Wencheng County, located in the west of Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province, is the hometown of Liu Ji (Liu Bowen), the first counselor of the Ming Dynasty. "Wencheng" is Liu Bowen's posthumous name.

Wencheng County is the first county in my country named after a celebrity's posthumous title.

Special geography has created special humanities. Among the population of Wencheng County, ethnic minorities account for about 5%, and the vast majority are She ethnic groups.

The beauty of Wencheng lies not only in the beautiful scenery seen by the little-known She people, but also in the "Tai Gong Spirit" that has been passed down for more than 700 years.

It is a She ethnic village belonging to Xikeng She Autonomous Township in Wencheng County.

The She people are a nomadic farming nation that has been hidden in the mountains of Guangdong, Fujian, and Zhejiang for thousands of years. She, pronounced she (one sound), means "slash-and-burn farming."

The She people like to sing folk songs and live in groups.

Jean Kawamura also has this characteristic.

The village is full of various B&B courtyards, which are uneven and orderly, beautiful and fresh.

Let’s check out the Kawacun style spot: the She tribe’s long table banquet.

The way of eating of the She people is very characteristic of the nation.

The 100-meter-long table banquet in a snake formation is the most solemn hospitality etiquette in Jean Kawamura.

In the past, in the mountains, the long table banquet was a large-scale event used by the She people to receive married women. Tourists were divided into groups of 4, and each group received a large round grass plate. First, 6 cold dishes were served, and then 11 were served one after another.

Hot dishes.

The young men of the She ethnic group will perform performances, while the girls of the She ethnic group will dress in costumes, pour tea and wine for each guest, send blessings, and sometimes dance to folk songs.

At the long table banquet, no matter whether it is cold dishes, hot dishes or staple food, everything is served in bowls or plates.

As soon as one group finished eating, the next group was seated, and the scene was quite spectacular.

Liu Ji's hometown Liu Ji's hometown is located in Wuyang Village, Nantian Town, Wencheng County, Wenzhou, Zhejiang, and is a national key cultural relics protection unit.

Liu Ji, courtesy name Bowen, was a grand master-level figure in the Ming Dynasty who assisted Zhu Yuanzhang to bring peace to the world. He had a miraculous plan and unified the country.

Check-in points of Liu Ji’s hometown: ①, Liu Ji’s ancestral house is a low-key, simple and small courtyard with a story.

There is a screen wall first when entering the door, but other people's screen walls are used to ward off evil spirits, while Liu Bowen's screen wall is used to ward off blessings.

Visitors will hear here for the first time the concept of "too much blessing is not good for the owner", just like Liu Ji's character: fullness leads to overflow, surplus leads to loss. People should be content and not greedy.

②, Wuyang Lotus In Liu Ji’s hometown, what people visit is not a cookie-cutter old house, old house, or museum, but a beautiful and simple village with beautiful paintings, the lotus pond in front of Liu Ji’s house

Covering an area of ??100 acres, it is Wuyang’s free lotus breeding base throughout the year.

③, Bowen’s family banquet is a must-eat delicacy in Bowen’s hometown.

Every dish on the dinner table is related to Liu Bowen, and every dish is a story.

Among them, snails, lotus roots, lotus seeds, and fish are all pure natural green foods produced in the hundred-acre lotus pond at the door of Bowen's hometown.

Liu Ji Temple Liu Ji was to Wencheng what Confucius was to Qufu.

Liu Ji Temple was built in the third year of Ming Shun's reign (AD 1458). Its location is known as the "Sixth Blessed Place among the Seventy-Two in the World".

Here, visitors will get to know the national intangible cultural heritage: Taigong Festival.

Every year, Wencheng adults hold a grand sacrificial ceremony for Liu Ji, which has become a ritual for the people of Wencheng County.

We often say that life should have a sense of ritual.

What is a sense of ritual?

The sense of ritual is the spiritual pillar of a person, a family, or even an entire county.

Liuji Temple style check-in points: ①, the famous couplets and plaques written by emperors, generals, ministers and celebrities of the past dynasties. They are connected in a piece and arranged in rows. They have experienced wind, frost, blood and rain, and it is not easy to preserve them.

②, the eternal wonder of four trees in one.

There is a very thick tree in Liuji Temple. If you look closely, it is surrounded by four plants. No one can tell how old it is or what the names of these four plants are.

When I visited the former residence of Su Buqing in Pingyang County before, I saw a "husband and wife tree", which is a big tree grown from two plants hugging each other.

And people say that this kind of tree with four plants growing together is called a "family tree". It is very auspicious, just like a family of four. Now, isn't it popular to have a second child?

Anfu Temple is located in Tiansheng Mountain, Xikeng Town, Wencheng. It was built in the third year of Yuanhe, Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty. It has the largest building area of ??temples in Zhejiang Province. At the same time, it ranks among the top five temples in my country that enshrine the Medicine Buddha.

Check-in points of Anfu Temple: ①, the 18-meter-long tree-turned-jade tree that is the treasure of the temple and weighs more than 20 tons.

In 2007, this tree-turned-jade was unearthed in Xinjiang. It was later sold for 45 million yuan at a large auction and later donated to Anfu Temple. It represents: the universe, the jade knot and the treasure, immortality.

Rot, the spirit of heaven and earth.

②, Sun Platform and Moon Pond.

In the huge square at the entrance of Anfu Temple, there is a moon-shaped pool, and the surrounding platform is like a huge sun. Their combination represents: the circle is missing the final point, and the sun and the moon shine together.

This is the highest state of longevity.

③, the heart-washing pool and the hand-washing pool.
