What are the characteristics of Shanxi folk houses?

Shanxi folk houses have the same characteristics as traditional folk houses in other areas: they live together, face south, and pay attention to internal lighting; Wood beam bearing, brick, stone, soil wall; Focusing on the main hall, he is good at carving beams and painting buildings, decorating roofs and cornices.

Shanxi folk houses are an important school of traditional folk houses in China. Among the dwellings in China, Shanxi dwellings are as famous as those in southern Anhui, and there has always been a saying that there is Shanxi in the north and southern Anhui in the south.

Among Shanxi's folk houses, the most abundant and gorgeous ones are those around Fenhe River, and the most representative ones in Fenhe River Basin are Qixian and Pingyao.

Zhao Cheng Huozhou house occupies more land than Jiexiu. Zhao Chengjia's eaves gallery is full of wood carvings, and the yard is full of beautiful things. Although the house is large, the communication is very good, because the wing and the main room are connected, so it can pass.

Rich people's houses in villas, a village can have two or three houses, which are far apart, and still make people imagine the arrogance of that year. It occupies a large area of the ground, the height of the external wall, the exquisite craftsmanship of masonry and wood, and the complexity of pavilions and other courtyards are all unexpected. South of Lingshi, there are several mountain villas in Fenshui, with their backs to the water, which are not suitable for farming. Among them, the rich are all from other provinces, and when they get rich, they come back to build houses to show off their clans.

The architectural style is the same as other dwellings in Shanxi, but it is closer to the official style of Beiping, and the workmanship is extremely perfect. The stone buildings on the outer wall are amazing, and there is also the so-called "100-foot building", in which the outer wall of the house is built on a cliff and the building lives on it. Looking from outside the village, you can still see from more than ten miles away. Standing hundreds of feet away, Cui Wei is amazing, which is the glory of architecture.

The houses on the farm are all in a small village, and the rich farmers in the village often have extremely exquisite houses. This kind of house is the same as the "tile house" in the northern city, which is based on the "four heads" and distributed in the form of screen doors and hanging doors. There are four points that are most different from what Peiping usually sees:

1. On the plane, it is assumed that the main building faces south, and the positions of the east wing and the west wing are within the width of the north wing, so that the main building becomes a narrow strip in the north-south direction and loses its square shape. Of course, this arrangement saves a lot of land on the plane and is more economical than moving the wings out of the main room. Because of this, the roofs (mostly flat roofs) of the main room and the wing are very easy to contact, and the stone ladder can be located at the northern end of the wing, sandwiched between the main room and the wing. In a certain journey, it can be divided into two sides, one side turns to the wing top, and the other side can reach the main top in a few steps.

Second, although it is a tile house, it is still a flat-topped brick kiln, leaving only sloping blue tiles on the front porch or eaves. Viewed from the side, it looks like a brick wall with "rain" in front.

Third, the appearance impression of the house is the same as that of the so-called three-bay room, but the interior is still three caves, and the kiln room also uses a connecting door, which is completely different from the ordinary room.

Fourth, the parapet at the back of the house is made into a tower-shaped arrow pile, so that the back of the whole house looks straight into a fortress from the outside.
