Zhangzhou, located in the southeast, is rich in natural scenery and one of the most distinctive places of Lingnan culture. The local folk customs are simple and gentle, the natural beauty is exciting, and there are many desirable foods. This is a good place for sightseeing. This is a guidebook about the Round Mountain and Shan Zhi.

There are two famous mountains in Zhangzhou: Yuanshan and Shan Zhi. Yuanshan is located five kilometers southwest of Zhangzhou. Shan Zhi is located in the northwest corner of Zhangzhou City. It is said that Ganoderma lucidum was found on the mountain, so it was named "Zizhi Mountain".

Coincidentally, there are also Yuanshan Mountain and Shan Zhi Mountain in Taiwan Province. Yuanshan is located at the northern end of Taipei. Shan Zhi is located in Shilin District, Taipei City. When people in Zhangzhou developed the Stone Forest, they thought it was very similar to their hometown of Shan Zhi, so they called it "Shan Zhi Rock" and built "Huiji Palace" on the rock of Shan Zhi to worship the patron saint of Zhangzhou "Zhang Kai Shengwang".

Today's busy and densely populated Taipei was a barren land with many thorns and few people three hundred years ago. During the Kangxi period of Qing Dynasty, Zhangzhou people entered Taipei for reclamation along Danshui River and its tributaries, Keelung River and Xindian River. Banqiao Plain in Ye Ping, south of Shangxindian River, Tahiti area in the upper reaches of Dahan River, and at the foot of Datun Mountain in the north of Keelung River, there are now many towns where Zhangzhou people live together, leaving many place names from Zhangzhou, such as Yuanshan and Shan Zhi. They are the monument and witness of the ancestors in Zhangzhou who developed Taipei.

The word "Zhangzhou House" frequently appears in genealogy and historical materials in Taiwan Province. The descendants of Zhang Ji, Zhangzhou Fucheng, dream of it. In recent years, Taiwan Province compatriots in Zhangzhou have come here to seek their roots and worship their ancestors. Or they wander among historical sites and appreciate the splendid civilization of the ancient city; Or stroll through the old streets and alleys and enjoy the simple folk customs of your hometown; Or stop at a stall and taste the food of your ancestral home.

Zhangzhou Fucheng has a long history. In the second year of Tang Zhenyuan (786), Chen Mo, the governor of Zhangzhou (the great grandson of Chen Yuanguang), saw the beautiful scenery, vast plains, round mountains and mountains, facing north and south, and the Jiulong River in the middle slowly flowed eastward with excellent mountains and rivers, so he began to set up state governance here. In the Tang Dynasty, Zhangzhou City, centered on Zhongshan Park, built square castles and dug east and west cities, which was called "dividing the city". From the Tang Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, Zhangzhou's state, government, road and other departments were located in this Zhongshan Park. After more than 12 years, the location and pattern of the ancient city pool in Zhangzhou are still indistinguishable. In Zhongshan Park, there are still remnants of a wall more than two feet wide and a stone pavilion outside the official residence. The rectangular area formed by Nanchang Road, Penghu Road, Jiulong Jiangbei Dike and Zhongfa Road is the site of Zhangzhou Ancient City in Tang Dynasty.

