Shuimogou Park

"Xiangfei" is one of the eight traditional scenic spots in Urumqi. Soon after the construction of Urumqi city began in 1755, someone began to build Shuimogou in this long and narrow valley, which is about one kilometer long. In 1900, zailan, the imperial assistant of the Qing Dynasty, was severely punished by the Allied forces of the eight countries for encouraging Empress Dowager Cixi to use the Boxer Rebellion to fight against foreign powers, and was exiled to Xinjiang. Zailan liked the scenery of Shuimogou very much and invested in the construction of "Xiaocao Pavilion", "Yidou Pavilion" and "Bagua Pavilion". Today, the pines and cypresses here are green, the springs are gushing, and the ancient wooden Pavilion Temple has become a quiet and beautiful tourist attraction. In the park, there are the most modern "Xin'an shooting tide" in mainland China, Moon Island, Austrian cable car, Qingquan temple, etc. Shuimogou hot spring in Shuimogou Park, Tangshan hot spring in Nanjing and HuaQingChi hot spring in Lintong are the three most famous hot springs in China. The water temperature of Shuimogou hot spring is constant, ranging from 38 ° C to 40 ° C in winter and summer. Six kinds of chemical components meet the national medical standards, which can be called hydrogen sulfide spring, fluorine spring, phosphoric acid spring, metasilicic acid spring and chloride spring. The hot spring sanatorium here has a full set of modern medical equipment with a value of about 30 million yuan, which is assisted by the Japanese government.

Development history

Around 2000, the government of Shuimogou District carried out a series of reconstruction and construction of Shuimogou and its surrounding environment, and built Shuimogou scenic spot, covering an area of 36 square kilometers. At present, Shuimogou scenic spot is composed of "five mountains and one river" (Qingquan mountain, Hongqiao mountain, Wenquan mountain, shuita mountain, Xuelian mountain and Shuimo River). It is a national AAAA scenic spot with ice and snow customs and beautiful landscape.

geographical environment

Shuimogou, located in the eastern suburb of Urumqi City, is a long and narrow valley with a length of more than 1 km. There are dozens of springs in the valley, which flow into streams and run down from south to North all year round. As early as 1733, in order to solve the problem of flour and grain processing in the garrison, the Qing government used 240 Liang silver to buy two plates of water mill to grind flour here, hence the name Shuimogou.

Since then, the dignitaries and literati came to Urumqi and stopped to have a rest in Shuimogou. They left a lot of beautiful poems for Shuimogou. Therefore, as early as the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty more than 200 years ago, it was well-known here.

Main attractions

gate

When you come to the scenic spot, the first thing you see is a new and unique gate of the scenic spot. This is an ancient eaves style building imitating qingdielou, covering an area of 285 square meters. The main building is more than 14 meters high. The semi-circular entrance span is 14.26 meters. Its huge arc line reflects the image of Shuimo River running down. On the roof and beams, there are also pictures, colorful and lifelike. It is said that this kind of design is unique among the similar buildings in China. No matter from a distance or near, it gives people a strong visual impact and shows a tall and grand style.

When you step into the gate, you can see the gurgling stream. Above the stream, there is an antique bridge - "Jiulong bridge", whose architectural style is very harmonious with the gate. There are sidewalks on both sides of the bridge. There are 24 white marble columns with exquisite stone lions carved on their heads. The shape of stone lions on each column is different, implying that there are 24 different solar terms in a year, implying that people will have a prosperous year, auspicious and peaceful.

Statue of Ji Xiaolan

Just opposite the Kowloon Bridge is the statue of Ji Xiaolan holding a big cigarette bag. In the 33rd year of Qianlong (1768 AD), Ji Xiaolan was "relegated to Xinjiang lightly" by Qianlong because he was suspected of spreading secret information to Lu Jianzhen, the salt transportation envoy of Lianghuai, in the "salt diversion case of Lianghuai". During this period, he once took his partner to an outing in Shuimogou, and left a famous poem: "the boundary broke, the mountain was green, the water was warm and the water was cool. If there is wind and prosperity, visitors can only borrow the curtain pavilion from the general. "

Jieguan Pavilion

On the right side of the statue is the Jieguan Pavilion. In 1901 (the 27th year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty), Zaiyi, the nobleman of the Qing court, the Prime Minister of fengduan, the Minister of state affairs yamen, and zailan, the "Duke of Zhenguo", were sent to Urumqi as scapegoats in order to resolve the discontent of the Chinese people. However, during their exile, they still enjoyed the treatment of imperial relatives and lived a luxurious life in Urumqi. At that time, Zai Lan was very fond of the charming scenery of Shuimogou, so he spent money to build pavilions and pavilions in Shuimogou for his entertainment. In order to facilitate his reception of resident officials, relatives and friends, he built a reception Pavilion here. It is said that the original building was made of mud and wood, but the carved beams and painted buildings were gorgeous. Unfortunately, they collapsed during the period of the Republic of China. The present Jieguan Pavilion, built in 2003, is the God of wealth Hall of Qingquan temple.

