The Yuelu Academy, a thousand-year-old academy with picturesque scenery.

Transportation: Metro Line 4, Hunan University Station. Tips: Be sure to make a reservation in advance. You can make a reservation two days in advance on the mini program. The academy is more vivid with an explanation. The back garden where Quzi Temple is located is really picturesque, so don't miss it. Yuelu Academy was founded in 976 during the Northern Song Dynasty, located at the foot of Yuelu Mountain. Yuelu Mountain has been a cultural mountain since the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Yuelu Mountain was originally called Lushan, and it was named "Yue" because it was a branch of Mount Heng, and it was only worthy of being written as "Yue." Yuelu Academy is divided into two parts, the academy on the central axis and the Confucius Temple on the right. The academy is historically famous for the "Zhu Zhang Lecture," and the grand occasion at that time was that the water in the horse drinking pool in front of the academy was drunk dry by the horses of the students who came to study, and "Hexi Terrace" is a tribute to this history. In modern times, it is well known that the great man once lived here, and because of the plaque of "seeking truth from facts" in front of the lecture hall, he brought the style of seeking truth from facts into the party. Although the Confucius Temple on the right side of the academy is relatively small in scale, it is not lacking in style. However, the best thing to photograph is the garden at the back door of the academy, with small bridges, pools, long corridors, ginkgo trees, bamboo forests... Every place is full of poetry, and "Swen Zai Ci" is the best interpretation of the whole garden. There is a golden house in the book, there is a beautiful woman in the book, and there is a picturesque scenery in the book.
