"If you ask about the rise and fall of ancient and modern times, please only look at Luoyang City." The Luoyang City described by Sima Guang, a writer in the Song Dynasty, is the ancient city of the Han and Wei Dynasties today. City ruins. In 25 AD, Emperor Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu, the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, made his capital here. After that, more than 40 emperors from 6 dynasties including Cao Wei, Western Jin and Northern Wei during the Three Kingdoms period used this as their capital, because the two main ones were the Eastern Han and Northern Wei. Therefore, it is called "the ancient city of Luoyang in the Han and Wei Dynasties". The Gucheng is the most well-preserved and large-scale capital site in China. The ancient city of the Han and Wei Dynasties was the eastern starting point of the "Silk Road". In 166 AD, the king of the Roman Empire sent an envoy to Luoyang, the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty, to meet Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty, marking the beginning of direct communication between the eastern and western ends of the Silk Road. Today, the ancient city of the Han and Wei Dynasties that tourists see is already a piece of ruins. But if you're a history buff, some of the surviving ruins won't disappoint. Among the existing ruins, visitors can see three remaining sections of the city wall on the east, west and north sides, each side is about 3000-4000 meters long, and the inner city wall on the south has been flooded by the Luo River. Here you can take a close look at the ruins of the city walls. These city walls are made of rammed earth panels. The remaining city walls are generally 1-2 meters above the ground, and the north wall is 5-7 meters higher than the city wall. In the southern suburbs of the inner city, you can see the ruins of the "Tai Xue" in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The Tai Xue in the Eastern Han Dynasty was built in the fifth year of Emperor Guangwu's reign in the Eastern Han Dynasty (29 AD), and there were more than 30,000 Tai Xue students in the school. people. The Taixue site is divided into two parts: east and west. There are large-scale rammed earth building sites inside the site, and rows of building foundations can also be seen. Taixue is an ancient school that taught Confucianism. Also in the southern suburbs of the inner city, you can also see the ruins of "Lingtai" in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Lingtai was founded in the first year of the Zhongyuan reign of Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD 56) and was the national astronomical observatory at that time. It was used successively in the Cao Wei and Western Jin Dynasties. You can also see a square rammed earth platform, about 31 meters from east to west, 41 meters from north to south, and about 8 meters high. Zhang Heng (78-139 AD), an outstanding scientist in the Eastern Han Dynasty, once studied astronomical phenomena here for many years. In addition, among the ruins of the Han and Wei ancient cities, tourists can also see the Jinyong City ruins in the northwest corner of the inner city, which were built in the Ming Dynasty of Cao Wei (AD 204-239). pool etc. In 2006, the main gate of the palace city of the Han and Wei Dynasties, Changhe Gate, was repaired. Visitors can experience the glory and prosperity of this place through the restoration of the original site, such as the gate base and the tower.
After coming out of the Baima Temple, I found that there is a treasure ancient site not far away, so I didn’t hesitate to find it. It’s more difficult to find the site and the site park of the ancient city of Hanwei and Hanwei. There are many large sites in the site park, but the navigation is not possible. Fortunately, the way is relatively clear. Walk along the direction of the sign and enter a well-built township road in a few minutes to the ruins park. The security guard is very good for you to park the car. There is no one in the entire ruins park. Our family of three, Luoyang after more than four o'clock in the afternoon is not so hot. Just take the children to the vast field archaeology! The introduction inside is very detailed, completely restores the Luoyang Palace City of Han and Wei, making you seem to be back more than a thousand years ago! Come to Luoyang Ancient Capital to see more real sites ~, so this treasure ancient site is great value
At present, the weather is right, neither cold nor hot, a person walking in the vast silent wilderness, thinking about Cao Wei to Jin here is the prosperous place of the world, so many historical events here, how many open fights occurred at the foot of their feet, iron horse Jinge, sorrow and joy. To be able to touch the traces of history is a valuable experience.
A holy place for history buffs, watching the ruins come to mind for centuries of prosperity and decay. The museum is already under construction, hoping that the land and the stories that belong to it will return to the public's perspective.
History lovers are definitely going. After visiting the White Horse Temple, take the 87 bus across the road (every half an hour, please wait patiently) to the Jincun intersection. (How many good bronzes from Jincun, look at the name is very excited) has been fenced in the barbed wire, gall fat own idea to climb in to see. Built in the third century AD, the ancient capital of Han and Wei, there are currently city walls, ramps, drainage ditches, towers, and stone foundations of palace pillars to see. I am very excited to step on this land, the ancient city of 1800 years ago. . There is a construction room on the north side. It is said that there are evil dogs. I dare not go to see it. The south of the Anmen was cut off by the national road and railway line (a few hundred meters from the railway bridge culvert, the Yongning Temple written in Luoyang Jialanji, is now only three-story earthen platform site), the overall recovery may not want to see it in my life. After half an hour, I saw someone coming up with their hands behind their backs and ran away. Remember, don't step on the foundation of the earthen wall and don't destroy the only facilities inside.
The second stop of our research this year is the ancient city of Han and Wei. When we went, we were still under construction, and there were more exhibition boards. There are exhibition boards that introduce Lingtai, Taiji Temple, Restore Map Exhibition and so on. Looking around, they are all desolate land. Most of them just have a loamed soil, and the others have not been built. The National Archaeological Site Park has only one room exhibition for the time being. There is a large restoration map of the ruins in the room, and there are many houses built. The north is built on Lushan, and the momentum is very grand. I think that I was still very proud. Then we went to the city wall, the city wall is now simply protected, there are the city wall sites of various periods, the later wall was added on the basis of the previous dynasties. After that, we went to the nearby archaeological base, visited the site of Taiji Temple, Tongtu Street site, etc. A must-see base for those who like history.
