Memorial Temple of Wen Tianxiang

Wen Tianxiang, named Wenshan, was appointed prime minister in 1276. In 1278, the soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty invaded and fought against the Yuan Dynasty. After defeat, they were captured and taken to Dadu, where they were imprisoned for four years. Wen Tianxiang never wavered in the face of the Yuan rulers' combination of hard and soft, kindness and authority, and vowed to die. In prison, he wrote an immortal song of righteousness, which showed his national integrity. The ancestral hall sits in the south, which is composed of three parts: the gate, the hall and the hall, covering an area of nearly 600 square meters. Some precious cultural relics of the original ancestral hall are preserved in the hall. For example, the stele of biography of song prime minister in Ming Dynasty, the stele of rebuilding stele in Qing Dynasty and the stele of Guogong portrait of song prime minister. "Life story Exhibition" briefly introduces Wen Tianxiang's heroic deeds in his youth, 15 years after he became an official, fighting against Yuan Dynasty, dying, raising the banner of war again, being defeated and captured, and dying of Chu prisoners. On the front of the indoor screen is Mao Zedong's handwritten "who has never died in life since ancient times, let the heart shine on Han Qing", and on the back is the full text of Zhengqi song written by Wen Tianxiang. There is still a jujube tree in the backyard. It is said that it was planted by Wen Tianxiang himself during his imprisonment. The tree body tilted to the South symbolizes Wen Tianxiang's spirit of "a piece of needle stone in the heart of a minister, not a guide to swear endlessly". Standing in front of the hall, we can deeply appreciate the lofty spirit of patriotism and the national integrity of "wealth can't be lewd, power can't be subdued".

Located at No. 15, Zhongshan East Road, Nantou City, Nanshan District, Shenzhen City, Xinguo official document Tianxiang temple was built in the Jiaqing period of Qing Dynasty to commemorate the national hero Wen Tianxiang. "Xin Gong" is the title of Wen Tianxiang. In the early Song Dynasty, duanzong Jing Yanchu worshipped Wen Tianxiang as the prime minister and secret envoy of Zuo, and as the governor of the army. Nantou "Xin Guo Guan Shi Ci", a monumental monument, is the most complete and largest ancient building in Nantou city.
