Guishan Academy is located at No. 1, Huixinzhong Street, Taoziyuan Community, Qiaodong Street, Huicheng District. It faces north and south, with an existing area of 35,964 square meters. Guishan Academy was first built in the first year of Taiding in Yuan Dynasty (1324) and was specially built to worship Confucius, also known as the Confucius Temple. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, it became the “educational talent” and was an important place for Guishan County to cultivate imperial examination talents.
The existing buildings of Guishan Academy are well preserved, with rich historical information and strong cultural connotations. It is not only a temple that respects Confucius and teaches future generations, but also a highest institution of learning and only official school for Guishan. It has opened the precedent of Guishan County’s talent cultivation and has also planted the seeds of respecting culture and education in the Dongjiang River Basin.
Guishan Academy is responsible for the educational functions of inheriting culture and performing rituals and music. The Academy holds a grand ceremony for worshipping Confucius every year. In ancient times, the purpose of building Confucius Temple was not only to worship Confucius’ Saint, but also to pray for cultural fortune and express expectations for cultural prosperity.
During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Guishan Academy was built 26 times and moved to the site three times. The main structure of the building not only preserves the architectural style of the Ming Dynasty, but also integrates the architectural characteristics of the Qing Dynasty. It has superb craftsmanship and a strong Lingnan architectural style. It is the oldest hall in Huizhou. It is now a precious physical material for studying ancient buildings. In the Ming Dynasty, the Guishan Academy was built with Lingxing Gate, Jimen, Panchi, Jiashan Pond, Loyalty and Filial Piety Temple, Famous Official Temple, Township Sage Temple, Qingyun Pavilion, Wenchang Pavilion, etc. Now only the Jimen and the Temple of the Xianshi built in the 41st year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1613).
Huang Family Library
During the Qing Dynasty, the Huang clan moved from Fujian to Huizhou, and Cinema to reproduce and develop in Huizhou.It grew stronger. During the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, the Huang clan members built the Huang clan’s ancestral hall. Later, in order to facilitate the food and accommodation of Huang’s children who came to Huizhou to take the exam, the Huang’s Ancestral Hall was renamed “Huang’s Study Room”.
The Huang family’s study has three rooms wide and three deep, and is a typical Ming and Qing ancestral hall building. In July 2005, under the principle of “restored the original appearance and preserved the current situation”, Huang’s study room was opened as the “Dongjiang Folk Cultural Relics Museum”, which was repaired as a whole and was a special folk cultural relics museum in Huizhou City.
“A man wants to fulfill his life’s ambition, read the six classics diligently in front of the window”, stepped into the gate of the Dongjiang Folk Cultural Relics Museum, a simple picture of Dongjiang Folk History slowly unfolded, and there are couplets engraved on both sides of the gate, “The first place in the achievements of good deeds, and the family is unparalleled in filial piety and friendship”, showing the ideals and ambitions of a family to the world. Babaylan
The museum displays more than 20,000 cultural relics with the imprint of Huizhou’s local culture, connecting the footprints of life of ancestors who are constantly seeking and rushing up and down, allowing every person with a heart who stops and looks at it to experience the simple and rich folk customs of the local people, and feel the inherited and endless Dongjiang culture.
The moment I stepped out of the door, the endless stream of people was busy, and the West Lake under the green trees was as elegant as a painting, which complemented the four words “Sky Open Picture” on the door. Culture is the mirror of history, and history is the carrier of culture. For Huang’s study, the appearance of the study is changing, and the demand for it by the times is also changing.
BabaylanFrom sacrificing ancestors to the convenience of test-taking children, and then to the display of Dongjiang folk customs, the historical roles of Huang’s study have been repeatedly switched. The only thing that remains unchanged is that as long as its living space is still there, it will never stop telling the world about the ups and downs along the way.
