Four official hall

Four official hall

Siguan hall is the general name of the area from siguangdou to Minquan intersection of Yanjiang Avenue in Hankou. Si Guan Dian was originally a temple for worshiping heaven, earth, water and fire. It was built in the early Qing Dynasty. The surrounding area is densely populated, and most of the people live in thatched cottages. It is easy to cause fire, and the residents are afraid. They beg for the spirit of "huoguan" in the four palaces and pray for the "God of fire" to bless peace. Therefore, the four official hall is also called the temple of fire. But the God of fire did not work, and even his own temple could not be protected. In 1687, a fire broke out and burned to ashes. Since then, there has been no Siguan hall, but this area is still called Siguan hall.

It was rebuilt in the 26th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty. It was named after the worship of Bai Qi, Wang Jian, Lian Po and Li Mu of the Warring States period. It is composed of the main hall and the bell tower. The stone path runs through the inner side of the lower hanging foot of the main hall. It looks like a arcade. The cornice is tilted and flying in the air. You can have a panoramic view of the two cities of Fu and Wei and the surrounding mountains.

Another four official hall is located at the top of jiuqugang cliff of Shiping mountain in the north of Fucheng city. The only path passes through the bottom of the hall, and through a watchtower style brick arch, you can reach the top of Shiping mountain. The East, West and South gates of Zhenyuan city are water head, while Beijin pass in front of Siguan hall is the only land pass. According to folklore, people with ulterior motives must pass the "pass" of the four officials before entering Zhenyuan city. Therefore, the four official hall is regarded as the patron saint of Zhenyuan.
