public housing census found the Dragon Temple
in early March this year, the housing authority of the housing authority of Lixia District launched a census of the public housing in the area. Wang Baozhi, Secretary of the Housing Authority, told reporters that they found a cultural relic hidden in Furong street, the Dragon God Temple. "The Dragon Temple is on the west side of the Wangfu pool, but it's hard to see it from the outside. Although some old Ji'nan also remember the Dragon Temple in the Furong street, but where many people don't know." Wang Baozhi said that the Dragon Temple in the same year was very fragrant, it was sitting north to the south, and the entrance to the gate was a stone tablet about 5 meters high and about 1 meters wide, around the stone monument, and a big hall on the north side of the courtyard, very majestic. In those days, the dragon temple was the same as Confucious'temple and Guan Yu Temple, but both Confucious' temple and Confucious'temple were restored, but the dragon temple was still hidden in a mess of buildings.
the Dragon Temple has changed into the "Gym"
in the afternoon, the reporter came to the south side of the Wang Fu pool, a pile of swimmers outside the fence, and there was an old old building on the west side of the spring pool, but where did it go in? A reporter asked a resident in the southwest corner of the spring pool. An aunt told reporters that he couldn't get in from here. There was no way to pass the road or family. Then the reporter followed the path to a courtyard on the south side of the building. There was a brick house on the south side of the courtyard, which looked very old. Aunt Li is 77 years old this year. She lived here for more than thirty years. She heard that reporters were looking for the Dragon Temple, and the reporter was led into a bedroom. Through the window, the reporter saw a pointed roof, and the old green house, Aunt Li said, "that is the Dragon God Temple."
but the real body of the Dragon Temple is not in this courtyard, surrounded by modern houses built in disorder, surrounded by the Dragon Temple. Someone told reporters that you could enter the Dragon God Temple from the right wing hotel in Furong street. The reporter went on to the sea right hotel, the staff were very enthusiastic, heard the intention of the reporter, took the reporter to see the Dragon Temple, but entered the reporter's eye, but it was a fully modernized gym. "We have all decorated, we can not see the original look, you see the column, inside or the original old post, all of the outside of the modern material, only the ceiling some hollow, you can also see the Dragon Temple carved color decorative beams." The reporter noticed that there was a large air conditioner on the modern ceiling, so the dragon temple was gone.
the glorious moment of Lu embroidery group from the Dragon Temple out of
Aunt Li is a retired worker of Ji'nan embroidery factory, which has been in it for more than thirty years, and is full of feelings to Lu embroidery. "I was 20 years old to study embroidery, when a nun was teaching everyone, then I entered the embroidery factory, the scenery, the characters, all embroidered, and often to the field when teachers teach embroidery." Aunt Li said.
Li Ming, director of the Ji'nan Archaeological Research Institute, told reporters that the Dragon God Temple was built in the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty. During the cultural revolution, the statue in the temple was taken away without knowing where to go. The Dragon Temple is a cultural relic, but it is not a legal key to protect the cultural relics. Three or four years ago, he had gone to see the roof of the Dragon Temple collapsed, the departments concerned were in repair, but there was no good way to change the roofs of asbestos tiles to temporarily protect them. The restoration of dragon temple has to wait for Ming Fu city to rebuild. "After liberation, in response to the call of the government, nuns who worship Buddhist temples in the temple of Dragon God also want to work. Under the proposal of a nun, they form a embroidery group. In 1951, the Dragon Temple of Furong Street opened an embroidery learning class, the later Ji'nan embroidery factory, when they also made an embroidered pajamas for prime minister Zhou Enlai, and the prime minister returned a letter to them personally and thanked them for their encouragement. Later, the embroidery group grew into a Ji'nan embroidery group. Aunt Li told reporters that without the Dragon Temple, there would be no later Lu embroidery group.
