Park history

Chengdu people's Park, formerly known as Shaocheng Park, was built in 1911. The origin of Shaocheng park is directly related to the naming of Old Chengdu City, Chengdu City

Based on the original division of big city and small city, as early as 311 BC when King Hui of Qin Dynasty, Chengdu had big city and small city.

The Republic of China

In 1913, Yin Zhongxi planned the expansion. In order to commemorate the victims of the road protection movement launched by Sichuan patriots on the eve of the 1911 Revolution, Zhang Lan and Yan Kai jointly proposed to build a monument.

From the second year of the Republic of China to the third year of the Republic of China, in order to commemorate the martyrs who died in the road protection movement, Sichuan Han Railway Corporation built a "memorial to the death of protecting roads in the autumn of 1911" (now a national key cultural relic protection unit).

In the third year of the Republic of China, the park was expanded, the Yongji warehouse in the south of the park was demolished, and a canal was dug from Tongshun bridge to lead Jinshui River into the park, which flows eastward around Heming tea house and hehuating (now the island in the middle of the lake) to the banbian bridge. In the 13th year of the Republic of China, Yang Sen took charge of Sichuan Administration and invited Lu Zuofu, a famous industrialist, to Chengdu as director of education department.

From the May 4th movement to the Anti Japanese War, Shaocheng Park was the first choice for speech, performance, gathering and fund-raising of various progressive groups in Chengdu.

In the 27th year of the Republic of China, a commemorative bronze statue of Wang Mingzhang, the Anti Japanese general who died for the country, was built in the east of the park (Huzhong Island) (demolished in 1952).

On September 27, 1928 and July 27, 1929, Shaocheng Park was bombed by Japanese planes. The gold and stone exhibition hall, stadium, zoo, Monument and other places in the park were damaged, killing and injuring thousands of people.

In the 35th year of the Republic of China, Shaocheng Park and Chengdu municipal library were changed into "Zhongzheng Park" and "Zhongzheng library", which provided funds for maintenance and slightly changed the old concept. In 1949, Hu zongnan stationed troops in the park, cutting down trees, demolishing doors and windows, burning books, so that the park suffered another catastrophe.

The People's Republic of China

Chengdu was liberated on December 10, 1949. Shaocheng Park was reborn and renamed "people's Park" the next year. During the ten years from 1950 to 1959, the party and government attached great importance to the construction and development of the park. In the spring of 1951, marshal he long, who was then vice chairman of the political commissar of the southwest army and later director of the National Sports Commission, visited the park and gave important instructions on the construction of the park.

In the summer and autumn of 1952, the municipal government leaders Mi Jianshu and Li Jieren personally reviewed the park planning, and then allocated funds for renovation three times.

In 1965, the first phase of the civil air defense project changed the Jinhe channel into a civil air defense channel, filling the river channel from north to south.

In 1982, the west main road was expanded, and the riverway on the side of the park was changed into a street. So far, the park area has been reduced to 145 mu.

From 2001 to 2003, the park took the lead in demolishing houses in ancestral hall street, Shaocheng Road, Xiaonan street and Junping street in the whole city, and built empty iron flower walls (transparent green). The scenery of the park was directly presented to the public. Xiaonan Street Primary School was included in the park, with an area of 155 mu.
