Taozhu Ancient City is famous for its pit Japanese hero General Qi Jiguang's great defeat of the Japanese. It was built in the eighth year of Ming Dynasty, and was personally supervised by Jiao Hong, the right assistant minister of the household department. It was the key point of entering Taizhou Fucheng from the sea in ancient times, and its military position was very important and extremely dangerous. At that time, there were 41 health centers in the southeast coast of Zhejiang Province to fight against Japanese invaders, and Taozhu City was one of them. According to the garrison, the Ming army was organized by 112 people with 1 households, the chief called 1 households and 112 people with 1 households, which belonged to the jurisdiction of the sea guard. The ancient city was originally 2 feet high and 7 paces around, with a platform and a building on it, which was extremely strong. Now the average height is 4.5 meters, the circumference is 14 meters, and the city base is 1 meters wide. There are three gates, east, south and west. There is a urn outside the gate, and the gate is opened, that is, they are both two gates into the city. Pu Shu, with the same size and similar shape on the east and west gates, is elegant in shape and natural. Although this Pu Shu on the edge of the East Wengcheng is old, it is still vigorous and tall. According to the cloud, two Pu Shu trees on the east and west side of the city are more than 3 meters tall, and their trunks are 1.5 meters in diameter, showing the shape of umbrellas. After more than 5 years of wind and rain, it is now full of vitality, symbolizing the eternal prosperity of Taozhu, so later generations call it Feng Shui Tree.
The Anti-Japanese Exhibition Hall was established to commemorate the immortal feats of Qi Jiguang, a famous anti-Japanese soldier, who fought in the north and south, wiped out the Japanese invaders, defended the country and the people, inspired patriotic feelings, strengthened revolutionary traditional education, and played the role of historical relics in socialist economic construction. The exhibition hall was built in April 1993, covering an area of over 9 square meters. The platform door with the surrounding walls imitating Ming architecture was inscribed by the famous calligrapher Mr. Lu Lequn: Taozhu Anti-Japanese Exhibition Hall, and the couplets on both sides were sealed by Mr. Wang and Mr. Wang of Qi Jiguang Memorial Hall in Jiaojiang City: Taozhu was the forerunner of Wan Li Great Wall, and Fujian and Zhejiang were the heroes of the Chinese nation. Li Chengchang, deputy secretary of Taizhou prefectural Committee, wrote the inscription; There is no need to visit Chibi when the door couplet remembers the past. Whoever resists Taozhu is the handwriting of General Zhang Chongwen. Walking into the exhibition hall, there stood a statue of Qi Jiguang against the face, lined with murals in the distant mountains and near the water in Taozhu City, which was heroic and bold. The exhibition hall is divided into five rooms, the East Room is the historical materials of cultural relics, and the city bricks, Qi Jiguang Monument, Saber and Yuanyang Array are displayed. The East Second Room is a celebrity painting and calligraphy, displaying famous paintings and calligraphy works mainly in Taizhou; The West Room 1 is a group painting of Taizhou, Qi Jiguang, which systematically and briefly reflects the whole process of Qi Jiguang's anti-Japanese war in Taizhou. There are 2 paintings, and the West Room 2 is Taozhu scenery, which displays the beautiful seaside scenery of Taozhu, with 43 color expansion group paintings.
The eastern foot of Housuo Mountain in the city is called Hejiao because the hillside rises like Jiao, and there are often cranes living here. The academy built here is naturally called Hejiao Academy. Hejiao Academy, which was built in the 15th year of Qianlong in Qing Dynasty, was burned by fire in the 25th year of Jiaqing, and was rebuilt by Lang Zhengzhai, a city dweller. Now, the ancient maple invades the air, the cypress is dense, and the site is quiet and quiet, but the scale of the Academy is gone. There have been many famous modern educators here, and Lin Disheng, a consultant of the State Education Commission, studied in this academy. Yang Zhenyi, an outstanding figure of the Xinhai Revolution in Taizhou, once served as the head of the academy here. The location here is just above the anti-Japanese exhibition hall, southeast of Tianfei Palace, and it is inscribed by General Zhang Zongwen, former deputy director of the Political Department of the Railway Corps, in 199.
