Today's Discovery at the Ancient County Office of Fuliang

Li Bai's poem 'The Song of the Pipa Player' is often heard in Jingdezhen. The place mentioned in the poem, Fuliang, gradually unfolds before our eyes in the reality of time, a thousand years later. Among them, the Ancient County Office of Fuliang is the highlight of a one-day tour in Fuliang. The Ancient County Office of Fuliang is located in the northeast of Jiangxi Province, a AAAA-level scenic spot, covering an area of 3.35 square kilometers. The entire scenic area centers around the 'Fuliang County Office' and the 'Red Tower', encapsulating the long-standing human history and splendid tea and porcelain culture of the ancient county office. The Fuliang County Office is the only well-preserved county-level office from the feudal era in southern China, hence it is known as the 'First County Office in Southern China'. In ancient times, Fuliang County governed the porcelain capital Jingdezhen, producing porcelain and tea, with abundant tributes, making it a superior county. The county magistrate held a fifth-rank official position, higher than the usual seventh-rank county officials, thus the architectural regulations of its county office were higher, earning it the title of 'China's First County Office'. According to the distribution map of the Fuliang County Office in the Qing Daoguang 'Fuliang County Annals', the county office faces south with its main buildings on the east, middle, and west axes, arranged in three rows from south to north. The central axis includes the screen wall, the first gate, the ceremonial gate, the county courtyard, the six rooms (official room, household room, ritual room, military room, labor room, criminal room), the main hall, the second hall, the third hall, the flower hall, and the back garden. The existing Fuliang County Office consists of six groups of ancient buildings on the central axis after restoration. 🔆Scenic Highlights The scenic area mainly features the Historical and Cultural Corridor, the Gothenburg Sculpture, the Millennium Porcelain Altar, the Ancient City Gate Tower, the Jingyi Zhai Museum, the Millennium Strange Osmanthus, the Millennium Red Tower, and the Fifth-Rank Ancient County Office. The main attraction is the physical building of the ancient county office in the deepest part. 💥Tour Time The scenic area is very large, especially the main buildings of the ancient county office, which have three main lines. It takes at least an hour to rush through, but a more relaxed visit would take about two hours. 🎗️Itinerary ✔️From the entrance of the scenic area, walk for about 15 minutes through the Historical and Cultural Corridor and the commercial street to reach the ancient city wall. The Cultural Corridor showcases 1600 years of Fuliang's history in text and pictures, forming a long path on the ground, worth seeing. ✔️Continue forward, and the Millennium Red Tower at the third archway is not to be missed. ✔️After passing the last archway, you will arrive at the Fifth-Rank Ancient County Office of Fuliang. Inside the entrance, on both sides of the large lawn in front of the ceremonial gate, are the six rooms (official, household, ritual, military, labor, criminal) and the tax room. ✔️Passing through the 'Mirror High Suspended' third hall for public trials, the innermost part is the back garden and the Xiangshan Villa. ✔️In addition to the main buildings on the central axis, important check-in points on the west axis include the Inspector's Hall, the Clerk's Hall, the Chief Clerk's Hall, and the prison. Important check-in points on the east axis include the Ever-Normal Granary, the County Deputy's Office, the Fuliang Inspection Office, and the Three Classes Office, among others.

Fuliang County Yamen

Fuliang County Yamen is located in Jiucun Village, Fuliang County, Jingdezhen City, Jiangxi Province. It was originally built in the 11th year of the Yuanhe period of the Tang Dynasty (816 AD) and was rebuilt during the Daoguang era of the Qing Dynasty (1821 AD). Upon arriving here, the verses from the Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi's "Pipa Xing" involuntarily come to mind: "Merchants love profits and despise parting, last month went to Fuliang to buy tea. Now back at the river mouth guarding an empty boat, the moon shines bright around the boat, the river water cold." Fuliang, during the mid-Tang period, already had a considerable scale of tea production and was an important tea distribution center in the south of the Yangtze River. Since Fuliang County governed the porcelain capital Jingdezhen in ancient times, producing both porcelain and tea, it contributed more tributes and was considered a superior county. The magistrate was ranked higher than the common seventh-rank county officials, holding a fifth-rank position, hence the county yamen's architectural regulations were also higher than those of ordinary yamen, earning it the reputation of "China's Number One Yamen". Fuliang County Yamen is the only completely preserved feudal-era county-level government office in southern China, thus it is known as "The Number One Yamen of the South". Fuliang County Yamen was listed as a national key cultural relics protection unit by the State Council in October 2019. Ticket price: Adult ticket 40 RMB/person Opening hours: 8:00-18:00 Recommended visiting time: 1-2 hours Transportation: Take bus 603 to Fuliang Ancient County Yamen station in Fuliang County town, walk 120 meters, or take bus 39 to Fuliang Ancient County Yamen station, walk 90 meters to arrive. There are no restaurants near Fuliang County Yamen, it is recommended to dine in the county town.

Jingdezhen Trip - The Ancient Fuliang County Yamen

Departing from the Jingdezhen Ceramic Factory, it's already 4:45 PM! The Ancient Fuliang County Yamen sign indicates that no more visitors will be accepted after 5:30 PM, so we hurriedly head towards our destination, racing against time. A blessing in disguise! Unexpectedly, because we arrived late, we could drive into the ancient city of Fuliang! It's really a privilege to enjoy such perks even during the peak season, truly happy indeed! Driving and sightseeing along the way, although the museums and such were closed, it didn't affect our good mood. Eventually, we drove under the ancient osmanthus tree at the old county yamen, which was also closed! No worries, we peered through the cracks of the gates of the yamen, and the overall layout was the same as the other yamen we've seen before, almost identical to the ancient Kaifeng County Yamen! The overall experience was okay, not many people around, and it was pleasant to enjoy the breeze in the open space!

The fifth-rank magistrate of Fuliang County is surprisingly higher than the prefectural level!

The ancient county yamen of Fuliang in Jingdezhen is the most well-preserved feudal county-level yamen in southern China, known as "China's Number One Yamen" and "The First Yamen of Jiangnan". Fuliang County has always held an extraordinary position, although it is a county, all the magistrates of Fuliang have been fifth-rank officials, which is equivalent to the level of a prefect, and even higher than some prefects of the same rank. Fuliang played an important role in various eras with its economic pattern of mutual benefit between porcelain and tea, and the combination of agriculture, industry, and commerce, being appointed as a fifth-rank county yamen multiple times. In the first year of the Tianbao era of the Tang Dynasty, Xinchang was renamed Fuliang, designated as a Shangyi (fifth-rank official position); inside the county yamen, there is a stele from the 33rd year of Qianlong's reign stating "Specially ordered the main hall of Fuliang to be promoted by five ranks"; the Mingjian Beitandanfang's decree states "Conferred the title of Tongzhi, awarded the right to wear the flower plume and manage the affairs of Fuliang, built by Mao Gong" — bestowing the fifth rank, making it the highest-ranked county yamen in China. The majestic Song Dynasty Red Pagoda, known as "Jiangxi's Number One Pagoda", was listed as a provincial key cultural relic protection unit in 1959. The pagoda has seven stories, with a height of 37.8 meters from the ground to the top of the complex eaves. The body of the pagoda is built with large green bricks, and each level features an overhanging platform constructed with green bricks, without any railings. Location: Old City Village, Fuliang Town, Fuliang County, Jingdezhen City.
