"Thoughts on Living Water Pavilion concept"
Half an acre of a Kam Kai-Fang Tang,
Sunlight and white clouds were hovering,
Q. Which drains so clear expectations,
To have the source of flowing water to.
This is a well-known Southern Song Dynasty Neo-Confucian Zhu Xi Wuyuan poem praising his hometown.
Calm, clear rivers, stars, black tiles white walls of the Huizhou style architecture, stretching hundred miles of the Cha Kwo Ling, honest and morals is the most realistic portrayal of Wuyuan, but also my most profound experience of Wuyuan.

(C) Li Hang, Wang mouth

We came to the bridge at dusk water people - Li Hang, did not expect the village is still crowded at this time, entrance to the village to stop a lot of coaches, tell us here have become hot spots. Village visited 10 yuan / person, the village crowded with tourists, and the crowd's noise disturbed the quiet village, only silently through the village of the river is still flowing. With a few small wooden bridge, stone bridge connecting the village north and south, small bridges, reflection and the shore, the ancient home of the Sha beautiful woman to attract a large number of photography enthusiasts. The village inn filled, and a cute little boy with his maternal grandparents, we come to Murao, two swallows in the nest tending to do Flying Swallow Li roof, they fly around us, looked at us with curiosity. Lee came to us to listen to presentations, we came to the vicinity of Lee Ji-Cheng (Southern Song Dynasty knight) house, Lee backyard with trees five hundred years of the Crape Myrtle trees, tree trunks and a half remaining trees, but the whole tree is still flourish light scratch the bark with your fingers , all the tree branches and leaves will be shaking like a tickle in general, the hospital corner of the ancient fungus grows on trees with a few huge fungus, fresh cute. Li Hang villagers deep cultural grounding, in every family to be reflected in the wonderful couplet, such as Li Hang Chun Oi Tong's "stacked drum hanging lamps Ye Han Chun shallow, calm the mind, seek to write upon sentence-tang," and Lee the old man home "the mountains are not Chiaki ink paintings, green water without strings 10000 Guqin "is a picturesque portrayal of Wuyuan. Li tasting evening at a farm in delicious dishes, we have three of rafting on the river, cool breeze, starry, light boat waves, tremendous freehand. The next morning, we farewell to the old man Lee, Xiaguang fog, the small village to restore the tranquility of the past, only this time in order to reflect the beauty of Hang Li, cornices Qiaojiao winding ancient dwellings in the mountains between, just like a Ming and Qing Dynasties ink-wash painting.
Heard of the movie "Sparkling Red Star" is Wuyuan shoot, and we take the bamboo raft, understand "the little bamboo raft the middle river, towering Aoyama sides to go," the clear stream bottom, a bamboo pole inserted into water, water depth-to-know 3 meters, here we are marveling at the beauty of mountains and rivers, boatman told us that there are raging quiet river, when 98-year floods washed away the village a century wooden bridge. Wang Hau Tsuen, the most famous is the Yu Ancestral Hall, covers an area of more than 1000 square meters, the Qing Dynasty style axis Xieshan ancestral hall where the wooden structures were within the carving Zhuo Qiao, there are a variety of shapes and patterns Dazhong Xiao more than 100 groups, craft exquisite, wonderful workmanship excelling nature, known as "First Jiangnan wood."

(D) dawn onwards, Jiang Ling, Qing sources, duanxin reservoir

The upper and lower dawn onwards Wuyuan culture and eco-village, surrounded by old trees, two rivers converging at this. Gu Zhang: thick tree trunks up to six individuals in order to encircle; Shuangjing Yin-Yue: Furui water, sweet and delicious, with tasty chicken as food for thought here. General Secretary Jiang Zemin retained the ancestral home intact, his ancestors have done a Qing Yangzhou salt, after his family moved to Yangzhou. Today's upper and lower dawn from the same village has been bustling crowd upsets the loss of its former charm.
Truck in the rugged mountain road bumps with no way affect our appreciation of beautiful landscapes. During this steep mountain, we appreciate the scenery, we must also be careful of low branches being greeted by the scratch. Intersection of the two vehicles when a vehicle must be stopped, one side is on the hill side is a river or reservoir, are often turning ninety degrees, the stimulus is like a roller coaster ride. . The car from the bottom up about 1 hour since dawn, we arrived at Jiangling, enjoy a magnificent terrace. Terraced fields, such as chains like band, from the foot has been twisted to the summit, layer upon layer, high and low scattered. Green seedlings in the wind Qing Wu, intoxicated.
From Jiang Ling to kyongwon half-hour drive. Qing Yuen is the typical landscape of ancient villages, and Lee Hang landscape similar, but less noise, a stream had to wear the village, historic houses, bridges, ancient ginkgo tree ... ... sitting in "beauty through" to enjoy all of this, Manasarovar. Kyongwon remote villages due to the road difficult, and few visitors now, roads are being heard, I am afraid the future will be lost in this tranquil village with ancient charm.
Kyongwon not find lodging in the place we went to duanxin hydropower Guest House accommodation. Enjoy the mountains in the twilight of Pinghu (duanxin Reservoir) is also a wonderful feeling. The afterglow of sunset sprinkled on the surface of the lake, in the lakes and mountains in the golden rafting, great fun.

