The Confucius Temple was built in the fourth year of Yuanfeng in the Northern Song Dynasty (A.D. 10 10). Only 100 years later, the new county magistrate thought that the size of Confucius Temple was too small and the pattern was not standardized, and it was demolished and rebuilt in Shaoxing in the thirteenth year of the Southern Song Dynasty. The Yuan army invaded the south and attacked Anfu, and the Confucius Temple was destroyed by fire. In the Ming Dynasty, the emperor decided on the unified architectural format of the Confucius Temple in the world, and Yu Kui, a magistrate of a county, rebuilt it according to the unified format of the imperial court in the sixteenth year of Zhengde in the Ming Dynasty (A.D. 152 1). Despite several major renovations in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the main building still maintained the provisions of the Ming Dynasty.
The Confucius Temple covers an area of 10 mu, and the main buildings are arranged along a north-south axis. It takes advantage of the rich spatial changes of doors, bridges and courtyards that are promoted layer by layer to highlight the theme of respecting holes. Dacheng Gate and Dacheng Hall are the main buildings of Confucius Temple, covering an area of more than 3,000 square meters. The mountain rests on the eaves, the tile flies, and the wings are flying. Dacheng Hall is14m high and 25m wide. It is composed of platform beam frame structure, abutment arch columns, cross beams, eight folded nanmu columns supporting the roof truss, wood carvings, colorful paintings of beams, gold plaques with red columns, couplets of past dynasties, etc., which is solemn and magnificent. There are 54 octagonal red stone pillars in the cloister outside the temple, just like 54 mighty guards standing tall. Among them, the two pairs of red stone pillars in the center of Dacheng Gate and Dacheng Hall, with a diameter of 60 cm, are covered with hollowed-out reliefs, wrapped in clouds and rolling dragons, and are lifelike and lifelike, making the hall more solemn.
Times are prosperous and ancient buildings are full of vitality. In the mid-1990s, with the support of relevant departments, Anfu people at home and abroad donated money to repair the Confucius Temple. After more than five years' efforts, an Anfu Confucius Temple, which still maintains the style of the Ming Dynasty, has regained its former style, and the Anfu County Museum has been established by using newly renovated venues such as Fenxian Temple, Minghuan Temple and Liangyou Temple, systematically introducing the history and culture of Anfu ancient county for more than 2,000 years. Formerly known as "Dongshan Temple Tower", it is a representative building of Buddhism in Ji 'an. According to the Records of Anfu County, the predecessor of the pagoda was the stone pagoda built by Lu Su in the Three Kingdoms period, which was small in scale and collapsed after the Jin Dynasty. During the reign of Song Xuanhe (1120-1125), the brick tower was rebuilt at the original site and the Dongshan Temple was built at the same time, hence the name "Dongshan Temple Tower". In the 16th year of Zhengde in Ming Dynasty (152 1), it collapsed again, and in the 21st year of Jiajing in Ming Dynasty (1542), it was rebuilt on the collapsed three-story base.
Dongshan Pagoda is a "Buddha Pagoda" which is integrated with temples in the Song Dynasty. After the reconstruction in the Ming Dynasty, it has been combined with Confucianism and Taoism to become a style pagoda that hopes for prosperity and continuity. Therefore, the name of the pagoda was renamed "Dongshan Pagoda".
Dongshan Wenta is a pavilion-like wood-green brick structure. The tower is 45 meters high and the base of Mount Sumi is 34.4 meters in diameter, which gradually narrows from bottom to top. The overall outline is pyramid-shaped, just like a giant soaring into the sky, full of thick ink ... In the niche door of the tower, you can see in all directions and the county seat has a panoramic view. Tadong and Menggangling Forest Park echo each other from a distance, with tree-lined trees and Bai Yunfei crossing; Under the tower, a stream winds into the Green Water River, with small bridges and flowing water and fragrant rice flowers along the river. Tashi can peek at the majestic posture of the hall of Confucius Temple in Anfu, and the north of Tashi can overlook Dongyuan Pavilion and appreciate the charm of the ancient road view. Modern civilized traffic, bustling street scenes and rows of high-rise buildings complement each other.
Dongshan Wenta 1959 was announced as a key cultural relic protection unit in Jiangxi Province, and 1996 was listed in the Dictionary of Places of Interest in China.
"A garden is inserted into Zen, and the county town is pressed for a thousand years; Days can't be separated at the same table, and loneliness hinders the cloud. Hide the bell shadow at night and send the crane sound in the clear sky; Qiu Feng Tanguifa and Yi Shi have good titles. " This poem about Dongshan Pagoda left by Hu Ding, an Anfu poet in Yuan Dynasty, is a true portrayal of the majestic style of the ancient pagoda! It was built by Liu Wuzhen in the late Jin Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, Zhang Sheng abandoned his official position and didn't come here to determine the truth. He used drugs to treat people's diseases, and Peng Meicuo, a citizen of this city, built a pavilion to commemorate him because of gratitude. In the fifth year of Xianfeng in Qing Dynasty (1858), Taiping Army invaded Anfu City and set fire to the pavilion. The existing "Dongyuan Pavilion" was rebuilt on the ruins with donations from the whole city in the fifth year of Tongzhi (1866). The "Cave Garden Pavilion" has two floors, with a height of12m and a width of14m. Covering an area of nearly 200 square meters, it is made of brick and wood structure, with upturned cornices, resting on the top of the mountain, splashing water, fish kissing and baohulu topping. There are cloisters around every two floors. Climbing high and looking far, Wugong Mountain looms as a sea of clouds, overlooking the lake and river at the foot. Fishing sails and bamboo rafts line up and meander down the river. Surrounded by the beautiful scenery of the mountain city, the towering Dongshan Pagoda is particularly beautiful. No wonder Du Xuan, a famous writer who lived in Anfu for several years as a teenager, was unhappy. In his memoirs in his later years, he repeatedly mentioned the beauty of Anfu's mountains and rivers and his nostalgia for the East Garden Pavilion, and even had the idea of revisiting the East Garden Pavilion. Due to his poor health, he was unable to make the trip, which he regretted.
