August 13, 2002, Yixian County Hongcun, Nanping, Guan Lu, Qi Yun village exceptionally fresh morning air, I came out from the hotel, walking in the lanes have been busy a lot of the locals opened up and . Through the fields, Jing Zhichao small hillside pavilions of villages around, Everywhere distance, Xidi Maung close eye to make a low field of vision is a typical Huizhou style architecture, giving a relaxed and happy. About seven o'clock or so, I went back to hotel, pick up a good backpack Mix with the other two left the hotel, walked toward Cuntou. In the village and saw built in the Ming Wanli Hu light of the provincial governor archway, and this was the best time to take pictures because there are very early, not a single tourist, I photographed a lone standing on the decorated archway Xidi Cuntou the provincial governor.
Soon, they come to a car, we stopped the car, after some bargaining, the three men to Hongcun total of 25 yuan, half an hour later, we went to the Hongcun, bought tickets for 55 yuan, with guided tours toward South Lake walked. South Lake on a bridge, "Crouching Tiger" in Chow Yun-Fat Qian Ma lens is shot here. Here is Hongcun one of the most beautiful scenery, but also a sign of Hongcun, so that by the number of visitors Hongcun's pictured in this photo, the reflection of the bridge and the deck together, beautiful.
To follow the tour guide came to a college outside, which is the "South Lake College," is now the best preserved of the clan school, many of the famous early Hongcun are studying here, such as the early Republican Secretary of State agents, WANG Da-Sop, Huizhou wealthy Wang received in this setting your initial education EPR. Runs through the village is the "cow intestines," "cow intestines" flowing into every household, to the villagers brought a lot of convenience, in the past, Wang's ancestors set clan rules before 8 o'clock every morning, " cow intestines "Water for drinking, after eight before they can disperse wash. Not only solve the draft problem, but also regulates the temperature of the village, but also can be used as water from fire service, which fully embodies the wisdom Hongcun predecessors. Twists and turns along the "cow intestines", went to the village center, that is, "cow stomach", so-called "cow stomach" is one of more than 1000 square meters of the big pond, and also because it is like half of light, hence the name "Moon marsh." "On marsh," built in the Ming Yongle period, when the chair is constructed Hongcun Xidi married wife of Wang Xin Hu heavy mother, because the previous Hongcun feng shui is not good, she would ask for the well-known feng shui that her father, Mr. a close friend of Ho up to Surveying and Planning. The proposed construction of a reservoir in the village, the original plans to build a reservoir for the round, while the re-niang Hu that "flowers are ups and downs, Yue-ying the loss", so, in her proposal, to build on half-moon pond on the so know that today is still half-moon of the.
Hongcun most famous buildings in the course ought to "Chengzhi hall", and Yixian County in the existing Ming and Qing dynasties nearly 4000 residential buildings, from large-scale, rational layout, structure, perfect facilities, well-made and so on to a comprehensive assessment of , when the devaluation, "Chengzhi Church." Chengzhi Tong, Qing Wang set your big salt merchants in 1855 after the construction of a private house, dating back about 140 years. Chengzhi Hall covers an area of 2100 square meters, construction area of 3,000 square meters, the house has seven floors, 9 "patio", 60-odd living room, the 136 wooden pillars. Whole-house exceptionally Center, inside the hospital lobby after church, East and West car, study hall, small living room, corridor, kitchen; in pleasure-seeking, there were gardens, Guan Yu hall, dedicated to mahjong playing the "tiers Corner", the specialized used for smoking opium, "swallowing Yun Xuan." In addition, there are bodyguards room, servant room, Jing Tai, in warehouses, storerooms, stables and so on. All these show that the Chengzhi Hall large-scale, fully equipped by other Huizhou style architecture can not be compared.
Chengzhi Hall The most prominent feature is reflected in it has a large number of wooden art treasures, more focused, completely embodies the ancient Chinese arts and crafts, wood characteristics and skills. Church compound into anything else, the eyes of the touch, is full of hollow wood doors and windows. And into the hall, Everywhere you look around, up and down about is full of wood carvings, people feel like arriving in a museum exhibits a wealth of wood carving craft, and even some people said: "The Church can not come to anything else, you do not know what is wood carving." As Wang set your fortune in business, took the money donated "a five-product sub-prefect," the rank, he feels that the difference with other businessmen have a class, so at home in the lobby door, the addition of an instrument door, which kinds of construction in Huizhou is a very rare, according to differences in levels of walking a different door. At the same time, Wang set the door of your instrument on both sides of the side door on each carved a "commercial" character, no matter what the level of people to be from the "business" after the word below, after all, in a feudal society, business is a cheap business.
Chengzhi Hall carvings, most complex level, the characters are many and the people are different surface is different from God, even the experts from the National Palace Museum, also can not help whom gave high praise, saying that these carvings treasures, in the concentrated essence of ancient architecture in China Forbidden City , Summer Palace can not see, so Chengzhi Tong is "folk National Palace Museum," said.
After visiting the church in anything else, we follow the guide also looked at several residential buildings, there is the beginning of Chengde Tong Jian Yuqing, it differs with Chengzhi wooden church, the basic color for the logs, both reflect the material's known, also revealed that out of a deep and heavy, and since the beginning of Chengde Tong Jian Yuqing reflects the late Ming and early Qing dynasties of the two architectural style. There Jian Yuqing Jiaqing between Germany and Italy together, it is the ancient Chinese Room feature-rich home, because the ancestral hall, Germany and Italy are the intellectuals, the Church of Germany and Italy so different from the business of residential construction. Another between the years of the Qing Xianfeng, Dr. Wang Feng G Star Poly housing, although with a variety of characteristics of residential Hongcun Chinese Room, however, is its extraordinary whole building housing a hexagon-shaped homestead.
We came as a horn of the village and the two old trees, a red Yang, one of two ginkgo trees are 400 years of age. Hongcun Another feature of the students who come here to paint a lot, we encountered several groups, each are carrying my portfolio, in every corner of the village sit casually, and started painting again.

