What was the name of the ancient brothel?
Hello, I'm Mianyu, and I have different wonderful information to share with you every day.

Today, let's discuss, there are many romantic places in ancient times, so what are the names of famous brothels?

Let's be specific.

Number one? Prostitutes in China originated in the Xia Jie era. In the Spring and Autumn Period of Qi Huangong, Guan Zhong, a doctor of Qi State, nationalized prostitutes in order to increase national income. Since then, prostitutes have entered a "rapid" development period.

Prostitutes include imperial prostitutes, private prostitutes, palace prostitutes, military prostitutes and city prostitutes. After the Tang Dynasty, with the development of commodity economy, urban prostitutes have made great progress. In the Ming Dynasty, prostitutes were particularly prosperous. The Eight Colourful Flowers in Qinhuai, headed by Chen Yuanyuan in history, are proof of this. And the place to carry these singers is the brothel.

Second, of course, brothels are the most advanced brothels. Brothel originally refers to luxurious and exquisite buildings. As we know, Zhumen is a big family, Zhumen is a red painted gate, and the brothel is a blue painted gate. In the Tang Dynasty, brothels gradually became synonymous with fireworks. Li Bai, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, once said that "you are a prostitute in a brothel, and you are a white jade boy", and Du Mu's "Ten-year dream of Yangzhou is better than a brothel's poverty and happiness" all refer to brothels.

It is precisely because the brothel is such a place, an advanced place; Such a geisha can sing and dance well, and can recite poems against her. Such a guest is a scholar-bureaucrat and a scholar. Therefore, the unique brothel culture in ancient times was formed. Brothel culture developed in the Tang Dynasty.

In the Song Dynasty, the brothel culture reached its peak. In fact, brothel culture played an important role in the glory of Song Ci. Liu Yong is a poet who can best represent the brothel culture in Song Dynasty.

Third? In ancient times, the names of first-and second-class brothels were mainly Yuan, Ge and Guan, while the names of third-and fourth-class brothels were mostly Fang, Ban, Lou, Shop and Xiachu.
