Tourist attractions in Zhoushi Town

1. The earliest local chronicles of Kunshan, Weicheng and Chengdonglin, Yu Fengzhi, said: In Kunshan, "Twelve people were named after the city in the ruins." According to Chen, an expert in literature and history, as early as the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, Wu built two cities, Dongcheng and Xiducheng, in today's Yushan Town. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, according to historical records, through field investigation and archaeological excavation, there are 14 ancient cities in Kunshan: Dongcheng, West Lucheng, Bacheng, Luocheng, Nanwucheng, Weicheng, Lindong, Hongcheng, Xicencheng, Yan County, Wapucheng, Jincheng, Ducheng, Kunshan County and Niubang of Zhou Dongming Village. 2. Chenghuangtan

Chenghuangtan Village is a natural village in Xietang Village, Zhoushi Town, bordering Shuangfeng Town, Taicang City. There are more than 320 households in the village with 1247 people, with a land area of 1860 mu and a water area of 956 mu. Most villagers are mainly engaged in farming and aquaculture. Here is beautiful scenery, simple folk customs, harmonious neighborhood and rich aquatic products, which makes people linger. In particular, the legends of the 72 Town God temples in this village are confusing, and opinions vary. The water maze is even more fascinating and intriguing. It is said that after the reunification of the whole country, Emperor Taizong made great contributions and sent Weichi Gong, who had outstanding military exploits, to Kunshan to protect the peace of one side. After a patrol, General Wei Chi found that Zhou's area, where Wu Wang used to hunt deer, was low-lying and densely covered with water pools, so he could camp and station troops, build water conservancy projects and develop farmland. The officers and men have been building it for years, and many pools run through it. Thieves have strayed into it many times, and some have gone and never returned. There are more fish and shrimp wandering in the pool, and chickens and ducks strolling by the pool, which is a lively scene. According to legend, after Weichi Gong's death, the people appreciated his kindness and honored him as the local protector "Town God", so they called these ponds "Town God Ponds". 3. Yemadu (Wild Cat Cave) "Yemadu", formerly known as "Wild Cat Cave", is an ancient village on the north bank of Loujiang River. It is named after overgrown weeds, inaccessible places and wild cats. Han Shizhong, a famous Song Dynasty star, once defeated Jin Wushu here, crossing the Loujiang River by hundreds of horses. The scene is spectacular. In order to commemorate Han Shizhong, the common people called the ferry "Yemadu" with the homonym of "Wild Cat Cave". In 1930s and 1940s, the town of Yemadu was once located here, which is now Zhujing Village. Baitatou was located in Kunshan in ancient times. August 18 is a special day, just like a festival, where citizens come out to see the rolling tide at the junction of Xinyang Port (later called Qingyang Port) and Taicang Tang outside the east gate. During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, Song Yifu, the magistrate of Kunshan, established the "Tide Waiting Hall" here. After that, every August 18, Kunshan county magistrate will hold a banquet in the hall to welcome the arrival of the "tide god". During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, people donated money to build a "Jade Pearl Tower" with masonry structure. The tower is built in the middle of the river where two rivers meet. Because of its white color, it is usually called the White Pagoda. Because of this tower, the center of the river is also called "White Pagoda", and the north of the tower is the north bank of the Loujiang River. The place where people can stop (in this Zhou town) is called "White Pagoda Head", while the name of "Xijindu" is gradually forgotten. It is said that the White Pagoda and the Dragon King Temple next to it were built to commemorate Liu Bei's third wife during the Three Kingdoms period. Because there is a white pagoda in the temple, also called Yuzhu Pagoda, it is called "White Pagoda Longwang Temple", which is far from the Lujia "Tiger Dragon King Temple" (Tiger Dragon King Temple is said to have been built in the Song Dynasty). Longwang Temple undoubtedly belongs to Taoism, and the draft of Kunshan County Records by Kangxi in Qing Dynasty said that "Yuzhu Tower is outside Binximen, and the old Wangjiang Temple was built by monks in the ninth year of Wanli in Ming Dynasty", which means that this place is the site of Buddhism. Folklore is quite different from historical records. It is not clear whether it was built by a Taoist or a monk, and I don't want to know. Today, the White Tower Longwang Temple where the Taoist Association is located is full of incense. People would rather believe legends than historical materials, which is very helpless. 5. Wan 'an Temple

