Protection measures of Antarctic incense temple

This thousand-year-old temple is in ruins.

The first thing that comes into view in the temple is the slogan written on the wall of Dangyang Hall: "Cultural relics are important, no admittance for idle people, beware of dog bites". I saw the temple overgrown with weeds, even on the top of nave and Yuanmingtang, some of them were more than a foot high. Bird droppings and animal droppings can be seen everywhere, and there is an unpleasant smell in the air. Look at the bell and drum tower, the annex hall and the meditation room on both sides, only to see the doors and windows cracked, the rafters rotted and the bricks were broken. This scene gives people a feeling of "I miss heaven and earth, boundless, boundless, lonely and tearful".

Bypass Dangyang Hall and enter Yuanming Hall. I saw a big incense burner in front of the temple, which was 500 Jin long and filled with incense ashes. There are many red cloth strips and plaques hanging on the main wall of Yuanming Hall, which read "Send a child to Guanyin" and "Eliminate diseases with medicine".

The most precious cultural relics of the incense temple in Antarctica are murals. Entering the Yuanming Hall, it was dark and wet, and I couldn't see my fingers. The accompanying village Committee director told us with a flashlight that the age of mural creation was ominous, and most of the contents were related to Buddhism. Experts from Beijing and South Korea have made textual research, and they all agree that these murals are not only of high artistic value, but also helpful to the study of ancient Buddhism in China. Now most murals can't be seen clearly. There are many reasons. During the Cultural Revolution, Yuanming Temple was collectively used as a warehouse for storing grain, and some of it was corroded. After the Cultural Revolution, can it be preserved well because it was not repaired in time, eroded by wind and stripped by rain, and bitten by rats?

Precious cultural relics have been stolen repeatedly.

The defaced murals can be simulated and repaired, but the precious cultural relics stolen by thieves have not been recovered so far, which is heartbreaking.

There are almost no glass products left on the top of Nanjixiang Temple. Especially when the heads of the central scroll and Yuanmingtang are pushed like bald heads, the spine, the spine brake, the kissing beast and the square heart are gone. These are the masterpieces of thieves!

During the Cultural Revolution, all the people were recruited as soldiers. The local militia practiced guns with the main ridge, the ridge brake and the kissing beast at the top of the temple as the target, which destroyed many things. Even so, the thieves didn't let go. They stole the masseur with bullet holes and sold it. /kloc-one night in 0/990, thieves stole two ridge brakes on the top of Yuanming Hall while it was dark. This is the first time that Nan Jixiang was stolen. Perhaps because the case was not solved, the thief became more and more courageous. Since then, theft incidents have occurred one after another. Up to now, none of the stolen cultural relics have been recovered.

In recent years, thefts in temples have decreased for two reasons. First, there are fewer cultural relics left behind, and there are almost no things that thieves can take. Second, the cultural relics department installed anti-theft facilities.

All-out rescue is urgent.

Until the early liberation, the protection of the incense temple in Antarctica was very complete. There used to be a big clock in the temple, which weighed thousands of kilograms. During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, the Japanese invaders tried to transport it back to Japan, but it was too big and heavy, and the journey was too long. Unexpectedly, during the steelmaking at 1958, someone in the village poured cold water, lit a fire and smashed the steelmaking. At present, there is only one big clock in Beijixiang Temple in Yili Town. There are still a large number of statues in the temple, which were also destroyed by "capitalism" during the Cultural Revolution. In order to protect the incense temple in Antarctica, local village cadres have reported to the cultural relics department many times. However, it has not been implemented because of the large funding gap.

The cultural relics department spent more than 3 million yuan to repair the Antarctic incense temple.

At present, the main buildings of the incense temple in Antarctica are still well preserved, but they have been used for other purposes. Among them, only the Dangyang Hall, the oldest of the three halls, has remained its original appearance, the mountain gate has been transformed into a supply and marketing cooperative, the Yuanming Hall has been transformed into a warehouse, and the affiliated hall and meditation room are miserable scenes of broken doors and windows, rotten eaves and broken bricks. Besides, there is only one empty bell tower left in the bell and drum tower of the temple. The original clock of the bell tower was used to smelt steel at 1958. At that time, villagers poured cold water on it, which caused a fire. After the explosion, the steel was smelted, but the Drum Tower in the east no longer exists.

Because the mountain gate and Dangyang Hall are being repaired, the reporter only walked into the Yuanming Hall of Nanjixiang Temple. The statues in the hall no longer exist, and some murals are damaged and corroded. Even so, the reporter found many paintings on the beams of Yuanming Temple. Most of the paintings are golden dragons with five claws, which are vivid and exquisite. From this, we may feel the prosperity of the incense temple in Antarctica.

There are almost no original glass products left at the top of each temple. Especially when the main ridge, the spine brake, the kissing beast, the nave and the square center on the top of Yuanming Hall become the targets of thieves. It was not until the cultural relics department installed anti-theft facilities that the theft of cultural relics in Xiangsi Temple in Antarctica improved.

The present situation of the incense temple in Antarctica has also attracted the attention of the cultural relics department. Over the years, the cultural relics department has repeatedly allocated funds for local repairs of the temple and installed fire-fighting and anti-theft facilities for Nanjixiang Temple. Starting from 20 1 1, the cultural relics department also allocated more than 3 million yuan to comprehensively protect and repair the incense temple in Antarctica. The renovation plan should not only restore all the buildings in the temple, but also try to restore the murals on the mountain walls to further improve the surrounding environment of the temple. From this point of view, the vicissitudes of the Antarctic incense temple may regain its vitality and vitality in the near future.
