Wangjiangmen

Jiangmen, the gate of ten ancient cities in Hangzhou.

Wangjiangmen is the Ancient Southeast gate of Hangzhou. It was built in the 28th year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty. To the east of the gate is the gate of Maoshan hecaoqiao. It was destroyed at the end of the Southern Song Dynasty. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, in the 19th year of Zhizheng period, the city wall was rebuilt and the East City Sanli was expanded. The gate was built here and its name was changed to Yongchang. Because the stool tower could see the river from afar, its name was changed to Wangjiang in the fifth year of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty. In the fields outside the gate of the river, the villagers grow vegetables. Most of the vegetables transported to the city by Wangjiang pass through the gate. Therefore, there is a rumor that "the vegetables outside the gate of Wangjiang pass through the gate". At the beginning of the Republic of China, the city walls and gates were demolished due to road construction. Wangjiangmen, also known as caoqiaomen, "caoqiaomenwaicaidan'er", refers to the vegetable farmers in many vegetable fields outside wangjiangmen. In order to make later generations understand the changes of the city, they set up a monument at the site.

history

Wangjiangmen was also called "xinkaimen" in song and Yuan Dynasties. It was built in Shaoxing period of Emperor Gaozong of Southern Song Dynasty and is one of the East gates of Lin'an. The former site is in the northeast corner of Wangjiang intersection of Jiangcheng road. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Hangzhou was rebuilt, and the new gate moved eastward, which was renamed "Yongchang gate". In the fifth year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, Yongchang was chosen as Li Zicheng's year name, so it was renamed "Wangjiang" because it could be seen from afar by climbing the city tower. In the Southern Song Dynasty, the gate of the city was passed by the Shahe River. There was a grass bridge on it. Wangjiangmen was also called "grass bridge gate" by Hangzhou people. Beside wangjiangmen, there are many places of interest, which is related to the fact that it used to be a good place to watch the tide. For example, "Yingjiang Pavilion", according to Ming records, is located on the riverside outside the gate of Yongchang. It was evolved from the "Yanyun fish and bird Pavilion" in Song Dynasty and the "Guanjiang Pavilion" rebuilt in Yuan Dynasty. Because of the towering story building, and the river bank, even more momentum, at that time there was "shape than southeast belongs to this building" reputation. In the southwest of yingjianglou, there is "Daguanlou", also known as "guanchaolou". It is said that it is the site of Jianglou in Tang Dynasty. Later generations praised it as "facing the sea gate, when the tides rush.". On the right side of the tide building, there is a "Shunji Temple" (commonly known as Haichao Temple), offering sacrifices to the Dragon King, the God of the sea in Zhejiang Province. In wangjiangmen, to the east of wangxianqiao, there is the site of Deshou palace in Southern Song Dynasty. It is here that Lang Ying, a scholar of Ming Dynasty, was born. After the middle of Ming Dynasty, due to the increasing silt on the Bank of wangjiangmenwai and the river flowing far away, the farmers began to reclaim wasteland and grow vegetables, and chose to sell them in the city.

ballad

Cai dan'er outside Wangjiang gate (CAI dan'er outside Caoqiao gate)

Wangjiangmen, commonly known as caoqiaomen, was a suburb in the old days. After the middle of Ming Dynasty, because of the increasing silt on the Bank of wangjiangmen, the fields were covered by the river. The farmers reclaimed the wasteland here to grow vegetables, and then chose to sell them in the city. After the end of the Qing Dynasty, most of the city bricks were demolished by the residents, and many vegetable farmers directly planted vegetables on the city wall. At that time, on the damaged wall, the greenhouses built by vegetable farmers to manage the vegetable garden could be seen everywhere. The folk song "caidan'er outside Caoqiao gate" refers to the vegetable fields and farmers in wangjiangmen.

It is said that "the fish in the lake outside Beiguan gate and the fish in the Qianjiang River outside Caoqiao gate" belong to Wulin gate and wangjiangmen. Wangjiangmen is close to the Qianjiang River, and the area around houchaomen has always been the distribution center of the fishing market, where the fishermen go ashore. On the Bank of the river, there is a lot of talk about carrying baskets to sell, carrying loads to drink and tasting. There are lots of people walking around, such as fish merchants, housewives, kitchens and horses. The story of Qian Tang contains a legend. When Emperor Gaozong of Song Dynasty invited a minister to a banquet, he saw that the jade pendant worn by Zhang Jun, king of Shun, was something that he had fallen into the water in Siming. Xun asked Zhang Jun, and learned that it was bought from the market house, inquired about the back door market house, said that it was from the basket seller, and then inquired about the basket seller. She knew that it was from the cook Chen of houchao, and the cook Chen dissected it from the belly of the yellow croaker. Yellow croaker is yellow croaker. It's a kind of shishouyu. According to the records of the West Lake tour, there are shishouyu in Qiantang River, which "comes from Haize and stretches for several miles, and its sound is like thunder", "fishermen use bamboo to explore the bottom of the water, and when they hear its sound, they go down the net and intercept it. There is a net for thousands of fish." Qu Zongji, a poet of the Ming Dynasty who has lived on the Qiantang River for a long time, wrote a poem about bamboo branches: "the grass sprouts, shoots and thorns bloom, and the stone heads of puffer fish do not come. When you get up in the morning, the fishy wind fills the city, and Lang sells fresh food from Haikou. " We can see the prosperity of Qianjiang fishing market.
