Which district of Beijing is Zhaogongkou?

Zhaogongkou

Address: Fengtai District, Beijing

Zhaogongkou is located between Liujiayao and Muxiyuan in the south of Beijing. Since Yuan made Beijing its capital, this place has been the only place to enter Beijing from the south.

Zhao Gong, the legendary God of Wealth Zhao Gongming, originally had a temple dedicated to the God of Wealth. The south asked officials to pay tribute and transport grain, and businessmen came to Beijing to stay here for rectification before they officially entered Beijing. Therefore, it has the reputation of gathering wealth from all over the world and being rich in all lakes.

As we all know, there are four feng shui treasures in Beijing, namely Zhaogongkou, Fu Bao Temple, Wanshou Palace and Jiejie. The place name of Zhaogongkou is named after the temple of Zhao Gongming, the god of wealth. According to the complete map of Ganlong Capital, there are ten temples of God of Wealth in Beijing, and this one is located at Zhaogongkou outside Yongdingmen, the main entrance of the Temple of Heaven. Named after Zhao Gongming, the god of wealth, it is often regarded as an authentic temple of the god of wealth by the people, so it is called "the entrance of financial resources in Beijing". The old man who basked leisurely on the roadside told us that Zhaogongkou is the entrance to the God of Wealth and has been the only place for the God of Wealth since ancient times. Local officials who come to Beijing for development and people who come to Beijing to buy and sell goods like to go to the Temple of Wealth here first and burn incense respectfully on the ground before doing business in Beijing. Later, the nearby Shanxi Guild Hall generally worshipped the god of wealth, so Zhao Gongkou had a good reputation of "gathering wealth from all over the world and enriching all the lakes".

Don't say that this is the only place named after Zhao Gongkou in Beijing. Even a place named after Zhao Gong is rare in China. It makes sense to say that it is a land of wealth.

Nowadays, Zhao Gongkou has become a new hot spot, because the most sunny and fashionable tennis has become a new hot spot that people pay attention to. According to the old man in the street, the developer circled the land opposite the Guang Cai Gymnasium several years ago, and it won't be long before the former site of No.3 Jiajia Garden will also become a luxurious mansion, a national capital and a Washington DC. Sure enough, heavy trucks shuttled back and forth in the gate with the sign "Jiajia Garden No.3". Zhao Gongkou, which shines brightly in winter, looks serene and warm, and the passage of time seems to have washed away the bustling atmosphere of Shanxi merchants. But the spirit and wisdom of self-improvement and wealth creation are deeply rooted in this land. Now Beijing has gathered entrepreneurs from all over the country and even the world. Perhaps, Zhao Gongkou, a name that once made Shanxi businessmen brilliant, will become a place where more people have new jobs in the future.
