The first town of Zhouzhi, the City God's Temple, the Royal Taoist Temple, and the hometown of the ghost king, are full of historical heritage
Although Zhongnan Mountain is famous, there are not many towns named after Zhongnan, and if you want to come to Zhongnan, this place may not be able to cover up the past.
Therefore, all the villages with the name of Zhongnan are extraordinary, such as Zhouzhi Zhongnan Town, Zhongnan Town, Zhongnan Village.
Zhongnan Town, also known as "the first city of Zhou", has a long history, since the beginning of the Western Zhou Dynasty, here was an ancient Yijun County, in the early years of Han Gaozu, Yishou County was set up here, because it is facing Zhongnan Mountain, so it was named Zhongnan County, Zhongnan Town was the place of county governance before and after, and it has been more than 700 years.
City God's Horse Aid.
He walked around Zhongnan Town for a long time, and had the deepest memory of the City God Temple, and after walking around, he learned that the owner of the City God Temple was Ma Yuan, the generalissimo of Fubo, which is the so-called "State City God".
Zhongnan Town was originally the Han Dynasty royal family Shanglin Yuan, after the pacification of the land, Ma Yuan was ordered to be stationed in Zhongnan, Ma Yuan built a large number of water conservancy facilities, so that the crops here can be harvested. Ma Yuan died of illness, and the people of Zhongnan built a temple for Ma Yuan by the Centipede Creek.
Until the Song Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty set up Hengzhou in the south, and built the City God Temple in Dongguan, after the completion of the City God Temple, the local people moved the statue of General Ma Yuan to the main hall of the City God Temple, since then, Ma Yuan has a state "City God".
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, one state governed three counties, and Hengzhou governed Zhouzhi County (Ganhe Town, now Hu County), Cangcheng County (Cangyu Village in Zhuyu Town) and Wentang County (now Nuanquan Temple in Guangji Town). The City God Temple has a history of more than 1,500 years since the Hengzhou Mansion was governed.
Nowadays, although the temple has been rebuilt, there is an ancient well called "Fubo Sacred Spring" in the courtyard. According to legend, when Ma Yuan was stationed here, he saw that the local residents did not have good drinking water, so he led his soldiers to dig this well. In the Song Dynasty, there was a year of drought and the plague was raging, and people drank its spring water, and the plague was cured, so people called this well "Fubo Divine Spring".
In addition, there are two places in the courtyard, the altar of earth and plum blossoms.
The Temple of Earth is the Temple of Earth, that is, the seven stars and nine seats in the Song Dynasty's "Shangqing Dao Peace Palace" (let's talk about the Taiping Palace).
That's why there is such a legend. There is a poem "Zhongnan" in the "Book of Songs": "Where is Zhongnan?"."And plum blossoms. The word "strip" is "plum", and the word "plum" is called plum because the flowers of heather look very similar to plum blossoms.
At that time, the Taiping Palace lifted people, went to the Temple of Earth to inspect, saw the plum blossoms in the field, the scenery was pleasant, so built a hut with three wings next to the Temple of Earth, named "Tiaomei Book House", in addition to official business on weekdays, often come here to study and Xi Confucian classics. Gao Wenju, a Jinshi of the Yuan Dynasty, once came to visit this place, and saw the study house that was destroyed by the fire, and deeply regretted it, so he inscribed the four big characters of "Tiaomei Ruins".
Famous figures in history, such as Su Shi, Bao Zheng, Gao Wenju, Kang Hai, etc., have all gone to the City God Temple to worship Ma Yuan. Nowadays, whenever I go to the City God Temple, the old people's card tables and poker booths on both sides of the hall are very lively.
Shangqing West Garden. Zhongnan Town is most famous for the Shangqing Taihe Hall dedicated to Zhong Kui.
The reason why the Taihe Hall of the Shangqing Dynasty was established was because Zhang Shouzhen, the famous Zhongnan Daoist, was originally just a commoner, wandering on Zhongnan Mountain, and suddenly heard a sentence from the sky, saying that it was the deputy of the Jade Emperor, called 'Black General', entrusted by the Jade Emperor, to help the Great Song Dynasty, and asked Zhang Shouzhen to serve wholeheartedly. Zhang Shouzhen returned to his hometown and built a small temple near his hometown, named "Beidi Palace", to commemorate the "Black Evil King".
Zhao Guangyi heard that Shaanxi Zhongnan Mountain has "Zhang Shenxian" was born, sent people to worship, and then "candle shadow axe", soon Song Taizu died, King Jin ascended the throne, and then ordered people to build the Shangqing Taihe Hall in Zhongnan Mountain, and gave the "Black Evil General" as the "Yisheng General", Zhang Shouzhen as the "Gongque", and promoted Qingping Town to "Zhongnan County", in charge of the "Shangqing Peace Palace".
The Taihe Hall of the Shangqing Dynasty existed in the Song and Jin dynasties for more than 300 years, and Zhongnan County was retained until the Yuan Dynasty, while the Peace Hall of the Shangqing Dynasty was abandoned after the Ming and Qing dynasties.
The current Shangqing Taihe Hall was rebuilt in 2009, and the underground palace of Zhong Kui Mountain was rebuilt.
Zhong Kui is a person from the end of the south, with a leopard head and ringed eyes, a face full of horizontal meat, and a strange shape, known as"Full of righteousness"。
When he was young, Zhong Kui often traveled with Luoguan on the streets, met strange people who Xi martial arts, and also had martial arts, and then went to Chang'an to participate in the imperial examination, won the title, and as a result, the Tang Emperor overwhelmed Zhong Kui with his beauty, and Zhong Kui committed suicide by hitting the wall.
The emperor of the Tang Dynasty held a grand funeral for Zhong Kui, Zhong Kui treated the Tang Ming Emperor in a dream, and the Tang Ming Emperor ordered the painter Wu Daozi to draw a portrait of Zhong Kui to drive away evil spirits, and announced that the whole country should hang it in his own home in order to drive away evil spirits. Since then, Zhong Kui's fame has grown, and many places have built Zhong Kui's temples, among which Zhong Kui is called the "god of good luck" by Taoism.
Temple of Fire.
On the streets of Jungnam Town, there is also a Shrine of the Virgin Fire Goddess of Waza, dedicated to a goddess of fire.
Legend has it that the temple was built during the Tang Dynasty when it was a large building that was originally used to store grain, but it was later destroyed and now only three shrines remain.
In this mountain, there is a monument of Feng Yuxiang's sixteen-year admonition, which reads: "It is necessary to purge the **, eliminate the local tyrants and inferior gentry, and establish a very clean regime." It is beneficial for us to eliminate disasters for the people, build water conservancy, build roads, plant trees, and so on. We should give everyone the opportunity to learn about Xi and culture. The training we conduct for the troops is to serve the masses. Our troops are the armed forces of a nation. ”
Feng Yuxiang's "Biography and Biography" still retains many pieces in Guanzhong.
Lu Hanlin's old house.
There is also a place called "Lu Hanlin's Former Residence" in Zhongnan Town, where there have been 3 Hanlin, 5 lifters, 14 lifters, lifters, supervisors, and lifters. Among the three scholars of the Lu family, Li Erqu is the most influential Li Erqu as the descendant of the great Confucian Luther of Guanzhong, so the "former residence of Lu Hanlin" is also known as the "former residence of Lu De".
This is an ancient mansion that has been listed as a provincial cultural relics protection, and it is also very interesting.
This town of more than 1,000 years has a rich history and culture, and idleness is idleness.
