Hanshan Birthday is a traditional festival of Yulin people in Guangxi. It is a hundred miles away from Hanshan at an altitude of 720 meters. "The mountains are not high, and the fairy is the name; the water is not deep, and the dragon is the spirit." [According to legend, the three brothers of the Zhang family in ancient Changsha, came to Yulin with their parents' filial piety, looking for dragons and catching holes to bury their parents, hoping to shine on the lintel. Found the pinnacle of Hanshan, and the victory of Wuwufeng through the clouds, it was buried there. After the burial, wind and rain, flying sand and stones, the three brothers immediately feathered into the sky, listed as the fairy world, turned into a spiritual flying stone, and fell to the top of the mountain. The people built temples here and worshiped incense, which is the Three Saints of Hanshan. People call the birthday of the three brothers Zhang's birthday, because the birthdays of the three brothers Zhang are different. The birthday of Hanshan is divided into February 12, April 15 and September 15 by the lunar calendar. Among them, February 12 "Hanshan Birthday" is the most]

The Hanshan Temple on the top of the Hanshan Mountain is said to be the place where the Three Saints feathers turned into immortals. Before the Ming Dynasty, some people set up altars here. According to legend, Han Shan manifested his spirit, and the spirit responded to the rain. Every time the local Limin encountered drought, he set up an altar here to pray for rain and carried a flying parade to the stone. The exact record is "In the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, Chen Shengjing, a celebrity in Wutaishan County, advocated the first fundraising to rebuild its altar, and the stone was the temple. It has been hundreds of years! "The stone temple on the top of Guhan Mountain has existed for at least 310 years now. Therefore, the temples built with stone arches on the top of the existing Hanshanling are all made of 1,214 stone arrows, which is the oldest in Yulin and one of the eight monuments of Yulin. The Hanshan Grand Temple in the center of Hanshan Village, according to the ruins of the temples purchased from the temples, speculated that the temple should have been built during the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty and has a history of nearly 200 years. The Hanshan Temple is also the most extensive building in Yulin City with the most construction area in the Qing Dynasty.

Climbing paths that people have built for hundreds of years

The core of the folk activities during the birth of Hanshan Temple for thousands of years is begging for rain. In the farming era, rain praying is the most important folk activity that is most closely related to the lives of the people. According to local literature, Dafan went to the Yushan Prefecture officials to go to the Hanshan to worship, praying for the weather and rain, benefiting the people of Li. There was a lame state official, who was so impressed with the sacrifice of climbing the mountain, he set up an altar in Hanshan Village in the east foot. Later, Hanshan villagers built temples here, called Hanshan Temple. Whenever we ask for rain, all will work. Afterwards, another state official, he was very old and sick, and could not afford to sacrifice. He advocated the construction of Hanshan Temple in the southern smoke gate of the urban area (now in the Yuzhou District Federation of Trade Unions). Various localities have followed suit and become popular, with extremely far-reaching effects. This record of official activities was included in the central government as one of the important local administrative activities as early as the Qing Dynasty. It is not surprising that Hanshan ’s birthday folk activities naturally became the most influential folk activities in Yulin and surrounding areas due to official derivation.

The largest king moth butterfly in the world

How big is the largest king moth butterfly in the world? The world's largest king moth butterfly was discovered by Mr. Jiang Shaofang, a senior agronomist from Yulin Agricultural School in Guangxi. He accidentally discovered a world's largest king moth butterfly in Hanshan Dashandu (also known as Tao Shandu) in Yulin. The largest butterfly found in the world, the Royal Giant Swallowtail Butterfly, is 26 mm larger. Let's take a detailed look at the related content of the world's largest king moth butterfly together with 360 common sense network.

According to legend, Dashandu, or Taoshandu, once lived with a family of Tao surnames. They have been farming here for generations. One year, one night, a big insect (tiger) rushed to this family, and many people were killed and injured. Later, he had to move to Liuxi Village today. There are also some fields and graves as witnesses of history.

As verified by Jiang Shaofang, this moth has a wingspan of 226 millimeters, which is 16 millimeters larger than the "Big silkworm moth family with two wings spreading up to 210 millimeters" recorded in the "Insect Book of Moths" No. 2 of the Insect Atlas of the Chinese Academy of Scientific Animals. ; It is 26 mm larger than the largest royal butterfly in Canada (the wingspan is nearly 200 mm long) found in the world; at the same time, the length of the wingspan of the moth also resides in the entomologists of the Natural Museum of London and the National Collection of the United Kingdom. The world's largest moth (AtlasMoth), as identified in the "Butterfly and Moth" by David Carter, the head of world moth management, has a wing span of 159-300 mm, so the moth is called "best in the world".

Pray for rain culture-Hanshan is the rain festival

In the concept of water worship of the Chinese nation, rain is one of the main objects of water worship. Water is the lifeblood of agriculture. In the ancient Chinese farming society where productivity was relatively backward and mainly depended on the sky, this "sky" or lifeblood mainly refers to rainwater. On the basis of good weather. The excessive dependence of agriculture on water, especially rainwater, has made the Chinese people's adoration for rainwater quite strong, which has spawned many cultural phenomena of rainwater worship, and even many have a strong mystery, including many eccentricities. , Incredible components, and penetrated into people ’s thinking and actions, deeply affecting the various aspects of politics, religion, science and technology, art and customs of traditional Chinese society. Until today, some factors in this mysterious culture still It is deeply accumulated in people's hearts and becomes a unique "collective unconscious".