(5) Spring Village, Hsitou Village, Li Hang

Da Da Koudao from Sichuan, along the way peak and valley deep beauty, jianxi clear Bitou, forest vegetation phase hybrid. Verdant everywhere. Falls attracted several Xianxiu amazed us, conductor with disdain that "the scene of my house more attractive than here." Then he told us about how the beauty of the mountains, but due to steep mountain Lu Yao, visitors have been scarce. Remember kyongwon beauty, we have decided today to take a look at the natives of the village. Calm and simple villagers, the village took us to appreciate the strange spring tree, the ancient lounge bridges, and brawny Lohan trees, gurgling streams are reflected upside on top, forming a unique and beautiful rural scenery.
The fellow surnamed Ye, and we respectfully called him "leaves Big Brother." Ye brother living in Hsitou Village (along the line here is not Hsitou Township), is said to be the highest elevation of the village in Wuyuan, Hsitou Qinglin village looming in the trees between the entrance to the village there are Several Strains of tall, imposing yew, pine trees bamboo powder wall interaction with the Daiwa lining shadows trail beams, and Tuan Tuan water glorified. Here fog over high mountains, so a good quality tea, tea with Qinglie river water, exceptionally sweet. As our brother wading leaves a winding stream, a waterfall and to the roar; we surprised, and the play behind, leaves Big Brother see we have such a high mood, but also worked tirelessly to lead us to rock climbing, climbed to the upper edge of the waterfall , a spectacular waterfall appeared, we have been photographed, I wanted to rob in the dark before the photo is beautiful everywhere. The sky was getting late and we had to give up mountain climbing to enjoy even more spectacular, such as Great Falls of the high drop. Big Brother evening hospitality leaves a dinner with the rich farmers greeted us, although from the Da River to the village Hsitou akin to finding away, but the scenery and previously went to a few ancient villages totally different, very suitable for adventure tourism like a friend. Such gentle calm and tranquility, open and far-reaching and paradise-like beauty, blow people away.
As the village Hsitou a daily 5:01 am shuttle to Wuyuan, next morning, we braved the torrential rain out of here, rainwater rushed into the soil tucked streams, the original crystal-clear stream water pollution, snarled rush towards valley, we came to the rain village ─ Shi Huan Li Hang. Li Hang Li source was originally called, was built in the Southern Song Dynasty, in the Ming and Qing Dynasties out of a lot of chancery, they grow old and return home, built in the village after the official Zuozuo home, in an opposite corner cornices, "three-carving" exquisite workmanship, design implication Meaningful, more than three into the courtyard, the door step 3, the high threshold means that in her capacity as high. Here, the villagers know that the book up to science, neighborhood comity, the villagers would guide the story of thousands of years ago with his right, and both make you feel worthy of the name "argument the source."

(Vi) sikou, extending the village, thinking Creek, Zhang Village, Wangcun

At noon, we came to think of User mouth of my friends recommended guest house hospitality Sure enough, the owner of a well-deserved reputation, here and Hsitou, like eat to live good, inexpensive, can enjoy free guided tours. In the afternoon, we went to visit the extension Creek Village and thinking. Extension of the existing village of 56 historic buildings, is well-known merchants courtyard groups, each hospital's gate house is a "commercial", per household are high-rise walls, there is the role of fire, front yard are "owned by four water-tang "Most of the rain water from the door into the hidden on both sides of the home, the sun and rain spill into the courtyard, there are" fertile water must not flow outside the people, "saying; the ancient architects of intelligent use of soft-shelled turtles ability to drill holes so that they chisel out of sewers, due to turtle longevity, it is capable many, many years, which it has carved into the sewer will not be blocked, and maintained courtyard clean. Even more wonderful is that, where every household to similarities, in the rainy day, the villagers take the family to wear at home, there is simply no umbrella, and the non-stick mud feet.
Sikou Zhang north of the village were without Wangcun biography, guest houses, Wang came to the girl of my friends took us to this tour, where picturesque, Shochiku stretching, cornices Qiaojiao of ancient dwellings in the mountains between the winding ; Unfortunately Zhangcun Nazuo beautiful wooden bridge yesterday, the storm washed away, and we missed seeing the heroic. Here, by boat, after reaching the other side of the ancient post road through the mountains and went to the Wangcun. On the road can pick wild mountain Yangmei quench their thirst, tastes great.
