Chapter 62 Boya Tower

Peking University is famous for its Yita Lake Map.

That lake is naturally the Weiming Lake.

That tower refers to the Boya Tower located next to Weiming Lake of Peking University.

The location of Boya Tower seems ordinary, but it is also a unique and ingenious arrangement and careful consideration by the designer. Its high tower body can make beautiful figures from different angles appear on the campus. The tower itself can be said to be a work of turning stones into gold. As an indispensable structure for campus water supply, if it is not handled properly, it may be a big loss of scenery. This water tower uses the commanding terrain and uses a special treatment method in the scenic area to adopt clever architectural shapes for the structure.

Turning disadvantages into benefits and becoming a masterpiece with a high degree of unity of three aspects: use function, artistic shape and environmental coordination. If you follow the spiral ladder upwards, you can reach the top of the tower. From the distance, you can see the beautiful scenery of the West Mountain in Beijing, making you feel open-minded; looking down, you can see Cheng Lake like a mirror, and the shadow of the tower appears, and the clear waves can bring endless poetry. The beautiful shadow of Boya Tower in Weiming Lake is deeply imprinted in the hearts of students of Peking University. No wonder Peking University calls the landscape here "Lake Light Tower Shadow".

The towering Boya Tower, the pine and cypress around it, and the rippling Weiming Lake form a major landscape of Yanyuan. Due to the clever building location, it is seen from within and outside Peking University, from between beams, pillars, and ancient trees, which adds a bit more beautiful and magical. Boya Tower is like a weather-beaten old man, standing silently by the lake, looking at the changing wind and clouds. The locked tower gate is like the old man's closed heart, containing the long years of life.

The combination of the lake and tower is the divine stroke of Weiming Lake. It is always philosophical and always intriguing. It can be said that the shadow of the lake light tower has become an immortal myth in the scenery of Yanyuan. Lake and tower have souls. Their souls are the souls of thousands of Peking University students and the spirit of Peking University. Boya Tower has absorbed the wisdom and spirit of thousands of Peking University students. Its status in Peking University has far surpassed the tower itself. If Weiming Lake is the eyes of Peking University, then Boya Tower is the bright pupils. The word "Boya" condenses the most immortal totem among Peking University's souls. Many Peking University students often write in their true feelings: "The school has Boya, and the tower has souls." This spirit is the "Boya" of Peking University and Peking University's "Ya".

It is said that there are some interesting things about the construction of the Boya Tower of Peking University. No one expected that the Boya Tower that was to be built at that time would be so famous in the future.

In July 1924, in order to supply water to the whole school, Peking University (now the territory of Peking University was once Yanjing University in Siyad) urgently needed to build a water tower. At that time, someone suggested that an ancient tower should be built in the classical building complex in Yanyuan to coordinate with the scenery of Weiming Lake. This suggestion was quite controversial at that time, because the ancient tower was mostly built in temples in ancient China, and whether it was suitable to be built on the school campus was still a question. Later, Yan University solicited opinions from the celebrities of the time, and only after they were agreed upon to establish a tower-style water tower. Times have changed. Today, a controversial suggestion at that time has made an eternal classic in the highest academic institution in China. The water tower is empty, but there is water on the upper and lower floors. From now on, no building at Peking University can be higher than the Boya Tower, because Boya Tower is a symbol of Peking University!

Boyata became a symbol of Peking University, which no one at that time expected.

The famous poet Li Lu, born in the 1970s, wrote a poem about Weiming Lake, Peking University. The name of the poem is "Weming Lake, Peking University".

I like standing on the island in the middle of the lake and listening to your Boeing

Never cared about Rusting not leaving my smile

Because of enjoying your shimmer

I had fantasized that I became a goldfish, a water lily and a boya tower

In your big u-shaped arms

I realized my ignorance and insignificance

I like to wander around the curved shore and enjoy your pretty shadow

Never cared about the stone boat not printing my footprints

Because I love your ocean

I once dreamed that I turned into a bell pavilion, Linhuxuan and Flower Temple

In your weathered history

I remembered Qianlong Heshen and the Qing Dynasty

Lin Yu walked while looking at Boya Tower in the distance.

At first glance, Boyata gave Lin Yu a word - Gao.

Lin Yu was both excited and a little moved when he looked at the spirit and symbol of this first institution in China.

Lin Yu deeply regretted that he had not become a member of this school in his previous life. Since he was here, he would not seek to be vigorous and vigorous, but he could not be as deserted as his college career in his previous life.

"Boyata, Weiming Lake..." Lin Yu remembered the last sentence in Li Lu's poem, shook his head, and laughed in silence.

"Mr. Lin, what's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Liang Shiqi asked in confusion when she saw Lin Yu shaking her head.

"No, no, I just thought of something and found it a bit funny.

"Oh? Let's talk about it." Liang Shiqi said interested.

Lin Yu looked at the Boya Tower in the distance and said with little emotion: "Weiming, Boya and Peking University, in your weathered history, I remembered Qianlong and Heshen and the Qing Dynasty."

Weiming, Boya and Peking University, Qianlong and Heshen and the Qing Dynasty.

The scenery of Peking University, the history of Peking University.

As a top student at Peking University, Liang Shiqi certainly knows the history of Boyata, Weiming Lake and Peking University. However, this is the first time Liang Shiqi has heard of them.

After listening to Lin Yu's words, Liang Shiqi couldn't help but look at Boyata in the distance. Her tall appearance looked like an old man, telling her life.

After looking for a while, Liang Shiqi turned her face to look at the boy in front of her. This boy with a young, but deep eyes was as if wrapped in it, making people unable to see clearly and curious.

But the girl doesn't know that when a woman becomes curious about a man, there will always be some stories and an ending, which may be happy or sad, but I don't know what the ending will be if it is just once?

Liang Shiqi didn't know that she had already been destined to be the ending by God, and no one could break free.

No matter how hard you struggle, it will make the story more twists and turns, making the ending more tragic or touching.
