Looking through history

What really made Yilan famous was the movie "Ao Lei Yilan" shot by the famous director Tang Xiaodan in the late 1970s. The story tells the story of the defense war against Tsarist Russia that took place in the Heilongjiang and Songhua River basins of northern Xinjiang in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The movie was written and shot in Yilan, and Yilan became famous at home and abroad.

However, when you walk into Yilan and look back at history, what is more famous than "Aolei Yilan" is the "Jingkang Disaster", when the Jurchens kidnapped and escorted them to Huli to change their way ( Today's Yilan City) the two subjugated emperors of the Northern Song Dynasty, Emperor Huiqin, "sit in a well and look at the sky", adding an unusual cultural color to this small town. He left behind many sad and tragic poems: "Looking back three thousand miles from my home mountain, I can see the wild geese flying in the south of the sky."

Perhaps history should not end like this, or perhaps it should not end here. The irresistible "Dragon Pulse" finally resumed its incense as the True Dragon Emperor after less than two dynasties. Mengge Timur, the sixth ancestor of Nurhaci in the Qing Dynasty, was born in Datun, Xima, Yilan City. No wonder Emperor Qianlong, when he secretly visited Sanxing (today's Yilan), said that "the sound heard here is three thousand miles north of the Great Wall, and the name spreads throughout the sixteen states in the south of the Yangtze River"!

Yilan is known as the Three Surnames in history, which is the Chinese translation of Manchu Yilan Hala. From the Tang Dynasty to the present, all dynasties have built cities and fortifications here. The Bohai Kingdom of the Tang Dynasty established the Delhi Prefecture in Yilan; after the Liao Dynasty destroyed Bohai, the Heishui Ge (late) Ge (Hue) was renamed Shengjurchen and established the Five Kingdoms Department. Yilan was the Yueli Ji tribe among the Five Kingdoms; the Yuan Dynasty established the Yueli Prefecture in Yilan. The Huli Gai and Wandoli Wanhu Prefectures were established; the Huli Gaiwei and Qing Dynasty deputy capital offices were established in the Ming Dynasty. They were under the jurisdiction of General Jilin and were in charge of the Ussuri River, Sakhalin Island, and the North and South Philippines in the middle and lower reaches of Heilongjiang. Vast territories such as the Yakhas Sea (today’s Sea of ??Okhotsk).

The meandering Waken River flows quietly. The ancestors of Yilan thrived here and opened up a precedent in human history. The Wokenhada Cave, discovered in 1950 and verified by archaeologists, is located on the hillside of Hada Mountain on the bank of the Woken River in the east of the county. It is about 85 meters high from the ground. The entrance is slightly southwest. The total length of the cave is 12 meters and is 5700-- It was the habitat of a family of ancient humans 6,000 years ago, and was later changed into a tomb. Precious cultural relics such as a squatting human skeleton, stone tools, pottery pieces, jade, production tools, stone axes, etc. were found in the cave. It is said that people held their knees and squatted in the mother's womb, so the ancients also adopted this posture when they died and returned to the belly of Mother Earth.

On the east bank of the Mudanjiang River in the south of the city, the provincial archaeological team excavated the ruins of an ancient village in the Han Dynasty in 1997. More than 500 kinds of bone tools, stone tools, pottery, iron tools and other precious cultural relics were unearthed. The history and culture of Yilan years ago provide strong evidence.

Contemporary Ylang-ylang

The ancient rivers have gone through vicissitudes of life, and the ancient stories have become dusty history. It is the hard-working and simple ancestors who built the cornerstone of Yilan's human civilization and carved the magnificent poems of Yilan's ancient civilization with fire and stone.

Climbing high and looking into the distance, Yilan is surrounded by mountains. Xiaoxing'an Mountains, Wanda Mountains and Zhangguangcai Mountains meet here. Yilan is surrounded by green water again. The Songhua River, Mudan River, Woken River and Balan River meet unexpectedly among the mountains. The clear Mudan River and the slightly turbid Songhua River have distinct latitude and longitude. Stop on the bank where the two rivers meet and look up to the west. You'll see vast mist, osprey flying, white sails, green grass and fresh flowers - as the sun sets in the west, the flaming river flowers will jump endlessly, as if they want to fall into your arms. At this time, people can't help but recite Bai Juyi's poem "When the sun rises, the flowers on the river are as red as the fire; when spring comes, the river is as green as blue, and I can't forget Jiangnan." The deep green mountains are lush and lush, condensed with infinite mystery, and the stories contained in the chest are naturally shocking to the past and the present. The mountains are muddy and lonely for the water, and the water is as quiet as the mountains. The thought came to mind: Although the two emperors of Huiqin, who had enjoyed all the glory and wealth in the world, left behind the hatred of subjugating their country, it was better to die in such a quiet environment with beautiful mountains and clear waters than to be wrapped in horse leather.

