A magnificent ancient clock.
According to Nanning historical records, the Bell and Drum Tower is simple and elegant, resplendent and magnificent. The base is square and the top of the building is a gourd-shaped spire; At the four corners of the downstairs are four giant brick square columns with a diameter of about 2 meters. This building is very wide. In ancient times, in addition to selling food stalls downstairs, it also shouldered the task of crossing the street. In the northeast of the building, there is a staircase to ring the bell; There are four plaques in the east, west, north and south of this building. The one in the east is called Xuanhe, the one in the south is called Tong Ming, the one in the west is called Yinghou, and the one in the north is called Chen Gong.
The bronze bell of the Bell and Drum Tower is 1.8 meters high, 1.2 meters in diameter and weighs 1, 000 kilograms. Now it's in Zhenningbao, Nanning People's Park. It is the largest hanging clock in China and a precious cultural relic and artistic treasure in Nanning. In addition to the weight, casting year, the names of the caster and the donor, there are also the words "good weather, good weather, peaceful country and people", which are dignified and beautiful.
During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, Nanning fell, and the bronze bell was once moved to Baise, Liuzhou, Wuhan and other places, and was once exiled. After the liberation of Nanning, Guangxi cultural relics workers immediately bought Huiyong after discovering its trace in Wuhan. This ancient bronze bell, which has gone through many vicissitudes, is still well preserved and is the largest existing bronze bell in Nanning.
The former Bell and Drum Tower area has now become a bustling business district.
Historical cycle of simplicity and charm
The loud bells of the bell and drum tower are far away by the Yongjiang River. The reason why it is called "Morning Bell and Twilight Drum" lies in the following: "Morning Bell" refers to knocking three times every morning, with 36 rings in each array, * * * ring 108 to send away 108 kinds of troubles; "Twilight Drum" rings at night, corresponding to the morning bell. The morning bell that breaks the fog, the dusk drum that passes through the clouds, the happy tourists ... The so-called morning bell is a dream, and the dusk drum is a reminder.
While the new bell and drum tower brings people infinite reverie, the rise and fall of the old bell and drum tower also makes people sad. According to historical records, the Bell Tower and Drum Tower is an indispensable scene in the ancient temple garden culture in China. In ancient times, there was a saying that "the morning bell awakened the rich and famous guests in the world, and the Buddha's name gently recalled the bitter dream". The beating of the bells and drums embodies the traditional spirit of Chinese rites and music. Nowadays, when old Nanning talks about the Bell and Drum Tower, the most common legends are "a big copper bell can be hung on a straw", "Ghosts steal precious grass" and "the bell and drum fight the dragon king". Grandma Zhuo, 76, who lives in Datong Street, mysteriously told reporters: "Listen to my mother, once the bronze bell of the Bell and Drum Tower is hung with a straw, it will roll down the Yongjiang River in the middle of the night and fight with the water dragon king head down ..." Zhou Xiaoxian, an 86-year-old retired cadre in Nanning, happily recalled the bell of the Bell and Drum Tower: "We live in Minsheng Road. Although I can't hear you clearly, in every country, at other times, it is usually from 7 pm to 6 am the next day, and then the night watchman in every small street will go to look at his watch. When I was eleven or twelve years old, I often went to the Bell and Drum Tower to play. I remember it was a two-story wooden building. Nobody watches the clock at ordinary times. At night, the government sends people to ring the bell to be on duty, and beggars often spend the night downstairs ... "Because of this, Zhou Xiaoxian put forward the idea of restoring the Bell and Drum Tower at the Nanning Monument Symposium held by the Nanning Municipal Government in 2004.
There is a copper bell hanging on the straw.
During Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty, a bell and drum tower was built in Yanbu Street (near the intersection of Hehe Road and Quan Min Road) in Nanning.
According to the legend of old Nanning, there are two wooden frames, a straw rope, a big bronze bell and a big drum on the bell and drum tower. It is said that one year there was a drought in Nanning, and the cowhide drum couldn't stand the sun, so I asked for leave with two bells and rolled from the ditch leading to the Watergate to the Yongjiang River to take a bath.
