Brief introduction of Xijingyu village

Xijingyu Village, Chengguan Town, Jixian County, Tianjin

Xijingyu Village, which is only 2.5 kilometers away from the urban area, is located behind Junshan Mountain, a famous historical and cultural mountain, and belongs to the category of Middle-Upper Proterozoic National Geopark. Surrounded by mountains and trees, the scenery is unique and the air is pleasant. What is particularly unique is the stone landscape with rich cultural heritage, which is dizzying and amazing! The ancient stone courtyard, stone house, stone lane and stone road in the village are antique heritage; God-given terraced stone dams, cliff gullies, bare stone steep slopes and pictographic peaks surround them, and the scenery is charming.

For hundreds of years, the hard-working and kind-hearted Yumin in Xijing is separated from the bustling world by a mountain, but he is addicted to the hard-working and leisurely life of "dropping rice and falling pine nuts in the mountain", building a stone dam to plant trees and farm the land, building it by the mountain, and settling down, making this little-known mountain village a fascinating place of feng shui. In recent years, many celebrities in the art world and news media frequently patronize and have a special liking. General Shao Hua, Chairman of China Photographers Association, learned that the first photography village in Beijing and Tianjin was about to be born, and he was still recuperating in the hospital, and readily agreed to write the name of the village himself. Xie Jin, a famous director, Feng Jicai, a famous writer, painter and folklore expert, came here to choose location for the film The Story of the Stone. The "Four monsoon rains" column of Tianjin TV Station filmed many feature films such as "Photographers Entering the Mountain Village" here; It is in this small mountain village that before the Spring Festival in 2005, CCTV filmed a music video for the famous singer Yan Weiwen, which was broadcast on many channels during the Spring Festival. Dozens of photographers like Jie Hailong, Chang Jinsheng, Liu Haifeng, Feng Weilie, Cui Maoyuan, Mo Yi, Wang Yulai and Lei Ping flocked to the village, and some of them stayed in the village more than once to create and guide the construction.

There are ancient shows hidden in the mountains and incense in the stone. In order to show the unique artistic creation and tourism resources of Xijingyu Village to the world, Xijingyu people responded to the call of Jixian County Party Committee and County Government, and with the joint support of Chengguan Town Party Committee and Government and Tianjin Mass Art Museum, from the beginning of 2005, according to the model of "five scenic spots, ten pavilions and thirty courtyards", they made every effort to build a brand-new artistic creation base and folk tourism resort.
