歷史文化
這是一座(zuo)(zuo)典型的漢式寺廟(miao)，格(ge)局簡煉(lian)。一如(ru)隨(sui)意(yi)散落在(zai)(zai)江南某(mou)個小鎮的庵院廟(miao)堂，但(dan)是稍(shao)加留意(yi)便可看出這座(zuo)(zuo)寺廟(miao)的氣度與(yu)眾(zhong)不同(tong)。首先廟(miao)前高(gao)懸的道(dao)幡(fan)說明這是一座(zuo)(zuo)道(dao)教寺廟(miao)，這在(zai)(zai)熱河(he)街(jie)上可謂鳳毛麟角。遍布避暑山莊(zhuang)周圍的多為藏(zang)傳佛(fo)教寺廟(miao)，而修建這樣一座(zuo)(zuo)道(dao)教寺廟(miao)則是出于對漢族群眾(zhong)宗教信仰(yang)的尊重，同(tong)時由乾隆欽定(ding)“熱河(he)都城隍廟(miao)”似可說明古熱河(he)在(zai)(zai)當時社會的政治地位。
熱(re)河(he)都城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)黃琉(liu)璃披(pi)頂(ding)，彩飾飛(fei)揚，有意(yi)無(wu)意(yi)地(di)(di)顯示它傲(ao)然(ran)于(yu)各(ge)地(di)(di)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)的(de)尊貴。現內設神(shen)(shen)像(xiang)(xiang)近九十(shi)座(zuo)(zuo)，除“天(tian)(tian)下(xia)第一城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)”外(wai)，其余各(ge)殿(dian)(dian)供(gong)奉(feng)文、武(wu)(wu)、義、財神(shen)(shen)、孔子(zi)、朱(zhu)熹(xi)、文昌帝(di)君和極(ji)具(ju)特色(se)的(de)六(liu)十(shi)甲子(zi)神(shen)(shen)。主(zhu)(zhu)體建筑福蔭嚴疆(jiang)殿(dian)(dian)供(gong)奉(feng)著一尊城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)坐(zuo)像(xiang)(xiang)，面目慈善，號稱“天(tian)(tian)下(xia)第一城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)”。傳(chuan)說(shuo)(shuo)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)神(shen)(shen)是(shi)康熙(xi)(xi)皇(huang)(huang)帝(di)十(shi)七(qi)皇(huang)(huang)子(zi)允(yun)(yun)禮(li)(li)，允(yun)(yun)禮(li)(li)自幼(you)豁(huo)達(da)(da)識(shi)體，不(bu)參與皇(huang)(huang)權之(zhi)爭(zheng)。且又(you)聰(cong)明持重(zhong)，政績(ji)斐(fei)(fei)然(ran)。他死后，乾隆帝(di)深感若(ruo)失股(gu)肱。乾隆三(san)十(shi)七(qi)年(nian)值工(gong)(gong)部(bu)尚書(shu)周(zhou)禮(li)(li)元(yuan)理奏請修(xiu)建熱(re)河(he)都城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)，乾隆下(xia)旨撥款施工(gong)(gong)，封(feng)允(yun)(yun)禮(li)(li)為(wei)(wei)(wei)熱(re)河(he)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)神(shen)(shen)。 這是(shi)一座(zuo)(zuo)典型的(de)漢式寺廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao),格(ge)局簡煉。一如隨意(yi)散落在江(jiang)南某個(ge)小鎮的(de)庵院廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)堂,但是(shi)稍加留(liu)意(yi)便可看(kan)(kan)出這座(zuo)(zuo)寺廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)的(de)氣度(du)與眾(zhong)(zhong)不(bu)同。 首先廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)前高懸的(de)道幡說(shuo)(shuo)明這是(shi)一座(zuo)(zuo)道教(jiao)寺廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao),這在熱(re)河(he)街上(shang)可謂鳳(feng)毛(mao)麟角。遍布避暑山(shan)莊周(zhou)圍(wei)的(de)多為(wei)(wei)(wei)藏(zang)傳(chuan)佛教(jiao)寺廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao),而修(xiu)建這樣一座(zuo)(zuo)道教(jiao)寺廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)則是(shi)出于(yu)對漢族(zu)群眾(zhong)(zhong)宗教(jiao)信仰的(de)尊重(zhong),同時由乾隆欽定“熱(re)河(he)都城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)”似(si)可說(shuo)(shuo)明古熱(re)河(he)在當(dang)時社會的(de)政治地(di)(di)位。熱(re)河(he)都城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)黃琉(liu)璃披(pi)頂(ding),彩飾飛(fei)揚,有意(yi)無(wu)意(yi)地(di)(di)顯示它傲(ao)然(ran)于(yu)各(ge)地(di)(di)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)的(de)尊貴。