To the north of the county and on the south bank of the Songhua River, there are still ruins of the Five Kingdoms city walls from the Liao and Jin Dynasties. According to research, the city is rectangular, 850 meters long, 450 meters wide, and 2,600 meters in circumference. The existing city wall is about 2 meters high, about 5 meters wide at the bottom, and about 1.5 meters wide at the top. The site was designated as a provincial-level site in 1956 Key cultural relics protection units.

There are eight original temples in Yilan: Huoshen Temple, Niangniang Temple, Guanyue Temple, Caishen Temple, Laoye Temple, Dragon King Temple, Mosque and Ciyun Temple. It was destroyed one after another before and after the Cultural Revolution, but the existing temples are still tempting to stop and admire. Ancient buildings such as Sanheyuan and Siheyuan from the Manchu and Qing Dynasties are also well preserved. The mosque built in 1737 AD is a cultural and historical landscape in Yilan. At that time, the Muslim compatriots living in Yilan raised funds to build this holy place for chanting scriptures and gathering for festivals. The imperial court at that time was very concerned about the rise and fall of ethnic minorities in the border areas. Emperor Qianlong specially gave a dragon and phoenix coffin cover to the Yilan Mosque. Zuo Baogui, a famous patriotic general in the Qing Dynasty and Northeastern general, personally inscribed a giant plaque of "Kaitian Ancient Religion" on the mosque.

Compared with the mosque, Ciyun Temple is the most perfect ancient building complex among the existing temples in Yilan. This temple was built in 1928 by General Li Du, the anti-Japanese general and Yilan garrison envoy, for his sister Master Qinglian. The temple faces south from the north. The mountain gate is gorgeous and majestic. There are two floors of bells and drums inside. In the center are the Tianwang Hall, the Main Hall, the Sutra Pavilion and the Lecture Hall. The three halls are neatly arranged on a central axis from south to north, forming a balanced, symmetrical and rigorous architectural style. The majestic army in front of the Heavenly King's Hall is majestic, and the ancient willow trees hang low. The bright sunshine shines in the quiet temple. The clear brick paved corridor, vigorous pines and cypresses, unique pavilions, antique buildings and the soothing and melodious evening drums and morning bells make Ciyun Temple more and more quiet and mysterious. . Every temple fair held on the 18th day of the fourth lunar month attracts tourists from home and abroad. Temple fairs and opera performances make this place a beautiful tourist attraction in the eastern part of Longjiang.

Food culture

Yilan's food culture is very famous, such as traditional palace dishes, Snacks, three cakes (silk cake, pie, gluten cake), stone barbecue, especially the fragrant ylang-ylang game hot pot. It is said that the second emperor Huiqin was exiled here. Although he also brought a cook, the Jin people had orders and they did not dare to cook without permission. However, the two emperors could not get used to the half-cooked game cooked by the Jin people. Every time they ate, they were miserable, so the imperial chef re-cooked the food in a copper pot in the name of heating the food. The delicacies of the mountains and wild game are cooked in the copper stove, which has been passed down from generation to generation and has become a wonderful delicacy of Yilan.

Yilan people love to wear clothes and pursue fashion, mainly because "Yilan produces beauties". According to legend, the two emperors of Huiqin were kidnapped by the Jin people and brought with them three thousand beauties. For a time, the beauties were so beautiful that most of them lived among the people. Their descendants’ daughters’ families have thousands of charms and styles, which are natural. And it’s natural. There are many beauties in Yilan. It is common for them to dare to wear, love to wear, and advocate fashionable clothing.

The pronunciation of the local people's language in Yilan is pure and standard, the skills are used appropriately, and the personality is enthusiastic, forthright and polite. You cannot deny that it originated from the second emperor's Northern Prisoner and his palace nobles. The cultural collision between the north and the south caused by that great migration, and the profound historical and cultural heritage accumulated thereby, made this place famous both at home and abroad.

Culture is an immortal productive force. Standing on the ruins of the Five Kingdoms City, we seem to hear the long sighs of the two emperors lying in bed; looking for the empty wilderness of Oduoli City, we seem to I also saw the figure of a powerful nation marching south to fight bravely; so many red sleeves and furs, so many falcons and arrows. The warm wine and heroic songs of the past, as well as the fighting and iron horses, have been quietly lost in the meteors and clouds.

As for the most interesting place... you still need to see it yourself!