There is a well in front of Dongyuan Pavilion, which is called "Qingyuan". The water is pure and sweet. According to legend, the pillars of the pavilion were cast by Taoist priests and fished out of the water. This biography is not credible, but it can prove a little-known past of Ge.
On both sides of the exhibition hall is a Y-shaped ancient street with a suspension bridge at the end. It is said that at the end of that year, there were 1,000 kilograms of Tieniu Town Water, which has now become a dusty history buried in the sand. This bridge is also called Jixian Bridge. Legend has it that on the night when the bridge was built, gongs and drums kept beating all night. The next morning, people in the street came to the bridge and saw the word "Lv Dongbin" written on it. The place where Liu Shuying, an anti-Qing heroine who saved the country, adopted her mother to worship Buddha. Liu Shuying (later 1620- 1657), whose real name is Mu Ping, is from Sanshe Village, Anfu County, Jiangxi Province, and the wife of Wang Ai from Luling (now Ji 'an, Jiangxi Province). His father Liu Duo (1573— 1626) is knowledgeable, good at writing, resolute and honest. 1626, dissatisfied with Wei Zhongxian's eunuch's autocratic power, angrily wrote poems on the fan, denouncing: "Yang Yinjun died, and the haze was a state affair." For this reason, he was arrested and imprisoned and sentenced to death several times. After Emperor Chongzhen ruled the eunuch, he gave Liu Duo a servant, Shao Qing, to show his loyalty and bravery. Liu Shuying has been a tutor since childhood, studying classics and reading poetry books. However, he was born in the turbulent world in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties and experienced many twists and turns: he lost his father when he was young and his husband when he got married. During the Sino-Japanese War, Li Zicheng captured the strategist. According to Xu nai's biography of Xiaotian? The martyr said: Shu Ying cried and said: "I hate that I am not a human being, but I can't fight this battle alone to serve the country and evil!" " 1646, the Qing army invaded Liu Shuying's hometown of Ji 'an. At that time, there were many rebels in the south of the Yangtze River, and Liu Shuying was infected by this, so he spent all his money to recruit soldiers, hoping to do his best to defend his hometown. She wrote in the poem "My family advised me to go home before I finished my military service": "After many generations, my family was blessed by the Lord and I became a soldier. Destroy the precepts to solve the national disaster, and Jiuyuan talks about comforting the loyal soul. "
When He Tengjiao stationed in Changsha became more and more powerful, Liu Shuying prepared to go to He Tengjiao, hoping to fight the Qing Dynasty. Unexpectedly, on the way to Chu, I met Zhang Xianbi, the guard of Yongxin. Xianbi not only failed to resist Qing Dynasty, but also wanted to take Liu Shuying as his concubine. Loyal and noble Liu Shuying refused to accept this insult. Zhang will be detained while there are many people. In Hechuan Prison, Liu Shuying wrote an impassioned poem with indignation: "If you grind iron and dare to swallow a sword, your eyes will hang on the door. In order to give up this body, why not keep fragrant! " Zhang Xianbi tried his best to persuade the thief before he died, but he was severely reprimanded by Liu Shuying. She wrote a four-line poem on the wall of her cell to show her contempt: "Don't cry at the west wind, but you know there is a difference between the past and the present. Come to the DPRK and break your head quickly, and don't listen to the crow. "
Zhang Jian was righteously released and dismissed. Suffering from this misfortune, Liu Shuying dispersed all his troops and returned to the field. He built a small temple outside the south gate of the county seat, and his foster mother worshipped Buddha. Then, he cut off his green hair, dipped it in thick ink, and named it "Lian Fang Temple" to show his heart. . Located between the county seat and Anfu Railway Station, it is connected with Wugongshan Avenue, the main road of the county seat, with Anfu Railway Station in the southwest and Lvshui River in the north. It belongs to the hilly area with subtropical monsoon humid climate, with mild climate, abundant rainfall, abundant sunshine and fertile soil, which is suitable for the growth of various plants. Vegetation is mainly natural forests such as Pinus massoniana and mixed coniferous and broad-leaved forests, such as cypress, osmanthus fragrans, Liquidambar formosana and Schima superba. The planned area of Forest Park is 800 mu, including 400 mu in Phase I and 400 mu in Phase II. The construction goal of this project is to integrate the good forest ecological environment on the existing basis, make full use of forest leisure tourism resources, and gradually improve the economic, ecological and social benefits with the purpose of scientific protection, reasonable layout, moderate development and construction, and artificial provision of leisure tourism.
