Quanzhou Yongning Wei | A seaside Minnan original ecological ancient city worth visiting~

Yongning Wei, also known as Yongning Ancient City, is actually a small seaside town. Due to its unique location, it once bore the responsibility of resisting pirates. Now, it has become a tourist attraction, but it is quite niche with few visitors. Residents in the ancient city live their days peacefully, with the Southeast's foremost Wealth God Temple, as well as an extremely large and exquisitely beautiful City God Temple. There are also ancestral halls and Mazu temples, and even homestays. As the year-end approaches, restaurants and coffee shops are all closed, so there is no place to dine, and one can only take a quick tour before leaving. 🌟 Highlights: Very original, without a commercial vibe, and no admission fee! 🚉 Travel Tips: An hour's drive from downtown Quanzhou 🗓 Itinerary: Luojia Temple - Shili Golden Coast - Yongning Wei, all are close by

Yongning Ancient Town in Yanqing | The ancient murals of Sanyi Temple on Heping Street

Now, Sanyi Temple is easy to find, completely 'exposed' on the street corner. Heping Street Sanyi Temple was originally built during the Ming dynasty and rebuilt in the Qing dynasty, but has become dilapidated over the years. The main hall of the temple has three rooms, facing east with the back to the west. The temple's roof is covered with yellow and green glazed tiles, indicating a high status. It is currently the only ancient building with a colored glazed tile roof in Yanqing District. There used to be a well in front of Sanyi Temple, but it was later sealed (where the tap is now). On the east and west sides of the gable walls on both sides, there are brick carvings, finely crafted, with patterns of the Eight Immortals, said to be relics of the temple. Sanyi Temple mainly worships the three sworn brothers known for their loyalty and righteousness from the Peach Garden: Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei. On the north and south gable walls, there are still murals related to the Three Kingdoms theme. It is said that each wall is painted with three rows of murals, eight murals per row, each mural depicting a story, with the name of the story written on it, totaling 48 stories on both walls. The murals on the north side (right side) gable wall are still relatively intact; the murals on the south side (left side) gable wall are severely damaged. The era to which the murals belong has not yet been identified, but based on the color and style, they may belong to the Ming dynasty murals.

A Fortress in Yanqing | Yongning Ancient City

Yongning Ancient City, whose establishment began in the Tang Dynasty, was set up as Yongning County under Tuan Mountain in the twelfth year of the Yongle era of the Ming Dynasty (1414 AD), taking its name from the phrase 'its peace is everlasting' in the 'Book of Documents'. Surrounded by mountains on three sides, the Gui River meanders past, and in ancient times, it was known as 'the fence of the nation'. The old Yongning City was a standard fortress, a military stronghold in the Great Wall defense system. There was a city gate on each of the four sides, north, south, east, and west, and each gate was equipped with a barbican. The east gate was called 'Yinghui Gate', the west gate 'Zhenning Gate', the south gate 'Xuanen Gate', and the north gate 'Weiyuan Gate'. The north-south central axis intersected with the east-west central axis at the current roundabout location - the Jade Emperor Pavilion. The city we see now has been extensively remodeled later on, even if the city walls have not been rebuilt, nor new city gates constructed.

Yongning Ancient City With the revolution of tools and technology, silverware products can be produced on a machine scale, but this has also made the traditional silver jewelry craftsmanship less and less. A trip, accidentally found this old man in an ancient city in Yanqing, Beijing, the years left a myriad of gullies on his face, but did not take away his slightest spirit. Father is meticulous in the whole process, with a cautious and serious eye in his eyes. The hammer keeps hitting his hands and hands, but he doesn't touch his fingers. The work of the year makes the hands of the father extremely rough. For the control of the fire, the old man can be said to have achieved the best of fire. The silver bar burns red under the hot tongue of the high temperature, and then puts it into the acid solution and then reshapes its appearance. The hand-made process is complicated, the whole production process is boring, and the production time is quite long. A hand-made silver jewelry such as a silver crown, a silver lock or a carved flower often takes more than half a month or more. Father has done silver jewelry for a lifetime, but now it is very difficult to support himself by making silver ornaments. Often, the money it enters will be of a better quality. For people here, things cant be sold very expensive. Silverware, which takes a lot of time to make, often doesnt make much money, and making a living has become a problem. If you have the opportunity to come here, you can go and hold the old mans field.
