Exploring Xi Jinping’s Visit to the Ancient Shu Road: Historical and Cultural Inheritance and Ecological Civilization Construction

On the afternoon of the 25th, General Secretary Xi Jinping inspected the Cuiyunlang Ancient Shu Road in Guangyuan City, Sichuan Province to learn about the local promotion of historical and cultural inheritance and the strengthening of ecological civilization construction.

For thousands of years, the Shu Road, which is “difficult to go to the blue sky”, and the Jianmen Xiongguan, which is “one man guards the gate, ten thousand men cannot open it”, have attracted the attention of the world, and Li Bai and other poets of all dynasties have praised it.

This is a schematic diagram of the ancient Shu Road and the Jinniu Road displayed on the scene of Cuiyun Gallery.

Jianmen Shu Road was called Jinniu Road in ancient times. For thousands of years, many myths, legends and historical allusions, such as Wuding Kaishan and Jiang Weishouxian, have happened on this ancient road, which have been widely circulated up to now.

The Cuiyun Corridor, which was born alongside and interdependent with the Jianmen Shu Road, infiltrates the “green” imprint of a thousand-year history with another kind of quiet and heavy temperament.

“Who planted the two rows of ancient cypresses? Three hundred long distances and one hundred thousand trees. Cuiyun Corridor, protected by green smoke, moss and flowers shade rain and wet clothes, and Huike hanging leaves are cool and demeanor.” The poem is named after it.

In the Cuiyun corridor, the ancient cypresses are faint, and the cicadas are singing.

The Cuiyunlang Jiange section of the Shu Road takes the ancient city of Jianzhou as the center and is distributed in a herringbone shape in three lines, extending to Zhaohua in the north, Langzhong in the south, and Zitong in the west, with a total mileage of 151 kilometers.

There are 7,803 ancient trees in Cuiyun Corridor of Shu Road in Jianmen, including 7,778 ancient cypresses. The average age of ancient cypresses is 1,050 years. Road Wonders” and “Forest Living Fossils”.

The ancients planted cypresses on the roads of Shu, which can be traced back to the Qin Dynasty.

Since ancient times, there has been a tradition of planting and protecting cypresses along the Shu Road.

“Tang Huiyao” records that in the seventh month of the eighth year of Zong Dali (773) of the Tang Dynasty, the imperial edict: “All roads and official roads are not allowed to be cultivated or felled trees. They have official offices, which are filled by activities.”

According to the “Song Huiyao Collection Draft”, the imperial edict in the sixth year of Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty (1116): “All officials in the mountains and forests, those who log and log, have eighty sticks.”

The Ming Dynasty also issued a decree prohibiting officials and people from cutting trees; the Qing Dynasty also hung wooden signs and numbers on every ancient cypress.

Under the protection of past dynasties, the ancient cypresses in Cuiyunlang are full of vitality, lush and green.

Since the founding of New China, Jiange County has followed the ancient system of relay protection, inherited and carried forward the historical practice of “handover of officials leaving office”, and made the number and growth of ancient cypresses an important content of the handover of the main leaders of the county and township party and government and the scope of natural resources auditing one.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the local area has completed two resignation handovers of county magistrates and more than 20 resignation handovers of township (town) chiefs.

“One tree, one stall”, “one tree, one person”, “one tree, one policy”, and the concept of “planting cypresses and protecting cypresses” to protect the ecology are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

The secluded Green Cloud Corridor, spanning thousands of years, is as green as ever, just like the long history and perseverance of Chinese civilization.
