The archway should be called the most iconic ancient building in Qiancheng. As early as November 1996, the two Ming Dynasty Arches on Hongkong Road and the two Qing Dynasty Arches on Xinhua East Road were selected as the fourth batch of national cultural relics protection units, and their exquisite architectural art and historical value can be ranked among the top of the existing arches in the country. In addition to these 4 arches, there are still 8 arches and remnants in Qiancheng, which are like pearls that have been sealed for a long time, embedded in the urban and rural intersections and suburbs, telling people about the glory and rise and fall of the past.

In history, Zhangzhou once built hundreds of arches, which have been tempered over the years and destroyed a lot. According to the Records of Zhangzhou Fuzhi and Regulation in the third year of the Qing Dynasty (1877), there were still more than 90 arches in the city area. During the Period of the Protectorate of the Republic of China (1918-1920), Chen Jiongming was in charge of Zhangzhou, carried out urban transformation, and demolished many arches. Since then, until the liberation of Zhangzhou, there are few arches preserved in the ancient city. During the "Cultural Revolution", the old archway in Zhangzhou was destroyed again. Today, there are still 12 old arches in the qiancheng district, including 6 in the Ming Dynasty (2 are remnant seats), 4 in the Qing Dynasty, and 2 in the Chronology.

According to the nature of the existing archways in Qiancheng, there are four main types: Gongmingfang, Miaokoufang, Tomb Road Fang, and Jiexiaofang. The four arches on Hong Kong Road and Xinhua East Road are all gongmingfang. In addition, there are two archway remnants on Taiwan Road, both of which are famous workshops of the Ming Dynasty. One is the "Two Pingxian Six Generations Chengen" square located at the top of the double gate, and the other is the "Five Star Jukui" square located at the intersection of Taiwan Road and Gonghe Road.

The "Shang Shu Tanhua" and "Two Capital Calendars" workshops at the top of the shuangmen on Hong Kong Road were erected for the Ming Dynasty Shangshu Lin Shizhang and the Right Attendant Jiang Mengyu of the Bureaucracy, respectively, and their fathers Jiang Yushan and Zu Jiang Xiang. The "Minyue Xiongsheng" and "Brave and Simple" workshops in Yuekou, Xinhua East Road, were established by Lan Li and Xu Feng, the famous generals of the Qing Kangxi Emperor's imperial platform. Two four arches stand across the street, becoming the most distinctive landmark building in the ancient city of Zhangzhou. (The two arches have a lot of introductory text in the newspaper, and this article is omitted.) )

The Shuangmen Ding "Two Bingxian Six Generations Cheng'en" square was erected for the ming Dynasty Hong's grandsons and grandsons of the six generations of officials and eunuchs Hong Ming, Hong Yi, Hong Rirui, Hong Gong harmonious, Hong Wenxin, and Hong Shifan. The mill was demolished in the eighth year of the Republic of China (1919), leaving only a small room on the south side. Judging from the existing stone pillars and their components, the archway is majestic and tall, and it can be imagined that its structure is high. Originally, there was also a "Pillar History" workshop dedicated to Hong Yi on the side of the archway. Hong Yi, character Datong, Longxi people. Ming Hongzhi Yidi (i.e., Hongzhi Viii, 1495) was promoted to the post of Official of Zhi County, Chongde County, who had a lot of political achievements, was promoted to supervise the imperial history, because of the law enforcement, the later official went to Guangdong to consult, during which he put an end to the rebellion in the East China Sea of Guangdong, and was promoted to the post of Sichuan Youshi, and returned to his hometown at the age of 70 as a mother and an old beggar. Hong Yi was humble and gentle, "did not try to do family affairs", and the local officials and people of Zhangzhou respected him very much. Hong Yi's father, Hong Ming, was the prefect; his son Hong Rirui was the prefect; Sun Honggong was the jiajing Jiachen jinshi and the official was the prefect of Jinhua; the yuansun Hong Wenxin was the envoy of the imperial court; and the grandson Hong Shifan was the deputy envoy of the military reserve road.

The "Five-Star Jukui" Workshop was established by people for the five Zhangzhou Shangshu and Shilang of the imperial court in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.

In addition to gongmingfang, Miaokoufang, which stands on the old street of the ancient city, often becomes a scenery written by artists. At present, there are still two Miaokoufang with a total of 3 temples in Qiancheng. A "YueMiaoFang" located at the main gate of Yuekou Primary School on Xinhua East Road. The square is the gate arch of the original Dongyue Palace (also known as dongyue temple). Dongyue Temple was built during the Song Shaoxing period (1131~1162), divided into two parts: "Dayue" and "Xiaoyue", with a large scale, and the present Yuekou Primary School and its adjacent Qiancheng District Education Bureau (formerly the First Vocational School of Zhangzhou) belong to the scope of the original Dongyue Temple. Dongyue Temple is dedicated to The King of Yan Luo, with the worship of Emperor Guan, Xuan Tanye, Guanyin, Land God, etc., and the side hall is dedicated to the Three Treasures Buddha. "Dayue" was converted into a primary school in the 32nd year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty (1906), while "Xiaoyue" was destroyed in the early liberation period. "YueMiaofang" stands in the seventh year of Zhengde (1512), the height of the square is 4.8 meters, the width of 10.3 meters, is a stone imitation wood structure, four pillars and three rooms, four slope roofs; the roof of the main building is placed under the bucket arch two, the main plaque has been enlarged, and the beam under the main plaque is engraved "Zhengde Seventh Year First Month Eight Days". The square is simple and simple, and it is the earliest of the existing arches in Qiancheng.

