Yuji Palace is one of the three major attractions in Wuhan Qingchuan Pavilion Scenic Area. It has a long history of more than 800 years and a profound cultural heritage. It was built in the Southern Song Dynasty. After continuous maintenance and repairs in the Qing Dynasty, it is still well preserved and has become a well-known local attraction. Here's a detailed strategy guide.
But what impressed me the most was the Wangyu Temple on the bank of the Yangtze River, which is now the "Yuji Palace". Built in Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, the existing buildings were renovated in the third year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty. It is one of the few representative wooden structures of the Qing Dynasty in Wuhan, and it is also the place where Dayu was worshiped in the past dynasties in Wuhan. It has a history of more than 800 years.
Together with Qingchuan Pavilion and Tiemenguan, it forms the Qingchuan Pavilion Scenic Area, which is known as one of the three major scenic spots in Wuhan. It is one of the first main buildings that catch the eye when entering the scenic spot.
Tomorrow, "Wang Yu Temple" will be renamed "Yu Ji Gong Hang". On the basis of the original sacrifice to Dayu, 18 legendary sages such as Hou Ji, Bayuan and Bakai will be sacrificed. In the fifth year of the Apocalypse, Huguang political envoy Zhang Yuanfang wrote an inscription for Yuji Palace, and the name of Yuji Palace has been passed down since then.
During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, Fan Juzhen, the prefect of Hanyang, built a Qingchuan Pavilion when repairing the Yuji Palace. Because of the poem of Cui Hao, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, "A tree in Hanyang becomes clear water, and a tree in Parrot Island becomes clear water." It is named after "Woshuang".
In the third year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty, Yuji Palace was rebuilt again and consisted of the main hall, the front hall, the left and right verandahs and the patio. In the 1980s, the palace was overhauled again. After careful restoration, the Yuji Palace, painted red and decorated with carved beams and painted beams, is antique, attracting many young people to come here for wedding photography, costume photo shooting, Hanfu tourism shooting, etc.
Under the blue sky, in front of Yuji Palace, there are lush trees, not many tourists, and the elegant environment, accompanied by the breeze of the river, is really refreshing. White walls and green tiles, standing by the river, the beauty of light and shadow under the shade of trees, is full of ancient charm.
Walking into the palace and standing underground, I saw on both sides of the corridor of the main hall were iron oxen for water control and iron bells for sacrificial offerings, and there was an iron tripod in the courtyard. Above the exhibition hall is a book inscribed by the modern calligrapher Sha Menghai: "The Great Sages of the Past". There are couplets inscribed by Liu Haisu, a master of calligraphy and painting, on the corridor pillars: Three visits to the door, wasted appointment as a new Jiagui; eight years ago, Pingcheng River, Han River, Jianghuai River.
There is a fiberglass statue of Dayu in the center of the hall, with the "Picture of Yu's Traces" on the background, and a giant plaque of "Depei World" hanging on it. Various materials commemorating Dayu's flood control are also displayed.
Yu is recognized as the originator of water conservancy in all dynasties. The first emperor of Qin once "in memory of Yu the Great, sat in the South China Sea and erected stone carvings praising the virtues of Qin", which was the first of the emperor's personal sacrifices. Since then, official and private activities to worship Yu continued for a long time. To this day, worship and commemoration of Dayu are still very popular.
In addition to Yuji Palace, there are also Chubo Pavilion, Jingchu Xiongfeng Monument, Chaozong Pavilion, Yu Monument, etc. in the scenic area. Among them, Chuboting was built in the Ming Dynasty to commemorate Dayu's flood control. The pavilion was rebuilt in 1986 and is a fan-shaped warm pavilion.
The "Chu Xiongfeng Stele" was engraved in the 35th year of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty and was written by Ba Li, the observer in southern Beijing. The inscription is intended to praise the people of Jingchu for their fighting spirit against floods.
It is said that this Chaozong Pavilion was built here by Dayu after he successfully controlled the floods. From 755 to 79,000 years ago, there is a saying that Dayu controlled the floods, and "the Jianghan Dynasty lived in the sea." There is a couplet on "Chaozong Pavilion": The mountains divert the rain in the West Wu Gorge, and the rivers press the Haimen tide in the east. Standing on the bank of the Yangtze River, we couldn't help but notice how majestic and majestic this couplet was.
But it is still a jade monument with a great history. Jian, a famous scholar in the Qing Dynasty, experienced ups and downs in his life
But the story of Dayu's flood control is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and is admired by the common people. From then on, Yu's monument became famous all over the world, and people imitated it on famous mountains and rivers all over the country.