Hongcun to go through from the Yixian County, Nanping, Hongcun 10 kilometers away from Yixian County, Yixian County, 4 km from Nanping. As Nanping has not yet fully developed, it is not a good way to go, more bumpy ride, half an hour later, I went to the Nan-ping. Nanping Village tickets are 20 yuan.

Nanping Village in the most unique aspect is the ancestral temple, where the ancestral separation "Chan family shrine," "branch temple", "ancestral hall" all the houses are built around the family's ancestral temple, which is the main features of Nanping. Another feature of the village of Nanping Shenxiang walls, shaped like a maze, said the non-village people to walk here at night is very easy to get lost. Village to see first is the "Yip branch temple" in the shrine there are a large number of film "Crouching Tiger" photos, the play has a lot of shots are taken here. A person walking in the alley, the overcast deeply, very horrible, an hour later, I returned to the parking lot, down a destination forward - off foot.

" Swim off foot, I was traveling back to the Yixian County.
In the bus station waiting for a train to go to my next stop - Qi Yun. From the Yixian take to Tunxi get off the car can stop in Qi Yun, tickets 4 yuan. So far, Tang Qi Yun only two, one from the foot of the mountain by cable car to look Xianting Qi Yun-cum-ticket, up 26 per cableway; second look inside from the drop-off point 1.5 kilometers away, after walking up the hill Dengfeng Bridge, channel six pavilions, arriving Qiyun Mountain ticket office, ticket 38.

After Dengfeng bridge, began a tour of my Qi Yun, here visitors very little study of its origins, Gein from the Huangshan is also near the so. At this time, hot weather, climbing many sweat from time to time to come up with a towel wipe their sweat. Soon, saw a Montagnards, asked: "How far to reach the hill?" The answer was: "After six went to the pavilion." I have gone through the first one This pavilion, there are five, first rest. At this point, the mountains have remained silent, can only hear the birds singing and the vitis is to be the Song dynasty poet Wang Ji's "Chanzao forest more than quiet, more secluded mountain bird." Take a look at the table, the hour is late, to continue climbing, about 45 minutes later, reached the sixth pavilion - wangxian Pavilion. Bought a ticket, the ticket office has also had work.
