Qi's memorial archway

Qi's memorial archway

There are two Qi's memorial archways, about 100 meters to the south of Qi Jiguang ancestral hall, at the East and West ends of the inner street of the memorial archway, the filial piety archway for mother and son's day in the East and the governor archway for father and son in the West. In 1565, the imperial court was established to honor the Qi family. The distance between the two workshops is 143 meters. Both of them are four pillars, three rooms, five floors, cloud eaves and multi ridge granite stone carving workshops, with a height of 9.5 meters, a width of 8.3 meters and a depth of 2.7 meters. The upper and lower parts of the main room are carved with patterns such as "danfengchaoyang", "erlongxizhu", "lion rolling Hydrangea", "fish and dragon changing", "Qilin and phoenix", and the two sides are carved with patterns such as flowers, trees, birds and animals. The two archways are towering, tall and straight, majestic, well-designed and exquisitely carved. They have high historical value and artistic value. They are rare large-scale stone carvings of Ming Dynasty in China.

Basic introduction

In the middle part of the "mother and son's Day filial piety" square, there are letters "honoring the wife of the right governor Qi Ning, wife Yipin of tejin Ronglu doctor", "honoring the wife of Yipin of tejin Ronglu doctor", "commanding the former governor of Shandong Beiwo Qi Jingtong", "guarding the commander-in-chief of Zhejiang Fujiang Guanggui, knowing the former governor of Beiwo Qi Jiguang". The two archways are towering, tall and straight, majestic, well-designed and exquisitely carved. They have high historical value and artistic value. They are rare large-scale stone carvings of Ming Dynasty in China.

There is Qi Jiguang's weapons Museum on Paifang street. It is Qi Jiguang's invention and improvement of many weapons in the long-term anti aggression war. It displays Qi Jiguang's invention and improvement of ancient weapons, such as wolf, boring palladium, wanggangche, bird gun, tiger squatting gun, invincible general gun, rocket and so on. Qi Jiajun is the first army to use rockets in the world. There is a rocket vehicle for rocket launching in the square exhibition of the ordnance Museum. The rocket car has four wheels. The rocket loaded in the car can be launched separately or partially or together, which is very similar to the modern Katyusha rocket.

The pole looking chariot in the center of the square of the ordnance museum is very eye-catching. This kind of four wheeled chariot has a wooden pole standing high on it, and a hanging bucket is set on the top of the pole to observe the enemy's situation from a high position. At that time, it was already a long-range view.
