What’s fun in Xing’an Lingqu?

Question 1: What’s so interesting about Lingqu? Lingqu is located in Xing’an County, Guilin. After getting off the bus, we walked along the channel outside the scenic area. The scenery on both sides of the strait is beautiful. It’s spring again, and the peach trees are red and the willows are green. It's very quiet and has a Jiangnan feel. The originally fun water street in Lingqu can't be visited because it's still spring and the water is relatively cold, so it's recommended to come here in the summer.

Take the "Guilin-Xing'an" express bus from Guilin Bus Station to Xing'an County. You can take bus No. 2 in the county to go directly to the scenic spot. Lingqu Water Street is worth visiting because of its history, but the tickets are too expensive, so it is recommended to just take an antique tour.

Raised in a boudoir, people don’t know it, so they can only describe Lingqu in this way. Lingqu is a scenic spot. A park has been built around Lingqu, which is generally visited by Guilin locals. There is a wonderful sense of time travel along the Ling Canal.

I think all rivers dug manually in ancient times are great water conservancy projects. Although they are not as huge as canals, they are at least dug manually. I didn’t come to Xing’an specifically for this purpose, but I went to Lemandi. You can take a look by the way

Question 2: Is Ling’an Canal fun in Xing’an? It’s only half a day. Ling’an Canal is also called Qinchu Canal and Xing’an Canal. . It was built in the 33rd year of Qin Shihuang (214 BC), and together with Zhengzhengguo Canal in Shaanxi and Dujiangyan in Sichuan, it is known as the "three major water conservancy projects of the Qin Dynasty". It is also one of the oldest artificial canals in the world. Lingqu Scenic Area is an ancient culture tourist area with ancient water conservancy culture as its core. The quaint gate of the scenic spot integrates the five major components of the Lingqu Water Conservancy Project (Tianping Dam, Huazui, Doumen, North-South Channel, and Water Release Scale).

Question 3: Is Xing’an Ling Canal in Guilin fun? Nowadays, the Lingqu Canal Scenic Area has what is commonly known as the Water Dividing Platform, which can be said to be the mainstay of the Lingqu Canal; the Lingqu Canal's hub project, the Big and Small Balances, which is used to retain and raise the water level so that water can be directed to the Li River through the channel; the Tombs of the Three Generals, Qin Di, Fei Laishi, Si Xian Temple and other scenery. The entire scenic spot is simple and elegant, and you can fully appreciate the artistic conception of walking on the Lingqu Road and enjoying Xing'an. In terms of its brilliant achievements in water conservancy construction alone, Lingqu canal is the oldest existing canal in the world. Its water conservancy engineering construction is the best in the ancient world and has high scientific connotation.

Question 4: Where is the fun in Guilin Lingqu Scenic Area? The Temple of the Four Sages

Located on the north bank of Nanqu about half a mile downstream of Nandou, it is a courtyard-style building with a pair of spiritual statues inside. He has made busts of Shi Lu, the censor of the Qin Dynasty, Ma Yuan, the general of Fubo of the Han Dynasty, Li Bo, the observer of Gui Guan of the Tang Dynasty, and Yu Mengwei, the governor of Guizhou. The Si Xian Temple is also known as Lingji Temple and Lingji Temple. There are different historical accounts of when it was first built. Qianlong's "Xing'an County Chronicle" records: "In the late Yuan Dynasty, Zhengyi, the deputy envoy who visited the Lian Dynasty, Ni'er Ji Nijian", Daoguang's "Xing'an County Chronicle" also recorded that in the fifteenth year of the Yuan Dynasty (1355), the deputy envoy of the Lian Dynasty visited Ni'er Ji Ni establish. However, Huang Shang, a person from the Yuan Dynasty, said in "Lingji Temple Records" that when Nierjini built the temple, there were already four sages' temples. However, because the original temple "was simple in appearance and could not be called a sacred place," Nierjini " "Remove the old and make the new, easy to humble and make the new", just renovate it. During the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty (1403-1424), the fifty-fourth year of Kangxi (1715) and the eleventh year of Yongzheng (1733) of the Qing Dynasty, the Four Sages Temple was renovated. On April 4, the second year of Xianfeng (May 22, 1852), the Taiping Army captured Xing'an, and the Si Xian Temple was burned down by fire. It was rebuilt in the 14th year of Guangxu (1888). It has two halls side by side with six bays, 24 meters wide and 11 meters deep. There are three walls on the east, west and north sides. There are 36 carved wooden doors on the south side. There is a gate tower in front of the west hall facing Lingqu. , with a construction area of ??280 square meters. After liberation, the foundation of the Si Xian Temple sank, and the wooden frame inside the temple was eaten away by termites and was about to collapse. The Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region allocated funds for reconstruction, which started on December 1, 1981 and was completed on April 30, 1985. The new temple has five bays, two floors above and below, 21 meters wide, 11 meters deep, 12.3 meters high, and the foundation is 4 meters deep. Corridors, housing, sales halls and east and west courtyard gates were added to the courtyard. The total construction area is 743 square meters, and the main building basically retains the original ethnic form.

