History and culture

Folk customs

The reason why there are so many centenarians in Quanzhou is closely related to the atmosphere of respecting the elderly and the virtuous. In many towns of Quanzhou, there are still some traditions of respecting the elderly. The annual banquet for the elderly in Yingdu of Nan'an is a typical one.

Yingdu Town, also known as wengshan, is located in the northwest of Nan'an. It has a tradition of respecting the elderly and developing schools since ancient times. On the Double Ninth Festival, Dongshan Zhaohui temple in Yingdu town held a forum for respecting the elderly. Nanyin band was specially invited to perform on the spot, and the old people were invited to celebrate the festival.

Yingdu also has an annual Mid Autumn Festival lunch for the elderly. Every Mid Autumn Festival, hundreds of elderly people from wengshan Hong's East Fourth room gather to share the lunch and wish each other health and longevity. At this time, Hong Weizhong, a centenarian, would hold his beloved Pipa and lean on his stick to perform his unique skills.

According to Mr. Hong Dingming, who was born in Yingdu, the tanyue Mid Autumn Festival banquet held by Hong's dongsifang in wengshan has been held since the Qing Dynasty. As early as in the 17th year of Kangxi, Hong Baoji, a local martial student, presided over the renovation of Shishi temple and Shiquan courtyard. He also advocated the annual Mid Autumn Festival banquets for elders and scholars over 70 years old in Shiquan courtyard, so as to promote the fashion of respecting the elderly and the virtuous. This custom passed down from generation to generation and became an important tradition in the town. It was not until the end of the Republic of China that it was interrupted because of the chaos of war. In 2000, with the advocacy and donations of Hong's family at home and abroad, Yingdu town raised more than 3 million yuan to rebuild Shishi temple, Shiquan temple and tanyue temple, restoring the tradition of holding activities of respecting the elderly and awarding students every Mid Autumn Festival. It is the fourth time since the activity resumed.

Yunconggushi, a famous temple in Southern Fujian, is located at the northern foot of Longshan mountain in Yingdu Town, Nan'an City. It was originally Lushou courtyard, which was founded by Zhixu, a Tang monk after five dynasties. In 1075, it was rebuilt and then abandoned. During the period of Duanping in the Southern Song Dynasty (1234-1236), villagers built Longshan academy here. In the Yuan Dynasty, some Confucian students failed to pass the examination for many times, so they lived here and devoted themselves to learning. When the Longxing Temple on the upper side of the courtyard was abolished, they welcomed the Qingshui patriarch to worship in the Academy. It's night, dream grandmaster said: "it's suitable to cultivate people, it's suitable to make a living." Confucian scholars have no intention of fame, set up a library to teach students. Students have success, respect teachers as "Mr. Yuncong", take the meaning of "the cloud from the dragon, the dragon from the cloud". In Huajian (1465-1487) of the Ming Dynasty, Hongmin Road, the sixth ancestor of Hong's family in the capital of England, set up a museum here. It was the first rural school to merge temples and schools, and was renamed "yunconggu room". During the reign of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty (1736-1795), it was renovated greatly, and then it was renovated continuously. In 1978 and 1990, the main building, such as the main hall and hucuo, was rebuilt successively, and the Buddha statues and facilities inside the hall were shaped. The mountain gate, stone steps, pavilion, waterside pavilion, observation platform and Luohan Pavilion were added. The four characters "cloud conggu room" on the banner of Shanmen archway are written by Zhao Puchu, chairman of China Buddhist Association. Yunconggushi is the birthplace of the humanities in the capital of England. There are many children studying here in the past dynasties. Only in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there are 81 Jinshi and Juren in senior high schools. Yun conggu room is also a Taoist Buddhist temple.