It is said that there is a one-horned dragon in the Yongjiang River. Its mouth can emit black smoke, which often pollutes the river, and it also involves the washerwoman on the riverside into the river, and the people complain bitterly. On this day, one-horned dumplings were drinking and having fun in the palace, and they were stirred up by drums. In a rage, he led a thousand troops straight to the river to denounce the drum, and the drum that was enjoying itself was scratched by the one-horned dumpling. Being outnumbered, the drums had to flee back to the Bell and Drum Tower. The bronze bell was furious when he knew it, and went straight to Yongjiang to get justice for the drum. One-horned dumpling, who was enjoying drinking in the palace, heard the bronze bell bawl and left for Yingjiang. Only when the bronze bell killed the soldiers and crabs to pieces did the one-horned dumpling stand up and fight back. After only a few rounds, it turned and ran away. As a result, it was buckled by the clever bronze bell, grabbed the one-horned dumpling and dragged it back to the bell and drum tower.
Just as the bronze bell and the drum were preparing to blow up the one-horned dumpling to vent their anger, they suddenly heard someone upstairs. The bronze bell quickly read a spell, and the dragon immediately became another straw rope and hung on the shelf. ...
Be vividly portrayed in the twilight drum and morning light.
Fu Bo, the former chief architect of Guangxi Construction Department, told the reporter that when he 196 1 worked in Nanning, he lived in a hotel in front of Zhenningbao, People's Park, and he often saw the big bronze bells of the Bell and Drum Tower. Later, he saw the pictures and materials of the bell and drum tower from a chronicle of Nanning, and he came up with the idea of making a bell pavilion with the materials of the clock and the characteristics of the original building. "Calling back some old things is not entirely new, it adds to the charm of history. I learned the lessons of my previous oral failure and began to appeal in the form of words! " Mr. Fu keeps his promise. In the Spring Festival of 2004, he wrote to the mayor of Nanning, suggesting to rebuild the Bell and Drum Tower. The full text of the letter is as follows: Mayor Lin and Vice Mayor Chen: Happy Spring Festival! There is a suggestion, which seems to be implemented only after calling the police.
Nanning has the Ming and Qing bell tower, which was destroyed in the Republic of China, leaving photos, but the clock is still there; Therefore, it is suggested to restore the bell tower and retrieve the memory of Nanning's development.
..... Of course, if it is resumed, the site selection and location can be decided through public discussion.
It can be in Minsheng Square or in front of the International Convention and Exhibition Center. I just hope I can hear the mayor ring the bell upstairs to announce the dawn on New Year's Day next year.
In addition, Comrade Ling Bin of CPPCC once mentioned that exposing the ancient wall of Xinhua Street is also a good suggestion to show the experience of the city, and I hope it can be implemented together. These two opinions were put forward in the discussion of "Controlled Protection Planning of Historical Traditional Blocks in Nanning" and "Research on Redevelopment of Old Urban Areas in Nanning" written by Tsinghua, but this suggestion may not solve the problem, so it must be approved by the planning and urban construction departments.
The specific content of the original bell tower has been compiled into the Architectural History of Nanning presided over by Vice Mayor Chen, which is recorded in detail. To this end, a letter from Fu Bojing, the former chief architect of the Ritual Building, to Mr. Fu in the Spring Festival of 2004 stirred up a thousand waves. Mayor Lin Guoqiang then instructed: "Please ask Vice Mayor Chen Ruixian to arrange relevant departments to put forward opinions after reading it. Where is this clock? How to show it? Accurate value research. " Chen Ruixian, vice mayor, also instructed the Planning and Construction Bureau to study opinions.
In March, 2004, Nanning Cultural Bureau held a demonstration meeting to restore the Bell and Drum Tower in the city museum, and specially invited the old man Zhou Xiaoxian who proposed to rebuild the Bell and Drum Tower. Finally, it is suggested to build and repair the famous bell and drum tower in Nanning along Yongjiang River.
In 2005, the Municipal Bureau of Culture proposed to build five historical and cultural attractions, such as the Bell and Drum Tower, and Nanning's awareness of protecting cultural cities was awakened again.
Although Gu Jing is not famous, it still exists.
