"A brief introduction to the history of Jiangyin's scenic spots." Jiangyin, a city located in the southern part of Jiangsu Province, had a rich history. Many scenic spots had witnessed the changes of time. Xing Guo Garden was located on the south street of Jiangyin City. This place used to be the former site of Xingguo Temple. Here stood an ancient pagoda of the Northern Song Dynasty with a history of more than a thousand years-Xingguo Pagoda. The Xingguo Pagoda was built during the Taiping Xingguo period of the Northern Song Dynasty. Its fate was closely linked to war. The seven-story pagoda, which was originally a pavilion-style brick and wood structure, was damaged by war during the Yuan Zhizheng period. After restoration during the Zhengtong period of the Ming Dynasty, it was increased to nine stories. The wooden structure was destroyed in a fire during the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty. In the 14th year of the Republic of China, the top of the pagoda was hit by artillery fire. In order to protect this ancient tower, Xingguo Garden, a classical garden, was built. In the garden, many ancient bridges and ancient buildings that disappeared in Jiangyin's history reappeared. Today, Xingguo Garden was a beautiful Jiangnan garden. There were pavilions, winding paths and corridors, rockery with water, lush vegetation, and poetic charm. It had become a good place for citizens to take a leisure walk and also attracted many tourists to experience its unique historical charm. The ruins of the government office in Jiangsu Province (Zhongshan Park) also carried a heavy history. Jiangsu had always attached great importance to culture and education. The ruins of Jiangyin's Jiangsu Academic Administration Yamen Office were of great significance. This was the Yamen Office that presided over the "scholar" examination in the eight prefectures and three states of Jiangsu during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It was in charge of the province's educational affairs. The Yamen Office was established in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty (1614). It gradually declined after the abolition of the imperial examination system in 1904. Over the past 290 years, 124 scholars had served here. It was a grand building and was known as the "First Yamen Office in Jiangnan". It originally had a ceremonial door, dragon gate, lobby, left examination shed examination room, dormitory, canteen, back garden and other buildings. The overall layout was 13, but due to years of disrepair and war baptism, only the ceremonial door remained. After the local renovation and expansion, it became the current Jiangyin Zhongshan Park, which was an open and free urban garden. The history of the back garden in the government office could be traced back to the Wanchun Garden in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty. It was originally an exquisite private garden. Although it did not have gorgeous carved beams and painted buildings, the pavilions, corridors, rockery, and green ponds complemented each other, giving it a very wild and artistic conception.
