Standing at the ancient ferry port and looking back at the Ciqikou, the archway in the east of Ziqi to bring vitality to the ancient town of Ciqikou, is the ancient ferry port to promote the prosperity of Ciqikou. Ciqikou Ancient Ferry, located on the Jialing River, is a witness to the history of Ciqikou for thousands of years. It was formed between the Tang and Song Dynasties and flourished during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The Republic of China reached its great prosperity. In the 14th year of the Republic of China (1925), the National Government specially set up a hoarding ship and opened the route from Ciqikou to Guihuayuan. According to the records of the Republic of China "Baxian Zhi", "Longyin Town Water Road Interchange, extremely convenient boat, for the west of Chongqing" here as an important land and water pier on the Jialing River, the river is open, the water is stable, the ship is very convenient to dock, since ancient times is a natural port. The folk circulation of Ciqikou "thousand people in the daytime, thousands of bright lights after night". At that time, Ciqikou Pier, business travel, thousands of sails transit, number undulating, fishermen lights, ships shuttle, Shengqiang.

The ancient town of the mountain city is different. Although there are many people, the scenery on the mountain is really beautiful. The ancient town without a small bridge and flowing water is still beautiful.

Once "thousands of people arched in the daytime, thousands of bright lights after nightfall", prosperous. Bayan culture, religious culture, sand magnet culture, red rock culture and folk culture, each leading the style.

The earliest name of Ciqikou is Baiyan Field, which began in the Xianping years of Song Zhenzong (998-1003) because there was a Baiyan Temple named here. There are still many historical buildings in Ciqikou Ancient Town. Entering Ciqikou to pass the Huangqiping archway, which is the main gate of Ciqikou Ancient Town, plays the role of logo. On both sides of the archway, there is a pair of pairs of "thousands of people arching in the day, thousands of beacons at night", which is the handwriting of Zhu Mo, a local literati. Enter Ciqikou Main Street, through the bustling crowd, not far from the left is the Baoshan Palace at 128 Ciqikou Main Street. This is a historical building and immovable cultural relics. Baoshan Palace is a famous Taoist view of the nine palaces and eighteen temples of Ciqikou. It is a place for good men and women to pray for blessings and petitions. The architecture of Baoshan Palace is very close to the five-line concept of Taoist "gold, wood, water, fire, soil". The gate is not in the middle of the Taoist axis, but is biased to the southeast, facing the Jialing River, which is in line with the meaning of Taoist water and fire. Because the wooden house is afraid of fire, it is used to use water to ke it. The hospital has escaped the disaster many times. So far preserved. The patio of Baoshan Palace is wide and has a ladder-shaped. There is a worship platform of about 100 square meters. The good men and women of the past are all genial incense here. There is also an ancient well on the worship platform. The water in the well is called God's water. After the good men and women knelt here, they must drink God's water to purify their hands. Climbing 16 steps to the temple to make a wish, so that the only way to achieve. Although it is superstition, the customs at that time were true. During the Republic of China, Ciqikou set up a great movement to start a new school. Mr. Fan Zhonglin, who taught in Ciqikou, opened Baoshan Palace as Jialing Elementary School and served as the school's principal. During the war of resistance, Ding Zhaozhong's parents took refuge in Ciqikou. His father taught at Chongqing University and his mother taught at Ciqikou Sichuan Provincial Education College. He also studied here for 3 years. Now the government has opened the hospital as an education museum. A more systematic display of the outline of Shaqi Cultural Education. There is a statue in the hospital that is the scene of Ding Zhaozhong attending school here. The teaching aids used by the headmaster of Jialing Elementary School Fan Zhonglin and the classroom and seats used by Ding Zhaozhong at the time of reading are also displayed. Many people like to bring their children to Mr. Ding's seat and take a photo as a memorial. Now, Baoshan Palace is both an education museum and a tea culture museum. Ciqikou also has historical buildings such as Baolun Temple, Hanlinyuan, Zhongjiayuan, and Ciqikou Gudu. I couldn't go and see it. Stay for the next time.
