Historical details

Jinshawan, a magical land, has a long history and profound cultural heritage. According to legend, Genghis Khan, a generation of heavenly pride, made an expedition to the Western Xia Dynasty in 1226-1227. He passed by the Shanwan at the foot of the table mountain, and saw a magnificent mountain behind the Bay as a barrier. The Yellow River was surging in front of the Bay, and two golden hills were located in the Shanwan, which made the hero marvel. So he decided to set up camp here, order generals, and select a skilled blacksmith named yole daorima to come from the mountain They dug up treasures and took water from the Yellow River to cast weapons and armour for them. The blacksmith made great contributions to Genghis Khan, and Genghis Khan gave this magical land to the blacksmith. And named this mountain wurentushan (meaning craftsman's anvil) that table mountain. The blacksmith had a son named Hai Ruo bulihai. He was as brave, fierce, skillful and powerful as a lion. One day, Genghis Khan led his troops to inspect behind a small mountain bag. They were surprised to find that an eagle was tearing up pieces of meat to feed a little girl. Genghis Khan thought that the eagle was the God of heaven and the eagle that protected human beings. In order to admire the eagle, he drew a picture of the eagle on the small white flag and tied the small white flag to suled flagpole, which was called Chagan sulde. This mountain is named Shenying mountain.

Folk people often take meat to the mountain to offer sacrifices to the eagle, and ask the eagle to protect peace. The little girl that the eagle once fed has grown into a beautiful girl. One day, the girl went to the mountain to ask the eagle to protect the world. All of a sudden, seven wolves surround the girl and happen to be met by Hai Ruo bulihai. Hai Ruo bulihai drives away the wolves. From then on, they fell in love with each other. The blacksmith is not allowed to marry because the girl is Han nationality. Hai Ruo bulihai never married, nor did the girl. Until a hundred years later, two trees grew up in the place where the girl was rescued and Hai Ruo bulihai fought with the wolves. One is Sha Bawang, and the other is Sha Dongqing. The two trees are closely linked, and later generations call them lover tree. In Mongolian, Hai Ruo bulihai is homonymous with Haibowan in Tibetan, commonly known as Haibowan. Shawan is the bay of lions As a result, the bay is golden and resplendent, so it is called Jinshawan.

Jinshawan, as the folk say, is a treasure land of geomantic omen, with the magnificent Table Mountain in the East and the surging Yellow River in the West. It is said that in order to conquer Xiongnu, Emperor Wu of the Han dynasty built a city along the Yellow River in front of the bay. Yue Fei was stationed here in Helan Mountain during his expedition, Yang LIULANG was stationed here during his westward expedition, and Tibetan monks passed through here specially. In 2005, the Yonghe temple in Beijing presided over Jiamu Xiangtu Budan and his disciple zhamusi Ren. Master Chaoge Jile came to Jinshawan in person to chant scriptures for Jinshawan. Xia Xia, member of the Standing Committee of the Chinese people's Political Consultative Conference and deputy director of the ethnic and Religious Committee, wrote a book entitled "Jinshawan". Huang Fengqi, former Secretary of Wuhai municipal Party committee, wrote a poem for Jinshawan.

From a distance, we can see the solemn statue of Genghis Khan riding with a sword, and the majestic image of a generation of proud Mongolian God will appear in front of us.

Genghis Khan was born in 1162 A.D. into a noble family of the Mongol clan on the banks of the Gunan river. When he was born, his father also led the soldiers to defeat the powerful enemy Tatar tribe and captured the enemy commander tie Muzhen. In memory of this great victory, his father gave Tiemuzhen's name to his eldest son. Tiemuzhen spent his childhood and youth in turmoil and suffering. When he established his ambition of unifying the tribes of Mongolia, he organized 40000 cavalry troops and finally unified Mongolia after more than 20 years of military career. In 1206 ad, the nobles of various Mongolian tribes gathered at the Bank of the Gunan River and supported Tiemuzhen as the Mongolian Khan. In order to dominate the country, Genghis Khan personally led 200000 Mongol troops and occupied central and Western Asia from east to west, all the way to Eastern Europe and northern Iran.

In 1227 ad, Genghis Khan died in the palace of Qingshui (now Lingwu County of Ningxia) in Liupan mountain when he attacked Xixia. He was 66 years old.

In 2002, when Zhang Xiang and his son developed Jinshawan, they discovered more than 30 cultural relics of Genghis Khan era in the Bay, which are now in the collection of Wuhai Museum of cultural relics. In memory of this eternal Mongolian hero, this sculpture was built, which is the pride of the Mongolian nation and the pride of the Chinese nation.

On the north side of the statue, in front of the yurt, which can accommodate more than 200 people at the same time, there are two high and upright flagpoles symbolizing sulde (military emblem), each with a bright Trident. On the fork, there is a figure of the sun and the moon, connected with a string in the middle, on which hang five colors of red, yellow, blue, green and white flags. These flags flutter in the breeze, and the design on the flags seems to have a horse take off. The middle of the trigeminal is like an arrow, and the shape of both sides is like a bow, like a bow radiating with an arrow. You stand under the flag, solemn and sacred, always feel a little mysterious. I thought there was something sacred here.

In fact, they are spears, flags, bows and arrows. When Genghis Khan marched to the west, he held this flag high and attacked Xixia with bow, arrow and spear. Later, in order to commemorate the Holy Lord, the people imitated its flag and weapons and put them up in front of their own homes. Every new year, they had to pay homage. This is the symbol of the Mongolian People's symbolic activities, which usually hope to be prosperous, happy and auspicious.
