Brief introduction of Kunming Jinji Bima Square
Jinma Bijifang is located at the intersection of Shisan Street and Jinbi Road in downtown Kunming, with a height of12m and a width of18m. It is beautifully carved and painted. It is called Jinmafang in the east and Bijifang in the west, which is the symbol of Kunming. Jinma Bijifang was founded in Xuande period of Ming Dynasty, and has a history of nearly 400 years.

The environment of the whole Golden Horse Chicken House is particularly beautiful, especially at night. When the sun shines on Bijifang from the west, its reflection falls on the street in the east. At the same time, the moon has just risen from the east, and the silver light shines on the golden horse's tusks, casting its reflection on the west street. The shadows of the two archways gradually got closer and closer, and finally they met.

Myths and legends about Golden Horse and Blue Chicken were first seen in Historical Records of the Han Dynasty, and Zhao Shilin, a famous scholar in Qing Dynasty, also wrote in the poem Blue Chicken that colorful clouds danced and were fascinated by the five-color light, turning them into green hills and white treasures, and Wang Baokong crossed Brazil alone. Later, Yang Shen, a famous scholar in Yunnan in the Ming Dynasty, took Wang Bao's Golden Horse and Blue Chicken as a literary fish, which was on the cliff of Xishan Mountain in Kunming.

Cultural symbols:

Jinma and Bijie Square used to be the cultural landscape and city symbol of Kunming. Located at the southern end of the traditional central axis of Kunming, which is the intersection of Jinbi Road and Zhengyi Road today, it was built in Xuande period of Ming Dynasty. There is Jinma Square in the east and Biji Square in the west, and the two squares are separated by tens of meters. They are all gatehouse-style wooden archways with upturned cornices, standing in the word "goods" with Zhongaifang.

After the completion of Jinma and Biji Square, it was destroyed by soldiers and rebuilt many times. In the 10th year of Guangxu (1884), Cen Yuying, governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, presided over the reconstruction of Jinmabi chicken coop, which was demolished in the late 1960s. In the old days, "resplendence" was once one of the "eight scenic spots" in Kunming. 1998 Kunming Municipal People's Government rebuilt Jinma Biji Square again during the reconstruction and expansion of Jinbi Road.
