Humanistic history of the Longwang Temple complex in Fenshui

At the bottom of the theater is the gate walkway. From Longwangmiao Hall to the left, there are Wang Yu Hall and Shuiminglou. The high platform of Wang Yu Hall is decorated with flat dragon-shaped tiles and covered with green and yellow tiles. There is a statue of Yu Wang in the temple. It looks as natural and quiet as a breeze. On the balcony in front of the temple, there is an arch ticket aisle in the middle, which is equipped with door leaves. When you go ashore from the canal and climb the steps, you must enter the Wang Yu Temple through this gate. On the stage, the Shuiguang Building built on the mountain. In the Qing Dynasty, Qiao Songnian inscribed the plaque "Shuiliang Building", and there were also three plaques on the front eaves of the building, namely, "Four mountains facing each other" on the left, "Two rivers diverging" on the right, and "Silver and Han light sharing" in the middle. The carved stone case, the green column of the bamboo pavilion, if you look from the railing, the canal is winding, the water is surging, the sails are like forests, and the boats are like shuttles, which is refreshing. On the west side of Shuiming Building, there is a rockery called Shi Leilei. Next to the Imperial Monument Pavilion, the monument in the pavilion is the poem monument of Emperor Qianlong of Qing Dynasty who visited Wang Nan Longwang Temple six times. On the left is the Song Gong Temple, in memory of Song Li, an expert in industrial and commercial affairs in the Ming Dynasty. Grey walls and grey tiles are simple and solemn. There is a statue of Song Li in the hall; On both sides of the temple, there is a combined statue, one is Pan Shuzheng, the tongzhi of Jining Prefecture, and the other is Bai Ying, a farmer water conservancy expert in Wenshang. Since the completion of the Gong Temple in the Song Dynasty, the official literati in the Ming and Qing Dynasties have been amazed at its outstanding achievements in managing water tanks, and made a special trip to pay their respects, or stopped by and wrote a poem. Up to now, the stories and ballads of "Songjiahe, Baijiaquan and Panjiamen" have been circulated. A humble farmer is better than many Bai Ying, a court official. In order to commemorate his ancestral temple, people built it next to Song Gong Temple, which is called "Bailaotou Temple". It was named Yongji Temple in the fourth year of Yongzheng in Qing Dynasty and White King in the fifth year of Guangxu, so it was also called Yongji Temple and White King Temple. The Baidawang Temple was built in the seventh year of Zheng De in Ming Dynasty, and there is a statue of Bai Ying in Sancha Hall. There is a wall and a gate. In addition, there are Mo Gong Temple, Grasshopper Temple, Guandi Temple, Guanyin Pavilion and other buildings. Because Wang Nan seized the canal throat, it was related to the important task of water transportation. In the Qing Dynasty, Wang Nan County of Wenshang County was set up in Wang Nan, and the county government was located behind Guanyin Pavilion of Longwang Temple Group. The yamen also set up Wenxun, Wu Xun, He Biao and Cao Biao camps, and set up Zhanggong Academy and Wang Nan Yixue. These buildings are integrated with Longwang Temple Group, adding to the grand momentum of Wang Nan Fenshui Longwang Temple Group. It can be seen that Fenshui Longwang Temple is an ancient architectural complex with various cultural connotations.
