In the first year of Emperor Taizong's Zhenguan (627), Peng Yuan was placed under the jurisdiction of Ningzhou. In the seventh year of Yuan Taizu Zhiyuan (1270), Jing Pengyuan and Anhua entered Qingyang House. In the second year of Hongwu in Ming Taizu (1369), Anhua County was rebuilt, and Zhiligan was the chief secretary of Shaanxi. In the 13th year of Tongzhi in Mu Zong in Qing Dynasty (1874), Dongzhi was divided into counties (the seat of Dongzhi Town Government). In the second year of the Republic of China (19 13), Dong Zhi withdrew from the county and entered Anhua County, so it was renamed Qingyang County and transferred to Jingyuan Road. In the 6th year of the Republic of China (19 17), Xifeng Town was subordinate to Longdong Town (Pingliang). In the 24th year of the Republic of China (1935), the Kuomintang established the Office of the Third Administrative Inspector of Gansu in Xifeng Town. 1July 28, 949, after the liberation of Xifeng, the martial law commission was established. 1950, Longdong district was renamed Qingyang district, and Xifeng town of Qingyang county was established as the regional department. Xifeng City (county level) was established. On May 25th of the same year, the county-level city was changed into a city with districts and was subordinate to Qingyang County. 1954, city changed to district, 1955, district changed to town. 1985 in may, Xifeng city (county level) was established with the approval of the State Council.

Edit the basic situation of this area.
In June, 2002, Qingyang District of Gansu Province withdrew its land to set up a city, and Qingyang City was established on the basis of Qingyang District of Gansu Province. The original Xifeng City (county level) was revoked and Xifeng District was established, becoming the only municipal district in Qingyang City. Xifeng District now governs: 3 streets, 2 towns and 5 townships, namely: North Street, South Street, West Street, Dongzhi Town, Xiaojin Town, Houguanzhai Township, Pengyuan Township, Wenquan Township, Shishe Township and Xiansheng Township.
During Chiang Kai-shek's reign, Xifeng was the residence of the Commissioner's Office of the Third Administrative Region of Gansu Province of the Kuomintang and the bridgehead for attacking the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region. 1July, 949, the Kuomintang Xifeng enemy troops on the defensive abandoned the city overnight and fled in the direction of Zhenyuan. On 28th, Xifeng was liberated. During the land reform in 1950, 56,874 farmers in 32 townships of Xifeng, Dongzhi, Shishe and Pengyuan were granted land. Xifeng ushered in a new life. The 1970s was an important period for the construction of Xifeng Town, which initially took shape of today's city. By 1985, Xifeng was removed from the town to build the city, forming an urban area of about 5 square kilometers, with four streets 19 lanes. After the establishment of the city, Xifeng adhered to the reform and opening up, and took the road of "taking the city as the driving force, promoting the city with the countryside, developing both urban and rural areas, and * * * developing together", which ushered in the most brilliant period of urban construction. After just 20 years of development, the former border villages and towns have risen rapidly and become a new city on the Loess Plateau. Today, Xifeng has an urban area of 13.6 square kilometers, an urban population of120,000 and more than 20 streets. The road is straight and wide, which can't be compared with the street twenty years ago. In 2004 alone, 65,438+00 streets found ideal locations in Xifeng. As for construction, commercial products, markets, industry and trade, it has also developed rapidly. Urbanization is a concomitant phenomenon of industrialization. With the development of productivity and market economy, Xifeng's urbanization level has been continuously improved, the urbanization process has been continuously accelerated, and the construction of material civilization has advanced by leaps and bounds. 1985, Xifeng population was less than 230,000, non-agricultural population was only 37,200, total industrial output value was 64.25 million yuan, and total social consumption was only 740,000 yuan. In 2003, the population exceeded 320,000, and the GDP reached 654.38+35 million yuan. In the first half of 2005 alone, the gross domestic product reached 654.38+0.3 billion yuan, and the total retail consumption reached 459 million yuan. With the development of Xifeng Oilfield, the exploration of Zhengning, Huanxian and Xifeng coalfields, and the implementation of the project-driven urban development strategy, Xifeng people claim that a new Xifeng will be built in five years.