Tianfei Palace was built in the early years of Ming Dynasty, and it was built and burned repeatedly. The Tianfei Palace, which is now preserved, has three temples, facing east and west. Tianfei Palace was located at the top of the cliff in ancient times, facing the vast ocean, which was beneficial to maritime merchants and fishermen, and most of them were from Fujian. They believed in Tian Fei, the sea god, and prayed for the protection of Tian Fei in order to avoid the storm. Therefore, Tianfei Palace was originally built by Fujian people. After more than 5 years, the passage of time has changed, and the devout people believe in Tian Fei Weiling day by day, burning incense at dawn and offering sacrifices at four o'clock, and the incense is flourishing. The stone pillar lantern next to the east side of the back wall of Tianfei Palace is 2.8 meters high, square and 2 centimeters wide. Square stones with a height of 15 cm and a width of 45 cm are installed at the end of the column, which are used for placing lamps. The four sides of the stone column are engraved with Sakyamuni Buddha of Nanwu, Huayanjing Buddha of Nanwu Dafa, Lianhua Jing of Nanwu Mahayana, and four Buddha names of Buddha and Bodhisattva at Nanwu Huayan Meeting, in order to pray for Buddha protection. Because of the long-term exposure to wind and rain, the moss is green and the handwriting is eroded, but it can be distinguished. According to the cloud, Shizhu Sky Lantern was set up at the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty for merchants and fishermen. It is lit at dusk and brightly lit all night: first, it prompts the location and place name; Second, reveal the reef and pay attention to safety. In front of it is the site of the East Enemy Platform, which is the commanding height of Taozhu City, commonly known as Xidi. The enemy platform is a lookout platform, which can watch the enemy's dynamics. There are buildings on the east and west enemy platforms. It is said that it was the enemy platform in Beijing or Qi Jiguang who took it from Taozhu. The ruins of the east enemy platform are towering, and the surrounding historical sites can be seen in a panoramic view: First, you can see the beacon tower, also known as the beacon tower, which is independent of the Shangtang Mountain, and is an ancient war alarm facility; Second, overlooking the thirteen islands of Taojiang River, you can see the scenery of the water town where the five dragons grab pearls; Sanneng Jimu Jiangtai Mountain in the northern suburb of Beishan. Looking eastward at the head of Taozhu City, the towering stone castle independent of the top of Shangtang Mountain is the beacon tower. Beacon tower, also known as beacon tower, was an alarm facility in ancient wars. Found the enemy coming, burning smoke in the sun city, burning light at night, and quickly transmitting information. There are 7 beacon towers related to Taozhu City, all of which were set up in Shangtang in the Ming Dynasty to resist the Japanese invasion.
At that time, she belonged to Taozhu Qianhu Office, which was the most complete one in existence. The abutment was 9 meters square and the abutment was 6 meters square, all of which were made of stones. This is the site of Cliff Stone Carving overlooking the distance. The inscription is Hu Hai, a general of Ming and Chu, with the word Ocean and Dingyuan. Hong Wujin attacked Luzhou with general Xu Da. He was brave and good at fighting, covered with golden sores, and made great contributions. It has been described by the predecessors that there is a huge stone on the top of the mountain, such as a plate, holding out the cloud table. With a virtual view, the sea is wide and the sky is low, and the sky is boundless. When the sky is shining, it can be seen at a glance for dozens of miles. He also wrote a poem: the sea is full of mulberry flowers, and the cliff is better than Hu Gong. Silver hooks and iron paintings are really beautiful, and they are still seen in the past. Located on the west side of Diaoyuan Cliff, the monument protection pavilion was built in 1986 to protect the stone tablet of the Ming Dynasty's "Monument to the Newly Built Enemy Platform". The pavilion is flying in the air on the dangerous cliff, which is abrupt and kit kat. She is an imitation Ming-style building with an elegant and exquisite structure. In the middle of the pavilion, there stands a stone tablet with a base of .31 meters high, a tablet height of 1.6 meters, a width of .83 meters and a thickness of .11 meters, engraved with the inscription on the newly-built enemy platform.
