Old photo album-Jinci, the victory of Sanjin

The Record of Jinci contains: Jinyang is the most important victory of Sanjin; The victory of Jinyang lies in Jinci. Jinci Temple was built in the Northern Wei Dynasty in memory of Zhou Wuwang's second son, Yu Ji. Jinci Temple, formerly known as Tang Shuyu Temple, is located at the foot of Xuanweng Mountain, 25 kilometers southwest of Taiyuan City. During the Western Zhou Dynasty (BC 1 1 century ~ BC 77 1 year), Song Ji, Zhou Chengwang, made his younger brother Yu Ji the Tang Shuyu of the Tang Dynasty. Its fief is in Yicheng, Shanxi Province today. After Yu's son Xie ascended the throne, due to the existence of Jinshui in China, the name of the country was changed to Jin, and the temple was also called Jinci. Jinci Temple is the earliest existing royal garden in China. There are dozens of ancient buildings in Jinci, with elegant environment and beautiful scenery. It is famous for its magnificent architecture and superb sculpture art, and the difficult old spring, maid statue and virgin statue in the shrine are known as "the three wonders of Jinci".

Laoyege, located in the right front of the main entrance of Jinci Temple, was built to commemorate it, and the locals called it Laoyege.

It is now a tourist center. Yingzhou is one of the legendary fairy mountains in the East China Sea of China.

In-Tae Kim, the four iron men, was cast in the fourth year of Shaosheng in the Northern Song Dynasty (1097). The Iron Man in the northeast corner was destroyed early and rebuilt in the second year of the Republic of China (19 13). Because iron belongs to hardware, it is called "golden platform".

Iron man is the patron saint of Jinci, representing towns and rivers. Four iron men each stood in a corner of the Golden Terrace, with a height of 225 cm, wearing a crown and armor, holding their heads high, their eyebrows erect and their eyes popping. Taichung Pavilion, built in the Ming Dynasty, is about three meters high.

Duiyue Square, built in the fourth year of Wanli in Ming Dynasty (1576), is 9.5 meters high, with four columns, three rooms and three floors, and covered with glazed tiles. This workshop was built for Gao Yingyuan, a juren from Taiyuan in the Ming Dynasty, to treat diseases and pray for God. The plaque "Duiyue" comes from The Book of Songs Zhou Song, which is a tribute to Zhou Wenwang and Zhou Wuwang. The plaque "Duiyue" was written by Gao Yingyuan, a famous calligrapher in Ming Dynasty, and it is one of the three famous plaques in Jinci.

The second floor of the Bell and Drum Tower, located on both sides of the Moon Square, was built in the thirty-fourth year of Ming Dynasty (1606). The two-story building has the same shape, with a stone abutment about 7 meters square and 3 meters high below, a wooden fence in the middle of the 12 colonnade as the four walls, double eaves crossing the top of the mountain, and a colored glazed tile at the top.

Not far from Duiyue Square is Xiandian. The altar is a place for offering sacrifices. Built in the reign of Jin Dading, it is three rooms wide and two rooms deep. There is no wall around it, there is a door in the middle of things, and other rooms only have fences. It is the only building in China that combines a hall with a pavilion. Later, Yuqiao Feiliang and Notre Dame were listed as the three national treasures of Jinci.

The former is a museum of real interest, the middle is a memorial hall, and the latter is Notre Dame.

Located on the west platform of Xiandian, a pair of iron lions were cast in the eighth year of Zhenghe in the Northern Song Dynasty (118). They are the earliest existing iron lions in China.

Fish pond flying beam, located behind the dedication hall and in front of Notre Dame, was built in the Song Dynasty, in the shape of a cross bridge, and was built on the pool water. In ancient times, the round man was a pool, while the square man was a marsh. There were many fish in the marsh, so it was called "fish marsh". Above the fish pond, "If you build a bridge, you can fly." So: "flying beam". This bridge has a unique shape and is called the ancient overpass. This form of Shizhu Bridge is the only existing ancient bridge in China and the third of the three wonders of Jinci ancient architecture.

Notre Dame, the main hall of Jinci, is one of the three wonders of ancient buildings in Jinci. It was built during the reign of Emperor Tiansheng of Song Dynasty (1023 ~ 1032) and rebuilt in the first year of Chongning (1 102).

The woodcarving Panlong on the front eaves column of Notre Dame was carved in the second year of Song Yuanyou (1087). Each of the eight dragons holds a big column, and they glare at it and have to scrape the scales. Although nearly a thousand years have passed, they are still alive and intact. The woodcarving Panlong is the earliest existing Panlong carved column in China, and it is the second of the three wonders of Jinci ancient architecture.

