古老的京杭大運河傍城而過。寧靜,整潔,清悠……她靜靜地生息在齊魯大地的一隅,青山和碧水包圍著她滄桑古老的面孔,記錄著她驕人的歷史?!八北闶侵摹斑\河之都”“孔孟之鄉(xiāng)”,中華儒家文化的發(fā)源地——濟寧。
早上漫步濟寧街頭,看人群車輛來來往往,人間煙火熾熱地?fù)涿娑鴣怼km沒有江南水鄉(xiāng)的如詩如畫,沒有塞北草原的一馬平川,也沒有五岳名山的高大巍峨,但她卻有著江北城市剛?cè)岵莫毺貍€性,以特有的淡泊和肅靜依偎在華夏的版圖里。如今的濟寧,作為中國優(yōu)秀旅游城市、山東省魯南城市帶中心城市,以她得天獨厚的地理位置、靈韻毓秀的歷史文化,如一顆璀璨明珠,在齊魯大地上熠熠生輝。
打開塵封的記憶,跨過悠遠的商周,來到了春秋戰(zhàn)國。有位智者選擇了周游列國,他打破了“學(xué)在官府”的傳統(tǒng)治學(xué)理念,在魯國創(chuàng)辦私學(xué),設(shè)立杏壇,聚徒講學(xué),傳授“六藝”,“誨人不倦”,傳播文化。他游走在齊魯大地,創(chuàng)立“重仁尚禮”的儒家學(xué)說,把中國文化推向一個高峰。
○興隆塔。Xinglong Tower.
這位智者,就是儒家學(xué)派的創(chuàng)始人——孔子。據(jù)傳,孔子弟子三千,學(xué)富五車,凝四海之智慧,儒家文化也從此屹立于中華民族的歷史上,并成為影響中國人最深的哲學(xué)思想。
濟寧的美,不僅有儒學(xué)的滋養(yǎng),更掩藏于歲月之中,輕輕一拂便當(dāng)即知曉。唐代詩人杜甫在開元二十五年(737年),同任城許主簿游南池留有詩作,可見在唐代,南池已是濟寧州的勝地,特別是到了夏天,滿池白蓮荷花,陣陣清香,空氣新鮮,天地純凈,令人心曠神怡?!澳铣睾蓛簟边@一景觀就是來源于此。如今的南池在濟寧市政府的大力支持下又進行了大規(guī)模修建,不僅風(fēng)景宜人,而且樓閣聳起,曲檻回廊,花木昌茂,松竹交翠。形成了南池歷史文化時間軸上的新亮點。
站在歷史瞭望角,仿佛看到“水路交會,南北要沖之區(qū);襟帶汶泗,控引江淮、灌運咽喉”的濟寧古運河,南北運輸?shù)拇辉诖司奂?,五方雜處帶來多元文化的交融,其中,被稱為“北朝最初名勝”“東土第一道場”的寶相寺就是文化交融的典型。
有人稱是大運河的乳汁養(yǎng)育了這片佛教圣地,相傳自東漢末年一個虔誠的居士來到這里,之后寶相寺在唐宋時期就成為了北方的佛教圣地;在宋朝時期,釋迦牟尼在此留下了圣潔的印記,于是漫長的歲月中,寶相寺都鐫刻著佛教的足跡,太子靈鐘塔也形成了運河之濱一道靚麗的風(fēng)景。
光陰如梭,古都新貌。如今的濟寧,不僅是一座充滿文化氣息的城市,一座充滿無限可能的城市,也是一座發(fā)展迅猛的城市。為了加快城市的發(fā)展,根據(jù)“東拓、西跨、南連、北延”的城市發(fā)展戰(zhàn)略,園林型新區(qū)——濟北新區(qū)正在籌建,可以預(yù)見,未來濟寧的發(fā)展將會越來越好。
○如今的濟寧,不僅是一座充滿文化氣息的城市,也是一座充滿無限可能的城市。Today's Jining is full of cultural atmosphere and infinite possibility.
立秋時節(jié),秋雨氤氳,煙霧揉皺了視線的縱深,無法極目,可此時的追想里充滿敬仰。古老的京杭大運河依舊靜靜地流著,艄公的號子已經(jīng)遠去,船上的白帆也不復(fù)當(dāng)年,運河中繚繞的聲響已成想象,車水馬龍和高聳的樓群,仿佛在提醒我們,曾經(jīng)的“運河古都”,只是停留在記憶中的遙遠歲月,而今,馬路邊的電動車穿梭不息,應(yīng)該都比當(dāng)年運河上的船快。
遠處,高速路;再遠處,高鐵。這些,都令這運河古都,生生不息,磅礴有力。

The ancient Grand Canal passes by the city. Green hills and clear water surround her vicissitudes of old faces, recording her proud history. She is Jining, the famous“Capital of the Grand Canal” and “the Hometown of Confucius and Mencius”and the birthplace of Chinese Confucian culture.
Walking in the streets of Jining in the morning, you may not find in her the poetic scenery of south of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, nor the boundless plains of the northern grassland, nor the height and loftiness of the Five Mountains. Still, she has the unique character of hardness and flexibility of a north-of-the-Yangtze-River city, existing in the territory of China with her quietness and solemnity.Today, Jining, as an excellent tourist city in China and the central city of southern Shandong urban belt, shines brilliantly on the Qilu land like a pearl with its unique geographical position and beautiful historical culture.
Today, Jining is not only a city full of cultural flavor, a city full of unlimited possibilities, but also a rapidly developing city. In order to speed up the development of the city, Jibei New Area,a garden type new area, is being built according to the urban development strategy of “expanding to the east,striding to the west, connecting to the south and extending to the north”. It is foreseeable that the development of Jining will be better and better in the future.
