Day 34, May 16, from Hanzhong to Weinan: 335, 4:41

From an altitude of more than 500 to 1600, crossing the Qinling Mountains, there are tunnels one after another. Shortly after Hanzhong City came out, the speed limit was 80.

I originally planned to live in Weinan, but after visiting the Drum Tower, I felt that the city was very ordinary. Looking at the time, it was only 14:15, I decided to move closer to Zhengzhou. So, at 2:18, 171 kilometers, we arrived at Sanmenxia.

I drove for 7 hours today.

Lives in Sanmenxia City.

Weinan Drum Tower:

It sits north facing south, with a platform foundation about seven meters high at the lower part, and a glazed tile roof with double eaves and mountain style at the upper part.

Legend has it that this building was built in 613 in the ninth year of the Sui Dynasty. It was located in the center of the county at that time and was expanded during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. In December of the thirty-fourth year of Jiajing (1556), Huazhou was destroyed during the Great Earthquake. It was rebuilt the following year. It was also repaired in the Qing Dynasty.

In the middle below the Drum Tower, there is a north-south county-shaped doorway. The inscription of "Weinan County" is inlaid above the doorway. On both sides of the doorway, the inscriptions of "Sanqin Main Road" and "Eight Provinces Main Road" are inlaid respectively. Both were written by Zhang Guojun, the magistrate of Weinan County in the early years of Guangxu. These inscriptions not only become a symbol of Weinan, but also show the important geographical location of the area, extending in all directions and competing for military forces.

When I arrived in Sanmenxia, I still ate mutton kebabs when I went:

35, May 17, from Sanmenxia to Gongyi Kangbaiwan Manor: 184 kilometers, 2:16

To Song Mausoleum 6.3, 0:16;

To Du Fu's hometown.

1. Kang Baiwan Manor:

Admission is 53 yuan and parking is 10 yuan.

Class 4A, a national key cultural relic protection unit, together with Liu Wencai Manor in Sichuan and Mou Erhei Manor in Shandong, is known as the three major manors in the country, ranking first among the three major manors. It is known as the spiritual home of Henan Shang Dynasty and a model of ancient architecture in the Central Plains.

Located in Kangdian Town, Gongyi City, Henan Province, 4 kilometers away from the urban area, the manor was built in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. It consists of 19 parts and covers an area of more than 240 acres. It is a representative of feudal fort-style buildings on the Loess Plateau in North China in the 17th and 18th centuries. Its stone carvings, wood carvings, and brick carvings are known as the wonderful works of Central Plains art. In addition, the Kang family's ambition to seize the world with wealth and its spirit to benefit the world has persisted for four hundred years and has become a model of success for Henan merchants. Kang Baiwan Manor is also known as the "Home of Henan merchants."

"Kang Baiwan" is the collective name for the Kang Yingkui family since the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The Kang family in Gongyi, from the sixth ancestor Kang Shaojing to the 18th Kang Tinglan, boldly pioneering and innovative, and has been prosperous for twelve generations and more than four hundred years. In history, there were more than ten people, including Kang Dayong, Kang Daoping, and Kang Hongyou, all of whom were called "Kang Baiwan" by the local people. In 1900, when the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded Beijing, Empress Dowager Cixi fled westward with Emperor Guangxu. In the following year, 1901, she passed through Gongxian County, which is now Gongyi, and returned to Beijing. Due to the famine and financial deficit in Henan at that time, the local magistrate was unable to receive them, so he asked the Kang family to fund the two palaces. After Cixi and Guangxu arrived in Gongyi, they stayed for one night in the "palace" built by the Kang family. Before leaving the next day, Kang Hongyou, the head of the Kang family, donated 1 million taels of silver to Cixi through Li Lianying. Cixi was very happy and said,"I didn't know there were millionaires here." From then on, the title of "Kang Baiwan" became even more famous around the world through Cixi's golden mouth.

Kang Baiwan Manor not only retains the form of residential buildings on the Loess Plateau and northern courtyard houses, but also absorbs the characteristics of official, garden and military fortress buildings. It is based on the traditional culture of "harmony between man and nature, learning from nature". It builds caves on the mountains, buildings on the street, docks on the river, and walls on the dangers. It has built a large-scale landlord manor with complete functions, careful layout, and strict hierarchy. It integrates farmers, officials and businessmen. Its stone carvings, wood carvings, and brick carvings are praised as a wonderful work of Central Plains art. The entire manor covers an area of more than 240 acres. What has been preserved mainly includes ten major parts including residential area, penthouse area, workshop area, south courtyard, ancestral hall area, 33 courtyards, 53 buildings, 97 bungalows, and 73 hole caves., a total of 571 rooms, with a building area of 64300 square meters. Surprisingly, such a huge complex has only one entrance. Without the guidance of informed passers-by, it is extremely difficult for strangers to find the exit. They meandered through the manor, as if they had entered a big maze. Different from the houses built by most wealthy families, Kangjiazhuang's architectural style can be said to be unique. Its main entrance is comparable to ancient city gates, with main walls on both sides of the entrance. There is also a condescending observation deck inside the door modeled on the observation deck of the Great Wall in Beijing. Enter the door and climb up the steps to reach the observation deck. Looking into the distance from the stage, you can see the rolling Mangshan Mountains in a panoramic view, and the gurgling sound of Luoshui in the distance is gradually coming to your ears. It can be said that the scenery is wonderful!

