Interpretation of Nuanquan Ancient Town from the Perspective of Eastern Philosophy In Eastern philosophy, especially Chinese philosophy, Nuanquan Ancient Town can be seen as the embodiment of the concept of "harmony between man and nature". The layout of the ancient town, the harmonious coexistence of architecture and natural environment, reflects the idea of pursuing harmony with nature in Taoist philosophy. Every brick and tile, every water system in the ancient town seems to be telling the dialogue between man and nature, reflecting the philosophical idea of "Tao follows nature". At the same time, the history and culture of the ancient town, such as intangible cultural heritage such as paper-cutting and tree flower beating, show the importance of historical inheritance and cultural continuation in Confucian culture, and emphasize the social value of "benevolence" and "etiquette". Interpretation of Nuanquan Ancient Town from the Perspective of Western Philosophy From the perspective of Western philosophy, Nuanquan Ancient Town can be interpreted as the embodiment of "existentialism" and "phenomenology". Existentialism emphasizes the existence and freedom of individuals. Every household and every alley in the ancient town carries the personal stories and history of residents, reflecting the sense of existence of individuals in the long river of history. Phenomenology focuses on the direct experience of things. Every landscape in Nuanquan Ancient Town, whether it is the quaint buildings or the simple folk customs, invites tourists to directly experience and feel the "essence" of the ancient town. This experience goes beyond the superficial sightseeing and touches the deeper culture and history. Comprehensive interpretation Whether it is the "unity of man and nature" and "benevolence and etiquette" in Eastern philosophy, or the "existentialism" and "phenomenology" in Western philosophy, Nuanquan Ancient Town has demonstrated the intersection and integration of different philosophical thoughts with its unique charm. The ancient town is not only a witness to history, but also a carrier of philosophical thinking. It allows us to deeply think about the relationship between man and nature, history and culture, and individual and society while enjoying the beautiful scenery.
