Read history and know the present, the history and humanities of Guangxi, and the introduction of the history of less-known local chronicles and history, welcome to follow!
The vigorous Taiping Heavenly Kingdom movement officially broke out in 1851, and finally in 1864, only fourteen years ago. Due to the historical environment at that time and the current study of the movement of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom , the nature of the movement has its own opinions in different eras.
Whether it is positive or negative, all kinds of humanistic stories about the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom have been talked about. The little past of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom figures in various places are generally recorded by the local cultural content, either commemorating, or as propaganda elements and key points, becoming one of the local historical business cards.
"Soul of Heaven" relief
Guiping As the explosion site, it naturally pays more attention to the humanistic history of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. At least in the years before the outbreak of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom movement, several major figures of the Heavenly Kingdom had activities in Guiping, and some influential events occurred here. Among many old brothers in Guangxi, there were also many Guiping natives.
Therefore, the humanistic content of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom movement has some imprints in Guiping. Today, it is also one of the labels of Guiping’s humanistic. That’s why it is easy to see some things with Taiping Heavenly Kingdom elements in Guiping that are publicized to the outside world.
Now Guiping is the most famous memorial place with the theme of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom movement. There are two larger ones, both of which are in Jintian Town , one is Jintian Yingpan , and the other is the Jintian Uprising Museum.
There are many others, such as in Guiping City, Guiping Museum, where the local historical and cultural context is displayed, there is a special section introducing the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom; on Yingbin Avenue, there is also the slogan "The hometown of the Heavenly Kingdom, the blessed land of Guiping"; on Beijiang Park, there is also a series of knowledge propaganda corridors for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom movement. . . etc.
No matter what, these Taiping Heavenly Kingdom cultural elements are said to be urban propaganda or urban display, because the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is an important historical event that happened in Guiping. Now, they are all considered to be memorial.
In fact, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom memorial buildings or cultural displays of Guiping are now slowly built after the 1980s. But really, on the Guiping land, there have been many real monuments in the past century.
What I saw today is just a continuation of this culture.
As early as the 1930s, a wave of academic research in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was set off in China. Under the influence of this craze, many related monuments had been built in many places related to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. However, under the influence of various era environments in the following decades, many of them have not been preserved.
Guiping is the same. During that period, there was a detailed plan to commemorate the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Some of the contents were implemented, and some remained on the plan because of the changes in the times, which became today's story.
Jintian Uprising Museum
In the 30th year of the Republic of China (1941), in Jintian Yingpan, this place was also the place where the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom officially raised the flag. At the time, the Jintian Township Mayors proposed that the villagers of the village jointly raised funds to build a monument. It is built with bricks, two meters high, and the front is built with stones, with seven large characters "Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Monument", and the other three sides are engraved with the preface and inscriptions. It is a "revolutionary pioneer" and "national heroism".
However, in the later changes of the times, this monument was destroyed, and there were so many relics left, so I could search carefully in the camp.
At the same time, a "Wei Changhui Temple" was also built in Jintian Village . It can be said that it was the earliest ancestral hall to worship Wei Changhui . This is probably near Wei Changhui's former residence today. However, there was no story about this temple later. Later, in the 1980s, another former residence was built, but that former residence was relatively simple and said to be just an empty house.I don’t know much about the specific details of
. It was not until the time of building the Jintian Museum in recent years that a "Wei Changhui Story" was rebuilt to show some of the deeds of the Northern King and information related to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. I have been there twice, but I haven’t encountered the opening of the door, so I don’t know the specific content displayed in it.
Wei Changhui's former residence
is located on Rhino Ridge. During the Republic of China, it was the location of Jintian Township Office. At that time, Jintian Township Office was a pink and white elongated building. It can be said that it is the tallest building in the area and the tallest floor. Standing on the roof, you can see the situation of the new ruins a few kilometers away.
During the Republic of China period, township offices in various parts of Guangxi generally had the function of "three-in-one". They were the joint offices of rural agencies, namely township offices, militia brigades, and township schools. At that time, the central school in Jintian Township was here. Since it was the Bank of China of Jintian , the school’s name was: Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Memorial School.
Now in Jintian Village, there is still a "Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Jintian Uprising Memorial Primary School". This cannot be said to be completely inherited from this school in the Republic of China, but it also has a certain inheritance relationship.
It can be said that this is the primary school with the longest school name in Guiping, and it also has its own roots.
Jintianyingpan
Around 1943, Taiping Heavenly Kingdom researcher Jian Youwen After on-site inspection and visiting Jintian, he proposed several plans to commemorate the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom for Guiping County at that time.
1, on the flat ground in front of Jintian Township Office, a larger stone tablet was erected at the "Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Uprising".
This was not realized due to various conditions at that time. To this day, I just found a stone to mark the flag worship stone of that year, which is the stone that the heroes of the heavenly kingdom raised their flags back then.

2, change the lake pavilion in Guiping Zhongshan Park to Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Memorial Pavilion.
seems to have been implemented, but it seems to have not been implemented.
During the Republic of China period, when Guiping Zhongshan Park was built, a pavilion in the middle of the lake had been opened and built, which became a scene of the park. However, it was also due to the times that it was destroyed.
At this time, it was proposed to convert the Huxin Pavilion into a Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Memorial Pavilion. This is actually the easiest to build. According to the old man's recollection, it was really built later, but it was destroyed later.
In the early 1980s, when Guiping Zhongshan Park was rebuilt, the Huxin Pavilion was rebuilt on the original site, which is what I see today.

3, build a "Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Memorial Hall" on the side of Zhongshan Park in Guiping! The plan of the memorial hall of
is to accommodate more than 2,000 people. In addition to displaying some cultural materials from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, it also wants to build a cultural public center building in Guiping, with a stage to act, a movie, an exhibition, and an literacy class , a public newspaper reading room, etc. It can be said that it is a very complete Guiping Citizen Hall.
Later, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Memorial Hall was indeed built, which cost a lot of money. As for whether this memorial hall was built into a plan, it is not clear. I only know that the memorial hall had collected a lot of physical relics related to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and some early documents at that time. On the day of completion and opening, celebrities from all walks of life were invited from Guangdong and other places, and a large cultural performance was held.
can be said to be the largest and most modern Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Memorial Hall in the country in that era. Unfortunately, the memorial hall was completed less than March. The Japanese army invaded Guangxi for the second time. As an important town along the Xijiang River, Guiping became one of the targets of attack. In the end, a few Japanese bombs were blown down and turned into ruins. This glorious memorial hall became ruins.
The memorial pavilion in the middle of the lake should be destroyed.
Jintian Fujiazhai
From then on, for a long time, there was basically no display related to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in Guiping City. It was not until the Guiping Museum was built that some information about the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was displayed in the museum. However, for a long time, the cultural propaganda of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was relatively weak.
After 2000, due to the development of cities and the rise of tourism culture, local humanistic content became the focus, and the content of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was slowly displayed in Guiping as a business card.
Nowadays, with the society's understanding and improvement of tourism culture, the ruins related to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom are gradually being built in Jintian, and Gulin Society, Fujiazhai, Shitaojiao, etc. are somewhat built.
It’s a pity that the information collected is too little, and I haven’t seen much of these places. I just made a simple reminder.
Generally speaking, Guiping's exploration of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom culture is relatively shallow. First, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom stayed in Guiping for a short time, and second, there are few records of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in the early stage, and many of them have been mentioned in one sentence.
