In fact, do not dare to write about Jinci, because we feel that his knowledge of the history of the extreme poor, are indeed powerless. However, because of this, only hope that more people can enjoy this ancient monuments, also liked the Chinese ancient culture.
Jinci on the outskirts of Taiyuan. But before I asked a few friends, which also has Taiyuan City, but it seems no one can fully and accurately say what Jinci origins. Now want to come it is normal, since this part of history too far away from us, and the remote is not easy to let other people know what one another is not easy to know that memory.
Jinci hanging urn foot of the mountain is located in the southern suburbs of Taiyuan, is the first one for the Jin princes Tang Shuyu built, Wu Tang Shuyu is a prince, from which we can imagine the history of this shrine. Of course, this shrine does not necessarily started in that era, but the exact age seems to have no textual research.
Jinci in the east of the entrance, you enter the Temple to, we can see towering old trees and old buildings. In the guide's introduction, we have a better understanding of how much scenery. Most began to have a stage named Swie King units, the following are said to have eight vat, when the loudspeakers played the role of an opera when is China's most ancient sound, but are now in the ground can not be able to see. Swie King sets the words of Emperor Qianlong calligraphy teacher Chen 2 unitary inscription, is plaque Jinci countless three names are called plaque plaque of the first three. The other two famous calligrapher of the Ming Dynasty as a title, "Vietnam" and the hard spring at the old question of Mr. Fu Shan "difficult old" one plaque.
Taiwan to move forward from the Swie King, showing that four copper-plastic samurai, old age, and there are many legends relating thereto. And ask the belly with a hook, we then forward to see the top of the Xiandian Jinci architectural treasures, because the hall is not a nail, building structure, known as the brackets connecting Alice Mao connected, very solid. Even earlier is the only cross a bridge structure, known as the flying fish, marsh girder bridge, initially are all wooden structures, but after the founding of them decorated with white marble, so the whole structure now contains wood and stone, are also very special. This is coupled with two in front of the Virgin Goddess Temple, known as the jinci Sambo.
Hall inside the Virgin goddess mother-tert-yu is the statue of King Wu's queen. Virgin goddess outside the hall there are many columns where there are wooden Panlong, very rare, but some have been damaged, and the tour guide told us that absolutely can not touch by hand. Get in the temple, the absence of an interior room columns, so it is very open-hall, and there are well-known clay maid, is very rare in the Chinese culture an asset. Guide focuses briefed us on a dancer, came from the point of view, the tour guide said it was because she was a beautiful dance, just to be the empress of praise, so some room for complacency, but we move forward to switch from another point in the past, you can find its expression sadness, the eyes slight swelling and locking in the lament his life trapped, which is well-known face of yin and yang maid sculpture.
Come out from the temple, we can see there are a lot of plaque on the eaves, in which a book 'never hard to the old tin' four-character, hard to the difficulty of the old springs and old that what is taken here. This is a more distinctive bump block plaque, I at first sight is concave up, but in the guides explanation of how a closer look, was originally found protruding past the end guide told us that this is actually concave, because gold paint layer, look at the past convex feeling.
At this point we are from the west into the north, where the famous relying Shengmu Dian Zhou Bo, three thousand years of history, birth Dragon Claw vine, dried on longan, and ground into a 40 degrees inclination, there are still strong vitality, there is a short history of the cypress trees standing just supports placed at an angle of Zhou Bo, the formation of wonders. Looked to the west from here, above a row of delightful child, including reading Ge Li Bai, who is said to be the year where read and write poetry.
Is north of the hall dedicated to tert-Yu, Guo Sheng Mudian south is the famous old spring is difficult. Spring is a difficult old is no stranger to the name, but I was not until the old spring was difficult to know the original being in the jinci. With regard to the old spring is difficult, there are many fantastic legends, but now, because the mountain coal mining destroyed the groundwater resources and the springs are no longer difficult for the old.
The entire temple in a quiet, many artifacts of great historical value.
This is what we probably see jinci.