Ma Shuang Well is located at the intersection of Renmin East Road and Youai South Road, about 10 meter in front of No.63 Renmin East Road. There used to be two parallel wells here, which used to be the main source of domestic water for the surrounding residents. The well was buried after the road was built in the early 1980s. However, the citizens have always referred to the section from the ethnic shopping mall in the west, Youai Bridge in the north and Shajing Wharf in the south as "Ma Shuangjing". According to legend, "Ma Shuangjing" was dug by General Di Qing in the Song Dynasty (but there is no historical record), and it was also said that it was dug in the early years of the Republic of China.
Shuangmangjing is one of the newly announced 2 1 cultural relics in Nanning, and some buses use this place name. There are Minjing Snack Bar, Minjing Hotel and Minjing Cold Drink Shop next to Shuangminjing.
Looking back at the ancient well, the lights are dim.
The rolling traffic in the city often stops at the intersection of Renmin East Road and Youai South Road for a short time, which is called Shuangmangjing. A red light of more than ten seconds may temporarily connect the history of this city.
I don't know when the internal connection of Ma Shuangjing was interrupted by modern traffic, and as the most famous place in Nanning, its disappearance more embodies a specimen significance.
Throughout the process of urbanization in Tancheng, people may find that there are not many historical sites rooted in the hearts of citizens like double-sided wells, and we can clearly touch its life cycle. In the historical track of Nanning, the well-known double-sided well without well has been witnessing this great change or gradual change.
Nowadays, as one of the few historical sites in the capital, the double-sided well, together with other places of interest, constitutes the cultural source of Tancheng. Perhaps it is precisely because of the integrity of this culture that the historical sites in the golden business district of this city have disappeared for many years, and people are still chanting its goodness.
The colorful city life is gradually filled with the cultural atmosphere of Ma Shuangjing, and Jing has to accept the most intuitive stimulus of "modernization". But for nostalgic people, Shuangmijing still has nostalgia, and people also find that the appearance of Shuangmijing is gradually clear in dimly lit places.
Clear springs educate people, and mulberries are affectionate.
Turning to the map of Nanning, I don't know when the ancient well disappeared and there was no trace. Only the old place names such as "Ma Shuangjing" and "Shajing Street" marked on the map also show the history that once existed here.
The reporter learned that at the intersection of Youai South Road and Renmin East Road No.63, about 10 meter, there are two wells at the once prosperous T-junction. They are close to each other, and the wellhead is as big as sisters, hence the name Ma Shuang Well. This well does not dry up all year round, and the water is clear, bright and sweet. Residents in this area are pumping water and washing clothes here. At that time, all the people living here were working people at the lower level, rickshaw pullers, peddlers, porters and masons ... They went out early and returned late, worked hard and their children were in rags. They go to school together in groups at the wellhead every day, and go to the wellhead to help adults carry water after school, which embellishes the scenery here.
Drinking water and thinking of the source, double wells make old Nanning fall in love. Wei Apo, who lives in the third lane of Shajing Street, recalls that she is still full of longing: "The well depth of Shuangmangjing is as long as two cow ropes, about two feet and four feet deep. Well water is good, warm in winter and cool in summer, but it can't be beaten. At that time, residents of Rouqing Garden, Lingyun Garden and Xihu Garden nearby came here to draw water. " Now, when it comes to rebuilding the buried Ma Shuangjing, 69-year-old Lu Meilian's grandmother is very excited: "This is a good thing. Do we have it at home? Son? Well hotel, another double well will be? All of them. " Lu Apo said that when she married Shajing Street from Wutang, she lived next to it. After giving birth to a pair of children, the third child was lucky to give birth to twin sons. "I was born in 1964? After I was born, the neighborhood Committee also subsidized me 7 pounds of eggs and 5 pounds of sugar. Our family of six lives on her husband's salary of 57 yuan a month, and life is hard. Someone advised me? Give the child away. I said it was natural, but I won't give up. ? When I was a child, I often carried a bucket made of half a basketball to fetch water from a well in Ma Shuang.
With Shuangjing, we have a boy, and the hotel we run is called Jingjing Hotel. "Grandma lu said.
Shuangmangjing ancient well is very beautiful.
