Jiyuan history and culture

Jiyuan was once the capital of Xia Dynasty, Zhi Dou in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and the capital of Han Dynasty. There has been a history of 1396 since the Sui Dynasty. There are more than 250 large and small cultural relics, including 6 national key cultural relics protection units, 2 Henan cultural relics protection units/kloc-0, and 93 Jiyuan cultural relics protection units.

Among all the cultural relics, ancient wooden buildings account for a large proportion, among which there are about 190 buildings in Song, Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, and many single buildings are second to none in scale, value and structure.

Such as the bedroom of Jidu Temple (during the reign of Song Kaibao), the gate of Dong Fu in Qingyuan (in the Ming Dynasty), the Sanqing Hall of Xianguan (during the reign of Jin Dading), the Chinese Buddha Hall in daming temple (in the first year of Yuan Dynasty), the Rhoda Sanjing Hall of Balcony Palace (in the Ming Dynasty) and the Jade Emperor Pavilion (in the Qing Dynasty). Therefore, Mr. Luo, a famous ancient architecture expert, praised Jiyuan as the "Museum of Ancient Architecture Series in Central Plains".