Folk handicrafts such as sachet embroidery and paper-cutting in Xifeng District of Qingyang have a long history of development, but as an industry, it just started in recent years. From the late 1970s to the early 1980s, it was brought to the market by the masses and became a commodity. However, it has been in a spontaneous state among the people, and its cultural heritage and market potential are far from being fully developed and fully utilized. In recent years, under the correct leadership of district committees and district governments and the guidance of market economy, there has been a good momentum of commercialization and marketization. The whole region has a clear understanding of the value of folk culture and art, characteristic economic value and its important role in utilizing women's labor force and increasing people's income. In addition, the success of the four consecutive China Qingyang Sachet Folk Culture Festival has greatly promoted the production and market development of sachets in the whole region. Party and government organs in the whole region pay more attention to the development of sachet industry. Cadres make great efforts to produce sachets, and the masses make great efforts to make them. The marketing channels are expanding rapidly and the industrial benefits are obvious. By the end of June, 2005, there were 1 institute of folk art, 3 arts and crafts associations, 42 industrial bases of folk culture such as sachets and paper-cuts, 7 marketing companies 17, and 2 websites of sachets, with a total production capacity of 800 employees120,000, producing folk culture such as sachets and paper-cuts every year. The sachet income of large producers accounts for about half of their household income, and the highest is over 85%. There are 48 authors named "Qingyang Folk Arts and Crafts Masters", 4 authors named "Gansu Folk Arts and Crafts Artists" and 20 authors named "China Folk Arts and Crafts Masters". The development of sachet folk culture in Xifeng District is strong and the situation is gratifying. Become the research and development training center, product distribution center and marketing dry dock of sachet folk culture industry in the city. Xifeng's sachet embroidery has a unique artistic style and obvious regional characteristics: rough and bold, fine and beautiful; Both strong and delicate, and pure and elegant; There are both freehand brushwork and pure meticulous brushwork. Its composition is concise and lively, which means traditional auspiciousness; Strong and gorgeous colors, excessive cross-chromatography: the embroidered surface is heavy and dignified, and the shape is naive and vivid; Fine finishing process, flat and picturesque stitches; There are many kinds of acupuncture methods. It is another kind of embroidery after Xiang embroidery, Su embroidery and Sichuan embroidery, and has formed the style of dragon embroidery. Xifeng sachet embroidery is the product of the combination of Huang Qi traditional Chinese medicine culture, Zhou farming culture and folk culture, and it is an art of color and color, cloth and thread, form and spirit. It originated in the slavery era of Xia and Shang Dynasties, and after a long feudal era and semi-feudal and semi-colonial era, it has a primitive flavor and conforms to the pulse of the times. It comes from ancient times. Qingyang folk paper-cut, naive Gu Zhuo, vividly embodies the primitive totem culture of Chinese ancestors' worship of life, and reveals the national cultural genes in the same strain from temperament and emotion, which is known as "pastoral poetry" and "lyric folk songs". In the past, people cut out some flowers and birds, figures and other patterns on holidays, weddings and birthdays, and put them on the windows, commonly known as window grilles, to show happiness. Modern paper-cutting embodies the magic.
Aesthetic characteristics and rich folk customs connotation are shining brilliantly with the new era. Qingyang paper-cut is characterized by extensive and heavy modeling, clear lines, fine lines in the rough, thick lines in the thin, and a combination of blocks and lines, which is combined with reality and yin and yang, and has a unique structure. There are more than 150 authors engaged in paper-cutting art in the whole region, among which Tian Xiumao, Ma Xiuzhen, Jin Xianglian, Ji and Du Xiumei of Xifeng were rated as "China folk art masters". They showed artistic talents from different regions, different ages and different cultural levels, which made Qingyang paper-cut colorful and unique. Cave dwelling is the product of the Loess Plateau. Xifeng loess, like the whole loess plateau, is an aeolian soil-like deposit formed in the late Quaternary and early Pleistocene, with a history of 654.38+200,000 years. The thickness of loess layer is generally 50 to 100 meters, and the thickest part can reach 200 meters. Because of the deep loess layer and dense soil, it is very suitable for digging pits and building kilns, and it is not easy to collapse for hundreds to thousands of years. For thousands of years, caves have been an important place for Xifeng people to live. There are many kinds of caves, but according to the main categories, there are basically three kinds: one is Zhuang Ming caves. Also known as Yazhuang Kiln. Generally, the cliff surface is cut first, and then the village is built to dig holes. There are three kilns and five kilns in one village, and there are also more than five kilns. On Dong Zhiyuan, there are also people who use hutongs to build villages. Because the cliff is not high, they have to dig a few meters before digging a cave, which often forms three sides high and one side low. This kind of Zhuangzi is called half bright and half dark village.
