Brief introduction of Xi Ankun Mingchi

Kunming Pool in Xi is a special scenic spot with great scale and historical research value. There are too many ancient buildings and relics preserved here, and many tourists have great feelings for it. The rich elements of Chinese style are favored by tourists. This is a detailed tour guide map of Kunming Pool in Xi.

The largest artificial lakes in ancient China were Chang 'an City, Doumen Town and Kunming Pool in the southwest of Jin Ryu. It is about 4.25 kilometers long from east to west, 5.69 kilometers long from north to south, and the water area is about 16.6 square kilometers. How big is Kunming Pool?

Compared with a single area and volume, 16 square kilometers of Kunming Pool is equivalent to one and a half Xi 'an City Wall (12 square kilometers) and three West Lakes in Hangzhou (6.39 square kilometers). And the story behind it is also related to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: respecting Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty as a man, named Kunming Pool!

Sima Qian said in Biography of the Southwest that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent a special envoy to a poisonous country to collect bamboo in the city, but it was blocked by Kunming, so he wanted to levy Kunming. The state-owned Dianchi Lake in Kunming, 300 miles from Fiona Fang, is now a representative scenic spot in Kunming.

So Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty chose the land to divert water, and Yuanshou "made it through Kunming Pool" for three years to compete for water. The history of this pool is called Kunming Pool.

Visitors to Kunming Pool know that there are two stone statues in Kunming Pool, namely Cowherd and Weaver Girl, which stand on the east and west sides of the Pool respectively, symbolizing the Tianhe River. Another thing recorded in 755-79000 is that there are stone whales carved in Kunming Pool.

The length of a stone whale is 30 feet. In thunderstorm weather, the stone whale often growls and its bearded tail moves. Sacrificing this stone whale for rain in the Han Dynasty is often effective. Although these are all records in unofficial history, most of these exquisite stone carvings more than 2,000 years ago have been preserved by kind people, so that we modern people can feel the history and imagine the glory of Dahan dynasty while listening.

These two huge stone carvings of Cowherd and Weaver Maid are not in Kunming Pool Scenic Area, and now they are commonly called "Shi Ye Shipo" by local people. Among them, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl are enshrined in the Shipo Temple in the north of Changjiazhuang Village, Doumen Town, Chang 'an District, while the Weaver Girl is in a miserable situation in the bankrupt cotton mill in Doumen Town.

The distance between the two stone statues is about 3 kilometers, which should be the east-west width of Kunming Pool. At that time, Emperor Yuanshou of Han Dynasty dug Kunming Pool for three years. In addition to carving stone whales, there are two stone carvings of Cowherd and Weaver Girl in the pool. With the help of the legend of cowherd and weaver girl at that time, Kunming pool was compared to Tianhe.

The legend of Cowherd and Weaver Girl and Tanabata originated from astrological theory. As early as the Western Zhou Dynasty, "Cowherd" and "Weaver Girl" were recorded. In the Han Dynasty, the Weaver Girl and the Morning Glory were passed down as two gods, and the stone statue of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl in Chi Pan, Kunming was also honored as "Shi Ye God" and "Shipo God" by the local people.

In the 14th year of Zhenyuan in Tang Dezong, the Weaver Maiden Temple was built to offer sacrifices, and the incense continued for thousands of years. Later, Kunming was conquered and repaired several times. By the time Tangdahe arrived, the Kunming pool had dried up and turned into land.

After more than 2,000 years of historical changes, Kunming Pool has long been a fertile land, but the Cowherd standing in the east of Doumen Town Street and the Weaver Girl stone carving standing in the north of Changjiazhuang Village in Dongliuli Town accurately mark the east and west banks of Kunming Pool.

These two stone statues are more than two meters high. The Weaver Girl in Doumen Town Cotton Mill always frowned slightly, with a clear expression, a bun hanging behind her neck and a broken crack around her neck. The statue in Changle Village is badly weathered, and the facial outline is still there.

Large stone carvings in Han Dynasty are rare in China. These two stone carvings are the earliest known large-scale stone carvings in China, and their shapes reflect the simplicity and elegance of Dahan stone carvings.

It is reported that every year, Kunming Pool on Tanabata is crowded with people, and many people will go here to visit temple fairs and worship Shi Gong Shi P.

In order to implement the epidemic prevention regulations, the scenic spot has now implemented the time-sharing appointment mode. By limiting the flow, we can automatically open and close the reservation function of the remaining seats, do a good job in passenger flow control, effectively reduce the hidden dangers caused by gathering, and count, find, trace and check the travel information of tourists in a timely and orderly manner in strict accordance with epidemic prevention standards to ensure foolproof. When visitors enter the park, they must show the green code of "Xi 'an One Code Connect" or valid identity documents for registration, and keep a distance and measure the temperature before entering.
