Shanghai has its own "Jinluodian, Yinnanxiang, Copper Zhenru, Iron Field" saying, open the old map, in the northwest direction can find the Zhenru area. In the past, Zhenru Town was prosperous in commerce and commerce, and was the northwest gate of Shanghai.
Zhenru got its name from the temple, and the temple became a town. As early as the seventh year of Yuan Yanyou (1320), the monk Miaoxin moved to build The Zhenru Temple in the northeast corner of the confluence of the Taopu River and the Liyuanbang River, and Zhenru was born. 700 years ago, Zhenru Ancient Town has precipitated humanistic history. In 1932, the first Songhu War of Resistance was held here, and the General Headquarters of the Nineteenth Route Army was located here. It was one of the earliest urbanized villages and towns on the outskirts of Shanghai, with a railway station and a radio station in the early 20th century.
79-year-old Zhao Apo has lived in Zhenru for most of her life. In the depths of memory, there is also the appearance of the great temple when it was just built: a Maitreya Buddha at the door was touched by the children who went to school; the lamb restaurant in the town was like a city every day, and the diners ate it no matter how many times; and the lively scenes of the annual temple fair, the goods from all over the world, the floating procession beating gongs and drums...
However, the former Zhenru Town is inconvenient to transport and has always maintained its original urban appearance. It wasn't until the 1990s that the urbanization process of Zhenru began to accelerate. Relying on its unique geographical advantages and commercial traditions, Zhenru has become a major agricultural product trading center in Shanghai, and a number of farmers' wholesale markets represented by the Tongchuan Road Aquatic Products Market have brought popularity and vitality to Zhenru.
Of course, the increasingly hot business also made the environment in this area once dirty. On October 31, 2016, the Tongchuan Road Aquatic Products Market was officially closed, and the traditional agricultural trade industry should be transformed into a more advanced industry, and Zhenru will also usher in a new round of development. We will wait and see what new opportunities and new futures the ancient town will have.
Keyframes:
True as usual, true as ever.
A hundred years is true, and the future can be expected.
