Development history

The scale development of Hongfeng Lake area has a history of more than 600 years. As early as the 23rd year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1390), more than ten thousand Ming soldiers who fought in Yunnan Hui division were stationed in the middle reaches of Maotiaohe River under the command of Jiao Qin, a general of Ming Wei. They established Wei Qing Wei and carried out military garrison.

Today, the first, eighth, second, seventh, fifth, sixth, liuguanbao, chenliangbao, longjingbao and other places in Hongfenghu town are the former garrison sites. The garrison troops "garrison in three parts and garrison in seven parts" opened the prelude of agricultural development in this hot land. After that, through the hard work of successive generations of farmers, this piece of desert virgin land was built into the "granary" of Qingzhen.

In 1958, Hongfeng Lake was built. The 18000 residents of nearly 100 villages in the flooded area of Hongfeng Lake gave up more than 70000 mu of fertile land and woodland, and more than 10000 houses. They moved to other places or moved to higher places to start a new business. What a magnificent and admirable move this is. For decades, under the support of the state and the leadership of the local Party committee and government, they have lived in harmony with the residents who have not been relocated, United and helped each other, developed production and built their homes. After a period of poverty, they have lived and worked in peace and contentment with Hongfeng Lake and lived a well-off life.

In December 1991, Qingzhen city implemented the construction of towns and the withdrawal of townships, and built dongmenqiao Buyi Township, Zhongba Miao Township, BOLUO Township, Daxing Township and Chengguan town directly under the county government into Hongfenghu town. In June 2003, the urban area, dongmenqiao district and Daxing District with better social and economic conditions were set up, and a new Qinglong sub district office was established. Although the scale of Hongfenghu town has been reduced and its comprehensive strength has been weakened, its economy is still growing continuously, healthily and steadily. In 2006, the GDP reached 490 million yuan, of which the proportion of primary, secondary and tertiary industries was 14:57:29. The total fiscal revenue was 5.3277 million yuan, the local fiscal revenue was 3.062 million yuan, and the per capita net income of farmers increased by 140 yuan to 3145 yuan.

Main attractions

South Lake

Nanhu has the largest area and the most scenic spots. Nanhu is famous for its many caves. The first thing that catches our eyes is a group of rocks and rocks of extraordinary purpose. This is a small and natural "bonsai mountain". The stones here are rich in color. The blue gray and brown shale plunges into the clear water.

Nanhu is famous for its caves. The general hole, the fish hole, the underwater hole and the big mouth are the same. The secluded valley caves are very strange. In particular, the general cave, when the water rises, forms a unique "Lake in the cave". The stalactite pillars in the cave are colorful. At the end of the cave, there is a large shimmering stone curtain more than 10 meters high and more than 20 meters wide, just like a giant waterfall falling down from the cliff, which is very spectacular; there is a lake in the cave, the water quality is clear, and the boat journey is 1400 meters. You can enjoy various kinds of stalactites while listening to the magical ancient legends. There is a connection between the North Lake and the South Lake. The lake is narrow, with steep cliffs on both sides, steep mountains and beautiful scenery; the pines and cypresses on the mountains are vigorous and straight. On the top of the mountain, a stone looks like a fairy, and a stone with a smile looks like a arhat. There are many branches in Houhu Bay. It looks like the end of the mountain and the end of the river, but suddenly the flowers are shining, the bow of the boat turns, and the landscape is picturesque. You can have a panoramic view of the nearby villages, the returning fishing boats, the lovers holding hands, and the dancing Miao girls.

The lake is becoming narrower and narrower. The rocky banks on both sides are like chopping swords, which some visitors call "the small Three Gorges". This landscape is full of stone peaks, which add a little masculinity to the beautiful lake water. People call it "the small stone forest". The rocks here have a unique style. They can't form a ridge horizontally or a peak laterally. They pile up one after another, and they have a lot of beauty For example, the vast number of ancient books, people call it "cliff book".

Fish hole

Across the lake from Jiangjun cave is the Dayu cave, which is a cascade karst cave. The cave is divided into seven layers, one floor and one scene. At the bottom of the cave is the Yinhe river. The karst inside the cave is very spectacular. The stalactites with various shapes are dazzling. Some are resplendent, some are as white as jade, just like an underground palace with jewels.

There is a Miao village on the hillside where dayudong is located. More than ten families in the village are all Miao. The Miao women here wear Tibetan blue double breasted top and pleated skirt, with cross stitch patterns on the collar, sleeve, back and skirt, which is very elegant; on the top of zhoumen, they wear black-and-white beads and pen pointed hair ornaments, plus silver earrings and silver collars, which have strong national characteristics.

Ancient battlefield sites

There are many Han tribes in the lake bay, crisscrossing. Along the coast, you can see not only the pastoral style, but also a number of ancient battlefield sites. Just listen to the names of these sites, you can know that this area is a must for ancient military strategists: ludishao, xiaoguanbao, Yingpan, Shicheng. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there were wars between the Ming Dynasty and the Allied forces of various ethnic groups in Shuixi, wars between Wu Sangui's separatist forces and the Qing army and local powerful forces in the early Qing Dynasty, and wars between the local people of all ethnic groups against the Qing Dynasty. Among them, ludishao ancient city site is the most representative. Ludishao, an ancient city, was built in 1872. Crystal Pavilion and Puxing temple were built in the city. Wu Zhong, a Guizhou poet in Ming Dynasty, lived in seclusion in ludishao.

This Ludi city was the base of the people's uprising against the Qing Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty sent the so-called "iron footed" governor Zhao Deguang to lead the army to attack. It was a fierce fight between life and death. The uprising people suffered heavy casualties, but they would rather die than surrender and fought bravely. Finally, they shot Zhao Deguang, the Qing general with a lot of blood and debt, under Ludi city. Although Ludi city was razed to the ground in the later war, the bloody massacre and the earth shaking resistance still remain in the hearts of future generations. You may as well use your imagination to imagine the scene of the uprising of various nationalities in Ludi city more than 130 years ago, fighting with the Qing army between the peaks and valleys.