Xiangfei takes a bath

On the right side of Jieguan Pavilion, there is a sculpture. It is said that this is the place where "Xiangfei goes out to bath". It is said that in 1760, a 26 year old Uighur girl named maimaire in Kashgar was summoned to Beijing for her family's contribution to pacifying the rebellion. When she passed Shuimogou, she saw the mountains, ancient trees, water mist and charming scenery, so she took a bath in Shuimogou. After entering Beijing, Qianlong was very fond of her. She was called "Xiangfei" because of her strong fragrance. "Xiangfei bathing" used to be one of the eight old scenes in Urumqi. Now there is "Xiangfei stone" in the park, which is said to be the stone to cool clothes after "Xiangfei bathing". It is also said that Xiangfei was Rong Fei of Qianlong, a Hui nationality. According to the biography of empress concubine in the draft of Qing Dynasty history, "Rong Fei, he Zhuo's, Huibu Taiji and zhalai's daughter. When I first entered the palace, I was called a noble man. Progressive is imperial concubine. I'm sorry

Hanwenling

Up there is a long Hanwen ridge. With a total length of 360 meters, hanwenling was built three times in three years.

The interpretation of Ci Hai in hanwenling is "the place where Wenhan meets". The first phase of the project was built in 1999, mainly in the shape of rockery, with 15 pieces of black high-quality granite of different shapes inlaid between the mountain walls. Each piece of granite is engraved with a poem, which is a masterpiece left by ancient and modern literati when they visited Shuimogou.

At the far left end of hanwenling, there is a huge stone carving shaped like an open history book, on which the characters "hanwenling" are engraved.

On the hillside above the stone carvings, there is a "Bowang Pavilion" with simple shape and thatched grass. In the pavilion stands a white jade statue of Ji Xiaolan, a Bachelor of the Qing Dynasty.

The second phase of hanwenling project was founded in 2000. In addition to collecting 19 Ancient Poems, four ancient poems by Ji Xiaolan, a famous scholar in Qing Dynasty, such as "tanhou goes to the city", "farmer irrigates the land", "blast furnace ironmaking" and "Xiangfei goes out to bath" are displayed in relief in front of tourists. This is the relief of "ironmaking". The poem says: "the East Bank of the hot spring is full of fire, and the mountain wind blows. The iron smell is fishy. It's only because the red stove has been refined three times that it's very cold."

According to the poetry of ancient poetry, the second phase of hanwenling also added small bridges, streams, pools, and other supporting garden works, such as Baxian cave, Yaojin Pavilion, sumotan, yinlongtan, Xieyu bridge, to complement the first phase of the project.

Xinjiang rock art

Not only that, hanwenling phase II project also has a collection of Xinjiang rock paintings, including eight famous rock paintings in Xinjiang, including Altay, Balikun, Wensu, Toksun, Hutubi, Mulei, kufugou in Qitai County, and Baiyanghe in Tacheng, which are inlaid on the rock walls of hanwenling in the form of relief. Rock painting is the witness of the original culture of the ancient western region people. The beautiful ancient rock painting is an epic of the western region national culture engraved on stones. A rock painting, which seems to have a simple composition, often has rich cultural connotation, which is a complicated cultural expression in ancient times. It is engraved with the early social contents of the people of the ancient western regions, such as their beliefs and totems, their production, life, hunting and war. It expresses a kind of beautiful pursuit and desire of the people of the original western regions, and it is a spiritual sustenance of the people of the original western regions. Among these rock paintings, the reproduction worship of kangjiashimenzi rock carvings in Hutubi is the rarest. These rock carvings have a history of more than 3000 years, with novel ideas and unique contents, which can be described as the best rock paintings.

Main square

Hanwenling phase III project, founded in 2001, is the continuation of hanwenling phase I and II project, and also the key scenic spot of hanwenling overall project. It is about 80 meters long from north to south, 60 meters long from east to west, with a total area of nearly 5000 square meters. Connected with the "Baxian cave", the terrain is high in the East and low in the west, forming four platforms with different elevation differences and different sizes. They are important distribution centers on the riverside sightseeing line. Through relatively dense landscape architecture sketches and other carriers, the historical and cultural level with Shuimogou as the core is expanded to show more vividly and vividly