In Wansongjing, southwest of the Monument Pavilion, Zhenhai is written in regular script with no inscription beside it, but the font style and size are similar to those of Diaoyuan. According to the handwriting of Bao Damou, a calligrapher in the Ming Dynasty, he mainly praised the achievements of General Qi in turning the war to the north and south and wiping out the enemy. The predecessors once wrote poems: Calm the rock border for hundreds of years, and the dragon is in full swing. Bao Gongjian's pen is always there, and half of it is covered with moss. There is a 15-year-old couple pine which grows two trunks on the same foundation at the edge of the city. The tree branches .3 meters from the ground. The two trees are more than 2 meters high and the trunk is .4 meters in diameter. It grows in a shape of a bell, inclines and bends upward, and is covered with Long Lin spots, but it is full of interest. The branches and crowns of the two trees crisscross each other and look around. The female trunk has strong branches and green needles, and two branches bent like arms grow at the fork of 9 meters, trying to hug the male tree around the waist; When the male tree diverges 12 meters, a branch grows like a long arm and reaches out to the female tree. You help me to help each other and care for each other. From a distance, it looks like a tree, like a green pile, which is a couple of birthday girls. Ok, now let's look north. This is the former site of Zuoying garrison yamen in Qing Dynasty. In the Qing Dynasty, green camp, the commander in chief of the army, was a five-product military attache, who was called camp garrison. During the Xinyou period of Xianfeng, the Zuoying garrison yamen in the county city was on fire. In the seventh year of Tongzhi, the county chief Liu Wangaoqing moved here and allocated funds to build the department. The tinker used to be a martial arts field, but now it has become a township enterprise, where there is a boundary pillar of Zuoying University tinker. Unconsciously, we came to Hualong Canal. More than 6 years ago, when the Taozhu city wall was not built, the mountain behind the stream flowed out. After the city was built, the stream was diverted from the west to cross the east, just at the foot of the west city. The original bridge was named Hualong Bridge. It is said that there is a huge stone under the bridge, which is engraved with the word Hua, which is the dragon touch. This stone has been buried at the bottom of the canal. In order to solve this eternal mystery, the villagers organized excavation, and sure enough, they found a huge stone with a north-south frame, only three or five feet, with characters on it, correct and vigorous, and no inscription beside it. It was really strange. There is also a fairy tale here.
Next, let's visit the ancient streets and buildings in Taozhu City. Taozhu City is a cultural landscape in the Ming Dynasty, with ancient streets and antique buildings. The buildings in the Ming Dynasty are generally simple and generous, but those giants are not elegant and magnificent. The street we are taking now is Taozhu Ancient Street, which still retains the original pattern of the ancient streets and lanes in the Ming Dynasty. The ancient street runs through the east and west cities, like a slow Youlong shape, and crosses the main roadway connecting the yamen and the south gate. At the intersection, the Drum Tower is towering, and there are 1 Gu Xiang in the second place and 5 in the north and south, which are arranged along the street and cross. There is an ancient road, which is arc-shaped, surrounding the southeast and the inner side of the west city. There are many ancient buildings in Taozhu City, which are generally simple and generous in Ming Dynasty, but those giants are not elegant and magnificent. The well-preserved ancient buildings in the city are Langdefeng, Langjia and Liuzhai.
the ancient residence of lang defeng was built in Guangxu period of Qing dynasty by lang gongziheng, the ninth descendant of lang. The ancient house * * * has 3 buildings and 22 bungalows. The house covers the east, north and west, and there is a complete quadrangle in the middle, with a large scale and an area of 3,2 square meters. Langjia's ancient house was built in the light years of Qing Dynasty, and was built by Langgong Yichang, the eighth descendant of Langshi. The ancient house has two entrance doors, spacious and tall, with an open vestibule, and houses in the east, north and west. This complete quadrangle covers an area of 2,5 square meters. The biggest feature of this courtyard is simple and solemn architecture, carved beams and painted buildings, cornices and upturned corners, especially the wood carvings of the window lattice and Liangfang. Exquisite carving, especially the woodcut high relief of the corridor stigma, such as the deer turning back, the dragon walking the lion, the unicorn, etc., seems to be chaotic and simple, and it doesn't even have door pillows on both sides of the door sill, which is firm, convenient and elegant, which shows its great boldness. However, when we look at these ancient buildings today, they all fully show the wisdom and superb skills of the ancient working people.
Liu's ancient house was built in the late Ming Dynasty by the fifth generation of Liu's descendants. During the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, Liu Gongzi Han, the twelfth generation of Liu's descendants, was admitted to the Dongtai Gate of Wuju. The plaque of Wu Kui was hung above the gate, and there were two columns on both sides of the gate, and there were original flagpoles with stars. Liu's ancient residence is a three-entrance platform door, which is different from Langzhai. The platform door is open, divided into upper and lower floors, with a hall number inside, a house cover in the north and west, and a platform door without an external barrier screen in the east and west, forming a complete quadrangle with an area of 1,8 square meters. It is a Ming dynasty building, which looks ancient. Each column is drum-shaped, and the stigma has stars. The wood carvings on the beams, window sills and colonnades are exquisitely crafted and exquisitely carved. The stone carvings on the walls and windows, such as Lang's ancient house, are dazzling and amazing. There is also a stone slab on the patio ground, which is like a pattern.
