Flip through history
What really made Yilan famous was the film Aolei Yilan, which was shot by the famous director Tang in the late 1970s. The story is about the defense war against Russia in Heilongjiang and Songhua River basins in the north of the motherland at the end of 19 and the beginning of the 20th century. This film was written and shot in Yilan, so Yilan became famous at home and abroad.
However, when we enter Yilan and turn over the history, it is more famous than Aolei Yilan that it is "the difficulty of Jingkang". Two emperors of the Northern Song Dynasty, Qin Hui, were kidnapped by jurchen and taken to the lake to change their way (that is, today's Yilan City) to "sit in the well and watch the sky", which added an unusual cultural color to this small town. Left a lot of sad poems: "Looking back at my home mountain for three thousand miles, my eyes broke and the geese flew south."
Maybe history shouldn't end like this, maybe it shouldn't end like this. After less than two dynasties, the irresistible "Long Mai" finally recovered the incense of the real dragon emperor. Mongolian timur, the sixth ancestor of Nuerhachi in Qing Dynasty, was born in Madatun, west of Yilan City. No wonder Emperor Qianlong said during an unannounced visit to San surname (now Yilan) that it was "three thousand miles north of Saibei and sixteen states south of the Yangtze River"!
Yilan, known as the third surname in history, is a Chinese translation of Yilan Hala in Manchu. From the Tang Dynasty to the present, fortifications have been built here for generations. In the Tang Dynasty, Bohai State set up Delhi House in Yilan; After Liao destroyed the Bohai Sea, Heishuige (the last leather) was renamed Shengzhen, with five parts, among which Yilan was the base of Yueli. The Yuan Dynasty set up Huliguai and Woduoliwan Hu Mansion in Yilan; In Ming Dynasty, Huli changed to Wei, and in Qing Dynasty, Sanmen Yamen was established, which was under the jurisdiction of Jilin General, and governed the vast territory of Wusuli River, Sakhalin Island, Bukas Sea (now the Sea of Okhotsk) in the middle and lower reaches of Heilongjiang.
The winding Woken River flows quietly, and the ancestors of Yilan flourished here, creating a precedent in human history. 1950 The Woken Hada Cave, discovered by archaeologists, is located on the mountainside of Hada Mountain on the east side of Woken River in the county town, about 85 meters from the ground, with its entrance slightly southwest. The cave is 12 meters long, which was the habitat of an ancient human family 5700-6000 years ago and was later changed into a tomb. Precious cultural relics such as human bones, stone tools, pottery fragments, jade articles, production tools and stone axes were found in the caves. It is said that people squatted on their knees in their mother's abdomen, so the ancients also adopted this posture after death and returned to their mother's abdomen.
In 1997, on the east bank of Mudanjiang in the south of the city, the provincial archaeological team discovered an ancient village site of the Han Dynasty, and unearthed more than 500 precious cultural relics such as bones, stone tools, pottery and iron, which provided strong evidence for revealing the history and culture of Yilan before 2000.
Contemporary Yilan
The ancient river has gone through many vicissitudes, and the ancient story has become a dusty history. They are industrious and simple ancestors, who built the cornerstone of the building of human civilization in Yilan and wrote magnificent poems of ancient civilization in Yilan with fire and stone carvings.
Climbing high and overlooking, Yilan is surrounded by mountains. Xiaoxing 'anling, Wandashan and Zhangguangcailing meet here. Yilan is surrounded by green water again. Songhua River, Mudanjiang River, Woken River and Balan River meet unexpectedly in these mountains. The clear Mudanjiang River and the slightly turbid Songhua River have distinct latitude and longitude. Stop at the bank where the two rivers meet and lift your eyes to the west. The smoke waves are vast, the osprey is flying, the white sails are scattered all over the place, and the Cui Hua is full of green grass-when the sun sets, the river flowers that win the fire will jump endlessly, as if to jump into your arms. At this time, people can't help chanting Bai Juyi's "Work at sunrise, rest at sunset, and spring scenery is as beautiful as blue, and you can't forget Jiangnan." This poem. The lush green hills of Shendai condense infinite mystery, and the nature hidden in the chest is a story that shakes the past and shines the present. The mountain is as proud as water, and the water is as quiet as a mountain. Somehow, this idea came to my mind: Emperor Qin Hui, who enjoyed all the splendor in the world, died in such a beautiful and quiet environment, although he left behind the hatred of national subjugation, which was better than being buried by Marco Polo.
