Early on Sunday morning, call friends and start the Yangyuan tracing activity again.
At breakfast, I heard that Yunqi and Momiji found a pier not far from the hotel, so everyone was interested and came here as the first stop.
600 meters south-west of Aopu Hotel, a pier, beacon tower in Xicheng Town, Hebei Provincial Cultural Relics Protection Unit.
It is very strange that although the beacon tower is a provincial-level cultural relics protection unit, it has not been included in the resources of the Great Wall, that is, it has not been included in the Great Wall system.

The seat of Yangyuan County is Xicheng Town, there used to be an ancient castle, and now there are no traces.
On the north side outside the county, there is a new Dajue Temple.
Dajue Temple, commonly known as Xida Temple, was originally located in the northwest corner of the old city of Yangyuan County, built in the seventh year of Yuan Taiding (1330), rebuilt in the fourth year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1647), most of the temple buildings were destroyed in the war during the Liberation War, and the new site was selected for reconstruction in 2009. The new Dajue Temple covers an area of 100 acres, the central axis is symmetrical, there are the Tianwang Palace, the Daxiong Treasure Palace, the Tibetan Scripture Building, the Abbot Building, the Bell Tower, the Drum Tower, the Archway, the Garan Palace, the Patriarch Palace, the Five View Hall, the Guest Hall, the Buddha Hall and other ancillary buildings, and there is a big stage outside the temple.
The monks in the Dajue Temple today are nuns, and it is also the lower courtyard of the Wutai Mountain Zhulin Temple.
Although the temple has been built for more than ten years, the overall project has not yet been completed, and the incense does not seem to be prosperous.

The northwest corner of Zhujiazhuang Village, a pier, Zhujiazhuang beacon tower, Hebei Province cultural relics protection unit.
The big pier is majestic, and there are traces of the royal wall around it, and the courtyard wall is built today to protect.
Erect a monument in front of the pier, in the name of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty to promote the cultural relics protection unit of Hebei Province, but the strange thing is that it is not included in the resources of the Great Wall, that is, it is not included in the Great Wall system.

On the west side of the middle of Xixinzhuang Village, an old fort, the wall is multi-whole, 180 meters long from north to south, 165 meters wide from east to west, a main street in the middle of the north and south, four alleys across the east and west, and the whole fort city is divided into a chessboard-like pattern of four pieces in the east and west. Now all the residents in the castle have moved out, and the houses and courtyards are silent and desolate under the wind and sun, and the west and south sides of the castle are the river beaches.
According to reports, Xixinzhuang was first formed in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty (1573-1620), Qu and Xue first came to settle down, and was once named Chongxinbao and Xinzhuang Fort, and later renamed Xixinzhuang. According to the "General Chronicles of Chahar Province", the village was "built in the Ming Dynasty." It is still complete. East gate one, there is a word on the door hole: Chongxin Fort. Yoharada was given the name of Xinzhuang Fort. ”
Field observation, the fort gate seems to be open in the middle of the south side, a small courtyard in the northwest corner of the south gate, a small temple on the north side, and a small stage on the south side.

Two kilometers southwest of Xixinzhuang, two forts stand side by side, one on the east side is slightly larger, one is a willow camp fort in the east, and one is slightly smaller in the west, one is a willow camp fort in the west.
Liuyingbao Village is therefore composed of two natural villages, one Liuying Village in the east and one Liuying Village in the west. The two forts are 60 meters apart, and the two villages are basically connected.
The two forts are basically vacant, and a few households have not yet moved out, a dilapidated and withered image.
The site of Liuying Fort in the east and the site of Liuying Fort in the west are both cultural relics protection units in Yangyuan County, and there are cultural monuments erected in front of the castle.
The east fort is 170 meters long from east to west, 115 meters wide from north to south, the north side of the east side, the north side and the north section of the west side of the wall are many remaining, the four corner piers and each side of each side are huge and thick, open the south gate, there is no existence.
The west fort is 125 meters long from east to west, 80 meters wide from north to south, the east side, the north side and the west side wall wall are many remaining, the south side is partially lost, the four corner piers and each side of each side are huge and thick, open the south gate, there is no existence.
There is a beacon tower on the north side between the two forts, which is damaged in the shape of a sharp cone, and the top is covered with grass, and it looks like a small green hat from a distance. It is also puzzling that there is no such pier in the Great Wall resource survey.
Although there were not many residents in the castle, it is revealed from the broken houses and tiles that they were all mansions and nobles in those years, and it is difficult that only the landlord and the old wealth can afford to live in the castle. Feng Shui reincarnates, and today only the most difficult families have not moved out of the fort walls.

More than 2,000 meters east of Shuangbao, on the west side of Xigouyan Village, a pier, Xigouyan beacon tower, the beacon pier is upright, the royal wall is complete, and there is no omission in the Great Wall resource survey this time.

To the south, the willow soap fort did not keep us, the two adjacent beacon towers on the west side did not let us stop, and the small fort that may exist in the township of Yaojiazhuang is not in the scope of our visit, and we came directly to Dongzuipo Village, and even a remnant fort here We are not interested, just want to see the Xingfu Temple here.
Xingfu Temple is the old site of the new building, the beginning of the construction of the age can not be verified, from the existing two ancient stone tablets can be known in the Ming Hongzhi 16 years (AD 1503) to repair the main hall, with the hall, in the Qing Tongzhi five years (AD 1866) to repair the temple and the bell and drum tower. The temple was demolished in the sixties of the last century, and in 2004 it was rebuilt, and it is still in the statue.