Lu Apo, who lives in North Erli of Renmin Road and is now over 70 years old, recalls that there are four gates in Tancheng, and each gate has a well and three trees. There used to be three dragon trees next to Ma Shuangjing. There was a small well under the tree, and the well water often overflowed the road.
195 1 year, the road was expanded to repair the park, the dragon tree was dug, and the well was moved to the middle of the road, which is today's Ma Shuangjing. "At that time, we loved to draw water with blue helmets. Later, we used tap water instead of well water." The 74-year-old Huang Laobo immediately told the reporter: "I remember that Ma Shuangjing was repaired three times, and the more it was repaired, the more beautiful it became.
The first maintenance was in 1957, and two fences were built around the well with stones to form a symmetrical 90-degree angle; The second time was1February 958, and the road near the well was paved with cement. I joined the fire brigade that year, so I was impressed. The third time, the platform railing was built by the well, with a height of 10 cm. There are two rows of buttonwood trees, full of red flowers, very beautiful. Ding Huang, a 70-year-old retired worker who lives at No.25 Shajing Street, told reporters that the elevation of Ma Shuangjing 1 m was a "foreign well" funded by Lu Rongting, a tour guide of Guangdong and Guangxi during the Republic of China.
"At that time, each family charged 20 cents to have the ocean washed. At the bottom of the well, there is a big bowl of bamboo tube directly inserted in the depth, and the well water never overflows, including when we came back from Japan, we didn't use well water for a long time, the water level remained unchanged, and the road was not flooded. " According to Lan Chaohua, a well water monitor, "I have been monitoring well water for many years. Every morning at 2 am and noon, I take a ruler to measure the water level, including the floods and earthquakes in Yongjiang River. Well water has not risen much, and the water quality has not changed. The double-port design of the wellhead is very safe, and people are not easy to fall into the well. " Wei Apo, who loves to sit by the double grinding well for recreation, told reporters that many old residents refused to fill the well and close the road, and consciously stood by the well with a wick day and night, indicating the determination of people to be in the well and forcing the construction team to change the well filling plan. Lan Chaohua said: "At the end of 1984, because of road construction, I witnessed the construction team knocking off the wellhead, digging a few feet down, connecting a drainage pipe to Chaoyang Creek, and then sealing the ancient well with cement precast panels. Later, when the pipeline gas was installed, it was dug into the well, and they filled it in and bypassed it. "
Disappear from the ancient well.
According to the reporter's investigation, although many people don't know Renmin East Road and Gongyuan Road, they all know that this area is called Shuangmangjing. Why has Ma Shuang been buried for 20 years, but not forgotten? Ding Huang said that although the name of the road near Ma Shuangjing has been changed many times since the 1960s, it was Ma Shuangjing who crossed the rows of buttonwood trees 20 years ago that impressed passers-by. "Passers-by love to see the depth of the well, which is easy to enter the brain, so they are impressed and unforgettable."
Well water is deep, cold and clear. Shuangjing, which has nurtured generations of Nanning people, although far away, has written the history of Nanning, making our city thick and long.
In the interview, the reporter tried to relive Gu Jing's past glory in the memory of the old people, but he never tasted its original charm. It is gratifying that the reconstruction of Ma Shuangjing has been included in the daily agenda of relevant departments in Nanning. It is understood that Shuangjing will reappear in the newly-built Macau Street. By then, Shuangjing will be perfectly combined with modern commercial civilization, enhance the cultural taste of modern Nanning, retain the cultural source of Nanning and enrich the urban connotation.
The ancient dike and the ancient wall are now in
Yongjiang ancient dike for flood control: It was originally located by the river near Linjiang Road on the north bank of Yongjiang River in Nanning, with a section of 5m high and 100 m long, and was made of large stones. It was originally one of the flood control levees built during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, and it is also the oldest existing Yongjiang flood control levee in Nanning.
