Mountains are the boundary of whether there is a freezing period in China's rivers.

The temperature, climate, and topography of the north and south of the Qinling Mountains all show different changes, and the line from the Qinling Mountains to the Huaihe River has also become the most important north-south dividing line in China's geography. The Qinling Mountains were an important military barrier in Chinese history, and both the north and the south had to do their best to cross the Qinling Mountains in order to unify the whole country. This has also made the Qinling Mountains one of the mountains with the most war stories in Chinese history.

Xiyue Huashan is a part of the Qinling Mountains, and the "Hua" of "China" and "Huaxia" originates from Huashan. Before Qin Shi Huang unified China, the Qinling Mountains were called Kunlun, and it was not until Sima Qian's "Historical Records" that he wrote "Qinling, the great obstacle of the world", that the Qinling Mountains had an official written record.

The reputation of the Taoist culture "the world's first blessed land" Zhongnan Mountain is also a part of the Qinling Mountains, the Qinling Zhongnanshan Tunnel started in 2001 and was completed in 2007, with a total length of kilometers and a total investment of 100 million yuan, and the construction of the Qinling Zhongnanshan Tunnel saved 60 kilometers.

The Qinling Mountains are arranged very neatly from west to east, with steep cliffs and towering protrusions. The "just right" height of the Qinling Mountains, the main peak of Taibai Mountain, has the highest altitude of meters, and this height is just enough to withstand the cold current from the north. If the height of the Qinling Mountains was less than 3,000 meters, the geography of the whole of China would not be what it is today.

The Chinese dragon vein, Qinling deserves it! One of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty: Zhang Liang, it is rumored that he lived in seclusion in Zibai Mountain in the Qinling Mountains in his later years. It is precisely because of the Qinling Mountains that block the cold air in the middle that today's Sichuan is the land of abundance.

The Qinling Mountains belong to every Chinese son, and the rich Guanzhong region and the 800-mile Qinchuan River have achieved many glorious Chinese history. We are grateful to Qinling, our father mountain, and our dragon vein, let us witness the prosperity of the motherland together, and protect our Chinese dragon vein together.

Qinling, this majestic mountain range, has had countless stories for thousands of years, which is fascinating.

Why is it said that Qinling is the "dragon vein of Chinese civilization"?

The mysterious and famous Qinling Mountains are the birthplace of the brilliant Chinese civilization and the place that needs to be guarded by our Chinese sons and daughters, and now with the commemoration of ecological harmony and civilization development deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, we should protect this sacred mountain range that is of great significance from the historical, political and geographical perspectives.

The Qinling Mountains are not only the watershed of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, but also form the north-south geography of China together with the Huai River.

The location of the Qinling Mountains is very good, and it is very meaningful to divide several areas of China from the top and bottom to the left and right.

The Qinling Mountains are not only the dividing line between the north and the south, but also give birth to Chinese descendants in the places covered by the Qinling Mountains.

The boundary between the Qinling Mountains has also brought about great changes in the customs of the north and the south, both in terms of life rules and food and daily life.

Because the Qin Dynasty, the first unified royal dynasty in the history of our country, was established in the Qinling Mountains, so the Qinling Mountains can be said to be the witness of a generation of dynasties. In terms of Feng Shui, the mountains are long and long, much like the body of a dragon.

Made, isn't it Kunlun Mountain?

The Qinling dragon vein is known as the middle dragon among the three major dragon veins in Kunlun, which is of great significance. And what is even more special about the Qinling dragon vein is that it actually has two strongest dragon vein blood, which are the Yangtze River and the Yellow River. The mountain is the potential of the dragon, and the water is the blood of the dragon, so the dragon vein is inseparable from the mountain and the water.

At that time, Qin Shi Huang thought that Qinling was the place where he initiated, and believed that the tall Qinling Mountains gave him the power to unify the world. He said: "Qin is the spine of the world, and Nanshan is the back of Qin."

Since then, the Qinling Mountains have continued to this day, and the Qinling Mountains are not only the dividing line between the north and south of China, but also the watershed of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, with water from the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains flowing into the Yellow River and water from the southern foot of the Qinling Mountains flowing into the Yangtze River.

The Qinling Mountains actually represent two meanings, the first refers to the southern part of Shaanxi Province, the mountainous area between the Wei River and the Han River, bounded by the Bahe River and the Danjiang River valley in the east, and the Jialing River in the west.

The line from the Qinling Mountains to the Huai River is what we learned in the geography book of junior high school, which is the most important north-south dividing line in China's geographical location, and it also demarcates the northern and southern regions of our country.

As early as ancient times, Sima Qian was in his famous "Historical Records".

There is a record of Qinling in it, "Qinling, the great obstacle of the world". It can be seen that in ancient times, the ancients also realized the importance of the geographical location of the Qinling Mountains.

The ancient Qin Shi Huang had a deep affection for Qinling, he firmly believed that Qinling was the dragon vein, and even said that "Qin is the spine of the world, and Nanshan is the back of Qin". The Nanshan mentioned here refers to the Qinling Mountains, Qin Shi Huang always thought that it was because he was backed by the Qinling Mountains and absorbed the dragon qi in the mountains that he was able to dominate the world and become the king of the world, until after the death of Qin Shi Huang, he chose to be buried in the Qinling Lishan Mountain.
