武汉礼物 特色文化工艺品 黄鹤楼浮雕摆件
Yellow Crane Tower, located on Snake Hill in Wuchang, is one of the "Three Famous Towers South of Yangtze River (the other two: Yueyang Tower in Hunan and Tengwang Tower in Jiangxi).
Legend has it that in Wuchang, there used to be a wine shop opened by a young man named Xin. One day, a Taoist priest, in gratitude for free wine, drew a magic crane on the wall of the shop and instructed it to dance whenever it heard clapping. Thousands of people came to see the spectacle and the wine shop was always full of guests. After 10 years, the Taoist priest revisited the wine shop. He played the flute and then rode on the crane to the sky. In memory of the supernatural encounter and the priest, the Xins built a tower and named it Yellow Crane Tower.
According to records, the tower was first built in 223 A.D during the Three Kingdoms period (220-280). After completion, the tower served as a gathering place for celebrities and poets to party and compose poetry. It was estimated that up to the Tongzhi Reign of the Qing dynasty, as many as 300 poems about the tower had been found in historical literature. Cui Hao, a famous poet during the Tang dynasty (618-907), made the tower well known throughout China with his poem "Yellow Crane Tower".
Destroyed many times in successive dynasties, the tower was rebuilt time and again until 100 years ago when it was, for the last time, reduced to ashes. The present tower is a complete reconstruction and is the result of four years of work beginning in 1981. Where the old tower was only 15 meters wide, the ground floor of the new structure was increased to 20 meters wide. The tower, 51.4 meters high, is five-storied with yellow tiles and red pillars, overlapping ridges and interlocking eaves, more magnificent than the old one.
The new Yellow Crane Tower is regarded as the symbol of Wuhan city
黄鹤楼位于武昌蛇山之巅，自古与湖南岳阳楼，江西滕王阁并称为“江南三大名楼”。
黄鹤楼的神话传说故事给它蒙上了一层神秘的色彩，传说中蛇山黄鹤矶头上原有辛氏开设的一家酒店，一道士经常向其讨酒喝，为了感谢他的千杯之恩，临行前在壁上画了一只鹤，告之辛氏能下来起舞助兴。从此酒家宾客盈门，生意兴隆。过了十年，道士复来，取笛吹奏，道士跨上黄鹤直上云天。辛氏为纪念这位帮他致富的仙翁，便在其地起楼，取名“黄鹤楼”，相传此道士是八仙之一的“吕洞宾”。
黄鹤楼始建于三国时期吴黄武二年(公元223年),传说是为了军事目的而建,孙权为实现“以武治国而昌”(“武昌”的名称由来于此),筑城为守,建楼以了望。至唐朝,其军事性质逐渐演变为著名的名胜景点,历代文人墨客到此游览,留下不少脍炙人口的诗篇。唐代诗人崔颢一首“昔人已乘黄鹤去,此地空余黄鹤楼。黄鹤一去不复返,白云千载空悠悠。晴川历历汉阳树,芳草萋萋鹦鹉洲。日暮乡关何处是,烟波江上使人愁。”已成为千古绝唱,更使黄鹤楼名声大噪。
至唐永泰元年（公元765年）黄鹤楼已具规模，使不少江夏名士“游必于是，宴必于是”。然而兵火频繁，黄鹤楼屡建屡废。最后一座“清楼”建于同治七年（公元1868年），毁于光绪十年（公元1884年），此后近百年未曾重修。
1981年10月，黄鹤楼重修工程破土开工，主楼以清同治楼为蓝本，但更高大雄伟。运用现代建筑技术施工，钢筋混凝土框架仿木结构。飞檐5层，攒尖楼顶，金色琉璃瓦屋面，通高51.4米，底层边宽30米，顶层边宽18米，全楼各层布置有大型壁画、楹联、文物等。楼外铸铜黄鹤造型、胜像宝塔、牌坊、轩廊、亭阁等一批辅助建筑，将主楼烘托得更加壮丽。登楼远眺，“极目楚天舒”，不尽长江滚滚来，三镇风光尽收眼底。
