About Linfen

Linfen has a long history and is one of the important birthplaces of the Chinese nation and the cradle of the Yellow River Civilization. Known as the "First Capital of China". According to historical records, about 4,500 years ago, Yao "was granted the title of Tang" and "traveled to Tao", also known as his family name. "Yao ruled Pingyang and ruled the world."

I personally recommend going to Linfen and Hongdong. They are close to each other and have convenient transportation. However, the scenic spots are scattered and some are remote.

External transportation: The most convenient way to get to Linfen and Hongdong is the high-speed rail. The high-speed rail stations are Linfen West and Hongdong West. The railway line is Taiyuan-Xi'an Line.

Inner city transportation: The buses in Linfen and Hongdong are very convenient, and most scenic spots can be reached directly. In addition, Alipay can also be used on Linfen Bus.

Guangsheng Temple

Guangsheng Temple is located in Guangsheng Temple Town at the foot of Huoshan Mountain, 17 kilometers northeast of Hongdong County. There are bus lines 21 and 22 in Hongdong County. It takes about an hour to take a bus from Hongdong County to Guangsheng Temple.

The Guangsheng Temple Scenic Area consists of five parts, namely the upper temple of Guangsheng Temple on Huoshan Mountain, the lower temple of Guangsheng Temple at the foot of Huoshan Mountain, the water temple, the living spring, and the water-sharing pavilion.

Guangsheng Temple was built in the Eastern Han Dynasty. During the Song and Jin Dynasties, Guangsheng Temple was burned down by soldiers and rebuilt. In the earthquake of the Yuan Dynasty, all temple buildings were destroyed and then rebuilt. The current Guangsheng Temple was built in the Yuan Dynasty except for the Shangsi Hongfei Pagoda and the Main Hall, which were rebuilt in the Ming Dynasty. Its Hongfei Pagoda, "Zhao Cheng Jin Zang" and Yuan Dynasty murals in Shuimiao Temple are also known as the "Three Wonders of Guangsheng" and are world-famous.

Hongtong Big Locust Tree Ancestor Memorial Garden

Hongtong Locust Tree Roots Ancestral Hall is located in Hongtong County and can be reached by multiple buses.

The Hongdong Big Locust Tree Root-seeking and Ancestor Worshiping Garden is the only sacred place in China with the theme of "root-seeking" and "ancestral worship". The scenic area is divided into four themed areas: immigration historical site area, ancestor worship area, folk tourism area, and Fenhe ecological area. In addition, there will be live performances at different times.

The Hongdong Locust Tree Root-Seeking Ancestral Garden is very famous and has a very high status in people's hearts. But if you just play it, there won’t be much to see. The entire scenic spot was rebuilt from the original site in modern times, with only the classic stone buildings of the Jin Dynasty, thousand-year-old locust trees and second- and third-generation locust trees on display.

In fact, the entire focus of visiting the park is on the spiritual level, which fully reflects the Chinese people's attachment to their hometown and their spiritual sustenance for their homeland. This is the most deep-rooted spirit of "family" and "roots" in China, passed down from generation to generation.

It includes the main mausoleum and the auxiliary mausoleum, with a height of 45 meters and a circumference of 40 to 50 meters. , covering an area of ??approximately 36,000 square meters. In the early Tang Dynasty, Feng Tuo rebuilt the original temple with the specifications of a "national temple", and the scale even exceeded the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum, reaching 1.26 times. After the Tang Dynasty, there were many repairs. In the mausoleum area, there are two monuments from the 6th year of Kaibao in the Song Dynasty (973) and the 14th year of the Yuan Dynasty (1277), three ancient cypresses that are more than 3,000 years old, a "Sky Mending Stone", and more than 30 stone steles from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is the only national temple where emperors worshiped Nuwa since the Tang and Song Dynasties.

The original building of Nuwa Mausoleum no longer exists. Over the years, due to social and historical reasons, the "Nuwa Imperial Mausoleum" in Zhaochenghou Village, Hongdong County has been destroyed beyond recognition. The main building was demolished during the Liberation War and the rest in the early 1980s. Later, only half of Nuwa's main and auxiliary tombs were left, surrounded by residential buildings. The once-prominent national temple "Huangxian Temple" was long-term occupied by the Houcun sect.
