Zigong Temple of fire

brief introduction

The temple of fire, also known as Yandi palace, was built in 1842 by salt burning workers in Zigong salt factory. In addition to worshiping God and seeking Buddha, it also plays a role in coordinating disputes among workers and dealing with peer affairs. Its architectural style is a two-story wooden structure, with a gate tower and a stage. The stage is surrounded by a tower on both sides. When performing, men and women should be divided into two seats, half of each. Passing through the patio is the main hall, in which the statues of Emperor Yan, Emperor Shennong, and sage Guan are worshipped. Therefore, the Three Kingdoms opera is also forbidden here, so as to avoid playing Guan Gong and being disrespectful to God. The statues here are also different and particular. The statues elsewhere are mostly made of clay or stone, while the statues here are made of wood. Now the main hall has been destroyed, leaving behind a vegetable field. At the foot of the mountain behind, there are still miscellaneous trees and wild flowers, leaving a rare scene in the city.

nature

The temple of fire in the Yan Emperor's palace is a guild organization of salt burners. They fought with the most powerful group of stove owners in Ziliujing in the reign of Daoguang, the eighth group of shanbang, and safeguarded the vital interests of salt burners. In the past hundred years, there have been many incidents inside and outside the Yan Emperor's palace, most of which were struggles for the interests of the gang. In the early years of the Republic of China, salt workers fought against Zao chamber of Commerce for an increase of 400 Wen per pot; in the Anti Japanese War, salt workers went on strike against strong men in 1939; in 1941, they fought for the severance pay of the demobilized workers and attacked the municipal Party headquarters of the Kuomintang, and salt workers obtained the "severance payment method for all kinds of salt workers" with their lives and blood; in November 1949, representatives of salt workers were in Yanchang The Imperial Palace held a meeting to mobilize salt workers to defend the salt field and welcome the liberation.

Brief introduction of Chuanzhu temple in huilongchang, Zigong

position

Huilong farm is located in Huilong Town, Da'an district. The mountain is surrounded by water, winding, shaped like a dragon. According to historical materials, there are many ancient buildings on the site, including four palaces, one temple and one temple, namely Tianhou palace, Nanhua palace, Yuwang palace, Wanshou Palace, Chuanzhu temple and banbian temple. Among them, Chuanzhu temple is second to none, and can be regarded as the best temple in South Sichuan.

Unique style

A friend accompanying the reporter said: "the Chuanzhu temple was built in the 15th year of Daoguang. It covers an area of two and a half Mu from north to south. In front of the temple is Leida mountain. In spring, it is a natural barrier and a scenic spot for Chuanzhu temple. As soon as I entered the temple area, I saw a high stone ladder in front of me. The stone ladder is still very well preserved, but it is covered with moss. It can be seen that no one has been interested in it for a long time.

Reasonable layout

Because of its long history and poor protection, the Chuanzhu temple in front of us is no longer as magnificent as it used to be, but the momentum of the classical temple is still "charming". Looking up, we can see that the main hall, stage and ear room of Chuanzhu temple are still there. The building is very imposing and the building materials are very exquisite. In particular, the walls around the temple are all made of 1-foot-long and 6-inch-wide green bricks, which are very distinctive. The word "Chuanzhu Temple" printed on the brick surface is still clearly visible. The pillars used in temple buildings are nanmu, the main hall is yellow glazed tiles, the stage is glazed grey glazed tiles, the dripping tiles are "swallow mouth like" patterns, the stage stage design is scientific, the layout is reasonable, the style is unique, the essence of China's ancient architecture is gathered, the national characteristics are displayed, and the labor people have no poverty wisdom and strength.

Magnificent architecture

According to friends, the gate of Chuanzhu Temple faces Leida mountain. There is a gate but no road. It means that it doesn't usually open. Only temple fairs can be opened to carry the Bodhisattva in and out of Sichuan. "There is a thousand year old Jue tree on the right in front of the gate, with big stem and strange shape, symbolizing the prosperity of huilongchang.

"At that time, the appearance of the hall was magnificent. The lotus shaped buds were budding, the top of the palace was golden, and the yellow glazed tiles were shining in the sun. Four long thick irons are pulled down from the top of the treasure and on the left and right eaves. They are as stable as Mount Tai and as firm as gold. The two dragons grab the treasure, and the colored magnets are used to shape the ridges. The gables on both sides are shaped like little hats. The depiction of dragons and phoenixes on the walls, the battle fields of characters and the inscriptions on the walls are extremely wonderful and pleasing to the eye. Looking at the whole building, we can see that the cornices are warped and the craftsmanship is amazing. "

Elegant and holy

In front of the main hall, a friend said: "in the center of the main hall, there is the Bodhisattva, the Lord of Sichuan, with the roaring dog beside him. On the left and right sides are the Supreme Lord Laojun, the Yuanshi Tianzun, and the Tathagata Buddha, the leader of Tongtian sect. The statues are vivid. In front of the hall, there are big bell and big bronze drum. In order to pursue happiness and love life, devout believers and Buddhists come to burn incense, divination, draw lots, ask divination, appeal for peace, wealth and high school. At this time, the monks beat their drums and bells, and the benefactors came in droves. There was no noise. The hall was solemn, elegant and holy. Cigarettes were curling and candles were shining.

To be developed

As time goes by and the landscape changes, the temple of Chuanzhu in front of us is no longer as elegant as it was in those years. The temple is deserted, with few doors and moss on the stone floor. In addition to a few residents living in, some popular, no visitors set foot in. It's quite touching to say goodbye to Chuanzhu temple and recall the temple with ancient charm. If the relevant parties invite investment and repair Chuanzhu temple for tourism, it should be said that it is a rare good scenic spot.
