475-221 BC is the Warring States period in the history of our country, which is the transitional period from slavery society to feudal society. When the whole society is full of contradictions and wars, the situation of Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei and Qin competing for hegemony is formed. The "Warring States Customs" is the incongruity of the seven heroes in politics, military, agriculture, commerce, culture and folk custom With its characteristics, the essence is constructed, so that tourists can enjoy both historical knowledge and entertainment while enjoying. It's really "caressing the past for a moment, taking over the seven heroes at present.". The plaque of "Warring States style" was written by general Zhang Aiping.

In 221 B.C., after the first emperor of Qin unified China, he made five tours successively. In 215 B.C., he made the third East tour to Jieshi. He sent Lu Sheng, a Yan man, to beg for the oath of Xianmen and ordered Li Si, the Minister of Yan, to engrave "jieshimen Ci", that is, the drinking stone carving standing on the seashore. The re engraved manuscript stone is a natural granite stone, about 5.1 meters high, 2.9 meters wide and 2 meters thick. The first emperor loved touring all his life. In the ten years after he ruled the whole country, he had toured five times "personally touring the world and touring the distant places". Every time the first emperor of Qin went on a tour, he had a grand chariot battle and a huge motorcade. The scene is very spectacular. Now we can see this group of group sculptures, which are composed of 32 people, 20 horses and 2 cars, with vivid and vivid images of the first emperor, chariots and horses, and figures With a length of 40 meters, a width of 5 meters and a height of 6.6 meters, the sculpture is another landmark building in the scenic area after the giant statue of Qin Shihuang.

In the Qin and Han Dynasties, que gate was built in front of city gate, palace or temple. It is said that the gate of the que is "the place where the emperor gives orders, rewards and punishments", that is, the place where decrees and notices are hung to show the people of the country. The width in front of the ancestral temple and the living room is "decorated and distinguished". That is to say, the que is a sign indicating the scope of the palace, the living room, the shrine and the tomb. People and officials must be respectful here.

The gate where the emperor of Qin sought immortality to enter the sea imitates the gate form of Qin and Han Dynasties. It has four eaves and three gates. The gate tower is a double eaves archway, with two main gates in the middle, two auxiliary gates on the left and right, two side gates, and two high walls on both sides. The upper beam square of the side gate is carved with four relief sculptures: Qinglong, Baihu, Zhuque and Xuanwu. The horizontal plaque of the main gate is written by Mr. Zhao Puchu Where the immortals enter the sea. In front of the gate, this pair of beasts is called "Tianlu". According to legend, Tianlu is a kind of animal with long horns on its head, ribs and wings, which can fly. It is a symbol of good luck.

Immortal temple is divided into Mountain Gate, main hall and East and west side hall. In the main hall and the auxiliary hall, there are respectively the Eastern Prince, the Western Queen Mother, the God of fortune, the God of fortune, the God of wealth, the God of longevity, and the alchemists Lu Sheng, Xu Fu, Han Zhong, Hou Gong and Shi Sheng who are seeking immortality. Because there are immortals and people in the temple, they are collectively called "immortal Temple". After the unification of the six states, Qin Shihuang called himself the first emperor, hoping that II and III would He wanted to rule China forever, so he sent many alchemists across the sea to seek the elixir of immortality. Some of these alchemists went to Japan, South Korea, and some of them were missing. Immortal temple is built for these alchemists to commemorate their great contributions to the economy and culture of China, Japan and South Korea.
