In the Qing Dynasty, there was the cemetery of Ying Shao, the prefect, surrounded by five tall ancient pine trees. At that time, it was inconvenient for people to go to Jingxi, and bandits often robbed, so pedestrians met under the Wukesong tree and then walked together, and the name Wukesong was called far from now on.
Later 1965, the country built the subway. Due to technical problems, Wukesong trees died one after another. In order to commemorate the historical significance of this place name, Wukesong tree was replanted here.
2. Zhonggong Temple
According to Records of Yinxian County in Jiaqing of Ming Dynasty and Records of Yinxian County in Guangxu of Qing Dynasty, from the sixth year of Qingyuan to the fourth year of Jiatai in Southern Song Dynasty, the order of Yinxian County was Zhong Lian. During his tenure, he devoted himself to water conservancy, from Zhou Sudu to Chen Poxiao's family, and led the people to establish the "Qi of the Magpie Nest".
In order to thank Zhong Lian, the local people built a Zhong Lian Temple in the Magpie Nest. In the Ming Dynasty, Quechao was abolished, and the temple was moved to the heel of the temple, and the temple was changed to "faithfulness". In the twenty-fourth year of Daoguang in Qing Dynasty, the squire Zhou Daozun was taboo and wrote to the court to build a temple named "Zhong Gong". Since then, the name of "Zhong Gong Temple" has been used to this day.
3, mouse sand
During the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, a small sand appeared in the southwest waters of Chongming Island. This small sand pile is just across the river, which is Baimao Port in Changshu County. Because "Mao" and "cat" are homonyms, some people call it "White Cat Harbor". Xiaosha, a newly rising sand in Chongming, is like a mouse in the water in the rolling river, running around in front of a white cat, hiding from Tibet.
Later, this small sand gradually piled up, and the longer it grew, the reeds grew on the sand, and flocks of geese and ducks lived and multiplied in the sand mountain. Farmers in Chongming Xisha, rocking their boats and sitting in wooden pots, went to the beach to catch crabs, cut reeds and catch wild ducks.
In this small sandy land, farmers saw many mice running around among the reeds, so the name "mouse sand" has been passed down to this day. "White cat" catches "mouse", which has become the legend of white mine harbor river rat sand.
4. Coffin Head Port
There is a port on Hengsha Island called Coffin Head Port. This port is short, but it is more than twenty feet long. One day many years ago, at the moment of high tide, a coffin was floating outside the port. People on the island felt unlucky and pushed the coffin out together. But the coffin is too heavy to push, and it can't be pushed into the sea until the tide ebbs.
So the crowded chef dragged the coffin to the shore and opened the lid, only to find that it was full of gold and silver. Everyone took out all the treasures, bought a lot of paper money and incense sticks, and made paper houses and paper beds for ghosts. Then, cover the coffin and bury it underground on the shore. From then on, this place is called coffin head port.
5. Apple Orchard
According to legend, in the Ming Dynasty, a eunuch was favored and got a lot of private money, so he bought a large piece of land in Jingxi and planted all kinds of fruits and vegetables. But perhaps because of water and soil problems, only apples grow best here, so he ordered that only apples be planted.
In this way, a huge apple orchard appeared in Jingxi. Of course, the apple trees here were later cut down and turned into farmland, but the place names kept calling and never changed.
