703 Trip to the Temple of Literature

"When I arrived in Yunnan, there was a place I had to go, and that was the 'ancient city of Dali'.

As early as the end of the fifties of the last century, there was such a movie, called "Five Golden Flowers", at that time, the friends should know that there is a Dali in Yunnan through this movie, I really watched it some time ago, especially the lyrics in the movie episode "Dali is good in March, and the butterfly spring is good for makeup", until now I think this lyric is so appropriate.

Of course, just like I said yesterday, almost all people who have read Jin Yong's martial arts "Dragon Babu" and those who have watched this TV series should have a very deep impression of Dali. ”

Zhang Yang, who left the hotel with his backpack and balance bike, strolled through the streets of the ancient city, looking at the busy crowd on the street, as well as the curious and joyful expressions on the faces of the tourists who came here in the morning, and couldn't help but sigh again with the people in the live broadcast room about this desirable ancient city.

Clean stone pavement, antique modern shops, and curious tourists can be said to be a scene step by step on the way to the Temple of Literature.

In the ancient city, at a glance, almost all are shops, mainly selling silver ornaments, jade, antiques, marble decorations, batik tie-dye clothing, Bai nationality dwellings and shops are closely connected, workshops, temples, churches, academies are dotted in the meantime, forming a unique picture of the ancient city scenery.

The streets are also full of native Bai people, especially the Bai girls in front of the shops are the most conspicuous, their costumes are both bright and simple, white clothes and turbans, with bright red or blue coats, everyone has a smile on their faces.

"By the way, since you have come here, let's popularize some knowledge to everyone by the way, especially after you come here, if you want to contact the Bai people.

We need to know that the Bai people are hospitable, the first guest and then the host is their hospitality etiquette here, the guests come to the house, generally treat each other with wine and tea, the famous 'three teas' is the hospitality of the Bai people, but the Bai people pour tea generally only pour half a cup, pour the wine needs to be full of glasses, they think that the wine is full of respect, the tea is full of deception, if you come here by the Bai people warm hospitality, you should say 'Nuowei you' is the meaning of thank you.

However, we must pay attention here not to swear in front of the elderly, and we are not allowed to stilt our legs, in fact, this situation is the same in the traditional customs of our Chinese people to respect the old and love the young, and the same respect for the elders is also the traditional virtue of the Bai nationality.

For example, when you see the elderly, you should take the initiative to greet, greet, give way, give up your seat, serve tea, and hand over cigarettes, and the first cup of morning tea after getting up should be given to the old man first, and the old man should be allowed to sit on the table when eating, and the old man should move the chopsticks first, and he should not say dirty words in front of the old man, and he was not allowed to stilt his legs.

Especially in some mountainous areas, the family members have a relatively fixed seat, the general male elders sit on the upper left, the female elders sit on the upper right, the guests and the younger generations sit below and above, the fire pond of the Bai family is also a sacred place, we must not spit on the fire pond, and even prohibit crossing from the fire pond, of course, the threshold of the Bai family is also taboo to sit on the person, the tools used by men, women can not cross from above, and it is taboo to wear filial piety in other people's families to enter, and the people here think that this will bring uncleanness to the family。

Don't think that I am talking about these troubles, in fact, if you think about it carefully, what I just said is not the traditional virtues in our national culture, but in recent years, some people have abandoned this, of course, if those who never pay attention to these, I believe that similar people will basically not make people look comfortable whether they are here or elsewhere!"

Reminding people who want to come here in the live broadcast room some things that need to be paid attention to, Zhang Yang has unconsciously come to a door that opens to the east, which is a building complex completed in the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty.

On the right side of the door, there is a book on the right side of the door, "Deguan Shengmin traces the earth to open the sky and open the Xianzun Shouwang", and on the left side of the book "Daolong Group Shengtong Jin Shengyu Zhen Yang Dacheng", Qing Shizong Aixin Jueluo Yinzhen left a couplet in the Confucian Temple, of course, it is definitely not the original version here in this Confucian Temple, look inside the door, and the wall is inlaid with four golden characters of "Wan Qian Palace Wall".

Dali Confucian Temple, was built in the early Ming Dynasty, the site is now the east of the gate of the headquarters of Dali No. 1 Middle School, the building of Dali Confucian Temple has undergone several changes and demolition, but finally restored and rebuilt on December 11, 2014, after more than a year of intense construction.

As for the building of the Temple of Literature, there is no need to say more, it is to commemorate the temple building of Confucius, the great thinker and educator of our country, and it is also called the Temple of Literature, the Temple of Confucius, the Temple of the Holy Temple, the Temple of the First Master, the Temple of the First Sage, and the Temple of the King of Wenxuan, especially in the name of the "Temple of Literature".

Speaking of the original south of the Wu Temple, the north of the Confucian Temple, between the Confucian Temple and the Wu Temple there is an auspicious slope, the Wu Temple and the Confucian Temple in the minds of Dali people have a very important position.

However, the pattern of the original Dali Confucian Temple is relatively large, the location of the current city library is the Dacheng Hall of the Confucian Temple, the Tianzi Platform in front of the Dacheng Hall is basically the current position, the marble slab of the Tianzi Platform in the past is three or four times larger than the current stone slab, surrounded by marble railings, and the current Dacheng Gate was originally Baoguo Temple, and it became the Dacheng Gate after the completion of the Confucian Temple.

Speaking of the history of Dacheng Gate than the Confucian Temple Dacheng Hall is a little earlier, China's famous architect Liang Sicheng has inspected here, he believes that this Dacheng Gate is the Ming Dynasty building, and the original hall is the Qing Dynasty Tongzhi period of the building, according to Liang Sicheng, Dacheng Gate is the Lingxing Gate in front of the Dacheng Gate, built quite well, there are bucket arches, warped feet; In front of the Lingxing Gate is Pan Pond, and then in front of it is the big Zhao Wall, from the central axis of the Confucian Temple, it looks like this, on both sides is the current City Cultural Center Activity Room is the seventy-two sages and two small courtyards, each small courtyard has two moon palace gates, and the other side serves as the kitchen of the Confucian Temple.

Of course, this is just to give you a general understanding, and I'll take you all the way through when I go in!"

Now the Temple of Literature has begun to open for free, and after coming in, you can see a lot of tourists and locals coming and going, Zhang Yang just passed by each building, by the way, he just gave a general introduction, and talked about their past and present when passing by each corresponding building.

Zhang Yang brought a few fans in the live broadcast room to the customs and appearance of the ancient city of Dali, instead of making a special trip to see the ancient buildings, so after entering the Confucian Temple, he only introduced each building roughly, and then quickly integrated himself into the crowds of tourists on the street.

Although there is an inescapable commercial atmosphere here, there are still people who like to stop and walk here, passing through the quaint and quiet alleys, and sniffing its unique historical atmosphere.
