The Shihai Fire Temple is still closed and closed to the public, so it will take some time.
Shichahai in Beijing includes three waters: West Sea, Houhai Sea and Qianhai Sea. It is said that there are ten ancient temples around, and Shichahai is written as Shichahai.
The front coast of Haixi is a summer resort for Beijingers. In the 1920s, a market mainly dealing in Beijing snacks and antiques began to take shape. The lotus market is named after the water surface of Qianhai is covered with lotus flowers, weeping willows on the shore and excellent scenery.
After 1949, the lotus market gradually declined and eventually disappeared. 1990, the open lotus market was rebuilt, and the famous calligrapher Qi Gong inscribed the "Lotus Market" plaque and hung it on the original Haixi Street archway.
200 1 Lotus Market was transformed into a two-story antique building, and a wooden plank road with a width of about 4 meters and a length of more than 200 meters was opened on the waterfront side, gradually forming a pedestrian commercial street featuring a simple style tea bar.
On July 20 17, the adjustment of lotus market format and the renovation of Lin Hu store facade began, and it was completed on June 20 19.
After the Tonghui River dug in Guo Shoujing in the Yuan Dynasty was opened to traffic in 1292, Shichahai became the end of the northern section of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, surrounded by the prosperous business district in the Yuan Dynasty, and became one of the few international metropolises in the world at that time.
Due to the COVID-19 epidemic, the road from the northern end of Jinding Bridge to the original Haidong Fire Temple was closed, and the Fire Temple was closed from 0: 00 on June 24th, 2020.
