Kaiyuan Temple Town State

Chaozhou Kaiyuan Town National Temple was built in the 26th year of Tang Kaiyuan (AD 738), originally named Kaiyuan Temple, but it was changed to Kaiyuan Town National Temple in the Ming Dynasty and is still in use today, but it is still commonly known as Kaiyuan Temple. According to legend, when the temple was first built, it occupied an area of 100 mu, starting from Guangyuan Street in the north, Kaiyuan Road in the east and Yi 'an Road in the west. Up to now, there are still temple boundary stones or "Kaiyuan Ancient Well" as evidence. Despite the vicissitudes of life, the whole temple still has a width of about 50 acres.

Jiadi lane

Jiadi Lane, located in the south of Chaozhou ancient city, has various typical residential architectural styles in Chaoshan area. It is very distinctive in architectural technology and art. There are colored porcelain inlays on the gable of residential houses, exquisite wood carvings and stone carvings on the eaves and columns, and the forms of gable roofs are "gold, wood, water, fire and earth" according to the orientation and layout of houses. The indoor floor of residential buildings adopts local traditional red bricks, and the paving of the indoor floor is also metaphorical, such as the sloping "human" shape in the hall, which means popularity and wealth; The bedroom floor is paved with staggered joints in the shape of "D", which means having a boy; The floor of the corridor is paved in the shape of "Tian", indicating that there are fields at home.

Guangji Bridge

Guangji Bridge is located in the east of Chaozhou. Guangji Bridge is one of the famous bridges in ancient China. It was built in the sixth year of the Southern Song Dynasty (1 170) and took 57 years to complete. The total length is 515m, and it is divided into two piers, east pier and west pier 18. The width of the middle section is about 100 meter. Due to the rapid flow of water, it is impossible to bridge, so we can only take a ferry.

In the tenth year of Xuande in Ming Dynasty (1435), it was rebuilt and five piers were added, which was called Guangji Bridge. During the period of Zheng De, another wharf was built, with a total of 24 docks. The pier is made of granite blocks, which is a precious heritage in Chinese bridge architecture. The middle section 18 shuttle boat is connected to form a pontoon bridge, which can be opened and closed. When large ships and rafts pass, you can untie the boats in the pontoon and let the ships and rafts pass. Then put the floating boat back in its place. This is the earliest stone bridge with movable switch in China and the world.

This bridge was overhauled five times in the Ming Dynasty, and there are 24 "watchtowers" (destroyed) with different shapes on the piers. In the first year of Yongzheng in Qing Dynasty (1723), two iron oxen were placed on the stone piers at both ends of the pontoon bridge, and the words "Town Bridge for Water" were engraved on their backs, but they no longer exist. 1958 due to traffic needs, the shuttle boat was dismantled and changed to a through bridge. 1980 heavy cast iron Niu Yi, put it on the bridge. As the folk proverb says, "If you don't reach the tide, you will go in vain." It is a waste of time to go to the bridge. "