Another "Temple of Literature" is located on Xiuwen Road. The workshop is juxtaposed with two, one is the "Depai Heaven and Earth" square, and the other is the "Daoguan Ancient and Modern" square. The specific date of the two workshops is unknown, but from the existing buildings and materials, it is the style of the Republic of China period. According to historical records, the Zhangzhou Confucian Temple was built in the fourth year of the Song Dynasty (1044) and was rebuilt many times in successive dynasties. It can be seen from the Guangxu "Zhangzhou Fuzhi" volume "Fuxue Tu" that the Temple of Literature is based on the Song system of "left temple and right learning", the original buildings are Minglun Hall, Panchi, Lingxing Gate, etc., the central axis of the gate is in turn for the JiMen, Danqi, Platform, Dacheng Hall, flanked by the east and west two and Jingyi Pavilion, etc.; the left and right sides of the Temple of Literature are painted with two archways of "Depai Heaven and Earth" and "Daoguan Ancient and Modern". It shows that before the third year of Guangxu (1877), there were already these two doorways at the front of the Temple of Literature. In the fourteenth year of the Republic of China (1925) and the twenty-fifth year of the Republic of China (1936), the Temple of Literature was rebuilt twice. The author judges that the two arches may have been built at this time.

Tomb Daofang is a kind of archway used to build in front of the tomb of a celebrity, and there is still a Ming Dynasty Lü Min Tomb Daofang on the general hill of Huancang Village in Punan Town, Qiancheng District. The workshop was erected for the Ming Dynasty ceremonial attendant Guozi to supervise the wine Lü Min. The square is a four-pillar, three-door, two-story soaring structure, the original pair of stone lions on the top of the middle door pillar has disappeared, and the stone gourd on the top of the side door pillar is still there; the horizontal plaque on the front of the archway is engraved with "Emperor Ming Qin gifted the funeral", and the back is engraved with the words "Bow to the end". There is also a memorial arch in Zhangzhou City, named "Dasicheng Shaozongbo" Square, the archway stands on Weiqian Street (weikou, now Taiwan Road), but it has long ceased to exist.

In the feudal era, there was also a kind of "filial piety" archway dedicated to women. "Festival" refers to the observance of women's ways, and "filial piety" refers to filial piety to the elderly. It is one of the main forms of expression used in the old times to promote etiquette and filial piety. The Jiexiaofang must be built only after the "official examination and royal approval", so the vertical plaque in the middle of the Jiexiaofang often has the words "Enrong" and "Huang En", and on both sides are the official positions and names of local officials at all levels, which is a bit like the signatures that are now submitted to the examination and approval step by step. The festival is generally smaller and is often located at lesser intersections and village roads. Historically, there are many such arches in Zhangzhou.

There are still two "Jie Filial Piety" squares in Qiancheng. One is the "Jie Xiao" square on Xizhi Street. Originally located in West Street, Qiancheng District, the workshop was demolished in November 2007 during the reconstruction of the West Street area, and the entire archway components are now completely preserved in the temporary resettlement site of Ximei Palace in Ruijing Village, which will be restored and rebuilt together with the Ximei Palace that was demolished at the same time. The workshop was established in the second year of Qing Daoguang (1822) for the wife of Liu Riyao, a Confucian priest in Longxi County. The archway is a two-pillar single room bluestone, and the horizontal engraving is "Great Qing Daoguang 2nd Year Noon Guiyue Jian" and "Jingbiao Confucian Liu Riyao Wife Zheng Shifang"; the plaque in the middle is "Jie Xiao"; the left and right plaques are "Bingbu Shilang Minzhe Governor's Department Plus Third Grade Han Kejun" "Fujian Zhangzhou Prefecture Governor Plus Grade Three Lu Yan" and other local official names; the top of the archway is carved with the double dragon play bead pattern, and the word "Enrong" is engraved inside the middle round bead; the double pillar couplet is: "Follow filial piety to clean the ice and snow with your heart, and train the zi jiekou Silk Lun." ”

The other is the Official Garden "Festival of Filial Piety" Workshop. The workshop was located in the Guanyuan Castle community at the junction of present-day Xinhua East Road and Shengli East. The square was erected in the fifth year of Qing Daoguang (1825), a two-pillar single-room stone imitation wood structure, 3.6 meters high and 3.38 meters wide; the archway plaque is engraved with the words "Jie Xiao", and the left and right sides are: "Zhao Shenyi, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, Sun Erzhun of the Inspectorate of Fujian, Qiu (讳) Mingtai, the envoy of Fujian Province, and Dai Jiayu of the Zhengtang of Zhangzhou Prefecture, Fujian Province. "Ji Zhi, the main hall of Longxi County, Zhangzhou Province, Li Yuzhong, a Confucian teacher in Longxi County, and Chen Rongrui, a Confucian instructor in Longxi County." The horizontal plaque is engraved: "Great Qing Daoguang Five Years Of Ethyl Unitary LaYue Jian" "Jingbiao Late Grandson Zhuo Qian's Wife Li Family Fang", and the beam relief under the plaque is a four-dragon play bead pattern. The double-pillar couplet on the front: "Lun Praise Favor Long Lady De Yao Wu Sect, The Achievement of the Hagi Sect is worthy of the □ Day of the Heart Alliance." From the side paragraph, it can be seen that the association was written by "Jin Shi was born, the ChaoHui Doctor, and the former nursing Zong Shuwei of the Main Hall of Guangzhou Province, Guangdong Province".

Although the specifications of the two "Festivals and Filial Piety" in Qiancheng are not large, they are relatively well preserved and the content is very rich. It is a rare object for studying the politics, culture, folklore, architecture and other rare objects in Zhangzhou at that time.
