The description of the temple architecture and Buddha statues in the book is very detailed, making me feel as if I was actually there. Moreover, when I saw the Queen Mother excessively building temples because she dug up a gold statue, I also thought of the way some people around me are obsessed with certain beliefs. In short, this book not only allowed me to understand ancient history and culture, but also made me resonate and think a lot.
It is a very interesting book. It covers the local customs and customs of the late Northern Wei Dynasty. The text is concise and a few sentences outline a vast picture, leaving infinite space for future creations. It is worth reading.
Because teacher Cai Danjun reviewed "Fireworks Easily Cold", I came to read this book. I really wanted to understand Fang Wenshan's state of mind when he wrote the song. Unfortunately, my classical Chinese is a bit poor. I just finished reading this book in a hurry, but I still have a little understanding of the background of the times, which is a little better.
