Its creation has a long history, including "Qin Wei is a territory" and "Han is also a palace". It was rebuilt in the 13th year of Kaiyuan in Tang Dynasty (725), and expanded again in the 2nd year of Xiangfu in Song Dynasty (1009).

Dongyue Temple. Also known as Dongyue Palace, Dongyue Temple, Taishan Temple and Tianqi Temple, it is an important Dojo of Taoism. Dongyue Temple originated from the worship of Mount Tai. Later, after continuous spread, it developed into a belief that affected the whole country. After the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Dongyue Temple was built in almost all areas with Taishan belief, so there is a saying in history that "Dongyue Temple is all over the world" (Ming Xiaozong's Rebuilding Dongyue Temple Monument). With the strengthening of the protection of intangible culture and the attention paid to the declaration of intangible culture in Tai 'an, the study of folk culture in Tai 'an has become an inseparable part of Taishan culture in a broad sense, which is of great significance to the study of Dongyue Temple and Dongyue Temple Association in Taishan.

Taishan Dongyue Temple (Dai Temple) was founded in Han Dynasty, and it is the ancestral home of Taishan belief. It is precisely because of the worship of Mount Tai that palaces or shrines of Mount Tai gods have been built all over the country. History can be traced back to the Sui and Tang Dynasties, especially after the successful sealing of Mount Tai by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, the first Taishan God was named "King of Heaven and Qi", which played an important role in promoting the construction of Dongyue Temple in China. Many inscriptions record that Dongyue Temple was built in the prosperous Tang Dynasty and was built in counties all over the country. For example, Yuan's Notes on Dongyue Palace in Changxing County said: "It has been salty since Fengchan County in the Tang Dynasty."

The worship of Mount Tai flourished in the Zhao and Song Dynasties. After Song Zhenzong sealed Mount Tai and added Zen Emperor, the belief in Mount Tai gradually expanded, and Dongyue Temple was built in various places. After three years of auspicious symbols in Dazhong (10 1 1), Song Zhenzong said, "When crossing the land and crossing the east, the golden people prepare for steaming, so it is rare to bow and pray. Now, they are willing to build a shrine to worship, which prompted the promulgation of the decree. Lu Zhou, a poet in the Song Dynasty, wrote in an inscription for Dongyue Temple in Haiyan: "Emperor Zhang Sheng sealed the East, applied for the title of Emperor Yan to show his great virtue, promised to answer, lived in harmony with the weather after retirement, and kept this book, which is especially respected today, not put forward by all temples." Emperor Zhao Shi never replaced Mount Tai, which promoted the progress and popularization of Dongyue Temple worship in the north and south, and really developed into a national temple. Therefore, Dongyue Temple was a peak period of development in the Song Dynasty.

When Yuan and Mongolia entered the customs, they inherited the tradition of worshipping this temple in Song Dynasty, and because of the vast territory of Yuan Dynasty, Dongyue Temple was more widely distributed. "Rebuilding the Inscription of Dongyue Temple" (Puxian County, Shanxi Province) said: "Today, the temples of Daizong are all over the world, and there is no country or county. Although there are hundreds of schools, there are ten rooms to worship."

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the ritual system changed, and Dongyue Temple was formally incorporated into "Rites" ("Rites and Sacrifices in the Ming Dynasty"), and formed a complete set of official ritual system with Sheji Altar, Fengyun Thunderstorm Mountain Altar, Chenghuang Temple, Confucian Temple, Wang Guan Temple, Huo Miao Temple and Mawang Temple, which was widely implemented in various counties. This system continued after the Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains. As a result, almost all counties have formed the pattern of Dongyue Temple. Therefore, some researchers believe that the Ming and Qing Dynasties is another peak in the development history of Dongyue Temple, and the total number of temples around the country has far exceeded that of the Song and Yuan Dynasties.

Scholar Wang Keyu believes that Dongyue Temple has three regional characteristics. I. Geographical spread of Dongyue Temple Dongyue Temple originated in today's Shandong. Yutai (now Shandong) Taishan Fujun Temple recorded in Yuanhe County Records of the Tang Dynasty is the first Dongyue Temple recorded in official local chronicles. Since then, temple worship has gradually spread to northern counties, Henan, Hebei, Hedong and other places-Dongyue Temple was built earlier in Shandong, Henan, Shanxi and Hebei in the Tang Dynasty. This area is also a traditional area of Taishan belief. As early as the Han Dynasty, the belief that Mount Tai was a god of death prevailed here.

