Lide Longxi Palace

Li Temple faces south, 600 meters long from east to west and 440 meters wide from north to south, with a building area of 250,000 square meters. The architectural style is palace-style, which is not only large in scale, but also higher in specifications than temples. Nine beasts were placed on the roof of the main hall of the Dragon Palace. Under the feudal hierarchy, only ten animals were put in the palace and the Hall of Supreme Harmony. This shows the status of Lijialong Palace. There are large and small 1899 carved dragons on the building of the Dragon Palace, which symbolizes the deep roots of "Eighteen Plums". At the end of the Tang Dynasty, with the social unrest and ethnic blending, Li crossed the river in Longxi on a large scale and spread to all parts of the country. Lijialong Palace was destroyed several times and turned into ruins. Up to now, there are more than 100 mu of rubble buried underground in Fiona Fang, and some places are as thick as 10 meter, which is called "tile slope" by local people. During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, some buildings were repaired and destroyed because of the war. Li Ruxiang, a native of Linyi, Shandong Province, was the magistrate of Longxi County in the next five years, and advocated raising funds to rebuild Lijialong Palace. Due to the decline of the Tang Dynasty, only some buildings of the Dragon Palace, also known as the "Arctic Palace", were restored to the north of the former site of Lijialong Palace. After the addition of Lijialong Palace, there is a first gate (commonly known as Toutianmen) in the north, a second gate and a third gate in the north. Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty was destroyed by a military disaster in five years, leaving only the archway of "the first gate in the north". In the first year of Kangxi's reconstruction, when Lu was appointed as the magistrate of a county in the thirty-seventh year of Kangxi, a vertical plaque of "Yang Migao" was hung on the "First Gate of Beitianmen" during his tenure. Five years of Tongzhi, Longxi City fell, and Lijialong Palace was robbed again. At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, new buildings were built and maintained. Although the scale is far less than before, it is also surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the pavilions are scattered and unique.
