"Berlin Temple Day Tour: Encounter Tranquility and Zen".
As you enter Berlin Temple, the ancient architecture comes into view, with red walls and gray tiles, solemn and solemn. In the temple, the incense is curling, and the bell is melodious, as if telling a thousand-year-old story. Stroll on the bluestone path, feeling every inch of history under your feet.
The ancient trees in the courtyard are towering, with lush branches and leaves, adding a touch of vitality and mystery to this quiet place. The sunlight sprinkled through the gaps in the leaves, forming patches of light, like the brushstrokes of nature, drawing a tranquil picture.
A museum worth visiting to learn more about history.
In the 1990s, the accidental discovery of two large Qin tombs in Dabaozi Mountain, Lixian County, awakened the long-lost childhood memories of the Qin Empire.
Subsequent archaeological and research showed that the earliest capital of the Qin people, "Xichui", was located in the upper reaches of the Han River in Lixian County. Lixian County is the birthplace of the Qin people and Qin culture. Even after the Qin capital moved east to Guanzhong, Xichui, as the old capital of Qin, still played the role of a rear base.
The Qin people moved to southeastern Gansu from the end of the Shang Dynasty to the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, and the Qin Dynasty was destroyed in 207 BC, a history of more than 800 years.
The development of the Qin people in southeastern Gansu in the first 300 years is the beginning of the Qin Empire and has an important status. During these 300 years, the Qin people not only established their own country, but also received the support of the Zhou Dynasty. In 770 BC, they completed the transition from the Qin state to the Qin vassal state in Xichui, taking a key step in the development of Qin history.
At the same time, during these 300 years, the Qin people from the east, in the battle with the strong and warlike Xirong, forged their hardworking, brave and tenacious national character and the spirit of advocating force and pioneering and enterprising, and after absorbing and integrating Zhou culture and Xirong culture, formed the open, enterprising, inclusive and integrated Qin culture.
History has proved that the Qin people's operation in southeastern Gansu centered on the upper reaches of the Han River in Lixian County has created a solid material and cultural foundation for their eastward advancement to Guanzhong, and then to compete in the Central Plains and unify the country.

In Longnan!! Feel the shock of history
In Longnan!! Feel the shock of history
Qishan Fort, located in today's Qishan Town, Li County, Gansu Province, is an ancient battlefield site with a long history. It was also the place where Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, garrisoned when he left Qishan during the Three Kingdoms period.
Qishan Fort was built in the Western Han Dynasty and is located on the north bank of the Western Han River. It was an important battlefield in the long-term tug-of-war between the Shu Han and Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms period. With its pivotal position in the Longxi region, it could threaten the important towns of Cao Wei such as Tianshui and Longxi in the past, and it could control the vast Longnan mountainous area in the future.
Three Kingdoms Relics - Qishan Wuhou Shrine
♻️♻️ Qishan Wuhou Shrine, one of the nine major Wuhou shrines in the country, is located in Lixian, Longnan City, Gansu Province. It was the place where Zhuge Liang led troops to campaign against Wei during the Three Kingdoms period. It is famous for his 'six out of Qishan' exploits, although in actual history he only made two such expeditions 🏰🏰🏰
♻️♻️ The founding time of Qishan Wuhou Shrine is untraceable, and most of the existing buildings were constructed during the Ming and Qing dynasties 👌👌👌
✅✅ This place is rarely visited, full of pristine ecological vibes. Due to the lack of maintenance over the years, the grass at Qishan Fort Stele has grown lush, and the mysterious Bagua fields have been cut at one corner by a newly emerged small ditch, hopefully not disturbing the feng shui of the area 😝😝😝

⛩️⛩️ Address: Qishanbao, Qishan Township, Lixian, Longnan City, Gansu Province
🚙🚙 Transportation: Public transportation is complicated and indirect, self-driving is recommended
