Yuzhou town tourist attractions

In the southwest corner of Nanguan, an ancient town, there is one of the most important avenues for Buddhist activities. According to Yu Zhou, during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, Yu directed the expansion of the city, demolished Nan 'an Temple in the city, and later expanded the temple in Nanguan to today's temple.

The Hall of the Great Hero in the temple was built in the Yuan Dynasty, which basically maintained the architectural style of the Yuan Dynasty. It is resplendent and magnificent, and has the reputation of "the first hall in western Beijing". The main hall is built on a brick platform, with steps at the front, back, left and right, and a large plaque of "Huaxiaolou" is hung above the door of the hall. Smile at Flowers is a Buddhist story. It is said that Sakyamuni held a flower while giving a lecture in Lingshan, and no one could understand its meaning. Only the big disciple smiled and realized the true meaning of Buddha. Later generations used this code as a symbol, but I felt the harmonious heartbeat of the sacred unicorn.

Out of the back door of the main hall, down more than ten steps, is the reclining Buddha Hall. Named after the wooden reclining Buddha statue of Sakyamuni Buddha in the temple.

Shi Jia Temple is a famous ten-square Buddhist temple in Yuxian. The temple has an abbot, who can open the altar and give precepts. It is rare to name a temple after a Buddha in China, so its significance and status are extraordinary. Shi Jia Temple, as a famous temple in Yuzhou, is well known. It has become a gathering place for eminent monks and learned monks, and it has also attracted dignitaries and literati from all previous dynasties to visit here and wrote many poems. In the Ming Dynasty, Xu Songnian spent the night in Shi Jia Temple, talking with abbots Chen Jie, Ruiting, Maocai and others, and felt the same way. He wrote this poem "... white hair listening to the rain, green hills like Shimada Hanzo clouds, moss nowhere to see, incense burning for the Buddha, opening the sky in the west, slightly happy." Nan 'an Temple Tower is one of the most famous cultural relics in Yuzhou Town. It was announced by the State Council as the fifth batch of national key cultural relics protection units in 200 1 year.

Nan 'an Temple Tower is a flat octagonal, solid 13-story brick tower with dense eaves. It is about 32 meters high, and the tower foundation is built in the form of a stone fence. It is 2.5 meters high and has a brick tower foundation on it. The tower is octagonal, with animal heads carved on all sides, and the other four sides are sealed with the words "Fu and Lu". Brick eaves are built on the tower foundation, lotus petals are built around the eaves, and the tower body is placed in the lotus petal base. The first floor of the tower is higher, and there are tower-shaped columns at the corner. Brick coupons are placed in all directions, with fake doors. The door ticket is embossed with two dragons playing with pearls, and the other four sides are provided with small windows, carved lattices and a bucket arch. There are thirteen layers of dense eaves above the bucket arch, and the tower eaves overlap closely without doors and windows. But there is a bronze mirror in the middle of each floor, east, west, north and south. The eaves of the tower are indented step by step, and the output is increased step by step, so that the outer contour of the tower presents a gentle rolling brake shape, and iron stalks are hung on each octagonal cornice. The breeze is blowing, the bells are jingling, and if the mountains and rivers are flowing, the lingering sound is melodious. The pagoda is made of iron and supported by a brick carving covered with lotus flowers. It consists of a bowl cover, a phase wheel, a round lamp, a rising moon, a treasure bead and a treasure cover. There are also decorative components such as flying cranes and iron priests under the wheel. The whole tower is seamless and very tall and straight. Looking from a distance, it stands tall and ethereal.

There is a tower courtyard under the tower, which was rebuilt in the forty-five years of Qing Emperor Kangxi. The courtyard is about17.4m wide from east to west and 24m wide from north to south. The gate is located on the west side of the gate tower, with a single-eave hard roof, and the bucket arch is a third-order bucket arch, with the first four flowers and the last four flowers. The main hall is three rooms wide and two rooms deep, with a large-scale hard roof and three-step arches. There are eight stigma families and 18 flat family, and there is a main meditation room on each side of the main hall. The two lower meditation rooms in the east and west are both hard-mountain boudoir roofs (now rebuilt), and the Nan 'an Temple Tower is located in the south of the Tayuan. The overall shape of this tower is very beautiful. The tallest sumitomo in the building, the exquisitely carved tower body, the 13-story eaves and the huge and exquisite pagoda temples have formed artistic images of light weight, length and density, which have received seamless and elegant artistic effects in architectural art. The Nan 'an Temple Tower was built in the Northern Wei Dynasty and has been rebuilt in successive dynasties. When Yuzhou City was expanded during the Hongwu period of Ming Dynasty, the South City Wall passed through the middle of Nan 'an Temple, and the temple was demolished. However, according to the structure and shape analysis of Nan 'an Temple Tower, the existing buildings should be Liao Dynasty. Although this pagoda has experienced vicissitudes, it has become a symbol of Yuxian's ancient culture. Yuzhou Mayor's Warehouse is a rare granary of Ming Dynasty in the history of China, located on the west side of Gulou in Yuzhou Town.

