China Gansu network December 16th, according to Lanzhou evening news report (reporter Liu Xuezhi / map) December 14th, Lanzhou retired staff and workers holding the ancient reconstruction model of the Dunhuang Grand Buddha Temple, formally facing the local media in Dunhuang, Narrating the original intention and the process of doing this vast project.

"the great Buddhist temple is the largest temple at that time in Dunhuang city. It was founded in the Wei and Jin period, and has a history of about 2000, it is the same time of Mogao Grottoes, it occupies an important position in the hearts of the people of Dunhuang." Nowadays, there are not many people who know, and the eighty or ninety year old will have some memories. A chance, I saw an article written by Wei Jinping, director of the Dunhuang library, about the great Buddhist temple in Dunhuang. According to the data and pictures in the article, the ancient building group of the great Buddhist temple was made by the proportion of 1 to 100. For this reason, I stayed in Dunhuang for half a year, and I consulted Mr. Zhang Zhong, a 88 year old Dunhuang literary and historical expert, for three times before I finally finished it. Yang Hongwei told reporters.
as a born and growing person in Dunhuang, Yang Hongwei had a deep affection for Dunhuang from childhood to Dunhuang culture and art. There are many ancient buildings in the history of Dunhuang, but most of them are destroyed. Dunhuang is a world famous cultural city, but only the culture does not see the city. Having learned this, he used his expertise in sculpture, and taught himself the art of ancient architecture and devoted himself to the restoration of ancient architecture in Dunhuang.
wish: Dunhuang Confucious'temple, temple, Jinhua temple and other old buildings will be accurately restored to
55 years old, a retired worker from Lanxin group, Lanzhou, who graduated from Hebei arts and crafts school in his early years. Since then, he has been working and living in Lanzhou, and has been engaged in the design and manufacture of Arts and crafts for a long time. Yang Hongwei, who was born in Dunhuang, had a deep affection for Dunhuang. After retiring in 2000, he spent more than 10 years making over a dozen antique buildings and works of art in Dunhuang. In 2007, he lasted for a year, and restored the ancient architectural complex of the Crescent Spring. Seeing the lifelike recovery model in front of him, the Dunhuang people were stunned by his dexterous hands. In 2008, the field art desert camel, designed and made for the Dunhuang West Lake National Nature Reserve, became a landmark building in protected areas and was touted. In 2007, he made a series of relief works, such as "the Silk Road ancient road", made by a four star hotel in Dunhuang, and made the first use of the "drawing bottom separation method", which has achieved great success. As he worked hard to study the art of sculpture and ingeniously merged it with the cultural elements of Dunhuang, he became more and more popular in the circle, looking for more and more units and individuals to do the arts and crafts. In 2009, he made the embossed "Qingming Riverside" reliefs and the Dunhuang frescoes.
talk about future plans, Yang Hongwei said, he will be the original Confucious'temple, the temple of Dunhuang, the temple of golden flower and other old buildings to accurately recover, and want to do a personal art exhibition, the works done in recent years are concentrated.
"he did a great thing in restoring the cause of ancient culture in Dunhuang. He is using his hands to restore our memory of Dunhuang city." Mr. Zhang Zhong, an expert on Dunhuang's history and history, said.
