Historical evolution

In 1732, the Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty moved Tanxi Limu to Xiajiang. In the next year, he set up a guerrilla camp in Xiajiang with 800 troops. In 1742, Qianlong went down to the river to build a garrison with Earth City, Fort, gate and three steps. The number of campers increased to 2000. In the 36th year of Qianlong reign (1771), Jiang Li Mu was dismissed and Xiajiang hall was set up. In 1913, it was changed into Xiajiang county. In 1941, it was merged with yongcong county to form Congjiang County. The county government was moved to Bingmei town. From the 10th year of Yongzheng to the 30th year of the Republic of China, Xiajiang was the base of guerrilla camp, Limu, department and county, which lasted for more than 200 years. During the battalion, hall and county period, there were yamen, barracks, Town God's Temple, Guan Yu Temple, Wenchang palace, Guanyin hall, Thean Hou Temple, Guangxi guild hall and Yimu library. The public industries such as Yimu Tian and Yi Xue Tian were built with walls of two Li, four points, nine feet and seven feet in length, along the Yangtze River with a length of one hundred and twelve feet and five feet. in those days, merchants gathered, markets flourished, and sailboats on the river (Niangzi boat) went directly to Guangdong and Guangxi. It was an important border trade port in Guizhou. At that time, the first car in Guizhou was split up, passed here by boat, and then went ashore to Sandu. People carried horses and camels to Guiyang. During the war of resistance against Japan, it was an important channel for the empress of Guangdong and Guangdong to spread to Peidu Chongqing. In the autobiographical Memoirs of Qiongyao and other famous scholars, we can still find the figure of the river and the small city in front of us.

The "soup pot" in the fair is a unique scenery. In order to relieve the hunger of the market goers, some vendors bury the pot to make a fire in the fixed position of the market, set the table open, and do the local characteristic food, which is called "soup pot".
