The former site of Xiayi Licheng is located in the southwest of the county, surrounded by eight rivers and eight lakes. History: Xiayi is a famous chestnut in Shang Dynasty, and Zhou is a Song domain and a fief of Confucius. Hou Li was founded in the Han Dynasty. Ming Jiajing's "Xiayi County Records" records that Xiayi's old city was "built in the Warring States Period, surrounded by more than five miles", and the city lake "borrowed soil to build a city because of the pool". Due to the continuous transformation of fish ponds and the development of urban lakes, a large number of cultural relics have been unearthed. During the period of 1983, a number of cultural relics from the Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties were found in the West Lake of the city when the fish pond was restored. Cultural relics in the Song Dynasty include: celadon bowls, more than a dozen bowls with white glaze and black flowers, a bluestone "fish dragon" inkstone, a jade seal, a big copper basin and a cremation pelvis, as well as more than a dozen statues of the Ming Dynasty celadon pottery kings and blue and white porcelain bowls in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. 1992 During the development of Hu Cheng Lake University, some white-glazed and black-flowered porcelain bowls, porcelain bottles and plates of the Song Dynasty were unearthed, and brick tombs of the Yuan Dynasty were found in Donghu Lake. This shows that there are still cultural relics hidden under the lake in the city. Now it is a key cultural relics protection unit in Shangqiu City.
Hu Tianlong Park.
Tianlong Lake, formerly known as Xiayi City Lake, has a long history and began in the Warring States Period. After several dynasties' recovery and development, it was formally formed in Zheng Deyuan of Ming Dynasty (A.D. 15 1 1). After 17 times of excavation, the inner and outer lakes were formed with the city wall as the boundary, with a total area of 3000 mu.
Hu Tianlong Park is located in the southwest of the county seat, next to the county government. This is one of the largest waters in the county. It was originally a moat in the old city of Xiayi (now a village in the city) and the earliest people's park developed in the county. The scenery in the park is beautiful and pleasant.
1in the spring of 1992, the largest comprehensive development plan of city and lake in the history of Xiayi was adopted and implemented by the county people's congress. In that year, the county invested more than 25,000 migrant workers with a capital of more than 20 million yuan. After more than four months of excavation and transformation, the first phase of the comprehensive development of the city and lake was completed. Subsequently, it invested nearly 5 million yuan to build facilities and scenic spots such as Huchengmen, asphalt road around the lake, octagonal pavilion, Jiuqu Bridge, Moon Bridge, Lake Island and Balong large stone carving. Today, Tianlong Lake, which surrounds the ancient city of Xiayi, is a bright pearl embedded in the land of eastern Henan. Shili long embankment, willow reflected in the water, beautiful scenery; Clear water, fish play, causing ripples; On the zigzag bridge, men and women, old and young, walked around and talked about it; In the amusement park, there is laughter and excitement. Ancient cities and lakes are full of vitality, making them good places for people to relax, sightseeing, boating, fishing and playing.
To commemorate the return of Confucius Temple
Confucius Temple is located in Wanggonglou Village, six kilometers north of Xiayi County. Confucius' ancestors were Song people in the Spring and Autumn Period (the ancestral home is Wanggonglou Village, six kilometers north of Xiayi County, Shangqiu City, and Confucius' ancestral grave is still here). In 680 BC, civil strife broke out in the Song Dynasty, and Confucius' great-grandfather prevented his uncle from going to Shandong to avoid the chaos. When Confucius came of age, he knew that Wanggonglou Village in Xiayi was his ancestral home, and he often went back to his ancestral home to worship his ancestors. The Confucius Temple of Returning Home was built in the early Tang Dynasty. It is shaped like a Confucius Temple, facing south, with a wall, an altar, two halls, four doors and a forest of steles. Now, the forty-fifth generation of Confucius, Sun Kong and Kong Yanfu, moved here from Qufu to settle down, and repaired and expanded the Confucius Temple. In the Jin Dynasty, an apricot altar was erected in front of Dacheng Hall. In the first year of Daoguang, a temple was built.
