摘要
桂林不仅拥有甲天下的山水名胜和凭依自然山水兴造的古代城市建筑,而且拥有早自南朝下至明清与民国的历代摩崖石刻、壁书1643件、造像602尊。这些千百年来积淀起来的石刻壁书和造像与桂林自然山水名胜相得益彰,具有历史悠久、代有佳作、内容丰富、涉及广泛、分布普遍的特点,拥有极高的历史与文化艺术价值,值得深入研究。在此基础上,应加强对摩崖石刻的管理与保护。
Guilin is famous for not only its beautiful landscape and ancient urban construction, but also its cliff carvings and stone sculptures. According to the investigation by the government, there are 1643 cliff carvings and 602 stone sculptures which were made during the period from the South Dynasties to the KMT reign. Those cliff carvings and stone sculptures are rich in contents with many masterpieces of every dynasty, concerning many aspects of social life. They offer us many rare materials from which we can have better understanding of the ancient politics, economy, culture and nationality relations in Guangxi and even in China. The cliff carvings and stone sculptures are distributed in more than 20 caves in Guilin City in harmony with the landscape. As an organic part of Guilin＇s history and culture, they are the cultural heritages rarely kept in South China. Since the 1950s, the rapid development of Guilin city has been challenging the protection of those cultural heritages. For their great value in history and culture, more study should be made on those lithoglyphs, and measures should be taken to improve the management and keep them well.
