1938 Tianxin Pavilion was in ruins when the fire broke out in Changsha. After the founding of New China, the people's government changed Tianxin Pavilion into Tianxin Park. 1983, the famous pavilion was rebuilt on the Ming city wall, with a height of 17.5 meters, an altitude of more than 60 meters, 30 meters higher than the urban area, commanding and overlooking Wanjia. The main pavilion has three floors, and there are two sub-pavilions on each wing. There is a long corridor in the middle, which is in an arc layout, and the left and right reflective belts are like a bird's zhang yi. Yellow tile cornices, high wing angles, 32 pairs of cabinet angles hanging iron horses and copper bells, the wind sounds, leisurely and clear. To the south of the main pavilion is Tianxin Pavilion, and to the north is Chutianbang. On the north side of the pavilion, the former site of Wenchang Pavilion was reserved as a wide pavilion. In the east of Guangting, there are gables and waist doors. Also embedded: "Xiongzhen", "spectacular", "majestic" and "overlooking". Your Ming city walls, cribs and gun holes have all been repaired, making the ancient city more rugged and brand-new, with magnificent buildings. As Li Shaojuan, a poet in Qing Dynasty, said, "The south of the city is tall, straight and thin. Insert into the top of Tianmen and watch the stars fall. As soon as I boarded today, my vision was really high. Looking for a roll, smoke flies in the desert. Xiang Shui is ringing, and the foot screen is Ping Jian. Far pu sends sails, and green hills are covered with green curtains. The word "wild goose" is written in the sky, and fishermen berth along the river. Tower peak refers to the house, and every household leans against the building. Looking up, the white clouds are low and the wind is ringing. Winning today, Lushan. " Tianxin Park also has rockeries, pavilions and reading rooms. The entrance is wide, with trees on both sides, colorful gardens, birds singing and insects singing. It is a good place for people to practice boxing and sword dancing, read piano and go sightseeing. June 5438+October 2000 10, Tianxin Pavilion was renovated, and an open small green garden was opened outside the pavilion. Unfortunately, the unique long slope of the original green slate in Shangge Pavilion was demolished.
Changsha Phantom Image Museum burned the ancient city wall, the ancient gun, the moon city, the Taiping Army's soul, the fierce pavilion, the fierce gate, the Yingshanlou celebrity stone carving museum, the Tianxin tea room, the fumigation pavilion, and the Yangxian Pavilion. According to the Han Guan Yi written by Ying Shao in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Changsha City was founded in the Warring States Period. In 202 BC (the fifth year of Emperor Gaozu), Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang named Wu Rui as the king of Changsha and established Changsha. In the Northern Wei Dynasty, Li Daoyuan wrote in the water classics "Xiang Shui": "In the fifth year of Emperor Gaozu, he was named King of Changsha to build a city with Rui." It can be seen that the large earth wall in Changsha existed as early as 2200 years ago.
From 1923, Hunan Governor Tan ordered the demolition of the ancient city wall of Changsha and the construction of the ring road. A group of people headed by Cao Dianqiu, the prime minister of the municipal government, proposed to keep this section of the city wall as a cultural relic, which was recognized. Therefore, after the demolition of the ancient city wall of Changsha, there is only a section of your present heavenly heart, which is fixed as the only physical relic of the ancient city of Changsha for future generations to mourn, with a length of 25 1 m and a height of 13. Moon City, also known as urn or sub-city, is a small town built outside the city gate to shield the city gate. The purpose of * * * is to strengthen the city's defense. According to the "Wu Jing Collection: Guarding the City" cloud: "The urn outside the city is round or square, depending on the terrain. The height is thick and thin in the same city, only one door is opened, and it is whatever you want. "
In the fifth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1372), when Qiu Guang was ordered by the garrison commander of Changsha Prefecture to rebuild the wall of Tucheng with masonry, he did not build the Moon City outside Jiumen. According to Hunan Tongzhi in Qing Dynasty, "In the 11th year of Chongzhen (1638), Changsha magistrate was promoted to build the Moon City", and in the 25th year of Jiaqing (1820), when Changsha and Hua Shan counties requested funds to repair the city wall, Tianxin Pavilion was expanded to three floors, and your city wall was built into an inner and outer city. Tongzhi for three years (1864), the governor rebuilt your Moon City and the city wall for the need of expanding Tianxin Pavilion.
Regarding the specific use of the Moon City, Zou said in Changsha Guide 1933: "There are two huge caves beside the pavilion, one on the left and the other on the right. There used to be a place to guard the city and hide soldiers. " Tianxin Pavilion, located in Xia Yue, covers an area of about 500 square meters and can hide hundreds of soldiers. It has many functions:
1. When fighting, soldiers can climb the city head in turn, and the next soldier can go down to Moon City to get a timely rest, which is safer, protects the troops and facilitates the rapid change of teams in the battle.
There are eight blastholes on the wall of Yuecheng. The gun is hidden in the hole, which can avoid the bombardment of enemy guns and make soldiers safer.
