More and more realize that "livable" Nanyang is really livable! Damei Nanyang is worthy of the name!
Take a break from my busy schedule, watch the sunshine and boundless spring, take my children near the three halls and one hospital, and feel the profound historical, cultural and artistic atmosphere of my beautiful Nanyang.
Nanyang Museum, Nanyang Library, Nanyang Cultural Center and Nanyang Grand Theatre are lined up in a row with great momentum.
Nanyang Museum has a strong sense of history.
In Nanyang Library, the smell of books came at you.
Nanyang Cultural Center highlights Nanyang's rich culture.
Nanyang Grand Theatre is full of artistic flavor.
I can't see such a magnificent three halls and one hospital at once. Let's learn about Nanyang's beautiful past lives first, and naturally choose Nanyang Museum, Nanyang's "Urban Cultural Meeting Room".
Find a parking spot, open the car door, pass through pink cherry blossoms and red leaf heather, and Nanyang Museum is waiting.
Isn't this a "half acre square pond"? The flat black terrazzo, shallow water, pebbles around and flowing water symbolize my beautiful Nanyang culture, which has a long history since ancient times and will never be exhausted.
Looking north, the museum and the cultural center face each other.
As soon as I stepped into the museum, I was stunned by the huge relief on the wall. I can vaguely distinguish the pictures of Confucius and his disciples giving lectures in Zeng, Gong Xihua, the scenes of scientific saints Zhang Heng, Tian Yi, Seismograph and Er Dufu, the thrilling stories of Liu Beisan's going to Zhuge Liang Mountain and Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiunan's northern expedition to create the Eastern Han Dynasty ... The anecdotes of celebrities related to Nanyang are unobstructed.
The giant Han relief on the left wall is a portrait of Nu Wa. China culture really exudes eternal charm in the whole China culture.
Climbing the stairs, I came to the paleontological exhibition hall, and saw the fossil restoration map of Babel, China, the dinosaur skeleton fossil of Zhuge Nanyang, the claw dragon restoration map of Zhang Xixia, and the dinosaur restoration map of Baotianman, Henan.
From the pictures, we know that the remote ancestor of human beings was the Paleolithic Age from 3 million years ago to about 1 10,000 years ago. At that time, Nanyang had a warm and humid climate and rich animal species, which provided a suitable place for ancient humans to thrive. Here, the ancestors used tools such as stone tools and bones to work, and learned to use fire for simple food processing.
After entering the Neolithic Age, pottery-making technology has made great progress. Mud strip method is the most widely used and longest-lasting ceramic body forming technology in this period. The wheel method witnessed the increasingly sophisticated pottery-making technology and the existence of sacrificial pits, indicating that there may have been primitive religious beliefs at that time.
History entered the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, and Nanyang was the market of southern land and Xia people in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties. After the implementation of the enfeoffment system, Nanyang land kingdom rose. Hubei historical site is near Nanyang Shiqiao, which was built at the end of Shang Dynasty. It turns out that the place where I studied in primary school and junior high school turned out to be the place in ancient Hubei! How can I know that my beautiful Nanyang has long been famous in history without going into the museum!
In the early Spring and Autumn Period, Chu began the process of expanding its territory to the north, and Nanyang, which borders its north, was undoubtedly the primary strategic goal. After conquering King Wen of Chu and King Wu of Wu, the whole territory of Nanyang entered the territory of the State of Chu.
Nanyang was at the core of politics, economy and culture in Han Dynasty. Politically, a group of foreign politicians, represented by Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, constituted the main body of the ruling regime in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Nanyang was called "the land of emperors" and "the southern capital". Economically, Nanyang's agricultural handicraft industry prospered and became a pivotal metropolis, known as "business all over the world, rich in the sea"; Culturally, Nanyang boasts four major cultures, with a hundred schools of thought contending, prosperous literature and art, developed science and technology and culture, and enjoys a good reputation throughout the country. It can be called the land of Longxing, the county with strong arms and the land of Dunan Emperor.
Especially standing in front of the beautiful pictures of seismograph, armillary sphere, Hou Fengyi and compass, I really understood the profound connotation behind the word "Wen Jing's dimension".
The wheel of history came to the Three Kingdoms, the Jin Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties. At that time, the regime in the Central Plains was in turmoil and wars were frequent. Nanyang has a superior geographical position and has become a stage and battlefield for various political forces to compete. North and South cultures converge here, and many famous political, military and ideological figures stand out. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the political situation was stable, and Nanyang reappeared the bustling scene of "high-rise buildings are opposite to Mozi, and the first one is connected with Qingshan". During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Nanyang was the first to bear the brunt of the confrontation between the North and the South. Both the North and South regimes regarded Nanyang as an important area for development, and their economic and cultural level was constantly improving.
No wonder Nanyang has always been called the land of Feng Shui.
During the Northern Song Dynasty, Nanyang enjoyed a special political position and was an important economic pillar of the country. From the Southern Song Dynasty to the end of Yuan Dynasty, Nanyang was in the confrontation zone between Song, Jin and song and yuan war, and suffered serious political, economic and cultural trauma, resulting in a sharp decline in population. After the reunification of the Yuan Dynasty, immigrants entered Nanyang to persuade farmers to teach, and Nanyang's economy was restored and developed. This period can be called "Wang Jun Rong Xin Xing".
A large number of unearthed cultural relics are proof.
Nanyang was called "the thoroughfare of nine provinces" in the Ming Dynasty, with developed land and water transportation and prosperous business travel, and it was the main distribution center for north and south materials. There are many humanities and academies here, which gave birth to the tradition of respecting teachers and valuing Taoism in Nanyang. The construction of Nanyang in Wang Jianfu in the Ming Dynasty and Meihua City in the Qing Dynasty formed a unique urban pattern of Nanyang, leaving a rich connotation of ancient urban architecture.
Walking slowly and marveling all the way, my daughter and I watched attentively and appreciated it seriously. My daughter was even more excited as she walked, saying that she had learned this content in the textbook, and the picture was particularly familiar with the examination questions ... My son and niece were young and finished browsing early, and they waited for us in the square downstairs with my husband and sister-in-law for a long time before they were satisfied.
If we hadn't walked in here, how would we know that our roots in Nanyang are so deeply rooted in the center of this fertile land in China? How many scenes of heavy damage and recovery, prosperity and progress have been staged here? Once Nanyang was rich in products and outstanding people, now Nanyang is colorful and ecologically livable.
Walking out of the museum, my shock has reached an unimaginable level. The beautiful Nanyang impressed me deeply!
I am proud that I am from Nanyang.
