What are the historical and cultural allusions in Xiaguan District of Nanjing?

The first thing that reminds people of the history and culture of Xiaguan District is probably the Ming City Wall.

There are still 22 kilometers left in the 33-kilometer-long Ming city wall, which is the longest city wall belt in the world, regardless of the reserved length or the total length of 33 kilometers, and its cultural and academic value is immeasurable.

After the wall protection work of Taicheng, Crescent Lake, Zhonghua Gate, Yuejianglou, Xiaotaoyuan and East-West Trunk Road was completed one after another, the comprehensive improvement of the environment outside the Ming city wall was basically completed. Between the reserved sections of the city wall, between the city wall and the city river, the beautiful scenery and the city wall with a unique sense of history complement each other, and together with the scenic belt of the ruins park, the shape of the city wall has become a green ring of nearly 30 kilometers.

The protection of the Ming city wall is only a microcosm.

Tianfei Palace, Jinghai Temple and Yuejiang Tower ... these outstanding cultural treasures with a long history have been passed down and carried forward under the careful care of Xiaguan people.

Xiaguan District is rich in cultural resources and is moving towards a "cultural region".

For example, Yuejianglou Scenic Area is adjacent to the Yangtze River, including Yuejianglou, ancient fort, Sun Yat-sen Yuejiang and Jinghai Temple. It is a national 4A-level tourist attraction.

Another example is Lion Mountain, formerly known as Lu Longshan, which is 78 meters high and 2 kilometers in circumference. Known as the "Lion Mountain", it is one of the 48 scenic spots in Jinling.

Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, defeated Chen Youliang's 400,000 troops with 80,000 troops in Lulongshan, laying the foundation for the Ming Dynasty to make Nanjing its capital.

After Zhu Yuanzhang proclaimed himself emperor, he renamed Lu Longshan Lion Mountain, ordered the construction of Yuejiang Tower on the top of the mountain, and personally wrote "Yuejiang Tower".

Yuejiang Building was rebuilt on 200 1 and opened to the public. The building is 52 meters high and has 7 floors in total. With distinctive Ming style and classical royal style, it is one of the four famous buildings in the south of the Yangtze River.

Boarding the Yuejiang Tower, you can have a panoramic view of the river, which is refreshing.

Looking back at the river, Jinling has a panoramic view.

This kind of historical treasure is different in Xiaguan District. Wise Shimonoseki people realized and made full use of this advantage. While building a new riverside city, they also inherited and carried forward excellent cultural traditions.