The second is the cave dwelling in the sinkhole yard. These caves are all built in large depressions in the plain. First dig a rectangular pit, usually 5 to 8 meters deep, cut all four sides of the pit into cliffs, and then dig caves around the cliffs. And build a long ramp or inclined hole on one side, which goes straight to the original ground as a sidewalk. This cave is actually a basement, and the characteristics of warm in winter and cool in summer are more obvious. The third type is hoop kiln. Ring kilns are generally made of adobe and wheat straw yellow mud, and the top of the kiln is arched. The top of the kiln is filled with a double-sided slope, which looks like a house from a distance and a kiln from a distance. Many people also put tiles on the hoop kiln to protect the top of the kiln from rain and make the hoop kiln last longer. Brick hoop kiln has appeared in recent years, which is more durable than clay hoop kiln. There are also many caves that are subdivided according to their uses. For example, in order to prevent theft, a small kiln is built above the front kiln, which is called a high kiln; On one side of the kiln, there is a small kiln that can hide things, called rotary kiln; If the kiln is small, dig a small kiln where the kang is located, called the kang kiln; In order to avoid war, another long and deep hole was dug near Zhuang. The names of caves in residential courtyards are different for different purposes, including guest house kiln, kitchen kiln, barn kiln, firewood kiln, grain kiln, well kiln, grinding kiln, car kiln and so on. Cave dwelling is the cradle of farmers' life. It has played an extremely important role in the reproduction of the people on the Loess Plateau. Cave dwelling is an important cultural heritage of the Chinese nation, a great pioneering work of China's architectural technology, and a "living fossil" of human life history. Xifeng has become the representative of Qingyang cave culture because of its geographical environment.
Edit this folk traditional art
Xifeng in longdong suona is located in the hinterland of Dong Zhiyuan, surrounded by ravines, where ravines, plains, beams and headlands live alone. The unique natural environment, profound cultural background and relatively stable cultural space gave birth to longdong suona, a local folk art with unique connotation. Its unique qupai music style
Department, a huge performance group, widely used in folk music, rich local style and melodious tunes, has become a unique folk music in China, with Xifeng as the center and distributed in Qingcheng County, Huanxian County, Heshui County, Ningxian County, Zhengning County and some towns around zhenyuan county. Longdong suona spread in the Ming Dynasty and has a history of 400 years. It gradually matured from the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China. At the beginning of the founding of the people's Republic of China, there was new vitality; During the "Cultural Revolution", it was swept away as the "Four Old Classics" and gradually fell silent: in the late 1970s, the cultural departments began to sort out and integrate, and longdong suona was revived; The early 1980s was a period of revival and change. After several generations' efforts, it has changed the way of oral transmission in the past, achieved the goal of standardizing musical instruments and unifying tracks, and changed the past situation of "one person and one horn, each playing its own tune". Musicians can attend classes at will, communicate with each other, improve their playing skills and be active in Long Yuan with a brand-new attitude. From 65438 to 0999, the newly created song "Pihong Guahua" played by suona in Xifeng District won the third prize in the ninth national "Stars Award" Gansu participating program selection competition; In 2002, CCTV Heart-to-Heart Art Troupe came to Qingyang to perform, and specially invited Shishi Suona Team 100 people to participate. In 2005, at the opening ceremony of the 4th China Qingyang Box Folk Culture Festival, Xifeng District organized a 80-person Shishe Suona Team to perform. After a hundred years' evolution, longdong suona's main function is to enliven and meet the cultural needs of the mainland masses. It is manifested in folk activities such as marrying a daughter-in-law, funeral ceremonies, village temple fairs, festivals, housewarming, birthday celebrations, giving a baby a full moon, etc., which shows the universality of folk activities. In the red and white weddings and funerals in Longdong area, such as "receiving guests", "seeing off big guests", "marrying new people", "welcoming flowers", "paying homage to the church", "inviting spirits", "going out to tell people", "offering sacrifices to families", "inviting gentlemen", "treating guests", "running newspapers" and so on. Xifeng longdong suona is a collection of folk literature, folk instrumental music, folk manners and customs, local conditions and customs, which is of rare and precious value. Through the melting of history, longdong suona has formed many excellent Qupai, mainly including Wandering in the Top Scholar, Rabbits in the Field, Autumn Life, Endless