現內設神(shen)(shen)像(xiang)(xiang)近九十(shi)座(zuo)(zuo),除“天(tian)(tian)下(xia)第一城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)”外(wai),其余各(ge)殿(dian)(dian)供(gong)奉(feng)文、武(wu)(wu)、義、財神(shen)(shen)、孔子(zi)、朱(zhu)熹(xi)、文昌帝(di)君和極(ji)具(ju)特色(se)的(de)六(liu)十(shi)甲子(zi)神(shen)(shen)。主(zhu)(zhu)體建筑福蔭嚴疆(jiang)殿(dian)(dian)供(gong)奉(feng)著一尊城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)坐(zuo)像(xiang)(xiang),面目慈善,號稱“天(tian)(tian)下(xia)第一城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)”。 傳(chuan)說(shuo)(shuo)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)神(shen)(shen)是(shi)康熙(xi)(xi)皇(huang)(huang)帝(di)十(shi)七(qi)皇(huang)(huang)子(zi)允(yun)(yun)禮(li)(li),允(yun)(yun)禮(li)(li)自幼(you)豁(huo)達(da)(da)識(shi)體,不(bu)參與皇(huang)(huang)權之(zhi)爭(zheng)。且又(you)聰(cong)明持重(zhong),政績(ji)斐(fei)(fei)然(ran)。他死后,乾隆帝(di)深感若(ruo)失股(gu)肱。乾隆三(san)十(shi)七(qi)年(nian)值工(gong)(gong)部(bu)尚書(shu)周(zhou)禮(li)(li)元(yuan)理奏請修(xiu)建熱(re)河(he)都城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao),乾隆下(xia)旨撥款施工(gong)(gong),封(feng)允(yun)(yun)禮(li)(li)為(wei)(wei)(wei)熱(re)河(he)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)神(shen)(shen)。 城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)現為(wei)(wei)(wei)承德(de)市為(wei)(wei)(wei)數不(bu)多的(de)一家道教(jiao)寺廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao),風格(ge)有別于(yu)外(wai)八(ba)廟(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao)(miao),很值得一看(kan)(kan)。
城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang),起源于(yu)古(gu)代的水(隍(huang))庸(城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng))的祭(ji)祀,為(wei)(wei)《周(zhou)宮》八神(shen)之一。“城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)”原指挖(wa)土筑的高墻(qiang),“隍(huang)”原指沒有水的護(hu)(hu)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)壕。古(gu)人造(zao)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)是為(wei)(wei)了保(bao)護(hu)(hu)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)內百姓的安全(quan),所以修(xiu)了高大的城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)墻(qiang)、城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)樓(lou)、城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)門以及壕城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)、護(hu)(hu)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)河。他們(men)認(ren)為(wei)(wei)與人們(men)的生活(huo)、生產(chan)安全(quan)密切相關的事物,都有神(shen)在,于(yu)是城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)和隍(huang)被神(shen)化(hua)為(wei)(wei)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)市的保(bao)護(hu)(hu)神(shen)。道(dao)教把它納入(ru)自己的神(shen)系,稱它是剪(jian)除兇惡、保(bao)國護(hu)(hu)邦之神(shen),并管領陰間的亡(wang)魂。
