Ningbo is home to the 7,000-year-old Hemudu Neolithic Culture. It has China’s existing oldest private library. It boasts Legend of Butterfly Lovers, cloth dragon (Fenghua), Pingdiao Opera (Ninghai) and cinnabar and gold lacquer wood carving, which have been listed in China’s first batch of Intangible Cultural Heritage Catalog. This place is home to the East Zhejiang School in Ming and Qing Dynasties. It has been in the forefront of modern China’s Westernization Movement Reform after the Opium War and the foreland where western and Chinese Cultures meet.
It is often said that country thrives with the efforts by its people, and a city becomes famous because of its culture. Today, on this land with long history of culture and prosperous economy, the drive of building of a cultural city has been started, to carry on the fine tradition of being a famous historical and cultural city.
From Dynasties of Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing to Modern Times
Ningbo is like a museum without walls, where historical and cultural relics are found everywhere. It boasts 22 items of cultural relics under the protection of the state. The number will increase to 296 if all the cultural relics under the protection of the state, Zhejiang province and Ningbo city are included. To take the less than 1-km-long West Zhongshan Road for example, along its two sides from the west end to the east, it presents the cultural landscape ranging from the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties to today.
The Tang Tower, standing on the pavement of the Xiaowen Street, was built in the 4th year of Xiantong Reign (863 A.D.). The tower demonstrates the rational spirit of Mingzhou (now called Ningbo) people in the Tang Dynasty and their pursuit of beauty. In the south of West Zhongshan Road, there is a stone pavilion in the northeast corner of the Moon Lake, lower than the road level. It is named ‘Tablet Pavilion in the Water’. A big Chinese Character ‘Ping’ is written on the tablet. This pavilion was built in the South Song Dynasty for monitoring of the water level. It was used to prevent flood, waterlog and drought. This is the first ancient hydrological station that has ever been found in the country.
On the other side of West Zhongshan Road, there is the only remains of a large-scale warehouse of an ancient local city in the country, namely the Yongfeng Warehouse Site of the Yuan Dynasty. It was discovered at the end of 2002. It covers an area of 9,600 M2. Altogether, more than 800 cultural relics of the Song and Yuan Dynasties were excavated, which indicates Ningbo ’s status in transportation and trade with the outside world in history.
The former residence houses of the Fan’s built in Ming Dynasty pose harmoniously with the Tang Tower and Drum Tower one street apart. The residence houses are of local house style, built more than 400 years ago, whose owner, by the name of Fan Yinai, was a descendant of Fan Zhongyan, a famous official in North Song Dynasty.
The Drum Tower standing on Zhenming Road, opposite to the Zhongshan Road, which was the north-south axial line of the ancient city, was rebuilt during the Xianfeng Reign of the Qing Dynasty. It used to be the south gate of the inner-city built by the mayor of Mingzhou in the first year of Changqing Reign in Tang Dynasty (A.D.821). It was destroyed and rebuilt many times in history. The Drum Tower symbolizes the formal establishment of Ningbo city and has witnessed the vicissitudes of the city.
Eastward from the Drum Tower and not far away is the three-river confluence, the heart of the city. Ningbo’s mother river Yaojiang River running from Hemudu, a place with 7,000-year culture joins the Fenghua River in downtown Ningbo It eventually flows to the East China Sea. Around the three-river confluence, there stands Qianye (Banking) Guild Hall. It was a place where people of the financial industry met and did business. It is the only completely preserved architecture of private banking industry in China. There is also Qing’an Guild Hall built in the 3rd year of Xianfeng Reign in the Qing Dynasty (1853 A.D.). It was the entertainment venue for ship owners and workers sailing to Liaoning, Hebei and Shangdong Provinces, and the hall enshrines a Matsu statute, the goddess of the sea. There is a Catholic church built in the 11th year of Tongzhi Reign in the Qing Dynasty (1872 A.D.). It marked Ningbo being one of the ‘Five Treaty Ports’ during the Opium War. The north bank of the Yongjiang River used to be the residence area of foreigners and is now called the Old Bund, which dated back to a period earlier than the famous Shanghai Bund.
A City of Books and Scholars in the South
The 100-km-long Yaojiang River has nurtured generations of talents. Both Wang Yangming, the creator of Yangming School well known overseas, and Huang Zongxi, the originator of East Zhejiang School, have left deep traces in China’s history of philosophy and thoughts. As an old proverb goes, there is ‘the Tianyi Pavilion Museum in the city and the Baiyun Village outside the city’. Ningbo people are proud of these two places, because the Baiyun Village is the prominent place for East Zhejing Academics and the historical site for East Zhejiang School. Besides, it was the venue where Huang Zongxi lectured for the longest period in Ningbo and spread his influence. The Tianyi Pavilion, where Huang Zongxi read books, still remains standing today. The Tianyi Pavilion, which was built in 1561 by Fan Qin, is the oldest private library still existing in China, as well as the oldest library in Asia and one of the three oldest private libraries in the world. That is why Ningbo enjoys the reputation of a city of books in the South.
The descendants of the Fan’s Family attached great importance to education. For more than 400 years, Tianyi Pavilion has preserved the tradition of being a ‘place of education’. Both Tianyi Pavilion and its neighboring Qin's Ancestral Temple once ran schools, the former ran private schools called ‘Si Shu’ and the latter ran primary schools. Therefore Ningbo people have long formed the tradition of valuing education. Since ancient times, numerous personages were brought up in Ningbo, including high officials, rich businessmen, notable scholars, ethnic heroes and scientists, etc.
Ningbo city has also produced many states-people. For example, as early as in South Song Dynasty, 3 prime ministers came from the Shi’s There have emerged a great many literary figures, like Zhang Xiaoxiang, Wu Wenying, Wan Sitong, Quan Zuwang in the ancient times and Rou Shi, Yinfu, Wanren in the contemporary era, and Yu Qiuyu, Fen Jicai in modern times. There are national heroes such as Qian Sule and Zhang Cangshui, and revolutionary martyrs like Wang Kun, Li Min are. In the field of science and technology, the number of academicians from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Chinese Academy of Engineering from Ningbo has risen to 93, which is No.1 among all the cities in China. In the art circle, Ningbo has Sha Menghai, the master in the calligraphy world, Pan Tianshou, the master of traditional Chinese painting, Zhou Xinfang, the famous Peking Opera singer, etc. Stephen Chow (famous Hongkong film actor) and famous cello player Yo-Yo Ma also like to call themselves “ Ningbonese”.
