Endangered protection of caves in northern Shaanxi

With the strong support of Yan 'an Municipal Party Committee, Municipal Government, Baota District Committee and District Government and the active efforts of folk cultural figures, great achievements have been made in the collection, arrangement and research of caves in northern Shaanxi, but some problems still need to be paid attention to.

(1) Historical development and social progress. With the further development of the west, modern high-rise buildings keep pace with the times, a large number of earth caves are abandoned, and interface kilns begin to "retire". Stone kilns and brick kilns flourished.

(2) Due to its long history, it has been seriously eroded by wind and rain. Therefore, some historical cave sites have also been damaged to varying degrees. (1) Yan 'an has built the world's largest cave building complex-Yan 'an Cave Hotel. It will play a great role in the inheritance and protection of caves in northern Shaanxi.

(2) The cave building complex of Yan 'an University was built in 1970s, which was seriously eroded by wind and rain, and is now being rebuilt. After reconstruction, the cave group has maintained its original features, consisting of more than 200 caves in six rows, and will become a patriotic education center.

(three) the maintenance and repair of Yan 'an Zaoyuan and Yang Jialing Revolutionary Site.

(4) Maintenance and repair of "Three Gardens" of Mizhi.

In 2007, the government allocated a special fund of 654.38 million yuan to protect the intangible cultural heritage of Baota District. Strengthen the protection of caves in northern Shaanxi. Mainly to protect the historical sites and caves in northern Shaanxi. Let the people of northern Shaanxi have a deeper understanding of their caves, and let foreign tourists love the "farm yard" more and love the hardworking and kind people of northern Shaanxi more. Develop the tourism resources of "Three Gardens" in Mizhi and build the brand of "Three Gardens" in Mizhi.

1 As the saying goes, "Man is the last tree in the kiln", and the careful care of the owner keeps these houses original. In the sense of maintaining its original form, it creates good conditions for the development of humanistic tourism resources.

2. The surrounding environment is rich in contrast. Du Fu Earth Kiln in Qiang Village, Fuxian County, Zhidan Red Sandstone Kiln, Liuba 'an along the vault of the Great Wall Beam, Yan 'an University, Mizhi Middle School, cave dwelling in the former site of Yulin Agricultural School, brick-topped Fugu Qixing Temple ethnic fusion dome, Wantong version of building technology, etc. All these have paved the way and set off the tourism development of Mizhidong.

3. Humanistic tourism resources are rich in connotation. Residential building is a century-old plan. There have always been many customs that emphasize harmony. Including site selection, orientation, auspicious day for foundation laying, size of doors and windows, interior decoration, kiln closure in Longkou and kiln warming, all pay attention to "Feng Shui".

4. Modern interpretation of Han stone reliefs. The earthen kiln in northern Shaanxi is the inheritance of "Futao pottery kiln", but as a stone arch kiln, its concrete template can at least be confirmed by the stone arch modeling of Han tombs in northern Shaanxi. A large number of Han Dynasty stone reliefs have been unearthed in northern Shaanxi, with rich contents and exquisite carving skills, which are rare in the world. The developed technology made Mizhi win the emblem of "Slate County", and the stone arch kiln was built with "buildings without architects". From the overall composition to the detailed carving of stone components such as stone lions, doorpiers and overhangs, it completely relied on the vision of masons and the "hammer workers" in their hands, which is actually the inheritance and development of Khan relief stones with a history of 2,000 years.

5. The future significance of ecological environment. Cave dwelling belongs to the underground space building type. Because it is warm in winter and cool in summer, it does not occupy or occupy less cultivated land, does not destroy the ecological environment, saves materials and energy, has low cost, and has good fire prevention, earthquake resistance, radiation prevention and soldier attack prevention performance, so it has the future significance of ecological architecture. Cave dwellings will not only disappear, but also shine brilliantly!

6. Concentrated scenic spots and convenient transportation. The above three cave settlements are located on several ditches and forks more than ten kilometers east of Mizhi City, and there are highways leading to scenic spots. Mizhi is located at the intersection of National Highway 2 10. With the opening of train passenger service, the three caves have a certain number of tourists. Taking Mizhi City as the center, it forms a small triangle of caves, Han stone reliefs, Thousand Buddha caves, palaces and revolutionary culture in Li Zicheng, and a big triangle of Yulin, Baiyun Mountain, Mizhi and Tongwancheng with Yulin as the center. In addition, the tour of Buddhist temples and folk art is also quite rich.