城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)是自(zi)然神,凡(fan)有城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)池(chi)者,就建(jian)有城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)廟。最(zui)早的城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)廟見(jian)于三(san)國(guo)吳赤(chi)烏二年(nian)(239)建(jian)的蕪湖城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)廟。歷史上有唐人張(zhang)說、李德裕、李陽冰、杜牧等(deng)祭(ji)祀(si)(si)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)神的文(wen)獻記(ji)載。宋代以后(hou),城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)開始(shi)人格化、多以去世后(hou)的英雄(xiong)或(huo)名臣(chen)奉為(wei)(wei)(wei)(wei)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)神,如蘇州(zhou)(zhou)祀(si)(si)戰國(guo)時春(chun)申君(jun)黃歇,上海(hai)祀(si)(si)秦裕伯,北京祀(si)(si)文(wen)天祥、楊椒山(shan),杭(hang)州(zhou)(zhou)祀(si)(si)周新,會稽祀(si)(si)龐王,南寧、桂林祀(si)(si)蘇緘等(deng)。后(hou)唐末(mo)帝清泰元(yuan)年(nian)(934)封(feng)(feng)(feng)(feng)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)為(wei)(wei)(wei)(wei)王爵。明太(tai)(tai)祖洪(hong)武(wu)元(yuan)年(nian)(1368)則下(xia)旨(zhi)封(feng)(feng)(feng)(feng)開封(feng)(feng)(feng)(feng)、臨(lin)濠、束和(he)、平滁(chu)四城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)的城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)為(wei)(wei)(wei)(wei)王,職(zhi)(zhi)位正(zheng)一(yi)(yi)品(pin),與人間(jian)(jian)的太(tai)(tai)師、太(tai)(tai)傅、太(tai)(tai)保“三(san)公(gong)”和(he)左、右(you)丞相平級,又(you)封(feng)(feng)(feng)(feng)各(ge)府(fu)、州(zhou)(zhou)、縣(xian)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)為(wei)(wei)(wei)(wei)公(gong)、侯(hou)、伯,即府(fu)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)為(wei)(wei)(wei)(wei)監察(cha)司氏(shi)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)威靈公(gong),職(zhi)(zhi)位正(zheng)二品(pin)；州(zhou)(zhou)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)為(wei)(wei)(wei)(wei)監察(cha)司氏(shi)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)顯佑侯(hou),職(zhi)(zhi)位正(zheng)三(san)品(pin)；縣(xian)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)為(wei)(wei)(wei)(wei)監察(cha)司氏(shi)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)顯佑伯,職(zhi)(zhi)位正(zheng)四品(pin),并(bing)且重(zhong)建(jian)各(ge)地城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)廟,規模高廣與當地官署(shu)衙(ya)門(men)完全(quan)一(yi)(yi)樣,還按級別配制冕旒哀(ai)服。明太(tai)(tai)祖洪(hong)武(wu)三(san)年(nian)(1370)正(zheng)祀(si)(si)典,詔去封(feng)(feng)(feng)(feng)號,只稱“某府(fu)或(huo)某縣(xian)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)之(zhi)神,又(you)令各(ge)地城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)廟不得雜(za)祀(si)(si)其他之(zhi)神。據(ju)說明太(tai)(tai)祖朱元(yuan)璋出(chu)生在土(tu)地廟里,所以他對土(tu)地廟以及土(tu)地的“上司”城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)極(ji)為(wei)(wei)(wei)(wei)崇敬。明孝宗年(nian)間(jian)(jian)(1488—1506),莆田抗(kang)元(yuan)英雄(xiong)陳文(wen)龍(1232—1277)被封(feng)(feng)(feng)(feng)為(wei)(wei)(wei)(wei)福(fu)州(zhou)(zhou)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)爺,其從叔抗(kang)元(yuan)英雄(xiong)陳瓚(1232—1277)被封(feng)(feng)(feng)(feng)為(wei)(wei)(wei)(wei)興(xing)化府(fu)城(cheng)(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)(huang)爺。