In the north of the county seat and the south bank of Songhua River, the ruins of the wall of the five kingdoms of Liao and Jin are still preserved. According to research, the city is rectangular, with a length of 850 meters, a width of 450 meters and a circumference of 2600 meters. The existing city wall is about 2m high, 5m wide at the bottom and1.5m wide at the top. The site was designated as a provincial key cultural relics protection unit in 1956.
There are eight original temples in Yilan: Fire Temple, Niangniang Temple, Guan Yue Temple, God of Wealth Temple, Laoye Temple, Longwang Temple, Mosque and Ciyun Temple. It was destroyed before and after the Cultural Revolution, but the existing temples still attract people to stop and watch. Ancient buildings such as Sanhe Courtyard and Siheyuan in Qing Dynasty are also well preserved. The mosque built in A.D. 1737 is a cultural and historical landscape in Yilan. At that time, Muslim compatriots living in Yilan raised funds to build this chanting shrine for listening to chanting and festival gatherings. At that time, the imperial court was very concerned about the rise and fall of frontier ethnic minorities. Emperor Qianlong specially presented a pair of dragon and phoenix coffins to Yilan Mosque. Zuo, a famous patriotic general in Qing Dynasty and a general in Northeast China, wrote a huge plaque for the mosque "Tiankai Ancient Religion".
Compared with mosques, Ciyun Temple is the most perfect ancient architectural complex among the existing temples in Yilan. This temple was built in 1928 by General Du Li, the anti-Japanese general and commander of Yilan, for his sister Master Qinglian. The temple faces south, and the gate is magnificent. There are bells and drums on the second floor, with the Heavenly King Hall, Mahayana Hall, Sutra Pavilion and Lecture Hall in the middle. The three halls are neatly arranged on a central axis from south to north, forming a balanced, symmetrical and rigorous architectural style. In front of the Heavenly King Hall, the mighty master was majestic and the ancient willow hung low. The bright sunshine shines in the quiet temple, and the brick roads, vigorous pines and cypresses, unique pavilions, antique buildings and soothing and melodious twilight drums and morning bells make Ciyun Temple more and more quiet and mysterious. Every temple fair on April 18 of the lunar calendar, domestic and foreign tourists gather. Temple fairs and economic singing make it a beautiful tourist landscape in the east of Longjiang.
food culture
Yilan's food culture is very famous, including traditional palace dishes, flavor snacks, three cakes (silk cakes, pies and gluten cakes), slate barbecue, and especially the fragrant Yilan game hot pot. It is said that Emperor Qin Hui was exiled here. Although he also brought a chef, the Jin people had orders not to cook without authorization. But the second emperor couldn't get used to the half-baked game cooked by Jin people. Every time I ate it badly, the chef cooked it in a copper pot in the name of heating the food. The delicacies cooked in its copper furnace have become wonderful foods in Yilan from generation to generation.
Yilan people love to wear and pursue fashion, which mainly comes from "Yilan produces beautiful women". According to legend, Qin Hui was taken captive by the Jin people to the head of the State of Wu, bringing with him 3,000 beautiful women. For a time, most of them lived in the folk, and their daughter's home was charming and natural. There are many beautiful women in Yilan, who dare to wear and love to wear, and it is common to advocate fashion clothes.
Yilan native, pure and standard pronunciation, appropriate skills, warm and generous personality and courtesy. You can't deny that it originated from the cultural collision between the North and the South caused by the great migration of the two emperors and their nobles in the palace, and its rich historical and cultural heritage made it famous at home and abroad.
Culture is an immortal productive force. Standing on the ruins of the five kingdoms city, we seem to hear the long-term generosity of the second emperor, Long Tu. Looking for the empty Yuan Ye in Woduoli City, we seem to see the figure of a powerful nation fighting in the south and the north; So many teas, so many falcons, whistling arrows. Once a warm wine singer, Jin Goma Tie, has quietly passed away in the clouds of meteors.
