Is there anyone in the Guanyin Pavilion in the center of the Yangtze River?

China's history is long and profound, and the Chinese have been smart since ancient times, whether it is ancient technology or ancient architecture, it is impressive. Friends who like history, of course, like to study the culture of Chinese architecture, it is also a very important channel to show our culture. The building I want to introduce to you today is an attic.

It is one of the dazzling pearls of our architecture, although it does not have a magnificent appearance, but its unique location attracts countless tourists who want to take a look.

This strong building is the Guanyin Pavilion in Ezhou. If you take a small boat to visit the Yangtze River in the Ezhou section, there is a bulge in the center of the Yangtze River with no end in sight. Up close, it turned out to be a giant reef with an old-looking attic on top.

This is the Kannon Pavilion. According to historical records, the Guanyin Pavilion was built in the Song Dynasty, rebuilt in the fifth year of the Yuan Dynasty (1345), and rebuilt in subsequent dynasties. The attic stands in the center of the Yangtze River, watching the Yangtze River roll forward day and night.

The Guanyin Pavilion has never collapsed here, like a mainstay. It is because it has been standing here for more than 700 years, and it also has the title of the first pavilion of the Yangtze River.

In fact, the Guanyin Pavilion is very knowledgeable in the construction, which highlights the power of the ancient architects of our country. The lower part of the Guanyin Pavilion deliberately creates a boat-like arc, which is conducive to reducing the impact of the water flow, and is the same as the form of the boat. The water of the Yangtze River flows along the water, and it is not easy to have an impact on the reef, so the Guanyin Pavilion has been able to survive until now.

Today, it is also a miracle that this loft has survived to modern times. Because of the special location of the attic, the reef has been eroded by the Yangtze River for more than 700 years. The most worrying thing is the flood season here in July and August every year, when the water level will be rapid**.

The river would overflow the reef and rush up to the first floor of the attic. The base of the Kannon Pavilion is made of wood, so it is easily eroded by the river. In addition, the internal walls will begin to fall off after being wet, and some places will become moldy and rotten, although the exterior will appear intact, but the inside will gradually deteriorate.

*There is no one in the Guanyin Pavilion in the center of the Yangtze River**. Guanyin Pavilion sits in the east and faces west, stands against the water, the pavilion is 24 meters long, 10 meters wide, 14 meters high, the base is made of a stone base, the pavilion body is built with blue bricks, it is a typical wooden frame structure pavilion type building, there is a pavilion in the pavilion and three halls on the second floor, the total area is more than 300 square meters, but no one lives.

The Yangtze River Guanyin Pavilion is in the Yangtze River outside the small east gate of the Ezhou City section of the Yangtze River. Ezhou Guanyin Pavilion, also known as "Longpanji Temple", is located in Hubei Province, Echeng District, Echeng District, Hubei Province, outside the Yangtze River Longpanji, was built in the fifth year of Yuan Zhizheng (1345). Guanyin Pavilion is a national key cultural relics protection unit, with a history of more than 700 years.

Ezhou Guanyin Pavilion sits in the east and faces west, stands against the water, the pavilion is 24 meters long, 10 meters wide, 14 meters high, the base is made of a stone base, the pavilion body is built with blue bricks, it is a typical wooden frame structure pavilion style building, there is a pavilion in the pavilion and three halls on the second floor, the total area is more than 300 square meters.

Ezhou Guanyin Pavilion is decently laid out, the construction is exquisite, the Zhu sill corridor, the heavy eaves fly the tree, shows the typical Jiangnan folk architectural art characteristics, and sets Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism and three religion cultures in one, this is the only one in the Yangtze River, so it is known as "the first pavilion of the Yangtze River".

Ezhou Guanyin Pavilion sits in the east and faces west, stands against the water, the base is made of a stone base, the pavilion body is built with blue bricks, it is a typical wooden frame structure pavilion style building, and your Excellency's Longpanji is integrated.

The curved stone wall of His Excellency Ezhou Guanyin is like the side of a ship, which not only slows down the water potential, but also discharges the flow of the water. Every time the flood tide comes, the water floods the pavilion, only the high-rise windows are left, and even only the eaves, dragon kisses, and middle pavilions are left in the water of the Yangtze River. As soon as the flood season passes, the water falls out, and it is born out of nowhere, Weizhen Jiangxin, showing the wonderful use of fluid mechanics and the unique style of creative art by ancient Wuchang craftsmen.

Traditional poetry: In his poem "Longpan Xiaodu", the Qing Dynasty poet Jiang Shu made a simple and intuitive description of the Guanyin Pavilion in Ezhou. How can the dragon lie down for a long time, but see the stone stay for a long time.

Where the cloud shadow is light sailing, the sound of the night ferry. Where is the question, a pillar of the mainstream.

The reason why Guanyin Pavilion can stand on the river for more than 700 years, naturally has its special reasons, in addition to its architectural structure, its building materials, building shape, geographical location and so on have an important impact.

The lower part of the Kannon Pavilion is an arc-shaped structure, which is a structure specially designed according to its location.

The biggest advantage of the curved structure is that it slows down the flow of water and reduces damage to the building when floods are coming.

Secondly, compared with the linear building, the structure of the arc that suddenly changes the direction of the line can repel the flood water that comes directly in front of it, making it difficult to enter the building.