Nanning Ancient City Wall: According to historical records, Nanning Ancient City Wall was built in the Song Dynasty. At the beginning, the circumference of the city wall was about1.050m, and the height was about 6m. East Gate (on the right side of Telecommunication Bureau Building, at the junction of Minsheng Road and South Ring Road), Ying 'en Gate (North Gate, now Workers' Cultural Palace), Cangximen Gate (at the junction of Minsheng Road and Jiefang Road) and Zhenjiang Gate (sluice, now) opened south in the thirty years of Ming Wanli; In six years, Qianlong was built to a scale of about 9 meters high and 6 meters wide. Outside the towers of Cangximen, Beimen and Dongmen, there is a sub-city, called Moon City.
The ancient dike for flood control located at Linjiang Road on the north bank of Yongjiang River.
Ancient dike: the wall of the survivors: ashes and smoke.
Recently, the reporter saw in the former site of the ancient dike that a section of Yongjiang ancient dike, which is 5 meters high and 100 meters long and made of large stones, still stands by the river near Linjiang Road on the north bank of Yongjiang River, and continues to carry out its unchanging mission for thousands of years-"General closes the door to stop flood".
According to statistics, the average annual flow of Yongjiang River through Nanning is about 48 billion cubic meters. According to Yongning County Records, in the second year of Song Dynasty (1042), there was a flood in Yongjiang River: "Autumn water entered Tancheng two feet, and bad officials lived in houses." During the 778 years from the second year of Song Chongning (1 103) to the seventh year of Qing Guangxu (188 1), Nanning * * * suffered six catastrophic floods, namely 1633 and1respectively. 188 1 the annual water level is as high as 79.98 meters.
It has been recorded in the literature: "This year (188 1), the flood was a once-in-a-century disaster ... In August, the east wind rained for days, and the water rose, and the gates built earth barriers. The water outside the city is higher than that in the city. " According to Mr Zhou Xiaoxian, an 86-year-old citizen of Nanning, before liberation, there were two ancient city walls in Nanning. One is the ruins of the ancient city of Tang Dynasty, which is about 30 meters from Jinwei Lu Wu to Guangxi Military Region. Now it is gone. The other is the "Song Cheng" built in the Song Dynasty. Today, Xingning Road and Minsheng Road are built with solid bricks, and the city profile 1.030 steps, so there is a folk saying that "the city is three miles straight and seven miles horizontal". "1950 There are also some urban bases, which I have seen in Zhongshan Park. Song Cheng extends from today's Dangyang Street to Yongjiang Hotel, turns South Ring Road to * * * North Primary School, turns to the Workers' Cultural Palace, then turns to the Fire Building to the Department Store, Xinhua Street to the foot of the water tower, and then turns back to Dangyang Street.
But this section of the ancient city wall has now disappeared without trace. Mr. Zhou told reporters with emotion that after liberation, with the widening of Nanning road, the ancient city wall of Nanning was completely demolished, and this history has been "destroyed". Unfortunately, it is hoped that the ancient city walls rebuilt in the future will bring back traces of history.
Brief introduction of ancient dikes listed as municipal cultural relics protection units.
Although the ancient dike is old, it can still prevent floods.
According to documents, ancient Tancheng was often flooded, and another big flood occurred in Nanning in the fourth year of Qing Qianlong (1739). From four to six years after Qianlong, Yang, the magistrate of Zuojiang Road, and Wu Fengnian, the magistrate of a county, hired people to rebuild the riverside wall. From the west gate of Qiancang to the outside of Ansai Gate (from the intersection of Minsheng Road and Dangyang Road to the intersection of modern nationalities), the river is rushing and the river bank is washed away, resulting in numerous floods in the city. Because of this, although many protective dikes were built, they were all washed away by the river because of instability.
In the eighth year of Qing Qianlong (1743), a large stone dike was built near the water surface from Cangximen (now Minsheng Wharf) to Ansaimen (now near the south of Yongjiang Hotel), and three docks (namely Xiaguan Wharf) were built in front of it. The stone dike (dike) is 51 feet high, protecting the city foundation, and three docks were built, but soon the stone dike (dike) collapsed 21 feet; In the eighteenth, fifty-second, twenty-sixth and thirty years, Daoguang Qianlong rebuilt the city walls and riverbanks, and built a pavilion in Ansaimen Highland, which was called the River Sacrifice Terrace, and was the place where officials of past dynasties held river sacrifice ceremonies.