In addition to the preservation of more than 10 square stone carvings from the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, the Four Sages Temple also has a large Double Ninth Festival tree in the courtyard, which swallows a stone tablet from the Qianlong period. The ancient tree swallowing the stele is a wonderful sight in the Temple of the Four Sages.

Feilai Stone

On the north bank of Lingqu, about half a mile west of Sixian Temple, there is a natural rock protruding from the embankment. It is slightly square in shape and flat as a stone. It is about 4 meters high and 20 meters in circumference. There is a four-season osmanthus plant on it and there are stone steps to climb up. On all sides of the stone wall, there are many stone carvings inscribed by predecessors. Legend has it that this stone is a fairy stone that flew from Mount Emei in Sichuan. When the canal was being built, there was a pig woman spirit here. The canal embankment was repaired during the day, but the pig woman spirit fell down at night, causing the construction of the canal to be delayed. The foreman was killed, the people were injured, and the flying crane immortal was killed. Then he flew the futon stone under his seat to calm the pig woman spirit, and the canal embankment was completed.

Tombs of the Three Generals

On the south bank of Lingqu Canal near Sujiaqiao are the sacred tombs of generals Zhang, Liu and Li Zhenguo in the Ming Dynasty. In the 56th year of the reign of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty (1791), in the year of Xinhai (1791), Ji Chunyue Shangshui Guanzhong and others erected a tombstone. In the 13th year of Daoguang (1833), the county magistrate Zhang Yunzhao built a stone and erected an inscription. The tomb is circular, about 2 meters high and 4 meters in diameter. The inscription on the tomb of the Three Generals, erected in the 56th year of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty, reads: "The Tomb of the Three Generals has a long history. His legacy is not recorded in detail. It is said that he had meritorious service in building embankments and was granted the title of General of the State. He died in Wuyi and was buried together in Shanyang, Northeast China. Three Gongs and one tomb are those who lived as good ministers at that time and died as gods of good fortune in later generations. Therefore, there are two temples in our city to worship them. Although there are inscriptions on their tombs, the details are not mentioned. We couldn't bear to sit back and watch, so we rebuilt the standing stone to immortalize it, and our city's prosperity will last forever."

Wanli Bridge

On the Lingqu in Zhongshuiguan, Xing'an County. It was the only way to travel between north and south in the past. It is said that the bridge is about ten thousand miles away from the waterway of Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, so it is called Wanli Bridge. It was built by Li Bo, the observer envoy of Gui Guan, during the construction of Ling Canal in the first year of Baoli in Tang Dynasty (825). There was no pavilion on the bridge originally, it was a rainbow-style single arch with only one layer of axe-blade stone pavilions. The stone strips on both sides of the bridge were installed later. In the eighth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1375), the county magistrate Zeng Kongchuan built the pavilion and restored the bridge. The bridge pavilion was rebuilt in the ninth year of Chenghua (1473). In the twelfth year of Chenghua and the third year of Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty (1725), the bridge pavilion was rebuilt. During the Jiaqing period, the pavilion was destroyed by fire and was restored and repaired. In the 33rd year of the Republic of China (1944), Dongting was destroyed by fire. In 1964, the Xing'an County People's Revolutionary Committee rebuilt the Wanli Bridge as it was. The original bridge deck was 7.45 meters long, the north (east) bridge was 9 levels, the slope was 3.7 meters long, the south (west) bridge was 7 levels, the slope was 3.4 meters long. It is 4.5 meters high and 6.05 meters wide. The bridge arch radius is 3 meters. After reconstruction, the bridge deck is 6.25 meters long and 6 meters wide. The north (east) bridge has 11 levels and the slope is 4.5 meters long. The south (west) bridge has 9 levels, the slope is 3.75 meters long and the bridge arch radius is 3 meters. In 1985, the county people's government built a bridge pavilion with antique reinforced concrete structure, glazed tiles and four roofs, with a cost of 15,000 yuan.
