The First Gate of the Ancient City —— Literature Building

The Literature Building, located at the south gate 1km of the ancient city of Dali, is known as the first gate of the ancient city and is a landmark building of the ancient city of Dali.

It was founded in the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. The building has a plaque inscribed by Fu Yin of Yunnan Province in the 40th year of Kangxi (A.D. 170 1 year), hence the name of the Literature Building. On both sides of the plaque, there are long couplets written by Zhou Ren, a scholar in the Qing Dynasty: "Go back to the Han and Tang Dynasties, Zhang Shu passed on the classics, Du Gong gave lectures, and Shuo Yan learned Confucianism. Don't let the literary legacy fade out of the new fashion;" Climbing the stairs, you can see the sunset in Jiuling, the crane on the bridge road, and the joy of going to Xian 'an. I hope that the ancient Miao country will live in the world. "This time, the couplets introduced the ancient customs of Dali simply and clearly. There are couplets and anonymous "120 two cranes in the mountains and rivers" upstairs; Qian Qiu literature is stored on the first floor. "

There are also plaques such as "Literature Building" and "Nanzhao Old Capital". The east wall of the building is also inlaid with a stone tablet engraved with the words "Zhang Shusheng's hometown tour". It is said that Zhang Shusheng, a native of Dali in Han Dynasty, went out to study and was the earliest Chinese cultural communicator in Dali. These inscriptions and couplets are all about promoting Dali's outstanding people and spirit, so that foreigners can feel the wind of Dali culture before entering the city. The builders are quite ingenious.
