1906 (thirty-two years of Guangxu), after Zhao Pingfan resigned as a canon of history in Ma Ping County, he planted flowers and trees inside and outside Liu Hou Temple to beautify the environment. On a sunny autumn day, a chrysanthemum party was held at the bank of Luochi. Deng Zihui, the president of the local celebrity Longcheng Qiushi Society, gave a poem and sang. Participants suggested that the surrounding area of Liu Hou Temple should be turned into a garden scenic spot for citizens' leisure. When Liu Ren heard this, Zhao Pingfan jumped up and led his second son to open up the garden, repair the flower path (osmanthus road) and deepen Luochi. Lead two sons to Luochi to collect silt. Later, he rode a horse or took a sedan chair on time to Luzhai Zhongdu, Luo Rong, Liucheng Dongquan and other places to collect the rent of Liu Hou Temple in each county. The road is blue, and it is the first to contribute.
Liuzhou Liu Hou Park was established on 1906. In the same year, parks were also built in other places, including the affiliated park of Beijing Agricultural Experimental Field, Shenyang Wanquan Park and Wuxi Chengzhong Park (all the earliest parks in the area). Shanghai (1868), Tianjin (1887), Qijihar in Heilongjiang (1897), Jinan in Tianjin and Dandong in Liuzhou were one or two years earlier. The earliest Huangpu Park in Guangzhou (19 10) is found in cities in South China, Central China, Southwest China and Northwest China, and Liu Hou Park in Liuzhou is the earliest.
1907 (thirty-three years of Guangxu) 1 1, the newly transferred Liuzhou magistrate Yang Daolin took office. In 2005, Yang Daolin went abroad with five ministers (more than half a year), visited nine countries including Japan, Britain, France, Germany, Russia and the United States, and visited parks in Italy, Austria and Japan. To work in Liuzhou,
Declared: "The magistrate of a county held a meeting with the gentry to establish Liu Hou Park, which is modeled after Japanese parks, as a place for the county scholars to rest." (Yang Daolin was an enlightenment school in the Qing Dynasty at that time, and went abroad to broaden his horizons. Only if you are so enthusiastic about parks can Liuzhou have parks earlier in the country, and the weather is in line with the world trend. People around Liu Hou Temple and Liuzhou people are not conservative. Yang Daolin put forward eight measures:
First, build an observation deck. Second, take care of the fruit trees. Third, dredge Luochi, raise fish and build bridges. Fourth, connect two pools and plant lotus flowers. 5. Repair the citrus pavilion. Sixth, build three buildings in the south. Seven, all kinds of hibiscus and bamboo are enclosed to form a fence. Eight, building roads, piling up like mountains.

They also "helped to send bamboo and flowers, and there was an endless stream." Yang Daolin also selected capable soldiers to help in the park. And allocated some building materials originally planned to be built outside the south wall of Luochi City.
Yang Daolin drew up the first rule 14 of Liu Hou Park:
The purpose of the park is to play with the people. All men, women and children can go to the park. The gazebo is cool, where you can sit more, so that you can have a rest. Men should make way for women, young people should make way for old people, and the former should make way for the latter, so as to preserve customs and habits.
Liu Zongyuan and Liu Hou Park
Liu Hou Park was officially named in 1909 (Xuantongyuan Year). Yang Daolin said: "There is a park next to the temple (Liu Hou), which is named after Liu Hou and won the hearts of the people." Liu Zongyuan served as the secretariat of Liuzhou in the Tang Dynasty and did many good things for Liuzhou. 1 100, Liuzhou people made sacrifices in the Spring and Autumn Period, and they will never forget them. (In response to Han Yu's words, "I have never slackened my efforts in reporting things, and I will respect the world from now on." ) Luochi was Liu Zongyuan's favorite scenic spot before his death. His Ministry will say that Liu Hou has a thousand dreams, "I am in Luochi." Accordingly, Liuzhou people built a Luochi Temple next to Luochi, which is now Liu Hou Temple.

(The rubbings of the Three Juebei of Northwest University, the temple tablet is copied from the rubbings of Japanese calligraphy and Taoism, and the authenticity of stone carvings: the fake wins the truth. Song Siren, a Taoist Taiwanese sweeper, moved to his hometown in Zhejiang and brought the original back to his hometown. The returned academy yamen was burned by the fire of the Republic of China, and it was carved in a week. 1962, King National Cultural Heritage Administration told Xian Guangwei that it was collected by the Paris Museum. )
