Description of Qinghefang Scenic Spot:

Qinghefang Historic District-the most famous block in Hangzhou's history, and the only well-preserved old block in Hangzhou at present, is a microcosm of Hangzhou's long history.

The history of Qinghefang originated in the Southern Song Dynasty. In the Southern Song Dynasty, Hangzhou was the capital, and Jiuli Imperial City was built, and Shilitian Street (now Zhongshan Middle Road) was opened. As a result, on the outskirts of Miyagi and on both sides of Tianjie, imperial relatives, dignitaries and chamberlains built private houses in succession. Jiande Shougong in the east of Zhonghe River, Kaiyuan Palace in Shanghuaguang, Wangfudi in Houjing Street and Longxiang Palace in Huimin Street. The name of Qinghefang was related to Zhang Jun, a surname at that time. In the third year of Jianyan (1129), Zhang Jun repelled the nomads from Mingzhou (now Ningbo) and won a great victory in Gao Qiao. In his later years, he was made king of Qinghe County, which was very popular. He built Qinghe County Palace in Taiping Lane of Hefang Street today, so this area is called Qinghe Square. At that time, there were many shops, restaurants and tea shops in this area, and there was an endless stream of business. Qinghefang Street was once the most prosperous business district in Hangzhou. It was known as the former court in ancient times. The former court refers to the former court, that is, the imperial city of Phoenix Mountain in the Southern Song Dynasty, and the latter refers to the shops in the north, that is, Hefang Street. It went through Yuan, Ming, Qing and the Republic of China, and until the eve of liberation, this area was still a prosperous commercial area in Hang Cheng.

Many century-old shops in Hangzhou are concentrated in this area. Qinghefang flourished in the Song Dynasty and flourished in the Qing Dynasty. Most of the existing ancient buildings in the block were built in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, such as Huqingyutang, Wanlong Ham Restaurant and Yangtang Hotel, which were built at this time. Although the years are ruthless, the charm is now unique.

With the acceleration of the reconstruction of the old city of Hangzhou, ancient buildings such as ancient streets and old shops are disappearing in urban areas, and now more than 7% of the old city areas in Hangzhou no longer exist. Located at the four corners of the intersection of Hefang Street and Zhongshan Middle Road, it is the heart of the traditional block in Hang Cheng, and it is also the only intact historical section in the ancient city of Hangzhou. Here, famous century-old shops such as Kong Fengchun and Fang Huichun Hall stand out, surrounded by celebrities' former residences, and all kinds of buildings gather together. In March, 1999, the widening and reconstruction project of Hefang Street was launched in an all-round way, and the characters were removed from the walls of the four-corner building, and the trees were demolished. The old shops in the ancient street would be destroyed when the bulldozers approached day by day!

Huang Xiaohang, a member of the Democratic National Construction Association and deputy editor-in-chief of Zhejiang Market Herald, wrote to the main leaders of the Hangzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, demanding that the demolition work in the four corners and its vicinity be stopped immediately. Chou Baoxing, acting mayor of Hangzhou, gave instructions on the letter the next day. Li Jinming, deputy secretary of Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee and secretary of Hangzhou Municipal Party Committee, saw Huang Xiaohang's letter and immediately gave instructions. The relevant departments conveyed the spirit of instructions at all levels, and quickly organized personnel to conduct on-site reconnaissance, and the demolition project was finally suspended.

Since April 8th, 2, Shangcheng District Government has been protecting the historical buildings of Qinghefang, and at the same time, it has developed new streetscapes. According to the principle of "repairing the old as the old", it has been protected strictly according to its original features. At present, Qinghefang historical block covers an area of 13,66 hectares, and the business layout of the whole block, in addition to retaining the famous time-honored brands in the area, has been introduced into businesses for lease and joint venture.

In October, 22, Qinghefang Historic District in Hangzhou was officially opened one and a half years after the renovation and protection project was officially started. The 46-meter-long pedestrian street condensed the street features of Hangzhou in Ming and Qing Dynasties, and became the focus of attention of citizens and domestic and foreign tourists. After transformation, Qinghefang Historic District is gradually forming a cultural, entertainment, commercial and sightseeing district with strong traditional flavor. It has become a frequent place for Hangzhou people and a must for outsiders. Its restoration and transformation left a valuable historical and cultural heritage for Hangzhou.

The following is a brief introduction to the famous century-old brand, which is also a typical ancient building:

Huqingyutang

is located in Dajing Lane, the northern foot of Wu Shan, and was founded on the basis of the ancient buildings of pharmacies. The ancient architectural complex was founded by Hu Xueyan, a red-topped businessman in the late Qing Dynasty. Now it is well preserved, with high walls and gates and dignified weather. The design is ingenious, the whole body is like a crane, the gatehouse is like a crane head, the corridor is like a crane neck, and the hall is like a crane body, with exquisite materials and exquisite carving and painting, which is typical of simplicity. It is accompanied by a square pavilion, a curved bridge and a fountain for beauty. Huqingyutang covers an area of 3, square meters and contains more than 16 pieces of cultural relics. It consists of five parts: exhibition hall, traditional Chinese medicine manual workshop, health care clinic, business hall and medicated diet hall. Visitors can not only see the essence of the treasure house of traditional Chinese medicine, but also enjoy the ancient architecture of Jiangnan Yaofu, which is a national cultural protection unit.