In the ancient times when productivity was very low, people ’s knowledge and experience were extremely limited, and the ancestors often appeared weak and weak before the natural interface. However, this situation does not affect their desire to develop production and strive for better living conditions. However, because their abilities are far inferior, they had to resort to supernatural sorcery—spells. In the early days of primitive society, the ancestors' worship of rainwater was mainly rainwater itself. After entering the Neolithic Age, China began a long era of farming. Under the concept of "all creatures have spirits" and "gods", the object of ancient Chinese rainwater worship was shifted to the worship of the rainwater god earlier. The gods worshipped by ancient Chinese ancestors when praying for rain include gods of heaven, dragon, rain, wind, cloud, thunder, rainbow, lightning and Guan Gong and Magu.

Tang and Song Liuya Iron Smelting Site-Located in Liuxi Village, Long'an Town, Xingye County

The Guluya Town smelting plant in Long'an Town, Xingye County was built in the late Tang Dynasty. It flourished in the Song Dynasty and declined in the Ming Dynasty. It was one of the two smelting bases in the Southern Song Dynasty at that time. It has spanned more than 1,000 years. After careful research, the site has great historical, artistic, and scientific research value, and was listed as an autonomous cultural relics protection unit in 2000. Since its establishment in 2015, the Yulin Municipal Office of Heritage Management has carried out a lot of application work. At present, it is strictly following the application procedures and plans to integrate the copper smelting site of Han Dynasty in Tongshiling, Beiliu, Song Dynasty kiln site in Beiliuling, Longxing, Longye County The iron-making site in Antang and Song Dynasties was declared as a state-level cultural relics protection unit.

In fact, the formation of the iron smelting site is also caused by the natural environment. The climate in Yulin is humid and hot, with no obvious four seasons. It is heavily affected by monsoons and typhoons. After weathering, the rocks form a deep red weathered crust. On this basis, the soil develops into a brick-red soil, and the original minerals in the soil decompose into iron and aluminum accumulation. , Providing raw materials for the development of the iron and steel industry. After the emperor Qin Shihuang unified Lingnan, the policy of "harmonizing Baiyue" was implemented, and the advanced Central Plains culture entered Yulin, including iron smelting technology. With the development of society, the demand for Tieqi has increased, and the iron smelting industry has started to develop.

Luyachang is an iron smelting factory established in Nanliu County in the Song Dynasty. The nearby Shachanling produces high-quality iron and steel raw material green and yellow mud. The green Liujiang, a tributary of the Nanliu River, runs through it. The center of the factory is now in Yulin City. County Long'an Town Long'anxu, Long'an Village, Liuxi Village, Yangqian Village, etc., including some nearby villages of Shanxin Town, Luoyang Town, Dapingshan Town and Rendong Town of Yuzhou District, with an area of about 120 square meters Kilometers is the most widely distributed iron smelting site found in the country. Among the monuments here, the most worthy of attention is the Lvchang Iron Smelting Site. The site has a large area, with Long'anwei Town as the center and a radius of about 15 square kilometers. The remnants are also scattered in this range, and the slags of thousands of square meters piled up in hills and hundreds of square meters of sintered layer are seen at the entrances of Zhongcun and Liuxicun, and there is a relatively complete iron making furnace, which is hard Incomparably.

Why would such a large-scale ancient smelting base be built in the western foothills of the Hanshan? How to solve the iron smelting raw materials, fuel, logistics, and transportation? Zhang Yu, the director, introduced that after an in-depth investigation and investigation of archaeological experts and historical materials, this can be interpreted as: There are a large amount of red iron ore in Shatuo Ridge 3 km away and the west foot of Shiziling 7 km southeast, which solves the iron smelting raw materials nearby; and the large amount of fuel should be "mirror charcoal"-a kind of hard wood fired Salary. At that time, there were a large number of broad-leaved trees in Hanshan virgin forest. After being cut in situ, it was smoldered in earthen kiln to form charcoal. The two main tributaries of the Nanliu River, the Sanshan River and the Luya River, were supposed to be able to pass large ships. Personnel and products can go south through Panbu along the Nanliu River to the north of Guangdong and Hainan; to the northeast, they can take a section of land on the shore of Maolin, cross the Guimenguan, and then board the ship, along the Beiliu River and the Xijiang River to the Central Plains. Therefore, The ancients set up a smelting site here is the best choice.

Hanshan Culture is actually a condensed history of Yulin culture. It is not only the Three Saints of Hanshan, but also a treasure trove of subtropical animals and plants, the ruins of the green crow metal in Longan, the ruins of ancient Pingqin Prefecture, the maple well of Longdan, Liuxi It is rich in tourism archaeological resources such as the diversion channel of the Great King Monument in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
