Historical changes of Huaqing Pool;
The Qing Palace was built in the early Tang Dynasty and reached its peak after Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty carefully built such a magnificent palace. He visited almost every October and returned to Chang'an at the end of his life. Therefore, there is a famous saying, "On October 1st, when the emperor comes, there will be no dust on the green rope."
According to the "Lintong County Chronicle" written by Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, from the second year of Kaiyuan (714) to the tenth year of Tianbao During the 40 years of the fourth year (755), he visited Huaqing Palace 36 times, sometimes twice a year, and there are countless itineraries between the lines. Fortunately, the tour area is very large, and thousands of flags are obscured by Yuan Ye and cloudy trees. Eighty-one cars must be ridden, and there will be a banquet and etiquette at dusk. It is equivalent to moving the yamen of Chang'an to Lishan, forming a new city with Huaqing Palace as the center.
After the rebellion, the political situation suddenly changed, and Tang Xuanzong finally fell from the throne of emperor. Tourism in Huaqing Palace declined rapidly. Since the Tang Dynasty, emperors of all dynasties rarely visited Huaqing Palace.
In the 42nd year of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty (1702), Huaqing Pool (formerly Huaqing Palace) was rebuilt during his westward journey in winter and November, and he once "stayed in the hot springs". There were several renovations during the Republic of China, but the ancient buildings in Huaqing Pool and Lishan are probably the ones that were retained after reconstruction in the early Qing Dynasty. Before liberation, Tangchi was vast and sparsely populated, with the palaces deserted and a dilapidated scene.
Beginning in 1959, the post-liberation People's Government carried out large-scale expansion, opened soup pools, repaired temples, built hotels and gardens, revitalizing the ancient Huaqing Palace and becoming a tourist attraction for the people. playground.