According to legend, once Hu Xueyan's concubine fell ill, Hu Xueyan sent a servant to Ye Zhongde Hall to get some medicine. After getting it back, he found that several medicines had gone moldy and deteriorated, and Hu Xueyan sent someone to change them. Unexpectedly, the medicine was not changed, but it was ridiculed by Ye Zhongde Hall's associates with deep pockets: This medicine is the only one in our shop, and it is better. Please ask Mr. Hu to open a medicine number yourself. Hu Xueyan was furious after hearing this: How can you play with human life? Do you really think that I can't afford to open a pharmacy in Hu Xueyan? This anger made Hu Xueyan determined to open a pharmacy bigger than Ye Zhongdetang. In the 13th year of Tongzhi in Qing Dynasty (1874), Hu Xueyan began to build the Qingyutang drugstore. In the 4th year of Guangxu, Dajingxiang store was completed and officially opened. But Hu Xueyan did not forget the hate of being bullied, and personally wrote a warning, and made a plaque to hang inside to remind the store's associates. At that time, Zhejiang famous doctors were widely invited to study the drug number, and the authentic herbs were carefully prepared into medicines, which made it famous in the north and south of the Yangtze River, so there was a saying that there was Qingyutang in the south and Tongrentang in the north, and Hu Xueyan himself was also known as the king of medicine in the south of the Yangtze River.

was founded in the sixth year of Qing Shunzhi (1649). Legend has it that it was created by Fang Qingyi (word Zaichun) in Qiantang, which means rejuvenation. Therefore, taking rejuvenation as the name of the store, Fang Qingqing was afraid of being from a family of traditional Chinese medicine, proficient in pharmacology and good at pediatrics. Xiaoer Huichun Pill, which was refined by secret recipes handed down from family, is well-known in Hang Cheng. Huichuntang, with a strong family background, is one of the six drug stores (Hu Qingyutang, Wan Chengzhi Hall, Ye Zhongdetang, Zhang Tongtai Hall, Taishan Hall and Huichuntang Hall) that manipulated the Hang Cheng medicinal materials market in the late Qing Dynasty. At the beginning of the Republic of China, with the political turmoil, Huichuntang began to decline. In 1931, its capital was only 7,2 yuan, accounting for 7% of Hu Qingyutang's wholesale business. On the eve of liberation, it was on the verge of bankruptcy. After 1955, it was merged into Hu Qingyutang.

since ancient times, Hangzhou has been one of the main producing areas of fans in China. Wang Xingji Fan Village was founded in the first year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty (1875

Black paper gold painting pays attention to the selection of materials, exquisite workmanship, smooth wooden fan bones, natural patterns, soft and elastic; The texture of the sector is cotton, tough, fine and clean, and the color is black and bright. Legend has it that one day, a scholar took a black paper gold fan made by Wang Xingji for a trip. When he went out, the sun was shining high, and the clouds were gathering in an instant. A sudden thunderstorm made it too late for people to escape. The scholar opened the fan to cover his head, and in a moment, the sun suddenly stopped. Although the fan was soaked, it didn't fade. The scholar put the fan in the sun to dry, but it didn't become warped, so there was a saying that the fan was half an umbrella. Sandalwood fans are popular with women, and the fragrance of fans is full of wind, which makes people relaxed and happy. To make the fan ribs of sandalwood fans (without fans), the first-class sandalwood is selected, which has the characteristics of keeping the fragrance in the fan.

Zhuangyuanlou

Zhuangyuanguan is a painting gallery without a store name originally opened in Qinghefang. It was founded in the tenth year of Tongzhi in Qing Dynasty (1871) and was opened by Wang Shangrong, a native of Ningbo, specializing in Ning-style noodle soup business. There is another story about the origin of Zhuangyuan Pavilion. One evening, a scholar dressed in an old blue shirt walked into a noodle shop in Wang Shangrong and ordered a bowl of noodle soup. When Wang Shangrong heard that he was a fellow countryman, he started a conversation with the scholar. During the conversation, I learned that the scholar came to the provincial capital to take the exam, but he had not found a place to live because of his poor family. Wang Shangrong is a warm-hearted man, so he said to the scholar, If you don't mind, come to my shop. Seeing this fellow countryman's sincerity, the scholar agreed. The second most important thing is to take the entrance examination. Wang Shangrong specially cooked a bowl of double noodles for the scholar. The so-called "double-yuan noodles" are egg-and-meat noodles, which means that both the provincial examination and the Beijing examination were successful. On the day after the examination, Wang Shangrong cooked several Ningbo dishes, such as big soup, yellow croaker and Ningshi silk, and compared them with the scholar. While waiting for the release of the list, the scholar helped in the shop. Soon, the scholar was selected, and he was about to prepare for the entrance examination in Beijing, but there was not enough travelling expenses around him, so Wang Shangrong took the initiative to collect the travelling expenses for the scholar. Before he left, Wang Shangrong cooked a bowl of yellow croaker noodles for the scholar, which meant that he would definitely jump the dragon gate when he went to Beijing for the examination. Sure enough, this time, scholars were promoted to Jinshi in the examination, leaving Jiangxi alone. On the way to his post, the scholar went to Hangzhou to thank Wang Shangrong and thousands of Xie Wan, and wrote the words Zhuangyuanlou as a farewell. From then on, the noodle shop in Wang Shangrong had an elegant name.

Xileyuan

When and by whom Xileyuan Yangtang Hotel was founded, it is impossible to find out because of its long history. According to modern information, the store was originally opened opposite to phoenix temple in Yangbatou, but later moved to Hefang Street because the foundation of the road repair shop was demolished. The Yangtang Hotel in Hangzhou began in the Southern Song Dynasty and flourished in the Yuan Dynasty. In the Yuan Dynasty, a large number of Arab businessmen came to Hangzhou. At that time, Yangbatou became their gathering area, and there were shops supplying beef and mutton dishes, snacks and food. Arab food culture began to infiltrate into Hangzhou's food market, resulting in a mutton soup restaurant that has been handed down to this day, greatly enriching Hangzhou's traditional food culture.