According to historical records, Confucius was born in changping town, Lu, and his ancestors were Song people. In the early Western Zhou Dynasty, Wei Ziqi was sealed in Song Liguo. I am a minor pawn, my brother is slightly neutral, my son is Song Li, my son is Li Shen, my son is Li Shen, my son is * * * Li, my son is * * * Li, my brother is Gong Gong, and my son is * * * Li. He Sheng Song Fuzhou, Zi Sheng, Sheng Kauff and Zheng Kauff all assisted Dai Gong, Wu Gong, etc., and were famous for their benevolence. His son, Kong Fu Jia, was a Sima in the Song Dynasty. Ten years later, he was killed by Taizai Huadu. Later, he left the Song Dynasty, and the third generation gave birth to Confucius. Yi Li, formerly known as Xiayi County, Henan Province, is 6 kilometers north of the city. Confucius first visited the tomb of the province here, and later generations thought about it and built a temple called the "Return of the Native Temple". The Home Returning Temple covers an area of more than 65,438+000 mu, which is a famous historical relic, with pavilions, magnificent steles and towering cypresses. Due to disrepair, it is gradually destroyed. In the 1990s, in order to promote Confucius culture, the Xiayi County Party Committee and the county government decided to restore the Confucius Temple of Returning Home. This decision was warmly supported by the broad masses and people of insight, who donated money voluntarily. Mr. Tang Enjia, Dean of the Confucius Institute in Hong Kong, donated 6,543,800 yuan and a bronze statue of Confucius. Starting from 1996, the restoration of the Confucius Temple in the Return of the Native started at the former site of the Confucius Temple in the Return of the Native, which was divided into three stages. 1998, the first phase of the project was completed and opened to the outside world, including Dachengmen, antique fence, ancestral temple river, Dachengdian and forest of steles. Simple and elegant, majestic and generous, full of national characteristics, it has become a bright pearl on the Qilu cultural tourism line in the Central Plains. Now it is a key cultural relics protection unit in Henan Province.
general peng xuefeng memorial

Among the pine and cypress flowers in the southeast corner of the memorial hall, a stone tablet engraved with "General Peng Xuefeng's martyrdom" shows people's eternal ambition and infinite admiration for the martyrs. There is a western-style building in the memorial hall, which was built by the Spanish in 1925 for missionary work. At that time, General Peng Xuefeng won the battle here. At the end of the battle, he was hit by a stray bullet in the left atrium and died heroically. After the liberation of the whole country, every year, the party and the state, the army and the leaders of provinces, prefectures and counties come to mourn and sacrifice.

The square in front of the memorial hall and the asphalt road leading from the county seat to the memorial hall were newly built.
Sui and Tang Dynasties Grand Canal Bianhe Ruins
The Grand Canal in Sui and Tang Dynasties is the longest man-made river in the world. Like the Great Wall, it is two ancient engineering wonders created by the people of China. The excavation of the Grand Canal has promoted the economic exchanges between the north and the south of China, which is of great significance to the economic development along the Canal and even to the national unity. During the 700 years from the Northern Song Dynasty to the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty, the Yellow River flooded south, the Huaihe River entered the sea, and the channel was silted up, making the Grand Canal in Xiayi County impassable and eventually abandoned. Due to the developed shipping in history, the ancient canal road left a large number of historical sites.
The Sui and Tang Dynasties Canal runs through the southern border of Xiayi County. According to the records of "The Great Unity and the Qing Dynasty", "(Sui Dyke) was built three miles outside Shangqiu County, in the east of Xiayi and Yongcheng counties, that is, the old road of Bianhe. Sui Canal enters Bali Temple, Jiyang and Huiting in Xiayi County from Yucheng County, and enters Yongcheng in the east, along both sides of Shang Yong Highway, with a total length of about 27 kilometers. In the capital construction and production construction projects, a large number of cultural relics from the Tang and Song Dynasties have been unearthed, which have high artistic value and are rare cultural relics. The Jiyang section of Xiayi still preserves the water surface of about 2000 meters long and 30-50 meters wide, which is the only site of the Grand Canal with well-preserved water surface in the northern region.
Xiayi section of Tongji Canal (Bianhe River) in Jiyang Town of Xiayi County is an important part of the Sui and Tang Grand Canal in China. It is the 46th World Heritage Project in China.
