Brief introduction of Dujiangyan

Dujiangyan is a world cultural heritage (listed in the "World Cultural Heritage" list by UNESCO in 2000), a world natural heritage (giant panda habitat in Sichuan), a national key cultural relics protection unit, a national scenic spot and a national AAAAA-level tourist attraction.

Dujiangyan is located in the west of Dujiangyan City, Chengdu, Sichuan Province, on the Minjiang River in the west of Chengdu Plain. It was built in the last years of Zhao Haoqi in the Qin Dynasty (about 256 BC ~ 25 BC1year). It is a large-scale water conservancy project organized by Li Bing and his son, the magistrate of Shu County, on the basis of excavating the turtle spirit of their predecessors. It consists of a water-separating fish mouth, a sand-flying weir and a treasure bottle mouth.

For more than 2000 years, it has been playing the role of flood control and irrigation, making Chengdu Plain a "land of abundance" where people thousands of miles away suffer from floods and droughts and fertile fields. Up to now, the irrigation area has reached more than 30 counties and cities, covering an area of nearly 10 million mu. It is the oldest, only preserved and still in use in the world. It is characterized by water diversion without dam, which embodies the diligence, courage and wisdom of the ancient working people in China.

Dujiangyan Scenic Area mainly includes Fulongguan, Erwang Temple, Anlan Cable Bridge, Yuleiguan, Lidui Park, Leiyushan Park, Yunv Mountain, Lingyan Temple, Zhao Pu Temple, Cuiyuehu Lake and Dujiangyan Water Conservancy Project.

Extended information Dujiangyan scenic spot

1, fulongguan

Fulongguan is located in Lidui Park. It is next to a deep pool. According to legend, Li Bing and his son conquered the dragon here when they were controlling the water, so they changed their offerings to Li Bing in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty and named it "Fulongguan". There are three existing halls, in the front of which there is a stone statue of Li Bing carved in the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD 25-220).

There are also the ruins of the Eastern Han Dynasty weir stone tripod, and the scene when the sages and princesses in the Tang Dynasty became monks in Qingcheng Mountain. Fulongguan is also known as Laowang Temple, Gong Li Temple and Gong Li Temple. In the fifth year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty (A.D. 1866), the governor of Sichuan thought: "Although I am a saint, I don't eat before my father. The situation is meritorious to the public: there are also meritorious deeds to Shu, and merits can not be consolidated. Today, I have forgotten my ancestors, so I must hide my father's confusion. "

2. Anlansuo Bridge

An Lan Lock Bridge is also called "An Lan Bridge" and "Lovers Bridge". Located above the fish mouth of Dujiangyan, it spans the two rivers inside and outside, and is known as the "five ancient bridges in China", which is the most distinctive landscape of Dujiangyan. It was built before the Song Dynasty and was destroyed by war in the late Ming Dynasty (17th century). It was called "Zhupu Bridge" in ancient times, but it was changed to "Appraisal Bridge" in the first year of Song Chunhua, and the new bridge built in Jiaqing period of Qing Dynasty was renamed "An Lan Bridge".

The original cable bridge was supported by wooden rafts and stone piers, suspended by thick bamboo cables, with wooden boards as the deck and surrounded by bamboo cables on both sides, with a total length of about 500 meters. This bridge is a steel cable concrete pile.

3, lying iron

Sleeping iron is a sign of scouring beach buried in Fengqiwo in Neijiang, and it is also a sign of maintaining the depth of scouring riverbed in Neijiang every year. According to legend, when Li Bing built the weir, a stone horse was buried under the Neijiang river bed as the standard of the scouring depth of the annual beach, which later evolved into a lying iron.

The existing four sleeper irons were buried in the fourth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, the third year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty, the sixteenth year of the Republic of China and 1994. The replicas of these four lying irons that tourists can see at the fountain in the ancient garden are still buried under the Neijiang river bed.
