Xun County is the only county-level national historical and cultural city in Henan Province. Because of this, I regard Xunxian as a very important stop in this trip to northern Henan. It was close to night when I arrived in Xunxian, and I drove past the north wall, brightly lit and spectacular. At that time, I took a look at the night view of the ancient city of Xun County and was very excited. Unfortunately, as a foreigner, it's really humiliating. I can't get around the huanghe road being repaired, and I'm exhausted from finding a place to live. I had to spend half a day measuring the ancient city on foot the next day. It is said that the ancient city of Xunxian is really big. After a lap, my ranking in the WeChat movement soared directly to the forefront. Xunxian ancient city is an open ancient city, completely free. Centered on the Sandwich Pavilion, it is divided into four doors: East, South, West and North. I came down from Qiufushan, so I took the south gate. There is a moat in front of Cheng Nan, and Nanguan Stone Bridge was built in Ming and Qing Dynasties. The bridge deck is covered with traces of history, and it is not very flat. The lion on the carved fence still retains its charm. The south gate is tall and majestic, and the attic with double eaves above is a newly-built antique building. On the east side of Nanchengmen, there is a special ancient city wall experience hall, which is divided into Ming and Qing dynasties. The Ming city wall is mainly composed of soil accumulation and text introduction, while the Qingcheng wall is a site display. After entering South Street, antique buildings are everywhere on both sides. In order to maintain this unity, great efforts must be made. The clothes seller is directly called the "Armed Forces Department", which is really armed to the teeth. The presence of selling fried fish is really strong, with five small signs. When you come to Xunxian to eat special food, you can't help eating stone buns. Xunxian people directly call it "Mozi", and Zidai's voice sounds very nice. It looks like our pie. It tastes crispy outside and tender inside, and the meat and eggs are full. This building located in the center of the ancient city of Xun County is Wenzhi Pavilion, which is the center of the whole ancient city of Xun County and one of the symbols of Xun County. In the Ming Dynasty, it was called the Central Pavilion and the Bell Tower. After the Qing Dynasty was rebuilt, it was renamed "Wenzhige". Andong Street, half of which is the history of Xun County, is the East Street coming out of the Sandwich Pavilion. The most typical buildings on East Street are these "revolutionary" buildings, which always remind people of that prosperous era. In addition, there is a "Song Family Courtyard" in East Street, which is a quadrangle left over from the Qing Dynasty, but it is being renovated. The most interesting thing to say about the ancient city of Xun County is West Street, which has always been the political, economic and cultural center of Xun County in ancient times. On the westernmost side is a river, which is not only a national key cultural relic protection unit, but also a world cultural heritage. This river is the Xunxian section of the Weihe River (Yongji Canal). In ancient times, it was an important wharf of Weihe River, with considerable throughput, which created the prosperity of commerce in Xunxian County. There is also a stone bridge above, called Yunxi Bridge, which is also famous in the local area. The river is a moat and the bridge is a moat. Crossing the river and crossing the bridge is the west wall, which is the best preserved section of the ancient wall of Xunxian County. Although the gates and towers are newly built, the foundation of the city wall is old. After the renovation, you can still climb the city wall and overlook the West Street. Entering West Street from the West Gate, the first isolated building you saw was called "Mantra Cloud Building", which is an ancient theater. In front of the building, there are local citizens who make a living by "cycling", and they went just in time to open their business. Opposite Zhiyun Building is a Guandi Temple, which is undergoing major repair and temporarily closed. The neighbor of Zhiyun Building is Xunxian Cinema, which is also a "revolutionary style". It will be very emotional to watch movies like tunnel warfare and mine warfare in it. Further east, you can see the hereditary Imperial Academy. In fact, the hereditary Hanlin Academy was originally located in Xunxian South Street, and it was not until the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty that it moved to its present position in West Street. The hereditary Hanlin House is the residence of the descendants of Duanmu Zigong, a historical celebrity in Xunxian County. Zi Gong is a very famous disciple of Confucius. He is good at business and is known as the originator of Confucian businessmen. On the eve of liberation, Xunxian set up a lithographic bureau in the hereditary Hanlin Academy to undertake printing business. Later, I worked here as a county hospital, a county collective industrial association and a family member's hospital of a collective industrial association. West Street is now full of shops, some selling food, some sex shops, and some throwing hydrangeas to attract relatives. Those who don't have a girlfriend might as well try their luck. There are many small forks in the West Street, such as Jishi Street, which should be equivalent to the ancient farmers' market. The most important thing is Xianqian Street, which is located in the middle of West Street and faces north. It says "Old Governance of Liyang". There are ancient county offices and schools hidden inside. On the way to Xunxian county government, there are many former institutions and houses. After renovation in recent years, they are all connected by a side door. From the mathematician's former residence, I went to the Wang family compound and the military service bureau, and finally I couldn't tell which one was. There are some folk customs about marriage and birthday worship in ancient times. The wedding suit has many links and is still in use. If you calm down and look at them carefully, you can really learn a lot. Unfortunately, time is limited, so I will take a quick look and take a photo as a souvenir. Go north to the end of Xianqian Street, which is Xunxian government, old place and new building. ""Public students are bright, students are dark "is an old official motto, which will not be out of date now or in the future! Where the magistrate handled the case, when two rows of courtiers shouted "mighty", the magistrate said, "Who is kneeling? "His legs soon have no strength? In ancient times, in order to avoid corruption and nepotism, officials were sent from different places, so there were often residential areas behind the county government. There are several "round granaries" in the county government, which were not left by ancient officials, but the first batch of state-built granaries built in Xun County in the early days of the founding of New China. Many houses in the official's son of the county have been opened as exhibition halls, including temple fairs in Xun county, costumes of ancient officials, and weapons criminal law. Interestingly, many people eat this group of sculptures at the entrance of the county yamen, and some people earn literacy! Not far from the east of the county government is the Confucian Temple. This is the ancient cultural center of Xun County. No matter whether it is the original or the later buildings, there is no shortage, such as Lingxingmen, Chi Pan, Crossing Aoqiao and Jimen. Of course, the last building that Confucius Temple arrived at was Dacheng Hall, where Confucius, the most sacred teacher, was enshrined. Have you noticed that the halberd gate and Dacheng Hall in the Confucian Temple are all made of green glazed tiles, and Dacheng Hall is a building leaning on the top of the mountain. The county government that has just passed is a hard roof with blue bricks and gray tiles, but it is shorter than the Confucian Temple in building regulations. Go east from the Confucian Temple, and you can walk to North Street, where there are almost all shops. When I walked to the north gate, I suddenly remembered the first night. I'm a little embarrassed to drive around the gate and can't find a place to park and stay. Walking to the north gate is the whole ancient city of Xunxian. It's a pity that the car and luggage are in the south, so we have to go from north to south again, pass through the sandwich pavilion in the middle, and pass through the center of this ancient city, and feel an indescribable familiarity. Maybe this feeling has been called! Xunxian county is muddy, and when I was a child, I wrestled with the blind and had a good time.
