Historical Evolution of Baxianshan National Nature Reserve in Tianjin

The stratum of Baxian Mountain is the Great Wall quartzite deposited in the ancient sea from 654.38+0.4 billion years ago to 654.38+0.8 billion years ago. By 1 100 million years ago, another major geological phenomenon appeared in Yanshan area: Yanshan movement faults, folds and uplifts appeared, revealing the face of mountains, and the landform of Baxian Mountain was basically formed.

Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty sent Mr. Feng Shui to hike near Changrui Mountain because there were no good caves to choose from in Tianshou Mountain. He took a fancy to the good feng shui in this area and planned to build a royal cemetery in this area.

In the eighth year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty (165 1), Shunzhi took a fancy to this treasure land of Dongling, but no imperial tomb was built during his reign. The construction of the imperial tomb began in the Kangxi period. The Qing Dynasty also built six royal tombs at the foot of Huanghua Mountain and behind Shitouying Village near Baxian Mountain.

In the second year of Xuantong (19 10), the Qing government was unable to pay the salaries of Dongling guards, so it announced the lifting of the "Feng Shui Forbidden Zone in Qingling" and "paying salaries with forests". Wood merchants from all over the world flocked to Baxian Mountain and its surrounding forests for predatory logging. In this historic disaster, the virgin forest of Baxian Mountain was seriously damaged.

Baxianshan area is one of the revolutionary base areas in eastern Hebei, with high mountains and dense forests, and is inaccessible.

In the anti-Japanese struggle, Baxian Mountain used its natural barrier to protect the Eighth Route Army and the people, and it was the beacon tower of the anti-Japanese front. The Japanese invaders also took this place as the focus of bombing, which made the already riddled Baxianshan forest looted by gunfire.

After the founding of New China, Jixian State-owned Forest Farm was established in Baxian Mountain from 65438 to 0955. The forests around Baxian Mountain were maintained for more than 40 years, and the forest ecosystem and environment of Baxian Mountain were gradually restored, forming a rare natural secondary forest area with primitive forest characteristics in northern China.
