Where is Laozi's hometown?

Laozi's hometown is in today's Yang Guo. Yang Guo used to be called Zhenyuan, Guyang and Guxian.

There was no such statement about Lao Zi's hometown before the 1990s. 1992, National Cultural Heritage Administration approved Guoyang County to accept donations from outside the mainland, and agreed to accept donations from the preparatory committee for the reconstruction of Laozi Taiqing Palace outside the mainland, led by Taiwan compatriot Ma Bingwen, for the maintenance and restoration of ancient buildings such as Laozi's hometown Taiqing Palace in this county. Since 1989, Mr. Ma Bingwen, a famous professor at Taipei Daoism College, has led many people from Hong Kong-funded Tan and Singapore and Malaysia to visit Guoyang County on the spot, and decided to do something for the reconstruction of Laozi's hometown, and actively set up a preparatory committee for the reconstruction of Laozi's Taiqing Palace outside the mainland, and was specifically responsible for overseas fund-raising work. Hou Baoyuan, Dean of Hong Kong Taoist College and director of Hong Kong Songqing Temple, and Tan Zhao (Ji Chun), President of Hong Kong Tan Zhao Charity Foundation, all gave strong support. He discovered nine wells and dug up more than a dozen inscriptions and a large number of Han bricks, porcelain and other cultural relics. In the following years, Ma Bingwen traveled between Yang Guo and Lu Yi. By comparison, it was determined that Yang Guo was more in line with the birthplace of Laozi. "In the end, Lu Yi, eager to get a quick look, could only watch helplessly as 1 10,000 dollars invested in Yang Guo, thus opening the prelude to the dispute for nearly 20 years.

1, Zhenyuan and Lu Yi are two parallel counties, but they are different places. Let's look at the history of the Song Dynasty: "Song Shi Chuan Si Zong Shi Er": "The Yuan Dynasty was physically ill, but fortunately for Zhenyuan, he was ill, so he begged for a retinue. When Lu Yi was seriously ill, Shouyu came back first. When the car leaves, I want four. (Note: Zhao is the seventh son of Emperor Taizong of Song Dynasty, and the emperor is in Zhenyuan. Zhuo Yuan wanted to go, but he only went to Lu Yi and was very ill, so he had to go back first. )?

2. Guyang and Lu Yi are juxtaposed, not the same place. Geography of the Old Tang Dynasty in Lu Yi: Bozhou, Wang Xian and Suiqiao. Lingqiao County, Chengfu County, Guyang County, Qixian County and Zanhua County. Zhenyuan in Hangu County, Guyang in Sui Dynasty, Zhenyuan in the first year of Ganfeng, Yuan Xian in the first year of Zaichu, Zhenyuan in the first year of Shenlong, and Laozi Temple. ?

Zhenyuan and Lu Yi are juxtaposed, not the same place. A Record of the New Tang Dynasty, Volume 28: Lu Yi, I. In the 13th year of the Great Cause, the black society in Tian Min County stole the certificate, which was called Vortex State. Three years later, Wu De returned to the county seat. ? The real source, hope. In the first year of Ganfeng, Benguyang was even more famous. The first year of the first generation is called the fairy source, and the first year of the dragon is called the true source. There is Laozi Temple, which was called Taiqing Palace in Tianbao for two years.

4. 20 15 The legend of Laozi in Yang Guo, Anhui Province is the fourth batch of national intangible cultural heritage list, with Lingbao, but nothing happened in Lu Yi, Henan Province. 202 1, Yang Guo Hu Zhi is the representative inheritor of the fifth batch of national intangible cultural heritage representative project "Legend of Laozi". As a consolation, Lu Yi Laozi Festival 202 1 is the fifth batch of national intangible cultural heritage representative projects. Please note that the key words are only festivals.

5. Ancient poetry cannot be faked. Wen laojunmiao: Purple gas holds half a rock, and lotus peaks and fairy palms blend together. The night in front of the temple is cold, and the setting sun in the sky has far sails. 120 Guanshan supports the jade seat. The geographical features of "whirlpool water in the sun" are consistent with those of Laozi Temple in Yang Guo. There is a river in front of the building, which is also very feng shui. The words in front of the temple also prove everything: Lu Yi built laojunmiao on the south bank of the whirlpool-how terrible it is to have no culture. Professor Chen Qiaoyi, the research authority of China Zhu and the director of the research center of historical geography of Hangzhou University, and Qian Linshu, the research institute of historical geography of Fudan University, have visited Henan and Anhui successively, and they all agree that the channel of the Wohe River is natural and has never changed. Therefore, it is impossible for Laozi's birthplace to be changed from the north bank of the Wohe River to the south bank of the Wohe River.

6. Xue Daoheng's "Ode to the Old Man's Hall": Laixiang Old Lane, the ruins of the Guohe River. Times have changed through the ages. Miao Ling withered and the altar was empty. Jiujing Shengci, double monument gravel. . Jiulong Well is surrounded by meteor gardens, which is the birthplace of Laozi and Waquan Well in the Spring and Autumn Period. The picture below shows the stone tablet of the ancient meteor garden.

7, the country has long been qualitative. 1992, National Cultural Heritage Administration approved Guoyang County to accept donations from outside the mainland, and agreed to accept donations from the preparatory committee for the reconstruction of Laozi Taiqing Palace outside the mainland, led by Taiwan compatriot Ma Bingwen, for the maintenance and restoration of ancient buildings such as Laozi's hometown Taiqing Palace in this county.

8. Ma Bingwen, a famous professor at Taipei Taoist College, led many Hong Kong tycoons Tan and Xinma to visit Guoyang County on the spot, and decided that Laozi was born in the area where Taiqing Palace is located. Only three Lu Yi and eleven Yang Guo are related to Lao Zi. Preliminary information:

A: Luyi County includes:

First, Laojuntai; Second, the West Taiqing Palace (720 mu of Tian Miao); 3. Monument to the Virgin Mary; Confucius asked about the ceremony.

B: Guoyang County (Note: Guoyang County is a newly-built county. A hundred years ago, most of them were drawn from Hao County. )

First, no worries; Second, the Central Taiqing Palace; (The county records indicate that there are 3,000 mu of temple fields and more than 2,000 Taoist priests. Third, the place where the old man made an alchemy. Fourth, Kowloon Well (after the old man was born, Kowloon gushed out of the ground to bathe and spit water for him); 5. Berlin (the cemetery of the Virgin Mary's family); 6. Yin Tomb: 7. Ancient relics recently unearthed: 8. There are still two old Taoist priests dictating the genealogy of hundreds of generations in the Taiqing Palace, saying that it has been handed down since ancient times-the old gentleman was born in Wu Youwei (next to the Taiqing Palace); Nine, East Taiqing Palace; Ten, Confucius asked the ceremony; Eleven, Wujiahe (ancient water).
