scenic spot

Red Army Bridge

at the entrance of Changchang, Pingnan Qiang Township, Pingwu County, there is a well preserved and chic ancient corridor bridge. The bridge is called Songqiao, also known as Hongjun bridge. It was built in 1857 (the seventh year of Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty). It has a history of more than 100 years and is still playing a role. the Red Army Bridge is a full wood structure, about 10 meters long and 3 meters wide. It is about 8 meters high from the river. It crosses the river in the air and is majestic. In the middle of the corridor, there are two rows of columns, showing the flavor of simplicity. Walking on the bridge is very smooth. The ingenious use of logs and planks makes the bridge simple and powerful. From a distance, it looks like a castle in the air, which makes people marvel. The Red Army bridge has high research value in both the architectural features and the historical details.

The Red Army bridge has such an allusion:

It is said that long ago, there was no bridge in Pingnan, and people on both sides of the river could only wade through it. On a sunny day, a huge pine tree suddenly fell down on the stone piers on both sides of the river. It was said by the masses that this was a gift from heaven to the Qiang people. God foretold the place where the bridge would be built for the masses. The villagers added a lot of logs on both sides of the pine, fixed them, and laid Bridge Slabs on the bridge. In order to avoid the sun and rain and facilitate the masses to enjoy the cool and shelter from the rain, the roof of the building was covered with small green tiles. Because the bridge is made of pine, it is called Pine Bridge. According to the local elderly people, this is just a legend. It should be that in the Qing Dynasty, the local people raised funds to build the bridge under the guidance of the government due to the inconvenience of the travel and transportation of the Qiang people. In April 1935, the 30th army of the Fourth Front Army of the Chinese workers' and peasants' Red Army came to Pingnan and established the first Soviet Red regime in Pingwu County - the Soviet Pingnan County Committee. Before the Red Army entered Pingwu, local gentry and reactionaries wantonly created and spread rumors, slandered the Red Army and deceived the masses. In order to eliminate the adverse influence of the reactionaries on the Red Army, and because the bridge was in disrepair and seriously damaged, Li Tianhuan, director of the Political Department of the Red Army's 30th army, sent Red Army soldiers to repair the bridge: add tiles to cover the leaking places, reinforce the piers, and replace the broken wooden boards with new ones. This made the red army win the trust of the masses, which laid the foundation for leading the masses to overthrow the landlords and gentry, divide the land equally and establish the Soviet government. The Red Army also wrote propaganda slogans on the wooden boards and columns of the bridge, which are still available today. After that, people changed Songqiao to Hongjun bridge. the Red Army Bridge is still playing a role and is closely connected with the life of the Qiang people. According to the local people, since their ancestors, they have been crossing the river by the Red Army Bridge. All necessities for production and life, transporting grain and selling livestock have to pass through the Red Army Bridge. They have been in love with the Red Army Bridge for generations. In 2006, Pingnan Qiang township government built a new bridge not far from the Red Army Bridge, which lightened the load of the Red Army Bridge and effectively protected the hundred year old bridge. after a hundred years of wind and rain, the Red Army bridge stands on the Pingnan River, spanning a long time and witnessing the changes of Qiang township. The leaders of Pingnan Qiang Township said that in the future, the ancient bridge, which integrates architecture, history and red culture, will be better protected, making it an important tourist attraction in the red Qiang township.

Sansheng Temple

In Pingnan Qiang township of Pingwu County, the Sansheng temple, the former site of the Soviet government in Pingnan County, established by the Fourth Front Army of the Red Army, is famous. As a county-level cultural relic protection unit, it has been recommended to apply for the national cultural relic protection unit recently because of its historical, artistic and scientific value. Pingnan Qiang township is located in the south of Pingwu County. From April to June 1935, the Fourth Front Army of the Chinese workers' and peasants' Red Army established the Soviet government of Pingnan County in Sansheng temple, hence the name of Pingnan County. Sansheng temple was originally composed of gate tower, front hall, back hall and wing rooms on both sides. It is a typical Chuandou temple building in Sichuan in Qing Dynasty. There are three huge white stones in the gatehouse. According to the speculation of cultural relics workers, Pingnan was originally inhabited by Qiang people, and the Qiang people had the custom of white stone worship. Later, they borrowed and absorbed the form of temple worship of Han people, and expressed the white stone worship of Qiang people in the form of temple worship of Han people. the Sansheng temple was built in 1903. After the founding of new China, the Sansheng temple was used by the production team and Pingnan primary school. In 1964, the main hall and back hall of the school were demolished, and the wing rooms on both sides of the stage were transformed, and now only the gatehouse is left.
