Zhang Lei, one of the four bachelor's degree students of Su-men in Song Dynasty, wrote a poem "Climbing the Tower of Haizhou", which said: The sky is clear outside the city, and the south mountain in the city faces Chengtou directly. Tian Yu River is rich in grains, which are cooked first and then cooked. The sea trees are windy and the leaves are easy to fall. From these four poems, we can see the general situation inside and outside Haizhou City. The Yuan Dynasty abolished Xicheng. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, there was a tucheng along the former site of Xicheng, and its boundary was on the flood plain of Ross River. So it is commonly known as Haimen in the east and Watergate in the west.
Ming Hongwu was stationed in Wang Wei for thirteen years and built a tucheng on the site of Xicheng. The local area began to build walls with bricks. In the sixteenth year of Yongle, Haizhou City built bricks, with a circumference of nine miles, 130 steps, about 4,600 meters, and a height of two feet, five feet and eight meters. These four doors are:
The East Gate is called Zhenhai because it is close to the sea.
Ximen Tonghe is called Linhuai.
The south gate is located on the high slope, facing Qushan, and is named Quyang.
The north gate faces Hongkou, which is called Lin Hong.
Wang Yu Temple is built on the west side of the north gate, which means to bring water to the town. The city bridge in the city is also called the fourth bridge, because the river leads to four gates. Shiqiao is a pier in the city, and the water in the east, south and north directions flows out from the west gate, so it is called Watergate.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Japanese invaded the coast and built cities. By the end of six years in Qin Long, the city wall had reached 10 foot thick, and 4-foot thick city bricks were pasted outside.
In the seventh year of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty, the earthquake in Tancheng, Shandong Province caused 23/ 10 damage to Haizhou City, and in the twenty-fourth year, it was flooded again, causing 67/ 10 collapse. During the reconstruction of Qianlong period, the ditch was deepened for waterproofing. After the Republic of China, Haizhou was changed to Donghai County. The county government has been in Haizhou, with a total length of 15. The west gate is prominent, and the city is divided into Confucian Temple and inkstone Bridge. Town population 12000 people.
As Haizhou is the administrative center of Haihe River irrigation in Jiangxi Province and the office of the administrative inspector of Jiangsu Eighth District, it is located in Tianhou Palace in the city and then moved to Xinpu. East of Tianhou Palace is the seat of Donghai County Government, and then moved to Yinger Lane. The whole sea city is obviously divided into two parts, with the Drum Tower in the middle.

As a result of the Japanese bombing and three fires, precious cultural relics and ancient buildings, such as Sanyuan Emperor (Yao Shunyu) and thousands of Buddhist scriptures, were reduced to ashes except Lingguan Hall.
