geographical environment
More than 460 meters above sea level, Jintai mountain stands majestically at the entrance of Jintai town. Jintai mountain, formerly Jiulong Mountain, belongs to Nanchong Longquan Mountain range. There are nine peaks, the main peak of which is dangerous. The ridge extends thousands of meters away with the trend of the mountain, which is similar to the dragon body. People can reach the top of the mountain only by climbing hundreds of rugged stone stairs straight from the front of the mountain. The mountains are beautiful with beautiful forests and deep beauty. The cliffs are dangerous. Standing at the top of the mountain, you can see the peak and temple of Qingquan Temple thirty miles away.
Related ancient tombs
There are two ancient tombs at the foot of Longwei peak (Yuntai Mountain), which are carved from the rock wall. There is little difference in the shape of cliff tombs. There are gate, passage and chamber. There is a coffin platform in the chamber and a niche on the wall. The roof is flat and dome. Tombs are generally 3 meters long, 2.4 meters wide and about 1.8 meters high. The tombs are connected. This cliff tomb group is now seriously damaged due to its long age. There are no funerary objects or remains in the tomb.
towering old tree
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the distance of one mile from the head to the end of Jintai farm was lush with trees. The villagers were proud of the eight old Pueraria trees on the farm. Before liberation, the trees were cut down in the field, and then there were two kudzu trees that were not cut down. When I was young, I asked my grandfather about the age of these two trees. My grandfather told me that when he was young, these Huangge trees had grown into trees surrounded by ten meters high, with luxuriant branches and leaves. The roots of the trees were very deep, and the roots of one of them had already coiled to the guild hall field tens of meters away. (my grandfather was born in 1918) the specific age of the two trees that have survived so far is unknown.
There are many temples
There are eight temples in Jintai (Longevity Palace, Yuwang palace, Mengcheng palace, Jinsi temple, Longshen temple, Dongjia temple, Xiaojia temple, Zhanggong Temple). Among the Eight Temples in Jintai, Wanshou Palace and Yuwang Palace are the most magnificent. The temples are solemn and magnificent. In front of Yuwang palace, there are four 9-meter-high Panlong pillars carved with bluestone, which are majestic and majestic. The two palaces cover an area of 22456 square meters.
Wanshou Palace and Yuwang palace were built in 1656, the 13th year of Shunzhi. The temple buildings are combined with wood and stone structure, mainly with wood structure, supplemented by bluestone column walls.
There are 18 courtyards in front of and behind the two palaces, each of which has halls, halls, rooms, houses, corridors, etc. Its appearance is simple. The pillars, brackets, doors, windows and walls of the temple are earth red.
The temple is carved with wood carvings. The images are full and vigorous. The martial arts statues of Arhats with different postures are lifelike. The strokes of the stone carvings are jumping, the strokes are thick, the bone strength is strong, and the strokes are sharp. They are mainly Li, but also full of changes. Some are as fast as fierce waves, some are as slow as flowing water.
In 1930, the two palaces were transformed into Jintai school. Other temples were destroyed in the early 1950s, and monks returned to the secular life. In the "Cultural Revolution", the temple relief, arhat martial arts statues, inscriptions, couplets, poetry screens, plaques, starlings and four pillars were more seriously damaged. None of them had a complete image, and more than half of the temples were demolished. After the "Cultural Revolution", the martial arts arena of Yuwang palace was changed into xiliubazi, the martial arts platform of Luohan was changed into Chuanxi stage, and other temples later became the safekeeping rooms of production teams and village collective houses, which were demolished and rebuilt one after another. After the Wanshou Palace was demolished in 1986, the main teaching building of Jintai primary school was built on the original site. In 1997, the campus was expanded. Yuwang palace was completely demolished in 1997. So far, all the temples in Jintai have completely disappeared.
Shunqing uprising site
According to the county annals, Liu Bocheng personally commanded the "Shun Lu uprising". After a day of fierce fighting in Shunqing, the rebel army withdrew from Shunqing city because of the defeat of the "Shun Lu uprising". On December 15, 1926, the rebel army retreated to jintaichang in the mountain area of Shunqing North Road. The general headquarters was set up at a rice field at the lower entrance of jintaichang to hold a combat meeting. Later generations proposed that this field should be called "guild hall field". So far, there are still bluestone walls around the guild hall field. (the guild hall field is now next to the primary school in Jintai town) at that time, the volunteers lived in the Longevity Palace and the Yuwang palace was restored. The front observation post and commanding point are set in Zhangye temple, where the whole area of Jintai can be observed.