3. Under normal circumstances, Yuecheng Town protects the city gate outside the city gate, and the defensive side has an additional fortification, which makes it more difficult for the enemy to attack the city. And just like you don't have a city gate, no matter how the enemy attacks, of course, you can't get in. For an enemy who doesn't know that you don't have a gate, it's like getting lost in a maze and always attacking. This way, guarding the city is easy to control the enemy and increase casualties. When the Taiping Army attacked Changsha on 1852, it saw Tianxin Pavilion as the tallest tower in Changsha, mistakenly thinking that there must be a gate below, so it took Tianxin Pavilion as one of its main targets, wasting a lot of time and troops. Perhaps this is the confusing effect of Tianxin Moon City. Chonglie Gate, built at 1946, was built for the soldiers killed in the three major battles in Changsha during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period. It was built with donations from Chiang Kai-shek, Chen Cheng and Zhang Zhizhong. It is a memorial archway building made of general anesthesia stone, with a width of 8.5 meters and a height of 5.9 meters. A couplet in the middle of Chonglie Gate reads "Swallow hujie, Bravely Defend the Mountains and Rivers". "Jie" is an ancient national name. It is called "hujie" because of its belief in Hu Tian religion. It belongs to the Huns, and here refers to the Japanese invaders.
The next one is written in seal script, "Forgetting to die in times of trouble, you want more than life". The word "forget" here is pronounced "king", which means forget. The top and bottom are all from China classics, and the first half is from the Book of Changes: "Say ancestors, the people forget their labor, and the people forget their death." The second part is from Mencius Gao Zi: "I want to live, I want to surpass the living, so I don't want to get it." The meaning of the first part is: to risk one's life and forget one's death is to rush into disasters and risk one's life for the country; The bottom line means: the ideal is better than living, which means that the ideal is supreme and I would rather die than surrender. These two couplets highly praised the soldiers who fought bravely and dedicated themselves to safeguarding national integrity in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. Chonglie Gate was destroyed during the Cultural Revolution. Now Chongliemen was restored and rebuilt on the original site with reference to old photos in 2006. Yingshanlou is a multi-functional tourist reception center integrating tea tasting, reception, card art and catering in Changsha Tianxin Pavilion Scenic Area. Located in the northeast corner of Tianxinge ancient city wall, overlooking Xiangjiang River and Yuelu Yingshanhong, hence the name "Yingshanlou". Its architectural style and interior decoration have typical classical characteristics of Ming and Qing Dynasties. Elegant environment, complete functions, excellent service, business area of more than 300 square meters, large venues that can accommodate 100 people, and 12 elegant rooms.

At the same time, it also received excellent visits and inspection activities from important national leaders such as Comrade Li, Her Royal Highness Princess Sirindhorn of Thailand, Mayor of Kagoshima City of Japan, Miss World Tourism and so on. Successfully held the "First Star City Tourism Image Ambassador Selection Competition in Changsha, China"; Received more than 20 social organizations and units to hold networking activities here; More than 80 meetings of all sizes. As the main attraction of your Excellency Tianxin, Yingshanlou is deeply concerned by government departments, and its cultural connotation will be further improved and excavated. She will welcome Chinese and foreign guests with a brand-new attitude. The great men of the past praised Changsha water; Now, the sages can meet at Yingshanlou! "Smoked" is a kind of vanilla, and "smoked wind" is a fragrant wind. Because the pavilion was built at the beginning of midsummer and surrounded by pleasant fragrance, it was named. 1932 He (1), the first mayor of Changsha, took office and decided to change the open space in the north of Tianxin Pavilion into a children's health park. The park is surrounded by a wooden fence and trees are planted along the fence. There are four small gardens, three flower stands and seven cement chairs in the park. There are swings, slides, cradles, beautiful boards, rings and other toys. There is a classical wooden pavilion on the northwest Gaogang, which is called the wind-seeking pavilion. Xunfeng, taken from Shun Di's Nanfeng Song, "Xunxi of the South Wind, can solve the worries of our people; When the south wind blows, it can enrich the wealth of our people. At that time, there were many national disasters and people's livelihood was difficult. People expect a beautiful social environment for children to grow up healthily and become the pillars of the country. This may be the earnest expectation of park namers. In the pavilion, Mr. He inscribed Xunji (II) and a pair of couplets, which read: "He Yun lad is ignorant, but he looks bustling, naive and lively; You must know that life is awesome. When you succeed in fame, don't forget to visit the park. "This pavilion was destroyed by the' Wenxi' fire, and' Ji' was gone.
1987, rebuild the pavilion in the original site of the park, all of which are granite structures. Carved column couplet: "low hesitation to solve a day;" Singing "Fu Mintian" can be said that the old name is endowed with new ideas, and the ancient rhyme is flowing today. On the east side of the pavilion, a pile of red stone walls stood by the pool, engraved with the word "Lun Jian", which means the water in the pool is like a mirror. The branches of Yingchun are hung on the stone wall, and the pavilion is reflected in the pool. The pavilion often smells Beijing dialect and laughs frequently. The pavilion is surrounded by green grass, magnolia and cedar towering, and flowers are planted in four seasons, which are full of fragrance and interest. Chonglie Pagoda, also known as White Pagoda, was built in 1946, which is an anti-Japanese memorial building. The tower is 6-6 meters high, with a general anesthesia stone structure and a hexagonal tower foundation. The tower consists of disks and columns, and a ball is supported at the upper end of the column, which symbolizes the earth. The spherical surface is engraved with a map of China. A stone lion stands high above the ball, overlooking it, symbolizing the sacred national integrity of China territory.
