Wonderful scenery is like "pearls"_Recommended must-see attractions in Zhuhai, everything starts from the Southern Song Dynasty... Doumen District, Zhuhai

When crossing the Lingding Ocean, one never misses the Lingding Ocean, which is intertwined with the "Three Heroes of the Late Song Dynasty" in Doumen, Zhuhai

Lingding Ocean = Lingding Ocean → "Crossing the Lingding Ocean" written by Wen Tianxiang, a great writer of the Southern Song Dynasty The place where Zhuhai, Macau and Hong Kong are now located is the Pearl River Estuary sandwiched between the three places.

As for the "Lingding Ocean" at the end of the Song Dynasty and the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, it was an estuary of yellow water full of small islands. There was a scene of the beautified Lingding Ocean in the 007 movie "The Man with the Golden Gun". (Movie scene: Phang Nga Bay, Thailand)

"Crossing the Lingding Ocean"

"Once the hardships are over, the stars are scattered all around.

The mountains and rivers are broken and the wind blows. Xu, life has been ups and downs.

I am afraid of being alone on the beach. I am alone in the ocean.

Since ancient times, no one has died, and his loyalty will be reflected in history. "

The most famous sentence is "No one has died since ancient times, and his loyalty will be remembered by history." I believe many people are like me.

I first listened to Wen Tianxiang's story, and then listened to "Crossing the Lingding Ocean" , this sentence was deeply engraved in my forehead once, and it cannot be erased or weathered.

This is the case every time I go to the mainland. In a century-old scene, the stories in the history books suddenly came to life...

(The following is an old man singing, not historical facts)

The Yuan Army During the southern invasion, the Empress Dowager Xie called on the world to be diligent, and Zhang Shijie, Wen Tianxiang, and Lu Xiufu, the "three heroes of the late Song Dynasty", responded with troops. Unfortunately, this group of inexperienced soldiers and generals could only helplessly retreat in the face of the Mongolian army.

The Yuan army captured Lin'an (now Hangzhou), the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, and captured the 5-year-old Song Gongzong. Lu Xiufu, Wen Tianxiang and others supported the young emperor (Duanzong ascended the throne at the age of 8) and continued to flee to the south. Danjong died of illness at the age of 11, and Zhao Bing was appointed as the young master. (It can also be regarded as holding the emperor hostage to command the world)

When Wen Tianxiang was defeated and captured in Haifeng (now Haifeng County, Guangdong), he was imprisoned and kidnapped to Dadu in the Yuan Dynasty. On the occasion of the warship of the Yuan Dynasty, Wen Tianxiang composed a seven-character poem. "Crossing the Lingding Ocean". (Cannons can't win, just scream with cannons)

In the end, the Southern Song Dynasty gathered the remaining forces and fought a life-or-death showdown with the Yuan army at the last stronghold of "Xinhui" (today's west of Zhuhai), known in history as the "Battle of Yashan" ” Both sides mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops and horses, thousands of warships, and temporarily surrounded the sea with sail walls.

Zhang Shijie led the last "King's Division" but was defeated. The warship sank and the bodies floated near Doumen (another theory said they floated to Hailing Island). Several remaining Southern Song Dynasty officials went to Doumen to build a golden platform. Temple, hiding in the temple to plot against the Yuan Dynasty. (Of course there is no use for three small roads)

Lu Xiufu was pacing anxiously in the military tent. The spies reported that "the Yuan army seized the country with a small power and a big power." Lu Xiufu knew that the situation was ruined, so he jumped behind his young master Zhao Bing In the sea, a group of concubines and ministers (fools) also died for the country, becoming a barren sea. The final chapter of the three heroes in the late Song Dynasty ended with the Southern Song Dynasty.

Let’s take a flight to Macau to start the journey of "Three Heroes of the Late Song Dynasty"?

After passing through Wen Tianxiang's Lingding Yang, and then finally arriving at Zhang Shijie's Jintai Temple, perhaps by accident, we passed by Lu Xiufu, who was carrying his young master on his back.

Jintai Temple is located on Huangyang Mountain in Doumen District, Zhuhai. It is the first of the eight scenic spots in Doumen District. The temple gate of Jintai Temple is located exactly between the two mountains on the left and right, like the guardians on the left and right, and like two green dragons. , forming a very spectacular pattern of holding beads in both hands, or two dragons playing with beads.

