Fuxi Temple

Fuxi and Nuwa are the ancestors of the Chinese nation. The clan leader Fuxi in the Neolithic Age led the early people to hunt, cultivate, make medicine, and open up trigrams, promoting the economic and cultural development of the tribe. The tradition of worshiping Fuxi began in the State of Qin during the Warring States Period. The Qin people originated from Tianshui, and Fuxi also originated from Tianshui, which was known as Chengji in ancient times. The Fuxi Temple built in the Ming Dynasty retains the wooden ancient architecture, the weathered and mottled wooden carvings and wooden pillars, the rusted bell tower and drum tower, telling the cultural tradition of the descendants of Yan and Huang seeking their roots and asking their ancestors. From Qin to Qing, for two thousand years, Tianshui has never left the vision of history. The rich remains of the prehistoric civilization period prove the long history. The Maijishan Grottoes excavated by the Later Qin of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, even more amazed the world. The tea-horse trade in the Ming and Qing Dynasties made this place active between the Central Plains and the northern nomadic peoples. As the descendants of the dragon in the year of the dragon, worshiping the ancestors of the Chinese nation in the Fuxi Temple has a special significance. 🇨🇳Appreciate the five thousand years of Huaxia, inherit the Chinese civilization