It is reported that these three wharves were demolished in 1980s, but this stone dike still plays a flood control role. The existing stone dike (dike) is the most complete and largest existing flood control facility in Qing Dynasty in Nanning. The Yongjiang ancient flood control dike was announced as a municipal cultural relics protection unit in 2002. The existing stone dike stone strips have been well preserved so far, engraved with the words "the first floor, the second floor and the third floor of the dike top", "the mainstay" and "the Three Rivers of Yongzheng".
The city wall has been destroyed, so leave the name of the city gate.
As for the historical changes of the ancient city wall, according to the literature, in the thirty years of Wanli in Ming Dynasty (1602), due to the development of urban and rural trade, Xue Fan, the magistrate, opened the "South Gate" (now the junction of Zhongshan Road and South Ring Road). However, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, war broke out and the south gate was blocked. In addition, a fireworks door was opened at a gap dozens of feet away from the north gate (now behind the Civil Affairs Bureau of Guangxi) as a passage for residents in the city to transport firewood. These belong to the ancient buildings of Ming and Qing Dynasties. In the sixth year of the Republic of China (19 17), the foundation of Xingning Road to Xiguan Road was opened, and a "new west gate" was opened.
During the 800-odd years from the Northern Song Dynasty to the Republic of China, Yongzhou City Wall collapsed many times, and the prefects of past dynasties were constantly rebuilt. By the early years of the Republic of China, the city wall had lost its efficacy. In addition, the provincial government moved from Guilin to Nanning. The authorities thought that the city wall hindered the urban construction, so the provincial government decided to tear down the city wall to expand the construction land. Twenty years after the Republic of China, the wall in the southeast of Tancheng has been developed into a ring road, and new houses have been built around it.
Gui Zhu Hua Song Cheng
Nanning was built in the Jin Dynasty, formerly known as Yongzhou. According to legend, there was only one Tianning Temple in ancient times, so there was a saying that "it was born with peace, and later Nanning". During the reign of Song Renzong, liuchu was appointed as the prefect of Yongzhou. After he took office, he found that the original earthen city was short and unsafe, and decided to build another masonry wall. But strangely, migrant workers built the city foundation during the day and collapsed at night, and there was nothing they could do for several days. The night is deeper and quieter. Liu Taishou thought about building a city before sitting alone. Because he works day and night, he doesn't feel sleepy at his desk. In the dark, suddenly a man of God came up to him and said, "Build a city, build a city, or a turtle will do." Then disappear.
The next morning, Liu Taishou went to the construction site. Suddenly, the wind blew hard, and a black python was blown by the wind a hundred paces away, which immediately reminded Liu Taishou that in the process of looking for gods, Zhang Yi built a city and collapsed again and again. Later, it was built according to the turtle line. Liu Taishou ordered people to plant signboards along the python trail, bypass Donghaotang from the stone archway (now * * * and Road), pass through the ancestral hall of Laozhao in the East Gate (now the eastern end of Minsheng Road), follow the South Ring Road, burn the burnt land (now the left side of Yongjiang Hotel), pass Dangyang Street, Shuita Foot, Xinhua Street and Wanghuolou, and return to the stone archway to build the city according to this route.
It turned out to be Watergate (now at the end of Quan Min Road of Yongjiang Bridge). Nine turtles live in a hole by a deep pool under the river. One day, they were led by Wang Zhan, the hose, and the tortoise had to go ashore and hide underground, building a city to make them have nowhere to hide, so it was destroyed at night. When the Water Dragon King knew about it, he sent General Black Python to suppress it. The turtles ran away in a hurry, but only turned to stone.
Since then, eight stone turtles have been found in this city, two in the Confucius Temple (now in Nanning Hotel), one in the lecture hall in Wang Shouren, and the stone archway (now passing through the southern section of Beining Street in Lunan). One is near the sluice (now the west section of Quan Min Road); One is at Zhu Sheng Palace in Youxing Street (now on the right side of the pier in the middle of Dangyang Street, half of which is pinned down by the Municipal Foundation); One is at the street corner of Chenghuangmiao (now at the entrance of Hongxing Theater); One is near Nanmenjing (now the middle section of Zhongshan Road); One is in Huamian Street (now the east section of Quan Min Road).
