brief introduction

Gongbei of Jiucaiping was first built in 1863. In 1920, it was destroyed by the Haiyuan earthquake. After restoration, the buildings in the "Cultural Revolution" were completely destroyed. After many years of restoration in 1980, it was basically restored to its original appearance. The existing buildings are decorated with water mill brick carvings, which reproduce the architectural style of that year.

history

In the 15th year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty (around 1890), in order to ease the ethnic conflicts, the Qing government sent the second to the first class of Imperial Envoys to Gongbei to comfort the resistance, and also gave Yang Baoyuan 12 inscriptions. During the period of the Republic of China (around 1935), Bai Chongxi, Ma Hongbin, Ma Bufang, Ma Hongkui and Ma Yuanting, senior generals of the Kuomintang and famous Hui people, presented plaques to Gongbei of Jiucaiping and wrote articles. In the early days of liberation, Chairman Mao and commander-in-chief Zhu sent people to present a soft plaque with the inscription "long live the great unity of all nationalities", which was lost during the cultural revolution. Gongbei was rebuilt from 1985 to 1995 under the leadership of Li Degui.
