Historical formation

According to historical records, jingzhongshan "used to have two names, Mingshan in the South and Yinshan in the north." In the early Ming Dynasty, Sanzhong temple was built on the top of the mountain to worship Zhuge Liang, Yue Fei and Wen Tian

Xiang "wants people to look up and stop", so it is renamed "Jingzhong mountain". In the second year of Jiajing reign of Ming Dynasty (1523 AD), Ma Yongzhong, the chief officer of Jizhen Town, repaired the Sanchong temple and built a Bixia palace in the east of the temple. He worshipped the statue of Bixia Yuanjun and the incense became more and more popular. Since then, Qi Jiguang and other officers and soldiers of Ji town often visited the mountain, leaving many famous verses. In 1635, Bixia palace was destroyed by fire. Zhang Tianli, the head of Houshan, and Xing Chun, the abbot, led the public to rebuild the main hall of Bixia palace. Emperor Yizong of Ming Dynasty appropriated money to add a side hall and upper and lower memorial archways. In 1651, the emperor Shizu of the Qing Dynasty came to this mountain. The master of bieshan came out of zhizhidong to welcome him. He called the edict to the imperial edict and Longyan was very happy. In the ninth year of Shunzhi (1652), Xing Zai was invited to the Wanshan Hall of the imperial palace. In the 16th year of Shunzhi (1659), the emperor Shizu "proposed to build a reserve for yuan Jun, and gave him 1000 liang of silver.". In 1660, Emperor Shizu of the Qing Dynasty appropriated another 20000 yuan to rebuild the palace and the ancillary buildings on and under the mountain. Since then, Jingzhong mountain has become famous all over the world. After Emperor Kangxi ascended the throne, he visited Jingzhong mountain for many times, inscribed "preliminary famous mountain", "world famous mountain", "beautiful Lingshan" and other plaques for Jingzhong mountain, and granted a statue of jinniangniang, weighing 16 Jin and 42 Liang, and a hall of Tibetan scriptures. Since then, jingzhongshan ancient buildings have been added and repaired many times, and become more magnificent. By the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, there were nearly 100 buildings in Jingzhong mountain, such as the temple at the foot of the mountain, the four Shuai hall, the first, second and third tea houses, Lingguan hall, Chaoxian gate, Wanghai tower, Nantianmen, Bixia Yuanjun Hall, Sanzhong temple, jade emperor temple, ghost King Temple in Dongshan, and relic pagodas in Xishan. These buildings, connected by 1872 steps, are scattered in the mountains, which is magnificent.

In 1956, the people's Government of Hebei Province listed jingzhongshan as a key cultural relic protection unit at the provincial level, and allocated funds to repair the Bixia Yuanjun hall and its ancillary buildings. Around 1960, the two tea houses on the hillside and the ancient temples on the east side of the peak collapsed due to disrepair. During the "Cultural Revolution", the temple at the top of the mountain, the monk's house, the four Shuai hall at the foot of the mountain and the tea house of toudao were destroyed one after another. In the early morning of July 28, 1976, a great earthquake occurred in Tangshan. Except for the Bixia Yuanjun hall, the ancient buildings on Jingzhong mountain were completely destroyed.