The last one fled to the pavilion in the south of the Yangtze River and turned into a stone and a turtle back for people to walk on.
News link-Nanning Chenghuang Temple
Also known as Fucheng Imperial Temple, this temple is located in Hongxing Cinema on Xingning Road today. Chenghuang Temple was built in the early years of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty, which was the burial place of Su Zhi family. It was originally called Su Temple, with the portrait and inscription of the Lord. In the eighth year of Xining in Song Shenzong (1075), Jiaodi (now the state of Yue) fell into Qin Zhou and Lianzhou, committing the crime of Tanzhou. Su Jian, the magistrate of Yongzhou, had only 2,800 officers and men guarding the city and was trapped in the isolated city for 42 days.
In the end, water and food were exhausted and Tanzhou City was captured. Su Jian led a family of 36 people, jumped into the fire pit and set himself on fire.
In July of the 9th year of Xining, Song Shenzong (1076), the Ministry of Di Qing deported Guo Kui and buried the bones of Su Zhi's family under the city wall of Nanning. In the Song Dynasty, it was named as Yongning City God, and it was named "Su Temple". In the first year of the Republic of China (19 12), the city's statues were destroyed, and the Town God Temple was used as an autonomous office. In the eighth year of the Republic of China (19 19), it was the trial and prosecution office of Nanning. In order to commemorate their bravery, the local people set aside 100 square meters of land on the high hill, built a small cage for their statue, and carved a stone tablet of "the land of Su Gong sacrifice", which has been burning incense here for hundreds of years. At the beginning of liberation, it was converted into Red Star Theatre. Now there is an ancient city wall made of huge stones in the Chenghuang Temple, which is called "Back Palace Wall".
Guangxi volunteers who admire beauty settled in Nanning.
Reporter: Manager Fu, I heard that you are from Shanghai?
Fu Bo: Yes, I'm from Shanghai. When I was studying in Nanjing Institute of Technology, I listened to the introduction of my tutor who came back from the meeting in Guilin. Guangxi is beautiful, wonderfully beautiful, and I am tempted. As a result, I filled in the first and second work volunteers in Guangxi. 196 1 came to work in Nanning, and it took 44 years.
The "hukou" stayed in the academy and rebuilt the museum.
I remember that in the 1970s, experts from Beijing came to Nanning to visit the ancient buildings in Nanning. I showed them around and found that there were not many surviving ancient buildings. After visiting a private house in Jiangnan, I went back to Jiefang Road to see Xinhui Academy. When we got there, we were shocked. Many workers are tearing down houses. The long corridors and some roofs on both sides of the academy were destroyed, and we learned that they were demolished to expand the dormitory. I am in a hurry. I immediately contacted the relevant departments and found Sun Zhuo, the former chief engineer of Nanning Construction Committee at that time, and finally left the Academy. That's really the rest of my life! At that time, experts in Beijing suggested that Nanning could be converted into a museum, and now the showroom of Nanning Museum is Xinhui Academy.
Jiefang Road Tianning Temple former site.
Saving the Chenghuang Temple ended in failure.
When Minsheng Road and Xingning Road were rebuilt, I participated in the expert group of the pedestrian street, and found that the designer's new plan from Peking University was to knock out some monuments on the outer wall of the arcade of the pedestrian street and stick some neat patterns on the FRP again. This is not real protection, and it is getting farther and farther away from history. But it's too late to modify the plan. When I joined the expert group, it was already in the construction stage. It's a pity that today's arcade has been transformed, not original.
I later discovered the Town God Temple in Jinsixiang. Together with Huang Enhou, the current chief engineer of the Municipal Planning Bureau, I verbally suggested that the Chenghuang Temple should be left and protected in a modern way with reference to the successful integration of Shanghai and commerce. The expert group also discussed it, and we also produced the relevant documents of the municipal government to protect the old streets. In the end, our plan was rejected, and everyone thought that making appropriate changes was also protection. In the end, the Chenghuang Temple was not saved and was demolished.
Today, there is only one section of broken walls left in the Chenghuang Temple. Nanning, as an important town in southern Xinjiang, once had some historical sites with local characteristics and historical and cultural connotations, such as Chenghuang Temple, but for various reasons, not many were left behind.
