Whip Finger Lane is located in the historical and cultural center of Jinan, from Shuangzhongci Street in the north, Quancheng Road in the south, General Temple Street in the west, and Provincial Capital Qian Street in the east. It is about 330 meters long and 7 meters wide.
The origin of the street name about Whip Finger Lane is that during the Kangxi and Qianlong years of the Qing Dynasty, there was a "Kang YongQian prosperous era", the feudal economy developed rapidly, and the whip finger lane was close to the yamen at all levels and was a gathering place for merchants and merchants, so the carriage and the flow of people were endless. As a result, a number of handicraft workshops dealing with leather products such as whips, reins, and saddles gradually appeared nearby, and there were also ticket number money houses and large houses, and over time, the original alley was called "Whip Lane", and later people called it "Whip Finger Lane" because of the harmonic sound of whips. Second, it was quite folk, when the Qianlong Emperor stopped in Jinan on the way to Jinan, and because of curiosity, yang whip asked his entourage: "Where is this?" At that time, Liu Yong said on an improvised basis: "Long live the royal whip, which can be called whip finger alley." It was then named.
Located in the historical and cultural center of Jinan, Whip Finger Lane is one of the few ancient alleys preserved in Jinan City. The commercial atmosphere of Whip Finger Lane is strong, and its biggest feature is the rich city style. When you first enter this old alley, it is not as vicissitudes as other ancient streets and alleys, and there are many shops in the alley, such as Quanhui Restaurant, Herui Secret Recipe Ribs, Fu Ji Hand Rolling Noodle Restaurant and other snack bars, with a large flow of people, which cannot be seen in other ancient streets and alleys. In addition, this street of The Yuanfu is in the 9th and 11th courtyards within the alley. After the renovation, the alley surface is more regular and tidy, full of modern humanistic atmosphere. (I'll cover that later)
At present, many antique buildings have been built on the east side of Whip Finger Lane, named "Hongshangfang", and Taiyun Changchen is hidden in it and is not conspicuous. The wall tiles used in taiyun Changchen's buildings are more primitive than those of the surrounding buildings, and the color is lighter than that of the surrounding buildings.
The frontage gatehouse sits east to west and is stone arched. Above the gate tower is a daughter wall, which is higher than the surrounding buildings, and there is a stone plaque in the middle, "Taiyun Changchen" 4 large characters hidden in the green climbing tiger. There is a pair of couplets on the gate, which has long been discolored, and the door is locked inside, and it is now impossible to enter, which is the garden of that year.
According to the records, the inner courtyard of the garden is a quadrangle courtyard, the front door is a shadow wall, and the north house in the courtyard is a two-story building, with a total of 10 rooms up and down, and 3 east and west wing rooms, all of which are masonry structures and wooden beams. The doors and windows are all brick arches with brick buds. The houses are covered with small gray tiles and flower ridges. The North Building is one of the few two-storey and five-bay buildings in the old city, and the gatehouse door opening is the only building in the old city that adopts the Western coupon pillar structure, the whole courtyard is small and chic, the building is regular, well-preserved, and it is a perfect combination of western style built in the Republic of China period and the traditional Chinese courtyard style in Jinan. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, when the public-private partnership was established, this old building was converted into a cloth shop, and then once became a weaving factory workshop.
Guan Yousheng (1906-1970), the owner of the garden at that time, was the owner of the garden. The origin of the name of the garden is related to the name of Guan Yousheng: "Hiss its sound, ask for its friend's voice". Qing Guangxu was born on March 25, 1906, in the 32nd year of the Qing Dynasty (1906 AD). The Guan family has been engaged in business for generations, and by the time Guan Yousheng's father, Guan Chenglin, was a generation, he had become one of the three major salt merchants in Jinan at that time.
According to the data, Guan Yousheng was orphaned early, and at the age of 14, he began to learn painting with his eldest brother, and he first learned the Yuan Sijia, and then changed to Shi Tao under the influence of Zhang Daqian. After years of artistic practice and arduous exploration, he finally learned the strengths of a hundred families and gradually formed his own painting style, which was a famous landscape painter in the country at that time, and once served as a professor at Shandong Art College.
In that year, after graduating from the Department of Chinese Studies of Shandong University, Guan Yousheng traveled to Beijing to study, and got to know many calligraphers and painters, such as Huang Binhong, Qi Baishi, Zhang Daqian, Hui Xiaotong, Zhang Boju, Wu Hufan, Xu Beihong, Fu Baoshi, Li Kuchan, Qi Gong, etc., of which Zhang Daqian was the most rebellious. Zhang Daqian traveled back and forth between Beijing and Shanghai, and when passing through Jinan on the way, he often came to Guan Yousheng to stay. Many of Zhang Daqian's works are tibetan paintings copied from The Garden.
It is worth mentioning that the inscription of "Taiyun Changchen" is also very famous. His name is Hu Bainian, the character Ke Ting, the number Xu An, originally from Shaoxing, Zhejiang, living in Jinan, is a late Qing Dynasty art wizard and calligrapher, but unfortunately died at the age of 47, for the garden inscription "Taiyun Changchen" is a year before his death.
In this alley, there are also two well-known musical instrument artists, namely Du Fuzhuang, the founder of the "Dufuzhuang Huqin Shop" in Gate 31, which is now operated by the third generation of people, and the owner of the Huqin Shop on Gongyuan Wall Root Street is two brothers. Nowadays, the business of the store is relatively deserted, and the customers are mostly elderly. Another artist in the alley is Wang Junqing, who "specializes in repairing sheng" in the North House of No. 45, and is also a door cockroach.
Since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Whip Finger Lane has undergone several vicissitudes. Today, the green brick walls in the alley have not changed, and many courtyards and ancient buildings with relatively complete layouts have been retained. The plaques of du fu zhuang huqin shop and special repair sheng these two old shops have been replaced, especially fortunate that the traditional crafts have not been lost, these crafts and this old street grew together, is undoubtedly the best witness to the history of whip finger alley. Remember this old alley with both modern and contemporary flair.
