Beautiful Shang and Zhou bronzes have been unearthed many times in Weishan area. 1938, in Yueshanpu, a farmer's ginger dug up a square statue of four sheep cast in bronze in Shang Dynasty, with a height of 58.3 cm and a diameter of 52.4 cm. The embossed dragon on the four shoulders and the four sheep on the abdomen are peerless treasures in the bronze wares of Shang and Zhou Dynasties in China. It's in the museum of Chinese history now. At the same time, bronze wares with animal faces (built-in 224 bronze axes in Shang Dynasty), Fang Ding with animal faces, Ding with animal faces, bronze bells and cymbals, weighing 22 1.5 kg, were all fine bronzes in Shang and Zhou Dynasties. People can't help asking: Why are so many high-grade Shang and Zhou bronzes concentrated in David's area? Is it really Shun and his son Lu who developed here? Or a sacrificial place for a warlord in Shang and Zhou tribes? Or some kind of cultural center? Maybe ... this mystery needs to be further solved by archaeologists.
Weishan has dense forests and dangerous terrain, and peasant uprisings have broken out many times. 1535 (in the 14th year of Ming Jiajing), the heroic peasant Mei gathered in Weishan to rebel. Thousands of respondents repeatedly repelled the encirclement and suppression of government forces, and thus attacked Xiangxiang and Hengyang. 19 14, Zhang Sanyuan, a tenant of Miyin Temple, organized a concentric meeting to resist the evil monks' urging for rent. 19 18 years, led more than a thousand troops to enter Miyin Temple, organized the uprising team into five battalions with 10 team, and took Weishan as the stronghold to counter the regimental defense forces in Ningxiang, Yiyang and Anhua. During the Great Revolution and the War of Liberation, the revolutionary armed forces of workers and peasants launched many uprisings in Yunshan to attack the enemy.
After liberation, the government built large reservoirs in Weishan-Huangcai Reservoir, forest farm and factory. The mysterious Weishan will further develop into a cultural tourism, cash crops and forestry production base. Location: 80 kilometers west of Ningxiang County, Hunan Province.
Weishan is full of humanistic spirit and cultural heritage. Under the Pilu Peak in the northwest of the basin, there is a thousand-year-old temple-Miyin Temple, which is one of the five schools of Zen in China. It was built by Pei Xiu, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, for the spiritual Zen master. The temple covers an area of 90O0 square meters, with internal and external scenic spots 10, including waterfalls, ginkgo-containing pools, beauty salons, Laimujing, Huixin Bridge, pots for thousands of people, beds for ten people, oilstone, mirror stone and Guling Tower. Among them, ginkgo contains sandalwood in the northeast corner behind the temple, and a sandalwood is parasitic among ancient ginkgo trees. Unfortunately, Sandalwood has died in recent years. Beauty, a wooden house hundreds of meters long, introduced the clear spring on the mountain behind the temple into the temple. Peixiu, a Buddhist, lived in Peigong Temple in Weishan in his later years, so he was buried in the sun opposite Miyin Temple. The mausoleum sits in the northwest facing southeast, facing Huangcai Town, surrounded by mountains like armchairs on both sides, with extraordinary feng shui. Not far below, there is a body temple of the spiritual Zen master-Dong Qing Temple. Further south, in the late Tang Dynasty, Miracle, a monk, hid and built the site-Miracle Temple. Further south, to Guanshan, there is the tomb of Zhang Jun, the prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty who resisted gold and his eldest son, one of the three sages in Southeast China. To the southwest, to the Hutongkou, it is the former residence of the founder of Ningxiang, the champion of the Southern Song Dynasty and the minister of rites, and there is Yi Champion Tomb nearby. 19 17 Mao Zedong and Xiao Zisheng visited Weishan and talked with the study room of Miyin Temple.