The Central Plains region has always been a battleground for military strategists, and wars are frequent. In order to protect Wanguan's family business and pursue the idea of leaving behind, the Kang family also designed many treasure holes while building the manor. Currently officially open to the public, there are two places where the Kang family used to store treasures, namely the underground gold and silver warehouse in the Yufang District and the "Treasure Cave" in the First Hospital of the Main Residential District. This is a mysterious channel through which Kang's "treasure in rich times" and "escape in chaos" have dual functions. Historically, the Kang family took advantage of six major opportunities: the "official supervision and business management" of official salt in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, marriage with descendants of Zhu Ming, opening up water transportation to Shandong, taking advantage of the Qing court's suppression of the White Lotus Religion and the Nian Army, and welcoming the Guangxu Cixi Cixi., bold management, continuous expansion, integration of agriculture, commerce, and officials, mutual development and complement each other. Its core characteristics can be summarized in sixteen words: seizing business opportunities, seizing opportunities, boldly exploring, and expanding land. In the end, the Kang family became the richest man in the Central Plains and the number one person in Henan Shang Dynasty.

2. Song Mausoleum:

The tomb of the Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127) and his imperial family buried with him are national key cultural relics protection units. They are one of the largest existing famous imperial tombs with the most complete ground sites in my country.

The Fengshui Treasure Land "Born in Suzhou and Hangzhou and Buried in Beimang" is the largest imperial mausoleum group in central China. It covers an area of about 156 square kilometers and has more than 300 tombs in total. More than 700 exquisite stone carvings are stored on the site. It has important cultural relics value and artistic value. This huge tomb group covered almost all emperors of the Northern Song Dynasty. Among the nine emperors of the Northern Song Dynasty, except for the two emperors Hui and Qin who were captured by the Jin people and died in Mobei, the other seven emperors were buried in Gongyi. In addition to the tombs of Zhao Kuangyin's father Zhao Hongyin, they are collectively referred to as the "Seven Emperors and Eight Mausoleums". The tombs of famous ministers such as Kou Zhun and Bao Zheng are also among them. Surrounding the eight imperial tombs, there are nearly a thousand tombs of the queen, tombs of royal relatives, and tombs of famous generals and meritorious ministers. Nearly a thousand stone carvings on the ground exist. It is a vast museum of the history of the Song Dynasty.

The Song Mausoleum created several precedents for setting up mausoleum areas. All emperors of a dynasty were buried in one place, which reflected human etiquette, reflected the royal order of superior and inferior, and strictly hierarchical, and formed a theoretical and unique royal funeral culture.

Seven emperors and eight mausoleums of the Northern Song Dynasty. According to the order of burial time, the order of the eight mausoleum is: Yong 'an Mausoleum of Xuanzu of Song Dynasty, Yongchang Mausoleum of Emperor Taizu of Song Dynasty, Yongxi Mausoleum of Emperor Taizong of Song Dynasty, Yongding Mausoleum of Emperor Zhenzong of Song Dynasty, Yongzhao Mausoleum of Emperor Renzong of Song Dynasty, Yonghou Mausoleum of Emperor Yingzong of Song Dynasty, Yongyu Mausoleum of Emperor Shenzong of Song Dynasty, and Yongtai Mausoleum of Emperor Zhenzong of Song Dynasty. In addition, there are nearly 1000 tombs in total, including empresses, imperial clans, princes, princes, royal grandchildren, as well as Gao Huaide, Zhao Pu, Cao Bin, Cai Qi, Kou Zhun, Bao Zheng, Di Qing, Yang Liulang and other meritorious officials. The operation lasted for more than 160 years. Among the emperors and Hou tombs of the Northern Song Dynasty, 8 emperor tombs are well preserved. The Empress 'tombs are mainly distributed in the four mausoleum areas of Xicun, Caizhuang, Xiaoyi and Baling, covering an area of more than 30 square kilometers, forming a large-scale and majestic royal tomb group.

The tomb of the emperor sits from north to south, with the Quetai, Rutai, and Shinto columns of stones from south to north; the north of the Shinto is the Shanggong; a square divine wall is built around the Shanggong, with a circumference of nearly a thousand meters. There is a divine gate in the middle of the four sides, and a que platform (corner watchtower) is built in the four corners of the divine wall; in the center of the Shanggong is a dough-shaped mausoleum platform with a circumference of more than 200 meters at its bottom, and an underground palace is under the stage. The Houmausoleum is in the northwest of the Imperial Mausoleum. The layout and architecture are similar to those of the Imperial Mausoleum, except that the shape is smaller and there are fewer stone carvings. The lower palace is a place for daily banquets. In the north or northwest corner of the upper palace, the ground buildings have disappeared.

Yong 'an Mausoleum is the first tomb of the Eight Mausoleum of the Seven Emperors of the Northern Song Dynasty. The tomb owner Zhao Hongyin and the father of Zhao Kuangyin, the Taizu of the Song Dynasty.

Yongchang Mausoleum is the second imperial mausoleum in the imperial mausoleum area of the Northern Song Dynasty and the actual first mausoleum. Zhao Kuangyin, the owner of the tomb, was the famous Taizu of the Song Dynasty in Chinese history and the founder of the Northern Song Dynasty.

The above are all the information we read. We navigated to "Song Mausoleum", and the sign at the entrance reads "Yongzhao Mausoleum". When I asked passers-by, the answer was that this was the best protected one.

During this self-driving tour, safe driving was achieved and no traffic violations occurred. It fully shows that I am a good driver who obeys the law.

There are very few tourists in this self-driving tour, and some of them are our special events.

For this self-driving tour, some attractions are closed, especially indoor and free.

For this self-driving tour, I enjoyed free high-speed travel from April 13 to May 5.

This self-driving tour is a pleasant and smooth self-driving trip!

This is my 28th travel note, and I hope it will be helpful to tourists! Please criticize and correct!