Secondly, Dongyue Temple in the south of China was built almost at the same time as that in the north, and some temples in the south also began to build such temples, such as Fujun Temple on Mount Tai in Shukou, which appeared at the latest in the late Tang Dynasty. In addition, some Dongyue temples in Jiangnan and central Fujian were also built in the Tang and Five Dynasties. However, the widespread prosperity of Dongyue Temple in the south began in the Song Dynasty. In particular, the Southern Crossing in the Song Dynasty promoted the worship of Dongyue in the south of the Yangtze River, making the south of the Yangtze River an important place of Taishan belief.

Third, the border areas of China. After the Song and Yuan Dynasties, with the development of frontier areas by successive dynasties, the worship of Dongyue Temple began to spread to all parts of the frontier. Dongyue Temple was first built in South Mongolia in Yuan Dynasty. After the establishment of People's Republic of China (PRC) in Ming Dynasty, Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangxi, Ningxia and other places were successively included in its territory, including Dongyue Temple, the official sacrificial system implemented in these areas. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Nan Ming Zheng successfully recovered Taiwan Province Province, built Dongyue Temple in Tainan, and spread temple worship to Taiwan Province Province. When the Qing court entered the customs, Manchu and Chinese cultures became more and more integrated, and Dongyue Temple was built in the northeast. Since then, the Qing Dynasty has pacified Xinjiang and other places, and the law was implemented in border areas, which prompted the worship of Dongyue Temple to spread to these areas.

Tofu feast

Probably began when the ancient emperor came to Mount Tai to worship Zen, "vegetarian, clean in body and mind". After the excavation and arrangement of chefs in past dynasties, Taishan Tofu Banquet has now become a wonderful flower in Shandong cuisine. There are as many as 150 tofu dishes to choose from at the banquet. Famous dishes cooked with tofu as the main ingredient include: Yipin Tofu, Eight Immortals Yaochi Formula, Fingered Citron Tofu, Ginseng Tofu, Lotus Tofu, and so on. , full of color, smell and taste.

medicated diet

Mount Tai is mountainous, with a suitable climate and abundant water resources. Many kinds of Chinese herbal medicines grow in the deep mountains and dense forests. By exploring and utilizing the rich resources of Chinese herbal medicine in Taishan Mountain, Taian chefs developed Taishan medicinal diet banquet. Medicinal diet has a good effect on preventing and treating diseases and prolonging life. The main dishes are steamed chicken with Ganoderma lucidum, steamed duck with Ganoderma lucidum, stewed mutton with Polygonum multiflorum Thunb, steamed chicken with four-leaf ginseng, rock sugar Yuzhu soup, gingko pork elbow, almond tofu and so on.

Wild vegetable feast

The edible history of wild vegetables in Mount Tai is very long, probably starting when the ancient emperors came to Mount Tai to close the mountain for sacrifice. In addition, Mount Tai has high mountains and dense forests, which also provides natural conditions for the growth of various wild vegetables. Taishan potherb feast can be divided into cold pot, fried egg, salted egg, soup, etc., especially ginger shepherd's purse, fried lotus fragrance and fried pheasant.

Red scale fish

Red scale fish is a unique treasure of Mount Tai, which was once a "tribute" of the court in Qing Dynasty. Red-scale fish grow in the Taishan stream at an altitude of 270 to 800 meters, and generally have a body length of less than 20 cm. It ranks as one of the "five famous fish" in China along with oil fish, bow fish, Huangyu in Qinghai Lake and shad in Fuchunjiang in Erhai Lake. Although the red scale fish is very small, it is radiant and beautiful. Red-scale fish has tender meat, delicious taste, few thorns and no fishy smell, and high nutritional value. Red scale fish can be boiled and fried. The most famous one is "Dragon and Phoenix Pearl Soup", which means that red scale fish is a dragon and fish balls are beads. The finished product has bright color and refreshing taste. Common famous dishes are: dry fried red scale fish, stewed red scale fish, phoenix-tailed red scale fish and so on.

tai'an pancake

Pancakes are famous snacks in Shandong, but the pancakes in Taishan are more distinctive. The pancakes in Taishan are different from those in other places in Shandong. First, the main raw material is millet or corn, and the top grade is millet. Second, there is a fermentation process before Taishan pancake processing. Third, Taishan pancakes are as thin as cicadas' wings and almost transparent. Pancakes taste slightly sour, soft and delicious. At the latest in the Ming Dynasty, pancakes have become a common occurrence in Tai 'an. Snacks with pancakes as the main ingredients include oil pancakes (pancakes baked with scallion oil, tofu or cabbage) and sugar crispy pancakes (baked with millet flour and white sugar). Pancakes and green onions are popular foods in the streets and lanes that women and children know.

