Philosophy related to the heritage

Interpreting Beijing Jiugukou Natural Scenic Area from the perspective of Eastern and Western philosophy, we can find that different philosophical thoughts have found resonance in this natural beauty. Eastern philosophy, especially Taoist philosophy, emphasizes "harmony between man and nature" and advocates the harmonious coexistence of man and nature. In Jiugukou Natural Scenic Area, this concept is vividly reflected. Mountains, rivers, and vegetation constitute a vibrant ecosystem where people can feel the rhythm of nature and experience intimacy with nature. The Taoist idea of "ruling by doing nothing" is also reflected in the protection of natural landscapes, allowing nature to grow and change in its own way without too much human intervention, which reflects respect for the laws of nature. Western philosophy, especially existentialism and phenomenology, emphasizes individual experience and existence. In Jiugukou Natural Scenic Area, every breath and every step of tourists is a profound experience of existence. Existentialism believes that people can truly understand their own existence through interaction with the environment. In nature, people can temporarily get rid of the shackles of society and experience a kind of freedom and liberation. Phenomenology focuses on people's direct perception of the world. The mountains, water, wind and clouds of Jiugukou are all objects of phenomenological research. They are not only external natural landscapes, but also a reflection of people's inner experience. In addition, Western aesthetic philosophy, such as Kant's aesthetic theory, believes that natural beauty is purposeless purposiveness, that is, natural beauty does not serve any practical purpose, it is a purpose in itself. The beauty of Jiugukou Natural Scenic Area is the embodiment of this purposeless purposiveness, which makes people gain spiritual pleasure and spiritual sublimation in appreciation. In summary, whether it is the "unity of man and nature" in Eastern philosophy, or existentialism, phenomenology and aesthetic philosophy in Western philosophy, they have found their practice fields in Jiugukou Natural Scenic Area, allowing people to experience the depth of philosophy and the beauty of life in the embrace of nature.