Rebuilding the Millennium Confucius Temple and condensing everyone's efforts.
Two days ago, Wen Li, secretary of the Municipal Museum, asked me to have a look at the design and construction drawings for restoring the Confucius Temple. It is estimated that the Confucius Temple can finally see the light of day. I found the "limbs" of Confucius Temple in Guangxi Exhibition Hall, including doors, beams, columns and other wood blocks, which have been piled since the 1950s. Because an architect participated in the demolition, he marked every piece of wood, which was well preserved and integrated into a complete Confucius Temple. It's a pity that I lost it for so many years, so I put forward a proposal to restore the Confucius Temple in the 1970s and 1980s. As a cultural landscape with both cultural relics and tourism value, it has a very positive and far-reaching significance for carrying forward the excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation, especially the essence of Confucian culture, and strengthening patriotic education.
In 2003, the city museum finally put the restoration of Confucius Temple on the agenda, and I also helped them determine the new site of Qingxiu Mountain Scenic Area. As a result, they later convened experts from all over the country to discuss and agreed that the Confucius Temple should be expanded and rebuilt, rather than simply restored. The plan was made by Guangxi Planning and Design Institute, and the old Confucius Temple was placed in a room of the new Confucius Temple, which was the final compromise. Well, finally, there are some Nanning monuments, so that everyone can know about the culture of the Song Dynasty.
Set up a milestone to protect the liberation road
The riverside of Jiefang Road is ready to expand the new national cinema, and the design drawings have arrived at me. Dongdating commercial and residential building was originally the scope of demolition. I have been there, and the architectural form, materials and practices of that building are different from those of the Qing Dynasty. It has become foreign style. Its house beams are imported from American pine trees. It is a "living fossil" that witnessed the transition from the late Qing Dynasty to western architecture. It is the only building in China, which plays a milestone role in the history of ancient architecture and cannot be demolished! I mentioned it to the director of the Municipal Cultural Bureau, and she agreed to stay. I also suggest that the designer take Dongdating Commercial and Residential Building as a part of the new cinema corridor. As a cultural attraction, it has little influence on the development, which can increase the popularity of cinemas and bring more benefits to cinemas.
I also went to see the former site of Tianning Temple on Jiefang Road with the comrades of the Municipal Planning Bureau to analyze whether it has preservation value.
The Nanning General Chamber of Commerce is no longer Tianning Temple. The wood of that house belongs partly to the Qing Dynasty and partly to the Republic of China, but it is also a historic site and worth preserving. At my suggestion, Nanning General Chamber of Commerce was later listed as a cultural relic protection unit in Nanning. There are many good things on Jiefang Road. I hope it can become a key protected area of historical relics in Nanning and a tourist area in Nanning. On the one hand, it can improve the visibility of the city, let the citizens know more about its history and improve their quality and knowledge. On the other hand, it can enlarge and strengthen the central city of Guangxi's provincial capital, and improve citizens' humanistic awareness and protection awareness.
News link-Nanning Confucius Temple
Confucius Temple in Nanning (A.D. 1049- 1054) was built during the reign of the Northern Song Emperor. It is a Confucius Temple in ancient Nanning with a history of more than 900 years.
According to historical experts' research, the former site of Confucius Temple in Nanning is located in Shashi, outside Cangximen, which is now the eastern end of Jiefang Road in Nanning, and then moved to Nanning Hotel on Minsheng Road. From then until the 1940s, Nanning locals gathered here every spring and autumn to hold a grand commemoration of Confucius. When the Confucius Temple in Nanning was first built, it had a considerable scale. Built many times in later dynasties, it became the most complete garden-style cultural landscape in Nanning in Qing Dynasty, covering an area of more than ten acres. However, due to the war and other reasons, some buildings in Nanning Confucius Temple were in ruins in the early 1920s. In 1930s, after the renovation of Dacheng Hall, a key building in the temple, it once again became a holy place for men, women and children, especially literati to worship sages.
1982 10, the only remaining Dacheng Hall was demolished due to the expansion of Nanning Hotel, and some of its raw materials have been kept in Guangxi Exhibition Hall for future reconstruction.