Mural legend

Song Zhenzong was very happy after he closed the Taishan Temple. In order to thank the "heavenly book", people decided to build a temple of heaven under Mount Tai and draw a huge mural on the inner wall of the temple of heaven to show the grand scene of Mount Tai's god's patrol.

After the Tai 'an county magistrate received the order, he carefully organized the construction, and the hall was soon built. However, the murals in the temple made him do his best. At that time, the county magistrate summoned all the famous painters nearby and asked them to design a draft for the emperor's approval. As a result, it was sent five or six times, but Zhenzong was still dissatisfied and ordered that if the painting was not designed within ten days, the county magistrate would take the blame.

The county magistrate wanted to make some contribution by building the main hall, so that he could be promoted to be a big official, but he didn't want to make the emperor angry. Seeing that his promotion was going to be ruined, he was very angry, so he took it out on the painter and ordered that within five days, if he could not draw a painting that satisfied the emperor, he would hit the eighty boards again and go to death row.

The judge flew into a rage in court and went home. When his wife saw his sad face, she knew she was in trouble again After asking the Qingyuan Committee, she said to the magistrate, "Your Excellency is really confused. If you put all those painters on death row, do you still want to live? "

"What do you mean?" The magistrate asked nervously.

"What do you think, if these painters are on death row, who will invite the master to design the drawings? In my humble opinion, painting needs aura. If you treat them so rudely, how can they draw? It is better to treat them with courtesy, give them good food and drink, and let them paint with peace of mind, which may help the host tide over the difficulties. "

Hearing this, the county magistrate also felt reasonable, so he ordered people to treat the painter with wine and meat and serve him carefully.

It is said that those painters just want to paint. If they don't draw well, the emperor and Lao Tzu will blame them and lose their lives. He has been scared to death for a long time. Who can safely draw? Just as they were cornered, the wife of the county magistrate sent a message saying, "Don't the emperor think your painting is not powerful enough?" You all saw it when the emperor came to worship Zen, and the emperor was satisfied if you drew it according to that scene. "In short, remind the painters to rush overnight and send the draft to the county magistrate the next day. The county magistrate dedicated it to Song Zhenzong, and it really won the favor of the emperor. Therefore, Dai Temple has such magnificent murals.

Daimiao Shifang was founded by Shi Tianye, Shandong Buzheng, in the 11th year of Qing Emperor Kangxi (AD 1672). Height12m, width 9.8m, depth 3m, overall slightly square, with four columns and three doors. The square starts from three, and the beam is four columns. Up close, almost all stone carving workshops are decorated with stone carvings. There are various relief patterns from the roof, arches under the eaves, beams and columns to the drum-hugging stones on both sides of the pillars and the pedestal under the stone workshop, including eight stone lions. More than 20 groups of vivid images of auspicious birds, animals and birds are carved on the four pillars in different postures, such as "Feng Dan facing the sun", "Two Dragons playing with pearls", "Flocks of cranes making lotus flowers", "Wild and unconstrained style" and.

The whole stone workshop has a unique shape and exquisite carving, which is a treasure in the stone carving art of Qing Dynasty. Couplets are engraved on the north and south sides of the square column, and the south side is inscribed by a stone: "The sky ends, the body is praised, and everything is born; The emperor was shocked, and Sheng Zhuoling was in the east. "In the north, Zhao Xiangxing, governor of Shandong Province and assistant minister of the Ministry of War, wrote:" How can all ethnic groups be respected for their unity? "Mixed with the group spirit, Kyushu is ready to swing in Beijing at any time?" . The two couplets are inspiring and take the lead, which highly summarizes the lofty status of Mount Tai and the prominent prestige of Mount Tai God, so that people can admire it even if they don't enter Dai Temple.
