Shendu town

Shendu on the Bank of Xin'an River is an important transfer station in Anhui Province on Huangshan Qiandao Lake Golden Tourism line. It is located in the east of Shexian county and is under the jurisdiction of Shexian county. Shendu has always been the throat of water from ancient Huizhou to Zhejiang and an important material distribution center. It was here that Huizhou merchants went down to the south of the Yangtze River to start their business journey. The scenery here is beautiful, the river is open, but the two sides of the Qifeng towering, green mountains and green waters, people linger back and forth. In 979, Yao Zhizhong and his son Zhiyi, a member of the Chengdu government, first settled in Shexian County, where they loved his landscape. In 1159, the Yao family of Huzhou Prefecture moved to Huizhou, which gradually developed into an important town of Huizhou in Ming and Qing Dynasties.

economic development

Shendu is located in the mountainous area of South Anhui Province, with a small area of cultivated land and a large area of woodland. The forest coverage rate of the area reaches more than 80%. Shendu agricultural economy presents a three-dimensional pattern of "high mountain forest, middle mountain fruit, low mountain tea, fish in water". The weak industrial foundation and less employees of Shendu have been the bottleneck restricting its economic development.

As Shendu is the water and land transportation center at the junction of Anhui and Zhejiang, its commerce is relatively developed. It has always been the commercial center in the south of Shexian County, where many guests come and go, bringing prosperity to the local area. With the shrinking of waterway channel, the rise of fast track.

The traffic advantage of Shendu is weakened. Relying on the ecological advantages of Shendu, Shendu began to vigorously develop the tourism industry, opening up the Phoenix Island tourist resort and Xin'anjiang landscape gallery scenic spot. It has laid a solid foundation for making the tourism industry of Shendu bigger and stronger.

Since 2010, Shendu people have focused on the construction of a low-carbon tourism and trade town suitable for living, industry and tourism and the goal of "East China landscape and Leisure Town". They have made concerted efforts to overcome difficulties and forge ahead. Their economic and social undertakings have developed vigorously and achieved fruitful results. They have successively won the honorary titles of the best tourism town in the province, the provincial civilization building advanced town, and the municipal "five good" town Party committee number. As an important tourism town in Shexian County, Shendu town has obvious advantages of "mountain, water and special" resources.

Relying on the beautiful natural scenery, rich fruit tea fish resources and distinctive agricultural industry in Shendu, taking the development of rural economy, tourism economy and urban construction as the starting point, and project construction as the starting point, Shendu grasped the current situation, developed characteristic industries, and did a good job in the industry mode of "one village, one product" to realize the rapid growth of regional economy. In 2012, the total financial revenue of the whole town reached 236 8 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 29.1%; 150.33 million yuan of fixed assets investment, a year-on-year increase of 49.5%; 225 million yuan of investment; 96.272 million yuan of comprehensive tourism income, a year-on-year increase of 10%; per capita net income of farmers reached 9973 yuan, a year-on-year increase of 15.4%.

The origin of place names

Like many ancient villages in southern Anhui, Shendu was formed very early. According to the research of scholars, there were many northern immigrants in the Jin Dynasty and their families moved to Huizhou. It is recorded in Fang Shi, the former collection of Xin'an Mingzu Zhi: "in the new mang period of Han Dynasty, Sima Chang Shi Fang Yi moved from Henan to Dongxiang of she county because Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty. Another previous collection of Wang's records: "in the second year of Jian'an (197) of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wang Wenhe, general of longshe, crossed the river and moved south to avoid chaos. He settled in she and formed a residential village."

There were three large-scale migrations in Huizhou history, and the first volume of local records says: "the three dynasties were the most prosperous when the Jin and Song Dynasties crossed southward and the Tang Dynasty avoided the chaos of Huangchao.". There is the following record under the article 28 of Xin'anjiang in the summary of Fang Yu who read history by Gu Zuyu in Qing Dynasty: "Xin'anjiang is in Funan. There are four sources They are all called Xin'anjiang. According to the annals, yaoshepukou is 40 Li southeast of Shendu and 50 Li southeast of JIEKOU, reaching the boundary of Chun'an County in Zhejiang Province. Yanzhoufucheng is located in the south of dongyangjiang, which is the source of Zhejiang Province. “

Forty five miles south of the town, there is a village called Shendu, which was also established in the Song Dynasty. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, it was set up as a patrol department, which was abolished in the 12th year of Hongwu. According to the organizational system of the Song Dynasty, cities, villages, fortresses, and customs were mainly responsible for border defense affairs. Shendu's geographical position had already been paid attention to by the officials in the Song Dynasty, and Shendu was quite prosperous at that time. "The story of the universe" says, "deep crossing in the east of the county 110 miles, and the boundaries of muzhou, from the Xin'an River on the mountains and steep flow, real hundred city belt." Xin'an River originates from wugujianshan at the junction of Xiuning County in Anhui Province and Jiangxi Province. There are two main tributaries, the South Branch is called Liushui, and the North Branch is called Hengjiang. After deep crossing, the river surface suddenly becomes bright, the waves are bright, the peaks on both sides are towering, the mountains are empty, and the scenery is beautiful. According to the summary of Fang Yu's reading history, it is said that Forty miles southeast of Pukou is also called Shendu. Gai goes upstream from the boundary of Yanzhou. It is surrounded by mountains and mountains. It is as clear and deep as one. Therefore, it is called "Shendu".

Commercial hub

Since ancient times, Shendu has been the water throat from ancient Huizhou to Hangzhou, Shanghai, and even to Fujian. It is also an important material distribution center. Ancient Huizhou is located in the mountains, and its communication with the outside world mainly depends on the Xin'anjiang waterway. The local products of ancient Huizhou continued to flow down the east of Jiangsu to the west of Zhejiang, while the daily necessities and the money earned by businessmen in the area of Jiangsu and Zhejiang continued to go up the river. Xin'anjiang has been the lifeline of ancient Huizhou people.

In the late Ming Dynasty, for the convenience of doing business, the travelling merchants specially compiled the journey books of local scenery and landmarks, mainly focusing on the place names and mileage, and specially recording the names of post stations and gates. In 1626, Hui merchant fan Yizi's Tianxia journey guide called the road from Shexian County to Shendu "the water route from Yanzhou to Hangzhou".

Since ancient times, Huizhou has had many mountains, few fields and barren land. "Huizhou Fu Zhi" contains: "Huizhou Baojie Valley, mountain according to the original foot, barren fields, the production to thin Most of them come in at the age of one year, but they can't afford one. Small people who are skilled or sell food to other counties are often 19. " "Jiangnan Tongzhi" also known as "Huizhou *" has the victory of the salt mountain, the Ru gorge is dangerous, the land is barren, the water is turbulent, and there is little storage. If it doesn't rain, it will dry up easily. If it rains suddenly, the mountain will rise and storm. The lack of basic conditions for the development of agriculture forced Huizhou people to go out to do business for a living, and Shendu was their last trip to Zhejiang.