Mountains, Wind Blowing the Land, Big Party, Duckling, Shili Pavilion, Flying Kites and Meng Jiang. After the founding of New China, suona artists absorbed and reformed folk songs, and outstanding revolutionary songs such as "Mass Production of the Army and the People" and "Flower Drum for the Army" enriched their artistic expressions. Since 1983, with the advocacy of the municipal and district governments and the efforts of professional musicians, he has successively edited and published monographs and papers such as Selected Songs of longdong suona, Investigation Report on the Folklore Etiquette of Red and White Events in Longdong, and Preliminary Exploration of longdong suona. The suona base in Shishe Township was established, and professional teachers such as Liang were specially hired to organize and train folk artists. At present, a backbone team of hundreds of people has been formed and radiated to the surrounding areas. Xifeng Lotus Dance Area is the birthplace of China farming culture initiated by Gong Liu, the ancestor of Zhou Dynasty. The inheritance and farming culture of the Zhou Dynasty is the historical and humanistic environment that breeds the folk lotus dance culture and is a part of the intangible cultural heritage of the world. Lotus dance, which is famous on the world stage and listed as the classic of China folk dance in the 20th century, originated here, and Qingyang was named "the hometown of lotus dance" by the Chinese Folklore Society.
Lotus dance was originally named Yunyunzi and Diyouzi, also known as Dipiaoer, Yunying and Diyunzi. With the change of history, it is also called Runhua Lantern, Lotus Lantern and Lotus Dance. Under the influence of witch culture, the sacrificial activities of the Saishe, which originated from the Zhou clan, became an activity of witch gods seeking rain. There are many temples in Xifeng District, and Taoist culture prevails. Every temple fair or Spring Festival, the social fire team rehearses "clouds". It is an entertainment program that has been preserved for a long time by folk social fire. Lotus dance integrates folk art, music, paper binding and folk art. This folk dance, which is brewed by folk concepts such as Yunyunzi, Yunying and Lotus Lantern, is not only the historical legacy of Xifeng, the source of China's agricultural culture, but also a special product of China's agricultural civilization in the process of national historical development. It is characterized by unique props, dance equipment composed of cloud disks, clouds, oil lamps and lotus flowers, which has strong folk customs and reflects the cultural content of farming activities in Zhou Dynasty. The cloud disk symbolizes rain, the cloud symbolizes world peace, the oil lamp symbolizes abundant grain, and the lotus symbolizes peace and moisture. The concept formed in this way comes from the activities of the competition society in the sacrificial ceremony of the Zhou Dynasty, which symbolizes the ancient farmers' awe of nature, their hope for survival, and the folk concept of good weather and peace and prosperity. The formation of lotus dance has the following changes: the dragon wags its tail, the swallow shuttles and crosses. Its artistic value is that it is vigorous and elegant, light and smooth, so it is also called "floating on the earth" and "wandering around the earth". This artistic expression not only shows the worship of the dragon that dominates the rainfall by the farming people, but also expresses peace with swallows shuttling, the sound of rain falling and scissors crossing formation, expressing the mentality of Chinese culture and the dance creation of the soul. The origin, evolution and inheritance of lotus dance have experienced a long history. There was an artistic infection and psychological buzz among the masses, and at the same time, this influence also spread to Ningxian, Qingcheng, Zhengning and other places in Fiona Fang, which are hundreds of miles around. Its clothes are quaint, the color is bright red and green, the ground is covered with yellow, the clouds are bare, the dance steps are twisted and bent, the oil lamps are flickering, the kung fu is immortal, the lotus on the cloud disk is driven by the waist, the veils are fluttering, and the sleeves are light, just like the lotus swaying on the water. This unique folk dance has high artistic value. Lotus Dance was formed in 1950s. Dai Lai, a famous dancer, took this initiative and named Yunyunzi "Lotus Dance", and won a gold medal in Polish performance. Since then, Lotus Dance has stepped onto the art stage and become one of the reserved programs of China dance art. At the same time, the social fire team in Zhaizi Township, Xifeng District designed new props according to the "Clouds" and added new content to perform social fire performances. In 1990s, the Lotus Dance in Qingyang Normal School was designed and rehearsed as a typical campus culture. At the beginning of this century, "China Qingyang Box Folk Culture and Art Festival" was arranged into a large-scale dance with a lineup of 500 people for three consecutive sessions, which was well received by experts and audiences at