The eight major scenic spots are as follows. This time I went to 1. Jintai Temple, 2. Huangyang Mountain, 3. Jiexiazhuang, 6. Fuyi Temple (South Gate Ancestral Hall):

1. Jintai Temple,

2. Huangyang Mountain,

3. Jiexiazhuang,

4. Lantern Shashui Township,

5. Royal Hot Spring,

6. Fuyi Temple (South Gate Ancestral Hall),

7. Doumen Ancient Street,

8. Huang Family Temple Ancestral hall.

Jintai Temple, formerly known as Jintai Jingshe, is located in Doumen District, Zhuhai City, backed by Huangyang Mountain, the first peak of the Pearl River.

About an hour and a half drive from downtown Zhuhai, you will see the magnificent temple complex standing on the mountainside, which is particularly eye-catching. Surrounded by green trees, it is a treasure land with beautiful mountains and clear waters. .

The origin of its construction has just been explained a little bit. In addition to being the secluded residence of several Song Dynasty officials, it is also the revival base for their conspiracy to resist the Yuan Dynasty (just say it, since the Han Dynasty, there has been no A successful resurgence from the barbarians).

In the 37th year of Qianlong (1772 AD), Master Guangjing initiated the expansion of Jintai Temple. The couplet on the mountain gate of the temple is now commemorated by the couplet "The golden body is always there, the mirror is always bright". This promoter.

After the expansion, the Jintai Temple is very popular, but that Jintai Temple is not this Jintai Temple.

Today's Jintai Temple was rebuilt in the 1990s. This is of course true. It is difficult for any temple to survive the most turbulent 200 years in modern China?

In the 1970s, Jintai Temple had become a piece of ruins. It was not until the early 1990s that the new Jintai Temple was majestically rebuilt and once again stood on Huangyang Mountain.

Jintai Temple is a little different from other temples in the mainland. There is a lot of incense and pilgrims. There are monks in the temple regularly worshiping Buddha and teaching classes, and the religious atmosphere is strong.

Standing in front of the temple, you can see the Wuzhi Mountain on the Wangbao Reservoir (five hills floating on the reservoir). The connection between water and sky is a unique scene. From a distance, you can see the scenery of the entire Doumen Town.

Walking down the mountain is Doumen Town, the oldest district in Zhuhai, where we are about to visit Jiexia Village, the third of the eight scenic spots in Doumen.

The third of the eight scenic spots in Doumen is Jiexiazhuang. Jiexiazhuang is located about 2 kilometers west of Doumen Ancient Town, hidden in a beautiful mountain forest.

We are all unfamiliar with Taiwanese friends, right? But when we talk about the ATV Hong Kong drama "Love in the Sunny Day", which was staged in 1986, how many of our friends are starting to have some impressions? (I have no impression! Everyone: Mai lied~~).

The filming location of "Love in the Sunny Sky" was in Jiexiazhuang, but today I felt that it was a bit unreasonable. Jiexiazhuang is also called Zhaojiazhuang, which means that everyone in it has the surname Zhao. , but the male protagonist Ma Jingtao in the play plays a person whose surname is Fang...a bit of a conflict?

Forget it, life is like a play, play is not life.

(Picture/There is a moat-like "Huzhuang River" outside Jiexiazhuang. It has five gates, one of the gates before entering the village and crossing the river.)

There is Huzhuang River He is the only ancient settlement in Guangdong.

Jiexiazhuang has a history of more than 200 years. The architecture combines traditional Chinese and Western styles. There are dozens of large houses and a large stone road. However, everything in the village is quiet and almost deserted.

Jiexiazhuang was originally called Zhaojiazhuang. The clan members were engaged in the trade of traditional Chinese medicine. Jia Eryou was an official (also known as official-business collusion). At most, more than ten clan members were serving as officials in the Qing Dynasty at the same time.

Those who know a little about Feng Shui say that because the big stone road faces Xia Mountain and is prosperous due to the local atmosphere of Jie Xia Mountain, good people call this place Jie Xia Village.

The manor in its heyday was like the Grand View Garden in "A Dream of Red Mansions", with pavilions and pavilions decorated with green shirts and fragrant pink.

The Zhao family is rich and powerful, and it has its origins. The Doumen Zhao family is Zhao Kuangmei, the fourth brother of Song Taizu, a descendant of the Song royal family, known as the "Wei Wang Sect", how could it end up here? Probably because the Southern Song Dynasty chose Guangdong as its final stronghold, and many of the royal relatives came there for peace.

