Hello, everyone. Today we come to the first street of China - "three lanesand Seven Alleys", which is known as the "architectural museum of Ming and QingDynasties" and "living fossil of the system of lanes in the city", which are thelandmarks of Fuzhou, a famous historical and cultural city of China. In thefirst "selection of China's top ten historical and cultural blocks" announced inJune 20__, Sanfang Qixiang historical and cultural blocks, Beijing Guozijianstreet, Pingyao South Street, Harbin Central Street, etc. jointly participatedin the election, and won the honorary title of "China's top ten historical andcultural blocks" awarded by the Ministry of culture and the State Administrationof cultural relics with the highest votes.
In 202 BC, when Fuzhou City was first built, it was called "Yecheng". Theruler was Wu Zhu, a descendant of Gou Jian. After more than two hundred years,Fuzhou in the Western Jin Dynasty had a certain scale. Yan Gao, the firstprefect of Jin'an County, thought that the city was too small, so he built acounty city at the southern foot of Pingshan mountain, which is called"Zicheng". The three lanes and seven alleys originated from the expansion of thenew town by Wang Shenzhi, king of min in the late Tang Dynasty. When WangShenzhi was in power, he suspected that the original Zicheng was too small.Outside the Zicheng, he built "Luocheng" with coin pattern bricks. It is saidthat this was the only brick city in China at that time. The south of Luochengis bounded by the Antai river. The north of Luocheng is the political center,mostly inhabited by nobles. The south of Luocheng is the civilian residentialarea and commercial area. At this time, three lanes and Seven Lanes become animportant area in the southwest of Luocheng, and the pattern of lanes and lanesis initially formed.
Today's "three lanes and Seven Alleys" is located in the center of FuzhouCity, adjacent to bay17 North Road in the East, Tonghu road in the west,Yangqiao road in the north, Jibi lane and Guanglu square in the south, coveringan area of about 40 hectares. "Three Lanes" are: Yijin lane, Wenru lane andGuanglu lane; "Seven Lanes" are: Yangqiao lane, Langguan lane, Anmin lane, HuangLane, Ta lane, Gong lane and Jibi lane. With nanhou street as the central axis,they are arranged orderly from north to south, forming a "checkerboard" patternof traditional streets and lanes. In the process of urban change, Jibi lane,Yangqiao lane and Guanglu Lane have been transformed into roads. Therefore,today we talk about three lanes and seven lanes, but actually there are only twolanes and five lanes.
After many years, the pattern of "three lanes and Seven Alleys" remainsbasically the pattern of alleys left over from the Tang and Song dynasties.There are more than 200 well preserved buildings in the Ming and Qing Dynastiesand the Republic of China. Among them, there are 9 national key cultural relicsprotection units, such as Shuixie stage, Yan Fu's former residence and ShenBaozhen's former residence. It is the largest and most complete ancientarchitectural block of Ming and Qing Dynasties preserved in the city center ofChina. "Three lanes and Seven Alleys" embodies the characteristics of Minyueancient city and the unique characteristics of Fuzhou ancient houses. Thearchitectural structure and materials adapt to the humid and warm climate ofFuzhou; the courtyard layout reflects the traditional family ethics; the gardenis exquisite and elegant, reflecting the elegant taste close to the landscape,which is described as a large-scale "Museum of ancient architecture of Ming andQing Dynasties" by the architectural circles.
In addition to the architecture of Ming and Qing Dynasties, what is moreamazing is the cultural heritage of three lanes and seven alleys. Chen Yan, amodern poet, wrote a poem and said, "who knows that the five willows aresolitary pines, but they live in three lanes and seven alleys." Since theformation of Jin and Tang Dynasty, three lanes and seven lanes have been thesettlements of nobles and literati. Especially in the middle and late QingDynasty, Fuzhou scholars' inherent sense of concern for the country and thepeople was more intense in the changes of the world. There emerged a group ofpeople who had an important impact on the society at that time and the processof modern Chinese history. Lin Zexu, Shen Baozhen, Lin Xu, Yan Fu, Lin Juemin,Lin Shu, Lin Huiyin, Bing Xin, Lu Yin, Yu Dafu, Guo huaruo, Wu Shi Turning overthe history, you will be surprised to find that a large number of characters whoare surging up on the stage of modern China, their living backgrounds arereflected in the three lanes and seven alleys, with a remarkable number of morethan 150 people.
It can be said that three lanes and seven alleys have become the epitome ofFuzhou's human culture, which highlights the integration of Fuzhou people'spursuit of orthodox education and pioneering spirit of marine culture. As thegathering place of Fuzhou city spirit, the memorial place of Fuzhou Mingxianculture, the heritage place of Fuzhou traditional merchant culture, and theexhibition place of Fuzhou folk culture, Sanfangqixiang carries the richhistorical and cultural accumulation of Fuzhou city development, fully embodiesthe characteristics and value of material and intangible culture ofSanfangqixiang historical and cultural block, and is worthy of the name ofChina.
Each city has its own unique historical and cultural genes, and it shouldtreasure its own cultural heritage in the process of development. Fuzhou hasalso gone through detours. At the end of the last century, in the heat of oldcity reconstruction, three lanes and seven alleys faced the same danger of being"transformed". Fujian Province and Fuzhou City adjusted their thinking in timeand terminated the original renovation projects for real estate development. Inrecent years, Fujian provincial Party committee, Fujian provincial government,Fuzhou municipal Party committee and Fuzhou municipal government have attachedgreat importance to the protection and restoration of Sanfang Qixiang historicaland Cultural District, and put the protection and restoration of Sanfang Qixiangon the important agenda. The three lanes and seven alleys have been transformedfrom development and transformation to overall protection and restoration. Thegovernment investment has gradually increased, and the expenditure on protectionand restoration projects is mainly invested in people's livelihood. Thetransformation of the three lanes and seven alleys has not only become aprotection project of material culture and intangible culture, but also acomfortable housing project and popular project to improve people's livingconditions.
"Three lanes and seven alleys should become a living cultural heritage,"Shan Jixiang, director of the State Administration of cultural relics, gave ahigh evaluation to the renovation project. The value of Fuzhou's explorationlies in the protection of both life form and intangible cultural heritage. Therestored Sanfangqixiang is not a tourist area that excludes the original ecologyof the original residents, but a residential community with traditional culturalcharacteristics and a city vitality zone with unique cultural landscape. TangGuozhong, the CPC Fujian Provincial Committee and propaganda minister, saidwell: three lanes and seven alleys are the epitome of Fuzhou's gathering ofpeople and culture, and the living fossil of Fujian and Chinese Taiwan's deep origin.Her successful protection is not only the wealth of Fuzhou, but also the commonglory of the economic zone on both sides of the Chinese Taiwan Strait and the west coastof the Straits, which needs to be passed down from generation to generation.
