Construction of Jinyang Ancient City Ruins Park

According to the current archaeological investigation and excavation data, the geographical characteristics of Jinyang city, which is high in the west and low in the east, have formed a disparity in the buried thickness of the cultural layer. The cultural layer of Jinyang ancient city gradually deepened from west to east, with the shallowest point being about 1.2 m and the deepest point in the east being 13 m. In addition, Jinyang City has been scoured and diverted several times by Yufengsha River in the north and Fenhe River in the west. In addition, it was seriously damaged by artificial water irrigation twice, resulting in some relics being buried deeply and no longer existing. In recent years, archaeological achievements are mainly within 20 square kilometers of Xicheng city wall, and important relics are concentrated in the west of Xicheng. Therefore, the construction of the site park takes the western part of Xicheng as the key site protection exhibition area and the eastern part as the restoration exhibition area.

1, Protection and Exhibition of Existing Cultural Relics

There are three remains on the ground: the Xicheng wall of Gucheng Ying Village, the southwest corner of Xicheng in Nanchengjiao Village, and two rammed earth building bases in Gucheng Ying Village.

The west wall of Guchengying Village and the southwest corner of Nanchengjiao Village are exposed all the year round, eroded by rain, collapsed and damaged. Combined with the anatomical elevation of the city wall and the anatomical ditch of the moat over the years, building facilities are built, and the method of on-site protection and display is adopted to let people know the phenomenon of the construction and repair of the city wall in past dynasties and intuitively feel the momentum of the moat.

2. Vegetation identification and display

At present, four areas of the west city wall of Jinyang ancient city have been identified through archaeological investigation and exploration. By planting flowers and trees in some sections, combined with signs, the urban layout structures such as city walls, roads, palaces, Li Fang markets, canals and gardens are identified, so that people can understand the grand scale of Jinyang City more intuitively.

3. Original Protection Exhibition

Excavating the identified important architectural relics, such as palaces, gates, roads and Li Fang District, can be protected and displayed by underground storage and improving the original site on the ground. For architectural sites that are more suitable for protection after going out, we can build protective sheds to protect them and show their original appearance.

4. Archaeological site publicity and display

In the ongoing archaeological excavation site, the methods of excavation, protection and exhibition are adopted. You can choose an appropriate area for tourists to visit the archaeological site, personally participate in archaeological work, produce interactive effects, and deeply feel the scientific mystery of archaeological work. At the same time, it combines the popularization of archaeological knowledge.

5. Set up signs for display.

In the places where important cultural relics have been unearthed and the trial excavation sites of important cultural relics, different types of display mark boundary markers that can reflect the characteristics of lots (points) are set up respectively. At the same time, set up special signs for ancient village names and ancient place names closely related to Jinyang City within the scope of the ancient city.

6. Restore the display

In the east of the city site, the cultural relics are buried deeply, and most of them no longer exist, so it is chosen as the restoration and exhibition landscape area. If archaeological investigation proves that there are no relics, related supporting building facilities such as catering, sightseeing, tourism and rest can be built. The building adopts modern equipment and must be consistent with the overall style of the ruins park. The architecture in the restoration era was dominated by the Tang Dynasty style.

7. Protection and Exhibition of Taiyuan County in Ming Dynasty

Located in the southwest of Jinyang Ancient City Site in Taiyuan County in Ming Dynasty, the urban area is completely superimposed on the ancient city site, which basically retains the organizational characteristics of Taiyuan County in Ming and Qing Dynasties and is also a continuation of Jinyang City's history. In the county town, the city walls are neat, temples abound, and old houses are everywhere. The existing Confucian Temple, Dongyue Temple, Guandi Temple, Jade Emperor Temple, dragon day Temple, and God of Wealth Temple all have certain scale and representativeness. Improve the cross street in the town and repair some buildings such as city walls, towers, pavilions, famous houses and shops. Meanwhile. Organize famous shops, temple fairs, festivals and other activities in combination with folk customs and intangible cultural heritage protection. While completely protecting ancient cities and famous towns, it will become the highlight project of Jinyang Ancient City Ruins Park.

8. Construction of Jinyang Museum

At the same time, the Jinyang Museum will be built around the ruins park of Jinyang ancient city, focusing on the protection and display of the original site. Exquisite stone carvings, specimens and cultural relics unearthed from the site over the years, strata and rammed nest specimens exposed during excavation and other rich relics are displayed, which fully shows the rich connotation of Jinyang history and culture.

9, the construction of special museums

For the tombs that have been unearthed and attracted worldwide attention, a tomb museum can be built for protection and display. Just like the soon-to-be-opened mural tomb museum of Wu 'an King (Xu Xianxiu) in Beiqi, the original site can be built and protected, and at the same time, the Beiqi tombs unearthed in Taiyuan can be specially exhibited. Important discoveries such as Zhao Qing's tomb and Sui Yuhong's tomb in the Spring and Autumn Period are displayed in special museums.