They were Luo tianwu, Zhao Fengwen, montberlain, Dong Renbao, Peng Gaoyuan, Feng Changliang, and six martyrs died in the war of resistance against Japan.
The ancient town of Jintai, the north gate of Nanchong, the hometown of heroes and the place where people gather, can not be forgotten by the world.
Historical landscape
It's not just a legend
Meng Yonghong, our reporter Chen sisi
The car drove out of Nanchong City, all the way north, past Shexi Town, about 10 minutes later to Jintai Town, Shunqing district. This ancient town has a history of more than 400 years, and many legends are still handed down today.
Dig out an inkstone made of gold
In a teahouse in the town, I heard from some octogenarians that Jintai Town, formerly known as hanjiachang, was built in the Ming Dynasty and located in dongjiayuan village, 1km east of today's town. Zhang Xianzhong, the leader of the peasant uprising army in the late Ming Dynasty, once led the army to fight here, so Han Jiachang was destroyed in the war in the late Ming Dynasty.
At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, when Huguang filled Sichuan, a large number of immigrants moved in and Han Jiachang needed to be rebuilt. Considering that the original hanjiachang was built on a high hill and it was inconvenient to get water, local officials rebuilt it in 1818 by selecting a flat dam 1 km away from hanjiachang. There is abundant underground water here. If the well is dug, there will be springs. Among them, there are black springs, which gush all the year round and never dry up in case of severe drought. It was under this black spring that a gold inkstone was dug out during the reconstruction, so Han Jiachang was renamed jintaichang. In 1910, the town was set up as a farm, so there was "Jintai town".
It is impossible to find out whether there is a gold inkstone in Jintai, but it is true that gold was once produced there. Under the leadership of the villagers, the reporter saw a lot of artificially excavated holes in luopanshan and yaojinshan near the town. The villagers called them "Jindongzi". Most of these holes are deep and bottomless. There are holes in them, extending in all directions.
The 18 courtyard family temples are magnificent. At the entrance of jintaichang Town, Jintai mountain stands majestically at an altitude of 460 meters. According to the local old people, there were temples and Taoist temples on the top of the nine hills of Jintai mountain, and there were eight temples in the town, such as Longevity Palace and Yuwang palace.
Among them, Wanshou Palace and Yuwang palace, which were built in 1656, are most missed by the old people. The two temples cover an area of more than 20000 square meters, and the houses and courtyards are adjacent to each other, forming a huge ancient architectural complex. The wooden structure of the building, bluestone column walls, earth red doors and windows, looks solemn and majestic. "Before and after a total of 18 courtyards, each courtyard has a hall, hall, room, house, corridor and so on." Said the old men.
"At that time, there were a lot of wood carvings in the temple," said Li Guolin, a retired teacher of Jintai primary school. The main contents were landscapes, trees and drama stories, with the Three Kingdoms stories the most. Maybe the local people like the generals of the Three Kingdoms. For example, Guan Yu, the general of Shu, was worshipped in Wanshou Palace, while Zhang Fei was worshipped in Zhangye temple.
Dozens of temples in Jintai were destroyed in the early 1950s. In 1997, Yuwang palace was demolished. Li Guolin told reporters that when it was demolished, people found a plaque on the beam, which described in detail the whole process of the construction of Wanshou Palace and Yuwang palace. According to the contents of "Rao, Huang, Yu, Lai" and "Ganzhou club" engraved on the plaque, Wanshou Palace and Yuwang Palace should be the family temples built by the four surnames of "Rao, Huang, Yu, Lai" at that time, and these four surnames were probably moved to Jintai from Jiangxi and other places when "Huguang filled Sichuan".
The ancient street of chuandouqingwafang
The town still has an ancient street less than 5 meters wide and more than 1000 meters long.
On both sides of the ancient street are mostly green tile houses of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, which are of the structure of Chuandou. The beams are connected by rivets, and the columns are connected with each other