in the song dynasty, an annular city wall was built outside the purple city in the Tang dynasty, which was called the "outer city", forming a pattern of "the inner side of the outer circle is separated and overlapped". The Shicheng, built in Shaoxing in the fourth year of Song Guang (1134), is fifteen miles long and is still full of stains and spots. The east gate tower and the walls at the north and south ends of Xinhua West Road are more than 1 meters long, well preserved and valuable. Founded in the Tang Dynasty, the city was built repeatedly in the Song Dynasty, surrounded by purple cities and connected with the Jiulong River. In the past, the city was full of clear water, and ships loaded with goods came in from the east and west gates, which could go directly to the fish head temple (now Nanchang Road) in the city center. There are still East-West Bridge pavilions in the city. Dongqiao Pavilion was built in the 11th year of Tang Yuanhe (August 16th), and the completion of the bridge coincided with Zhou Kuangwu, a native of Zhangzhou, becoming a scholar. Therefore, it is also called "Jiqiao". Pavilion was built on the bridge in Song Dynasty, and rebuilt in past dynasties. The existing Sanjinqiao Pavilion is exquisitely carved and full of ancient style. In the Song Dynasty, there was a folk named Sa < P > strolling through the streets of Zhangzhou, but he saw overlapping historical sites, searching carefully and everywhere. At the northern end of Zhongshan Park, there is a Seven-Star Pool in memory of Zhu, a Southern Song Neo-Confucianist. In the first year of the Southern Song Dynasty (119), Zhu was appointed as a well-known person in Zhangzhou, where he built a mansion. He devoted himself to the study of The Great Learning, The Doctrine of the Mean, The Analects of Confucius and Mencius, and edited the Notes on Four Books with annotations, which was first published in Zhangzhou. During his tenure, he attached great importance to education, worked hard and made many changes. Scholars have always regarded Zhu as a milestone in the cultural history of Zhangzhou. In the museum of Zhongshan Park, the Tang Xian Tong Jing Lou is treasured. The handwriting on the classic building is clear, and the famous Confucian scholars in Ming Dynasty called it "the first classic building in the world". Go south along the south gate of Zhongshan Park to Xiuwen West Road. There is the Confucian Temple, which was built in the second year of Li Qing in the Northern Song Dynasty (142) and is the center of ancient culture and education in Zhangzhou. The rules of the doors, courtyards, halls and courtyards in the temple are vigorous and magnificent. The main building, Dacheng Hall, with golden roof and double eaves, is magnificent. The front porch has six Panlong relief stone pillars, which are simple and elegant. Wen Tianxiang, Qi Jiguang, Huang Daozhou and Zheng Chenggong, national heroes in the Song and Ming Dynasties, all came here to offer sacrifices. During the Jianyan period in the Southern Song Dynasty, Confucius' descendant Kong Ren led his son Kong Kequan to avoid soldiers and live in the temple, and his descendants were born in Zhangzhou. Until the fourth year of Zheng De in Ming Dynasty (159), it was still recorded in history.

in Zhangzhou ancient city, among the 4 places of interest listed as municipal cultural relics protection units, 13 places are ancestral homes or ancestral worship places of Zhang people in Taiwan Province. Among them are the ancestor of Chen, the "South Campus School" in Taiwan Province, Nanshan Temple, the Taizi Taichuan base, the ancestors of Shushan School, Doushan School and Yongshan School in Taiwan Province, the tomb of Xiao Shizhong, the champion of the Song Dynasty, Gong Baodi, Lin Wencha, the special ancestral hall for Lin Chaodong and his son, and the anti-Japanese hero Jane Dashimeng. The temple is dedicated to the statues of the masters Shaanxi and Li Lan. After reunification, Li Lan revisited his hometown and wrote "Jianghan Zhuo Yi" in calligraphy. This plaque still exists today.

The streets and alleys of the ancient city, with ancient archways across the streets, are spectacular, showing the splendor of Zhangzhou's flourishing literary style and talented people. On the roads of Hong Kong, the memorial archway of Lin Shangshu and assistant minister Jiang has gone through more than 3 years, as majestic as ever.

On Yuekou Street, Li Lan Archway and Adrian Xu Archway stand in tandem, like a general, overlooking the low pavilions in the old street, guarding the busy street vendors. Sipailou is more than ten meters high, with three floors, five floors and twelve columns.

The plaques on the Blue Arch and the Adrian Xu Arch, such as intrepid and simple, invincible, the mighty voice of Fujian and Vietnam, and the great achievements of Chu and Dian, were all inscribed by Kangxi himself. The embossed flowers, figures, dragons and phoenixes, lions and beasts carved on both sides of the plaque are exquisite in workmanship and of great appreciation value.

Go northwest along the ancient street, cross Shengli Road, and climb the mountain to control the mountain, which is the highest point in the urban area. In the past, there were famous temples in Shan Zhi, such as Kaiyuan Temple, Ji Fa Temple and Jingzhong Temple. Kaiyuan Temple, built in the Tang Dynasty, has the longest history, the most prosperous Buddhism, and the incense is crowned in Fujian and Taiwan. In the third year of Tongzhi in Qing Dynasty (1864), Li Shixian, a servant of Taiping Army, marched into Zhangzhou and confronted the Qing army. Kaiyuan Temple was destroyed by the war. Today, there are still broken monuments for people to visit.

There are three pavilions on the top of Zhishan Mountain. Town Pavilion soars into the sky, facing the horns of Weizhen Pavilion in the southeast of the city, just like a pair of Tianhua watches. Ganlu Pavilion was built in the 16th year of Jiajing in Ming Dynasty. It is said that dew fell from the sky. Li Yuanyang made a wish, and Sun Yu, the county magistrate, may have made a wish.