The virgin ginger, wearing a rockhopper and embroidered robe, sat in the rockhopper chair in the shrine.

Painted Maid, Notre Dame has 42 exquisite painted maid statues in the Song Dynasty (including 2 in the Ming Dynasty), which are life-size, graceful, unique and lifelike. Painted sculptures in the Song Dynasty are one of the three wonders of Jinci Temple, and the other two are Zhoubaitanghuai and South Lao Quan.

Of the 42 colored sculptures, 3 are eunuchs, 6 are men's and women's officials, and the rest are maids.

The colorful samurai sculptures on both sides of the temple gate are also quite distinctive.

South Lao Quan Pavilion was built in Tianbao period of Northern Qi Dynasty (550 ~ 560) and rebuilt in Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty (1522 ~ 1566). The pavilion is an octagonal pyramid-shaped roof with a diameter of 8 meters, with a dragon-shaped Leigong column hanging in the middle and a lotus hanging column hanging around it for two weeks. In the pavilion, there is a plaque inscribed by Fu Shan, "Difficult in Old Age". "It is difficult to get old" comes from the sentence "It is difficult to get old without tin" in the Book of Songs, which means that the spring water in Jinci is inexhaustible. The "Difficult Old" plaque is one of the three famous plaques in Jinci, and the "Difficult Old Spring" is one of the three wonders in Jinci, and is known as the "First Spring in Jinyang". Among the three major water sources in Shanxi, Nan Lao Quan is the main one, and the other two are Li Shan Quan and Yu Zhao Quan. Spring water gushed from the rock five meters below the horizon, and it kept flowing.

Li Shanchun Pavilion was built in Tianbao period of Northern Qi Dynasty (55 1 ~ 555) and rebuilt in Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty. It has an octagonal pyramid structure and covers an area of 72 square meters. Confronted with the south and north of South Lao Quan Pavilion, there is a plaque of "goodness and benefit" in the pavilion, and it is written in Laozi that "goodness is like water, and water benefits everything without dispute." Li Shanquan, also known as the eye of the North Sea, is the third largest water source in Shanxi.

Songshuige, located in the west of Bajiao Lianchi and east of Miaoyi Hall, was built in the late Qing Dynasty. The name "Songshui" comes from the meaning of Wang Wei's poem "Moonlight in the pine forest, crystal stone in the stream". The pavilion is rectangular in plane and three rooms wide, and the shed rests on the top of the mountain.

Gongbo Temple, commonly known as Luban Temple. The construction date is unknown, and it was rebuilt in the 25th year of Qingganlong (1760). Gong Zuozi, that is, Lu Ban, a native of Lu in the Spring and Autumn Period, was the ancestor of China's construction industry.

Jellyfish House, located next to Notre Dame de Jinci, also known as Crystal Palace, was built in the 24th year of Jiajing in Ming Dynasty (A.D. 1545) to worship the old and difficult spring god, one of the three springs at the source of Golden Water.

Zhenqu Pavilion, built in 5 years of the Republic of China (19 16), is located next to the Difficult Old Spring at the source of Jinshui River, which is the best location for the Difficult Old Spring Scenic Area to face the current Range Rover. The plane of the pavilion is slightly rectangular, with a single eaves resting on the top of the mountain and ear washing holes under it. All ears means you don't want to be an official. Overwashed ear holes are clear old springs. Ting Lian: I deeply see butterflies wearing flowers; Water dragonflies fly very slowly. It should be a poem in Du Fu's Two Poems of Qujiang.

Difficult old spring, located on the south side of Notre Dame Hall, flows out from the spring eye of Longkou and into the pool below. There is a curved bridge with holes and a Zhou Shi in the pool. The stone boat is called "no boat". Under the spring, a young monk carved with white marble holds a stone bowl and receives the spring water flowing from the spring. In ancient times, springs produced a lot of water, which could be used to irrigate rural fields.

A stone boat is not a boat.

Some people say that when you go to Jinci, you should see the three treasures, see the three wonders and enjoy three plaques. The three treasures are: Notre Dame Hall, Fish Pond Flying Beam and Sacrifice Hall; The three wonders are: Zhou Huai, painted sculptures in the Song Dynasty, and difficult old spring; The three plaques are "Difficult to Old", "Opposite to the Moon" and "Water Mirror Platform". This time, it was basically done. Only the water mirror platform is under maintenance, which is completely blocked and can't get in. The unexpected harvest of this trip was to see the peony in Jinci.
