Where is Yingcheng Park?

Yingcheng Park, also known as People's Park and Puyang Resort. Although the existing garden area is only 140 mu (including 40 mu of water surface), it is also small and exquisite, with elegant style, reasonable layout, endless charm, scattered buildings and colorful scenery. It is an elegant place for people to exercise and have fun in the morning and evening.

Yingcheng Park was built in 193 1, which was the only county-level park in central Hubei at that time. Located in the center of Yingcheng County, it attracts people from Xiaogan, Yunmeng, Anlu, Hanchuan, Jingshan and Tianmen to visit. Now, when you are in the guest room upstairs of Yingcheng Hotel, you can see the panoramic view of the park by leaning against the window.

In the ninth year of the Republic of China (1920), Li Jihong, Wang Yuzhi, Zhao Baomin and other famous people in the city proposed to build parks in the city to entertain the people and promote Pucheng civilization. Later, due to the difficulty in gathering funds and locating the park, the discussion was not decided. In the 14th year of the Republic of China (1925), when Chen Liufa returned, he learned that the construction of the garden was a good thing for the benefit of mulberry, so he actively rushed to plan, took the initiative to inspect the garden site and recommended the plan for building the garden. Finally, he chose a place adjacent to the Confucius Temple in the East Gate as the garden site, thinking that such a garden site has both natural scenery and humanistic characteristics. After many consultations, Chen is responsible for the overall planning of garden construction. After consulting Wu, the chief designer of Zhongshan Park in Hankou, he drew a blueprint for the park construction. But due to lack of funds, it is difficult to start construction in time. In the Republic of China 18 (1929), on the basis of previous donations, the preparatory meeting raised money from wealthy cave merchants such as Peng, Sheng Lanfang, Peng Youyan, Long Changtai. Together with donations from gypsum and salt companies and hammer industry associations, * * * raised 654.38 million yuan. After bidding, the project started in 19 (1930) after Ding Tianxing, the builder of Huangpi, won the bid. It took a year to build Yingcheng Park with a total area of about 220 mu (including 50 mu of water surface). It has a history of more than 70 years.

Yingcheng Park, according to the landscape characteristics of the park, stores water in the low place and builds a platform in the high place, which imitates nature and is superior to nature. Scenery is different from gardens. Gardens are beautiful because of their beautiful scenery, proper layout and unique style. The scenic spots in the park are well-known both inside and outside Hubei Province. But it didn't last long. Only seven years after the park was built, the Japanese invaders trampled on it. Japanese troops stationed in Japan turned the park into a training ground, trees were cut down and houses were destroyed. Except for the surviving Shui Ge Pavilion, other scenic spots and facilities were destroyed, and the park was in ruins. "The poplars fall early and the grass is old." "The same pool has been destroyed and the corner has been abandoned." "Listening has destroyed my heart" (Bao Zhao's Wu Cheng Fu).

1945 After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Yingcheng Park was renamed "Puyang Resort" and a new garden gate was built in the west of Jiexi. The "Sanxiang Garden" will be built every year, and cloves, Daphne odora in Phnom Penh and woody plants will be planted. At the same time, the wooden corridor was repaired. 1948, when the Jianghan Independent Brigade conquered Yingcheng, Yingcheng Park was regarded as a stronghold of tenacious resistance by the-army, and the war was raging, with corpses everywhere, and the park was a scorched earth.

After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), Yingcheng Park returned to the working people and was renamed "People's Park". Successive counties, municipal committees and governments have devoted great enthusiasm to the reconstruction of the park, invested millions of yuan, carried out nearly ten times of maintenance and expansion, and gradually built the park into its present scale.

The main entrance of the park faces the wide ancient city avenue, and the gate is an arched building with Chinese classical style, with cornices and arches, colorful paintings, and a gold plaque embedded with "Puyang Resort" is even more elegant and magnificent. There are also two woodcarving couplets that bring people into the scenic spot at once. It's really "spring is strong, Yan dances and warblers sing, autumn sounds sing, drums and frogs sing cicadas, and I have been to Qiu Lai several times in spring. Dacheng Hall, cypress and bamboo; Zhou Xiaoying, a waterfall and a flowing spring, is just a garden with a big view and a small view. "

Often at the foot of the ancient city wall and near the shore of the lake, it is a newly built cobblestone path. People walking on cobblestone paths can increase their leg strength and keep fit. People often walk several times along the path, the first day and the next day, which is repeatedly called "fitness road".

Shui Ge Pavilion, real name.

"Qin Qingting", the bottom of the first floor is painted with auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes surrounded by bats, and the two deer with gold thread embedded in the ground look at the picture. Standing on the pavilion, the breeze blows gently, the water waves are quiet, the trees are reflected on the water, and the scenery melts, which makes people feel great about Yingzhou.

Known as the "Kongchi" artificial lake, the lake is about 40 mu, and men and women are boating, playing and singing, singing and laughing. There is a mushroom-shaped pavilion in the east of the lake, and there is a lotus leaf bridge made of 13 cement components in Hanzhong, Hunan. To the northwest of the lake is a winding corridor built by the lake, where tourists can swim, sit still or overlook by the barrier.

Crossing the stone bridge, there is a pavilion with a corner of 16, which is called "Fenghua Pavilion". Tourists gather in the pavilion, or chat, or listen to the opera fans sing several episodes of Beijing Opera, Han Opera and Chu Opera, and the applause and applause continue. Across the street from Fenghua Pavilion, there is a wisteria promenade. The promenade is shaded by branches and leaves and full of fruits. Tourists take a nap in the gallery, which is cool, sweet and dazzling. There are several hills covered with green grass on both sides of things here, or children are rolling and playing on the lawn, or old people are lying on the grass, enjoying the warm sunshine and relaxing their bones and muscles.

The "Saint Gate" in the west of the Garden is a thousand-year-old Confucius Temple and a holy place for Confucianism. The inscription praising Confucius is still there, surrounded by cypresses and bamboos. In front of the "Shengmen", there is a flower bonsai garden, which is planted with all kinds of flowers and presents all kinds of flowers.

Yingcheng Park has become a leisure resort, a good mood and a fitness place for people. People can enjoy mountains and rivers, appreciate the beauty of gardens, enjoy the benefits of fitness, send out a sense of seclusion and ancient style, and inspire today's ambitions.