In the past two days, I have crossed the Sanggan River several times during the tour, and this time I will go here again, stop and take a look, this is the upstream section of the Yongding River, the mother river of Beijing.
The Yongding River is also a river that I want to walk or ride in my heart, but I only rode once, and the journey was 80 kilometers, which can only be regarded as a small start.
Sanggan River, formerly known as Sanggan River, is said to be named after the river dries up every year when the mulberries are ripe. In ancient times, it was called Luoshui, which is the upper reaches of the Yongding River and an important tributary of the Haihe River, located in the northwest of Hebei Province and the north of Shanxi Province. The upper source of the Sanggan River is the Yuanzi River and the Hui River in Shanxi Province, generally with the Hui River as the main source, and the two rivers are called the Sanggan River after confluence near Shuozhou. After the confluence of the Yang River between Zhuguantun and Jiahe Village in Huailai County, Hebei Province, after passing through the Guanting Reservoir, it begins to be the Yongding River, which is 506 kilometers long.
The Sanggan River Basin is the birthplace of human civilization in the Shanxi-Hebei border area, cultivating the ancient civilization represented by the Yangyuan Nihewan culture, and is also known as the cradle of human civilization. The Sanggan River is also reflected in many literary works, the most famous being Ding Ling's "The Sun Shines on the Sanggan River".
The Sanggan River in Yangyuan has a straight flow of about 80 kilometers, a curved flow of 104 kilometers, and a basin area of 1,777 square kilometers. Due to the gentle terrain, the river meanders and sways, like a light yarn dance, showing a graceful and colorful state.

The southern edge of the small basin of Yangyuan is the remaining vein of Heng Mountain, there was the Vulture Temple in the front half of the mountain, it was named because it was located in the Eagle Peak Ridge, the temple has not existed now, only the remaining Vulture Temple Tower, it is the national key cultural relics protection unit.
The brief introduction of the Vulture Temple Pagoda on the Wenbao Tablet is: The temple tower was built in the first year of Tang Zhen (785-805). The temple was destroyed early, and a brick tower was built in the existing Jin Yuan period. During the Qing Dynasty (1851-1861), the tower body was partially repaired, and the tower foundation was strengthened in 1996. The temple tower is 25 meters high, and is composed of three parts: the tower base, the tower body, and the tower stop. The brick octagonal Sumeru-style tower is decorated with high-relief floral motifs and Buddhist shrines at the girdle. The upper and lower fangs and owls of the Sumeru seat are made of heavy layers of upturned lotus petals. The shape of the tower of the Vulture Temple is unique, and the upper part of the covered bowl, the phase wheel and the tower sha account for nearly half of the total height of the whole tower. It combines the characteristics of Han and Tibetan pagodas, and is a special type of existing ancient pagodas, which is a precious physical example of the diverse history and culture of Zhangjiakou area. On March 5, 2013, it was announced by the State Council as the seventh batch of national key cultural relics protection units.
The temple does not exist, and even traces are difficult to find, but there are many stone tablets and stele pedestals.

Someone sent a photo to write their impressions, calling a beacon tower in Touqi Village a sphinx in Yangyuan, and we immediately rushed here if we were interested.
This huge pier has a small temple on the top. The shape of this pier is peculiar, and it should obviously be a beacon pier, but it is not included in the Great Wall resource survey, and there is no cultural protection sign at the site. On the south side of the pier, the low-lying river beach has faint traces of the city wall.
On the north side of this pier, there is a steel sculpture statue of Sangganhe National Wetland Park in Yangyuan, Hebei Province.

Along the way, I feel that there are not a few omissions or errors in Yangyuan County in the Great Wall resource survey, such as a beacon tower in the south of Xiaoyanchang Village, a beacon tower in Xibaijiaquan Village, and a beacon tower in the west of Jituan Village, not to mention those castles.

The last stop, Nihewan National Archaeological Site Park, is just a check-in.
Nihewan is one of the earliest human birthplaces in the world, and there are 30 early human cultural sites that have been found in China for more than 1 million years, of which 25 are in Nihewan sites, mainly located in the area on both sides of the Sanggan River in Yangyuan County.
The Nihewan site group is the most important Paleolithic site in North China, and is a classic area and typical material for studying the origin and evolution of human beings in East Asia. Since its discovery in 1921, more than 300 sites have been discovered from the middle of the Early Pleistocene to the end of the Late Pleistocene, recording the continuous evolution history of East Asian humans in the past 2 million years, and is known as the "hometown of oriental humans".
On June 25, 2001, the Nihewan site group was approved by the State Council as a national key cultural relics protection unit, on July 2, 2002, it was approved by the State Council as a national nature reserve, and in October 2005, it was included in the national "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" site protection project.
The Nihewan National Archaeological Site Park was built at the site of Xiaochangliang, and there is also a Nihewan Museum in Yangyuan County.
