There is a very impressive temple in Dabeiguan, Shenyang, called Bawang Temple, also known as Dafa Temple. There is a well in front of the temple. The water in the well is clear and sweet, with a sweet taste. This is the famous temple in the three eastern provinces. "The No. 1 sweet spring in Northeast China". It is said that Emperor Qianlong liked to use the well water of Bawang Temple to make tea. He often ordered people to send the well water all the way to the Forbidden City for him to drink. Speaking of the well water of Hachioji Temple, there is also a mythical story spread.

According to legend, a long time ago, Bawang Temple was surrounded by low-lying lands and large reed ponds, making it very difficult for people to drink water. Rich people usually buy water transported from the city to drink, while poor people can only drink Paozi water, which is bitter and astringent. In the early Qing Dynasty, there was a girl named Lianhua who lived near Bawang Temple. Lianhua's parents died young, and she lived off the family fortune her father earned when he was an Eight Banners soldier. Miss Lotus is not only beautiful, but also kind-hearted and friendly. Everyone says she has the heart of a Bodhisattva.

One day, an old beggar lady came to Hachioji Temple. She was wearing rags, carrying a walking stick, and a small wicker basket. She went begging from house to house every day. Every time the old lady came to Lianhua's house, Lianhua would invite her into the house, wash her face and wipe her hands, and serve her tea and rice. In winter, Lotus gave her clothes to the old lady to prevent her from getting cold and sick. Despite this, the old lady never thanked Lianhua. Lianhua felt that this was what she should do and never complained.

Finally one day, the old lady told Lianhua that she was planning to leave Hachioji forever and asked Lianhua what her wishes and requirements were. Lianhua thought for a long time and said that the people near Bawang Temple did not have good water, and she would be satisfied as long as the old man dug a sweet water well. The old man happily agreed to Lianhua's request. From that day on, for seven or forty-nine consecutive days, the old lady stood motionless in the hall of Hachioji Temple, with 10 large everlasting candles lit on her arms. Then the old lady asked the old monk of Hachioji Temple to mobilize manpower to dig a well in front of the mountain gate. On the 100th day, clear spring water emerged from the well. When the people around knew it, they cheered and ran around to tell each other. The old lady and Lotus Girl disappeared quietly, and no one saw them again. Only the sweet water well of Hachioji Temple remained in the world from generation to generation. There is a clear spring 50 meters southeast of the gate of Hachioji Temple, commonly known as "Hachioji Well". According to the "Shenyang County Chronicle": "The well spring is clear and sweet, ranking first among all springs in Shenyang." The spring is so famous and has a historical story. After drinking this water from Kangxi's eastward tour, in the 43rd year of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty (1778), Emperor Qianlong made an eastward tour to Shengjing, visited Fuling, Zhaoling, and the Forbidden City in Shenyang, and relied on camels to transport Yuquan water from Beijing for drinking. Due to the long journey, the Yuquan water had become turbid by the time it arrived in Shenyang, making it difficult to drink. So Bawangji water was used to wash it. Unexpectedly, he stirred it with a bamboo pole. After a while, the water from Bawangji Temple was trapped in the upper part. He scooped it out with a silver spoon and tasted it. It was sweeter than the water from Yuquan. Emperor Qianlong was overjoyed and everyone drank the clear spring water from Bawang Temple from then on, so it was called the water for imperial use and was known as "the first sweet spring in the Northeast".

From "Iron Hat King" to "Defending National Industry"

As a famous historical and cultural city, Shenyang's many monuments and related allusions have left us with a profound cultural accumulation in today's city. .

The legends about "Bawang Temple", "Qingquanjing", and Bawang Temple Soda Water Factory are still topics that people in Shencheng talk about. On October 17, the reporter found out the whole story.

"Bawang Temple" was originally "Dafa Temple"

According to data, the "Bawang Temple" in the north of Shenyang was originally called "Dafa Temple". "Dafa Temple" was first built in the thirteenth year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (1415); it was rebuilt three times in the third year of Chongde (1638), the fifty-fourth year of Qianlong (1789), and the eleventh year of Tongzhi (1872) in the Qing Dynasty. .

Historical records indicate that in the early years of Chongde in the Qing Dynasty, Prince Azige, the twelfth son of Emperor Taizu Nurhachi of the Qing Dynasty and Prince of England, was returning to Shengjing from Phoenix City and passing by the "Dafa Temple". Seeing that the temple was in dilapidated condition, he donated some silver to rebuild it. Dafa Temple".

In the third year of Chongde in the Qing Dynasty, the "Dafa Temple" was renovated.

At that time, Azige and the hereditary "Eight Iron Hat Kings" all lived in their respective palaces in Shengjing Fangcheng. In order to thank Azige for his charity, the monk in charge of the temple built an "Eight Kings Temple" on the left side of the "Dafa Temple". Since then, "Dafa Temple" has gradually become Azig's family temple. Over time, local people called the "Eight Kings Temple" the "Eight Kings Temple" and ignored the "Dafa Temple".

During the Russo-Japanese War, on March 10, 1905, the Tsarist Russian army occupied the "Hachioji Temple" and used it as a military camp, stables, and shelter. The Tsarist Russian army drove away the monks, plundered their belongings, stripped off the golden body of the Buddha, tore down the doors and windows and set fire to it, and cut down the old pines in the courtyard. After the Japanese invaders captured Shenyang, the Tsarist Russian army set fire to the "Bawang Temple" and then fled towards Santaizi. At that time, nearly 500 years of Buddhist holy land and majestic ancient temples were destroyed in an instant. In 1928, the warlord Zhang Zuolin allocated special funds to rebuild the "Eight Kings Temple" for the fourth time, restoring the ancient temple to its original appearance. Later, the "Bawang Temple" was looted again and later occupied by Shenyang No. 5 Carton Factory and other units.

Kangxi’s eastern tour praised Qingquan

On October 17, a local old man, Mr. Wang, who loved folk customs, told reporters the origin of "Qingquan Well".

He said that there was an ancient well more than 50 meters northeast of the "Bawang Temple". The well shaft is built with blue bricks, and the wellhead is built with blue stones. At that time, the monks of the "Bawang Temple" and nearby residents all drank the water from this ancient well. Because the water in the well is clear, transparent, sweet and refreshing, people call it "Qingquan Well".

According to legend, in the tenth year of Kangxi's reign in the Qing Dynasty (1671), Emperor Kangxi visited Shengjing east to accompany the capital to worship his ancestors. After paying homage to Fuling and Zhaoling, he suddenly felt thirsty and wanted to drink water. However, the Yuquan water from Beijing that was carried along camels had become turbid and stale over time and could not be given to the emperor for drinking. Therefore, local officials presented water from the "Qingquan Well" to Emperor Kangxi. Emperor Kangxi and all the civil and military officials drank the water from the clear spring and well, and they all praised it highly.

At that time, various teahouses displayed signs saying "Bawang Temple Clear Spring Well Water", which became a fashion in Shengjing.
