Ailaoshan Forest Tourist Area番番禺MichaelThe Ailaoshan Tea Horse Ancient Road Scenic Area in Xinping County, Yuxi City, Yunnan Province is located in the hinterland of Ailao Mountain, mainly concentrated in the virgin forests along the Shilihe area of Jiasa Town. This ancient road is a section of the ancient southern Weinan Avenue, which is an important section of the ancient southern Weinan "tea salt road" and the southern Silk Road. The famous Yunnan tribute "Pu'er tea" is transported out of the horse and horse by this merchant; Advanced culture, production technology and commodities in the Mainland are also passed from one ancient ramp to another. The relics of Qianjiazhai, Longmen Inn and iron-making furnaces seem to be able to clearly see the long gone years and feel the prosperity of the ancient ramp of the horse gang. The ancient tea-horse road in Xinping has concentrated the social development history of Yunnan for nearly two thousand years, and has deduced countless journey stories of toast, officials and dignitaries, literati, merchants, bandits, war, natural disasters and man-made disasters, which truly record the vicissitudes of mourning people. Today, the flowing water of the ten miles river is still running, and the crisp and long ringing ring has long passed, leaving people with endless thoughts and memories.
Jingdong Confucian TempleMM31***94Jingdong Confucian Temple is located in the county town. It is also called the Academy and Confucius Temple. It was first built in Tangyao and rebuilt in the west of Nancangjing in the seventh year of Zhengtong in the Ming Dynasty (1442). It was moved to Tangyao in the fifteenth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1587) and burned down in the late Ming Dynasty. In the seventeenth year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1660), the residence of Xu Shuhong, the magistrate of Jingdong County, was used as a temple school. In the twenty-first year of Kangxi (1682), it was moved to the foot of Yuping Mountain. In the thirty-ninth year (1700), it was moved to Tangyao again. In the seventeenth year of Qianlong (1752), it was moved to the foot of Yuping Mountain again. In the eleventh year of Jiaqing (1806), the twenty-first year of Daoguang (1841), and the first year of Tongzhi (1862), it was destroyed by war. In the thirteenth year of Tongzhi (1874), it was rebuilt with donations. The construction of the Confucian Temple in Jingdong has a history of more than 600 years since its initial construction. The existing Jingdong Confucian Temple was established in 1682. It is located at the foot of Yuping Mountain to the west of the county seat. It has a history of 323 years and is one of the relatively intact ancient buildings in southwest Yunnan.
Because Jingdong was the most eventful place in history, there were constant wars and chaos. It was repaired and destroyed several times. It was severely damaged during the Cultural Revolution, causing the Confucian Temple to be dilapidated and unrecognizable, with leaking houses and tilted walls. It was not until after 1978 that the people urgently demanded the restoration of the Confucian Temple, which received the attention of the Party and the government. In October 1983, funds were allocated for construction, and it was basically completed by the end of 1986. In 1994, the Dacheng Hall, the right wing room, and the stone railings of the Tianzi Terrace of the Confucian Temple were fully restored. In 1995, the statue of Confucius was installed. In April 2004, the Lingxing Gate was rebuilt again, the central axis road was rebuilt, and the entire Confucian Temple building was repainted. Therefore, the Jingdong Confucian Temple is full of light and shines in front of tourists with a new and beautiful appearance, just like a finely carved work of art for people to appreciate. The admiration of the great spirit and personality charm of the people of all ethnic groups in Jingdong in the past dynasties has preserved the Jingdong Confucian Temple, making it a relatively intact Confucian Temple in Yunnan except for the Jianshui Confucian Temple. In 1986, it was announced as a county-level key cultural relic protection unit by the county people's government; in 1987, it was announced as a key cultural relic protection unit in Yunnan Province by the provincial people's government; in 2013, it was announced as a national key cultural relic protection unit by the State Council; in 2004, it was rated as an AA-level tourist attraction by the Provincial Tourism Bureau.
The Confucian Temple is a microcosm of Jingdong's history and culture. It is mainly vertically built, with a stepped courtyard symmetrical on the central axis, with a total area of 5,292 square meters. It consists of a screen wall, a pool, a Sishui archway, a Kuixing Pavilion, a hexagonal pavilion, a bell and drum tower, a Lingxing Gate, a Dacheng Gate, a Dacheng Hall and side rooms on both sides, with sculptures of Confucius and the 12 philosophers displayed inside. There is a river in front and a jade screen behind. It is surrounded by mountains and water, with towering ancient trees, attics and corner pavilions, and the sound of bells. It is simple and majestic, and very spectacular.
Wuliang Mountain Nature Reserve风风随心动1976The Wuliang Mountains in Nanzhang County, Dali, become "untimely" every winter. In early December, the winter cherry blossoms in Wuliangshan Cherry Blossom Valley are open among the tea mountains. The cherry blossoms are beautiful, and the large cherry forest plus the morning mist constitute a charming wonderland. The Wuliangshan Sakura Valley is a tea garden where several cherry blossoms have been accidentally grown. When the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, the tea garden owner finds it beautiful and breeds a lot of cherry seedlings. A few years later, these cherry trees not only bring shade to the summer tea tree, but also bring a beautiful view of winter to the visitors.
