为什么苏州本地人不去虎丘,先去寒山寺还是虎丘

虎丘的简介？

虎丘位于苏州古城西北5公里处，海拔36米，占地300亩。虎丘原名叫做海涌山，相传远古时期，这里是汪洋大海上的一座小岛，随着潮涨潮落，海岛时隐时现，如同被涌出海面，所以叫做海涌山。那后来为什么又改名叫虎丘了呢？要从春秋吴越争霸说起，公元前496年，吴王阖闾率军攻打越国，在檇李之战中负伤去世，他的儿子吴王夫差将其埋葬在海涌山上。相传下葬三日后有一只白虎蹲居其墓上，遂改名为虎丘。

2000多年来，虎丘人文历史积淀深厚，读懂虎丘等于读懂半部苏州历史。虎丘有“吴中第一名胜”“吴中第一山”的美誉，宋代大文豪苏东坡曾云：“到苏州不游虎丘，乃憾事也”。作为苏州的一个重要旅游窗口，虎丘屡获殊荣，先后被评为全国首批十佳文明风景旅游区示范点，国家AAAAA级旅游景区，全国文明单位。

虎丘有“江左丘壑之表”的风范，绝岩耸壑，气象万千，并有三绝九宜十八景之胜。“三绝”是指山势之奇、登眺之乐、剑池之幽。“九”宜是指宜月、宜雪、宜雨、宜烟、宜春晓、宜夏、宜秋爽、宜落木、宜夕阳。“十八景”中比较有名的是虎丘塔、虎阜禅寺、剑池、千人坐、断梁殿、试剑石、珍娘墓等等。不论春夏秋冬、不管阴晴雨雪，虎丘都会向你展示其独特的风景，让你的虎丘之行不留遗憾。