According to the Records of Yuzhou, "The long warehouse is located in the west of Gu Lou, formerly known as Fengyucang. Daoguang rebuilt 55 rooms on the 11th floor, with 35,000 stones in Canggu, 10,000 stones in Yuxian Valley, 14,453 stones in Pioneer Valley and nine spoons in Pioneer Valley. After years of moldy wear and tear, the valley has been replenished by 3500 stones, and now it is short of 6398.

Official warehouse, which usually buys grain at a high price and sells it at a reduced price in famine years, is called "Hengcangguan" and has become a fixed system since the Song Dynasty.

Changcang, commonly known as Beicang, is 70 meters wide from east to west and 1 10 meters long from north to south. It is surrounded by walls and covers an area of about 7,700 square meters. The warehouse is majestic and long-term, so it is called "normally closed position". It's embarrassing to sit in a heavy warehouse facing south and sit on the other three sides. There used to be eleven single warehouse buildings in Changping warehouse, but today there are only four, two warehouses (East Warehouse and West Warehouse); Er ao (east and west), there is also a temple and a theater.

The Tibetan Temple and Theater are located in the north central part of the courtyard, with a main warehouse on the left and right. The two warehouses are located in the south of 100 meters, one in the south of the courtyard and the other in the east of the courtyard. In the early 1980s, the newly-built "Wan Defu Restaurant" demolished a warehouse on the south bank, and the locations of other warehouses destroyed in earlier years were unknown.

(1) Tibetan Temple

Cangsi Temple is also known as the God of Sorrow and Guan Cang. According to legend, Han Xin, the founding hero of the early Han Dynasty, or his descendants thought that this god lived in the grain depot, so he often set up a shrine next to the grain depot in the barn. The temple in the warehouse faces south and is integrated with the theater. It is also called one hall and one roll, or hook-shaped, with three rooms wide and five rooms deep. Cangsi has five beams, front and rear single-stage corridors and nine rafters as a whole.

(2) Dongcang

Sitting facing south, five rooms are wide and four rooms are deep. The roof is covered with hard mountains and tiles. The wall of the front porch is brick, and the roof is hung with a windy skylight. The window is covered with a small net made of reed mats. Sparrows can only stick their heads in, but can't get in. The beam frame is dominated by the bucket-piercing structure commonly seen in the south, supplemented by the beam-lifting structure, with a single-step corridor in front, a golden terrace beam frame and a double-step corridor behind it. There are two thick and tall wooden doors, three square doors, three walking boards on the door, and Ming sparrows on both sides of the colonnade.

The east and west gables are made of bricks, with obvious dots, and the upper part of the head overlaps the eaves, and moonkin is mixed. The wall is 1 m thick, and there are two ancient copper coin ventilation holes at the top of the gable.

Next time, a few rooms have square ventilation holes at the lower part of the front wall, which is also called ventilation. The warehouse floor is higher than the ventilation. Ventilation is a tortuous route indoors, and the indoor floor is half empty. Today, the ground is still very dry, while the ground of other houses in the ancient city is wet, which has played a good role in preventing moisture and corrosion.

The wooden frame is painted without oil, and the carving is simple, which is quite different from the gorgeous, exquisite and complicated architectural style of temples and houses.

When Changping warehouse was founded, there was a lack of records in local chronicles. From the existing historical materials and buildings, through analysis and speculation, we can make a judgment. Cangsi recorded in the Records of Yuxian Temple: "Cangsi is located in the west warehouse of Qiaolou (Drum Tower) and was built in the first year of Yongle in Ming Dynasty. It is recorded that Cangmiao Temple was built in the first year of Yongle in Ming Dynasty, and Cangao should have been built at this time, or earlier. Comparing the buildings of Cangmiao and Cangao, it is reasonable to have Cangao first and then build Cangmiao from the overall planning and layout to the specific practices.

As a rich warehouse, it is easy to close the position in the future. It has a history of more than 600 years since it was first built in the Ming Dynasty. After several wars, the dynasty flourished, but its function and nature never changed.

Yuzhou has the reputation of Rice River in history, and is rich in Gong Mi. The warehouse is full of millet, and the distance is appropriate. A good year is to buy by quantity. In case of disaster, the local government put rice according to the disaster, and its aged millet became as white as rice. Although the food is tasteless, I don't know how many victims have been rescued and how many times I have helped to tide over the difficulties. Therefore, the historical value, historical significance and historical function of continuous liquidation contain very rich historical information and scientific value.

The cultural relics preserved in the ancient town can prove the prosperity of Yuzhou during the Northern Wei, Liao, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. Especially in the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, most of the goods from Beijing, Tianjin and Baoding were transferred from Yuzhou to southern Shaanxi and Inner Mongolia because the Flying Fox Road in Guyuzhou was the main throat leading to the fortress. Therefore, Yuzhou at that time had a large population, developed handicrafts and commerce, and achieved unprecedented prosperity in culture, art and religion. People in Yuzhou Town have gone through thousands of years.
