Chongyang Wanshou Palace was founded in Jin Dynasty, prospered in Yuan Dynasty, declined in Ming Dynasty, and was destroyed in Qing Dynasty. It is more than 800 years ago. The Great Ancestral Court (Baiyun Temple in Beijing, Yongle Palace in Shanxi, Chongyang Palace in Huxian County). In the Jin Dynasty, it was known as the "ancestral court of the world", and has always enjoyed the reputation of "the Holy Land of Quanzhen". It was named "Lingxu Guan" during Jin Zhangzong's reign, and "Da Chongyang Longevity Palace" by Emperor Shizu of Yuan Dynasty. In its heyday, the palace stretched from Laoyu River in the east, Baima River in the west, Qinling Mountains in the south, and Weishui River in the north. There were more than 5,000 halls and pavilions, and nearly 10,000 Taoist priests lived there. The Chongyang Palace gradually declined after the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the area of the palace courtyard decreased day by day. The existing Lingguan Hall and Qizhen Hall were rebuilt during the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty. There are more than 80 steles related to the history of Quanzhen School of Taoism preserved in Chongyang Palace, among which are the portrait steles of Wang Chongyang and Qizhen, the poem stele of "Wu Meng Ling" written by Wang Chongyang, and the "Da Dao" written by Zhao Mengfu, a calligrapher of the Yuan Dynasty. The Monument of Imperial Clothes Collected by the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty and the Monument of Daoism of Emperor Yuan Sun Zhenren, Wutong of the Imperial Decree Monument of the Yuan Dynasty Emperor in Han and Meng Hebi, and the Painting Monument of Zhong Kui Playing Ghosts by Wu Daozi of Tang Dynasty, thirty-eight of Zhengyi School of Ming Dynasty The "Tianxia Ancestral Court" stele on behalf of Tianshi Zhang Hecai has extremely high historical and cultural value. The overall architecture of Chongyang Palace still maintains the palace style of Ming and Qing Dynasties, and Taoist temples are arranged on the central axis according to Taoist regulations and the history of Chongyang Palace. The single building inherits the high platform style of the Yuan Dynasty, with a magnificent momentum, highlighting the sanctity and dignity of the Taoist ancestors, so as to satisfy Taoist believers at home and abroad to come to the ancestral court to worship. The east and west sides are divided into areas such as stele forest viewing, Chongyang Tomb worship, Enlightenment Hall, Jietai, Yangsheng Hall, and Taoist living areas. Together with beautiful mountains, rocks and waters, curved bridges, bamboo shadows, pines and ancient cypresses, and Penglai sunset, it forms a breathtaking landscape. Daydreaming fairyland on earth. Although today's Chongyang Palace does not have the splendor of the past, but with the characters and events in Jin Yong's martial arts novels "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", I believe you can find the sky of your imagination here.