There is a local saying that "Zhaojiazhuang is in Xiangshan County", which means that the people in Zhaojia are better at doing business than people in Xiangshan. Xiangshan was the local county seat in the Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties, and Zhaojiazhuang in Doumen was just a border area. It's a small town, but the county magistrate is in awe of the Zhao family.

However, the Zhao family in Nanmen later declined, and Jiexiazhuang became an empty historical site.

There are vendors serving tourists in the village, and my grandmother sells bozi cakes.

Me: Grandma, is your surname Zhao?

Grandma: @#$^amp;*...(didn’t hear it at all)

What is bozi cake? It's a lot like konjac, with no flavor, but the red beans on top are the best.

It seems to be a snack for local children.

I checked online and found that the bowl cake is an authentic street snack in Guangdong, a must-have for honoring gods and ancestors. The Hong Kong bowl cake is made of rice flour and sugar, which is different from what I eat now.

Hello, Uncle, I know, you are selling longan, right? ?

Abo: @#$^amp;*......

Passerby A: This is yellow skin.

Yellow skin? It tastes a bit like grape*longan, smells bland and fragrant, and the pulp is a bit thinner.

After visiting Jiexiazhuang and chewing on the yellow skin, we went to the side of Liufuyi Temple (South Gate Ancestral Hall), one of the eight major scenic spots in Doumen.

In Nanmen Village, Doumen Town, the most famous building is Hanyi Hall. The full name of Hanyi Temple is Nanmen Zhao Family Ancestral Temple Hanyi Hall.

As mentioned in the previous paragraph, the Zhao family of Nanmen is the fourth brother of Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, King Wei: a descendant of Zhao Kuangmei.

From the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty to the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty only lasted for 97 years. In the end, there were still more than 10 years of rebellion by Zhu Stinky Touhou’s Red Scarf Army. It took less than 80 years for the Yuan Dynasty to become truly stable. Finally, the Southern Song Dynasty’s surviving ministers finally had the hope The Han people were born in the early days.

The current Hanyi Hall was built in the Ming Dynasty. In 1454 AD, Zhao Long, the 15th generation descendant of the King of Wei, established the temple in the name of his fourth ancestor, Zhao Meinan.

The most distinctive feature of Minyi Temple is that the gable is made of huge oyster shells.

This oyster shell wall represents the southern years of wealthy families, because the oyster shell wall It not only has sound insulation effect, but also is warm in winter and cool in summer, strong and durable, and is said to be able to withstand gun attacks.

The oyster shell wall is uneven, and the sunlight shines obliquely on the wall, giving it a sense of lines and sculptures...

★★The most important thing is, because the oyster shell is hard and There are many sharp edges like knives, which were the best anti-theft tools in ancient times. If a thief climbs up, his hands and feet will be cut to pieces.

The entire wall has a regular square array of oyster shells, using glutinous rice and yellow mud as adhesives. The wall is fully 65 centimeters thick. It is a characteristic building in the Pearl River area and can last for 5 to 6 hundred years without deterioration.

Hmm~ How many oysters do you need to eat to build this wall? You are really a rich person... "Oyster mansion, a mansion."

Banyi Temple consists of five buildings (three in the front and two in the back) and an open space in front of the ancestral hall.

There are various carvings on the eaves of the roof: stone carvings, brick carvings, wood carvings, pottery sculptures, clay sculptures, etc. The four walls are painted with landscapes, pines and bamboos, literati and poets, music, chess, poems and books, which can be Say fresh and elegant.

There is a plaque "Loyal, Filial and Righteous" on the back hall. When the Southern Song Dynasty was about to fall, Lu Xiufu and the young emperor Duanzong retreated to Xiangshan in Guangdong.

At that time, Zhao Ruozi, a descendant of Queen Wei in Nanmen Village, immediately recruited the residents of the village to prepare for King Qin. Lu Xiufu conferred Zhao Ruozi as a loyal and filial man.

The Southern Song Dynasty, the Young Emperor, Lu Xiufu... were crushed by the wheel of time in just a few years, leaving only the loyal deeds of the descendants of the Zhao family for people to pay tribute to.

But even the ancestral temple has become a tourist attraction, and the ancestral niches are empty. Where should the royal family and the descendants of the Zhao family go to worship their ancestors? How to pass down the friendship between ancestors?

Travel companion: "I heard that the glittering gold on this is real gold foil. Can you pick it off?"

Hmm~ Maybe it's enough to leave the gold foil for tourists.