home and abroad. Lotus dance originated from Dong Zhiyuan, the ancestor of Zhou Dynasty, and created the farming culture in China. After the establishment of People's Republic of China (PRC), it was promoted to the world dance world by China dance circles. However, its original artistic style was still preserved in the social fire in Xifeng District, and it was adapted into a large-scale dance with 500 people participating in the performance. The origin of lotus dance is of certain research value to the folk inheritance of Zhou Wenhua, and it is more valuable to explore the gentle, elegant and beautiful artistic image bred by China farming culture. In the garden of modern art, beautiful, elegant and warm dance and atmosphere are the dance art preserved by mass cultural activities. Xifeng sachet embroidery is the product of the combination of Huang Qi traditional Chinese medicine culture, Zhou farming culture and folk culture, and it is an art of color and color, cloth and thread, form and spirit. It originated in the slavery era of Xia and Shang Dynasties, and after a long feudal era and semi-feudal and semi-colonial era, it has a primitive flavor and conforms to the pulse of the times. It comes from ancient times. Yangko Yangko, also known as Yangko, is a performance form of singing and dancing accompanied by gongs and drums. It originated in the north, and it is a kind of song and dance produced in farmland. It takes a long time to bend over because of the high labor intensity. In order to eliminate fatigue and relax, people wriggle in the fields at rest. In order to prevent the seedlings from being trampled, they saw the empty needles, so they had the cross step of "Yangko". The mid-1930s was the most active period of yangko. Every festival, people dance yangko, which greatly enriches the content of yangko, as well as yangko opera, yangko singing and so on. In the late 1930s, a number of Yangko literary works with great artistic value appeared. There are two kinds of yangko in Qingyang, one is called yangko and the other is called yangko opera. Yangko only dances without singing, commonly known as "twisting yangko", and always highlights the word "twisting". Those who perform in situ and those who perform on the move. Live performances should change various formations, gather, disperse, combine and move in an orderly way, which looks dazzling and interesting. The number of people performing Yangko can be more or less, with even rows of men and women. There are many kinds of clothes, including workers, farmers, soldiers, students, old people, ugly women, big-headed dolls and so on. Free-handed yangko is a major feature of Qingyang yangko. Without myna props, it is difficult for actors to perform with their bare hands. Others took handkerchiefs, fans, pipes, flowers, sickles and axes. There are many red and green ribbons around the waist, which are like flowers and waves when twisted and dazzling. Yangko opera is different from yangko. It is also characterized by "twisting", but it is just singing and jumping, with plots, but the plot line is relatively simple. Couples' literacy and brothers and sisters' land reclamation, which were popular in Longdong liberated area, are the representative works of this art form. After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), Yangko, a form of literary performance, was widely circulated. People use yangko to celebrate the joy after liberation, people's leaders and new socialist things. Every year, during the Spring Festival, National Day and other important festivals, there are yangko teams, which have become the mainstream and highlight of street cultural activities. In 2002, at the first Qingyang Folk Culture Festival in China, Yang's yangko was an unprecedented event, which opened the eyes of Chinese and foreign guests, especially the unarmed yangko. They said, "A yangko team with tens of thousands of people like this is really rare in China.
Folk festivals
Sachet Culture Festival Qingyang folk have always followed the traditional habits. During the Dragon Boat Festival, it is more auspicious to make sachets by clever women than to give them or wear them by hand. Every Dragon Boat Festival, some folk artists will display homemade sachets for sale in the street. 1992 Xifeng Cultural Center held the second "Xifeng Sachet Embroidery Competition". This time, the number of sachet authors rose to more than 100, with thousands of works. The quality and variety of works have been obviously improved and increased, and some folk sachet works have been excavated and sorted out. Since then, Xifeng Cultural Center has held a sachet embroidery competition every year. With the continuous growth of sachet writers, the obvious improvement of sachet quality and the excavation of many folk cultural resources, we have accumulated many years of successful experience in holding sachet embroidery competition. In 20001year, the former Xifeng municipal party Committee and municipal government tried to hold the sachet festival as a folk cultural activity of Duanyang Festival, and held the "Xifeng first sachet folk cultural festival", which was a great success.