Wan 'an Temple, formerly known as Wan 'an Hall, is commonly known as Doutian Temple. Located in the south bank of Sanqianwan Stone Bridge in Xietang, there are two buildings along the river. According to the investigation, Wan 'an Hall was built in Shunzhi period of Qing Dynasty, and its founder was Chen Hu, who was mainly used to cover the struggle against Qing Dynasty. Therefore, the bodhisattvas enshrined in the temple are different, especially King Robin, who is listed as a "water official" by Taoism, which is unique in China for more than 300 years. On December 12th, the first year of Tongzhi in Qing Dynasty (A.D.186365438+1October 30th), tens of thousands of troops of Tan Shaoguang, King of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, attacked Zhou from Tang Zhi, Changshu, and San Qian Bay was the only place to March. Wan 'an Hall was destroyed and burned. Later, because the Taoist priest prayed for rain, an altar was built in the former site of Wan 'an Hall, and the incense was revived. Later, he raised money to rebuild the Wan 'an Hall, and renamed it "Patrolling the Capital Hall on behalf of Heaven". The tile-roofed house structure, including the gate, porch, patio and hall, is the master of the capital for Wang Luobin. A temple monument stands in the gate, which records the evolution from "Tang" to "Temple". The date of the monument was about six years of Tongzhi (AD 1867). A well, bluestone fence and bamboo bucket are opened outside the mountain gate to facilitate pedestrians to rest and drink. At the same time, it is determined that the second half of the lunar calendar is the temple fair day every year. 1950, the temple was destroyed. 1994, approved by the Kunshan Municipal Bureau of Religious Affairs, the temple was rebuilt in the original site of Sanqianwan and renamed as Wan 'an Temple. 1998, declared as a place for religious activities after examination and approval. On September 1 day, 2003, Wan 'an Temple was incorporated into the management of Kunshan Buddhist Association. June 65438+February 65438+March 2003, the opening ceremony of Tianwang Temple was held. In 2006, the West Wing Three Temples were built. Today's Wan 'an Temple, with lush trees and beautiful scenery, is full of worshippers. 6. "Zhou Guang Tomb" and "Memorial Tomb" Ming Jiajing's "Kunshan County Records" records that during the reign of Ming Jiajing (1522- 1566), Zhou Guang, assistant minister of punishments, and Zhou Yu, chief of punishments in Nanjing (a former witness in Yunnan) were buried at the eastern end of Zhou's town. Zhou Guang (1474— 153 1), a native of Kunshan. In the eighteenth year of Hongzhi, he was a scholar and learned Putian and Jishui counties through the calendar, with the most outstanding achievements. In the seventh year of Jiajing, he was an assistant minister of punishments and died suddenly two years later. Guangping is as cold as ice, without a smile, but the waves are stormy, and the officials are strong and fearful. Ming history has its own biography. There are nine volumes of Rosa, which are widely published in the world. Gui Youguang, who is also an essayist, has infinite admiration for this elder, and has made a biography of his Xinghua Bookstore (the story of Xinghua Bookstore), which is famous throughout the ages. Zhou Yu, a scholar in the 13th year of Zheng De in Ming Dynasty 1 14, was an official of the Ministry of Punishment, and once worked in Yunnan. At present, Zhou's old health care center (Ren Guang branch) is the former "funeral grave", and a mile east of the old health care center is the "Zhou Guang grave". Before liberation, there were stone benches and horses beside the mausoleum, and ginkgo trees that only a few people could hold. It was destroyed after liberation and was named Zhou Shu because of the villa. 7. Town Dongqiao Township

In Zhendong Village, Zhoushi Town, Kunshan City, Jiangsu Province, a village consisting of more than 30 European-style "Xiaoyanglou" buildings built during the Republic of China was found to be the only hometown of overseas Chinese in southern Jiangsu.

Starting from Kunshan City, it is about 10 km eastbound along Kuntai Highway, and a "Xiaoyanglou" building complex on the north side of the highway is "Zhendong Hometown of Overseas Chinese". The earliest cement road in Kunshan, located in the hometown of overseas Chinese, has a history of more than 80 years. Lao Wu, 66, is a retired teacher. His brother-in-law's family 1983 immigrated to the United States, and his two younger brothers also immigrated to the United States. Zhendong Village is a natural village with four villagers' groups and 120 households. Villagers come from all corners of the country, and there are more than 20 overseas Chinese, mostly Huang and Wu. Zhoushi Town was reorganized into Dongfang Village. When many overseas Chinese emigrate, they either sell their houses to local people or entrust others to manage them. Hu Ming, deputy director of CPPCC Kunshan Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Ethnic and Religious Committee, has a special liking for Zhendong's hometown of overseas Chinese. According to his research, the hometown of overseas Chinese in Zhendong is the only hometown of overseas Chinese in southern Jiangsu. "Dozens of buildings in the style of the Republic of China are basically well preserved. Such dense buildings in the Republic of China are extremely rare in the country, and their humanistic value is worth studying." As for the hometown of overseas Chinese in Zhendong, it is described in Kunshan County Records: "Hometown of Overseas Chinese" was built from 15 to 17 (1926- 1928) in the Republic of China, and was built by Guangdong and Fujian Garrison who returned from overseas with Dr. Sun Yat-sen./kloc-. Zhendong hometown of overseas Chinese was founded in 1923, because returned overseas Chinese from Taishan County of Guangdong Province founded Zhendong Land Reclamation Company here. Huang Xiang and Ma Xiang, Canadian returned overseas Chinese who followed Dr. Sun Yat-sen back to China, served as the chief security officer and deputy security officer of the Presidential Palace respectively. At that time, many overseas Chinese living in the United States and Canada often came to Nanjing for sightseeing, including relatives of Huang Hema. Many people want to go back to China to develop and do something to revitalize the motherland. However, the social atmosphere in Guangdong at that time was not satisfactory. Huang Hema heard that Jiangnan was much better than Mount Tai, so he entrusted them to buy land and settle down near Shanghai. They immediately entrusted Qi Zhuosheng, an American returned overseas Chinese who works as an ordinary servant in Nanjing Overseas Chinese Affairs Committee, to find a place for him. So, they found Zhu Zhongfu, an overseas Chinese in Kunshan. He worked as a cashier under Cen Chunxuan, the former governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and Cen had more than 30 agricultural reclamation companies in Kunshan, covering tens of thousands of mu of land. Qi Zhuosheng personally visited Kunshan, selected a land reclamation company at the junction of Kunshan and Taicang, and bought 1.008 mu of land with 5000 yuan. After several years of development, it has become a paradise for returned overseas Chinese, with more than 300 overseas Chinese settled.
