Visit Panjiawan Village in Luotian

/kloc-in the afternoon of April, 2003, my photographer and I set off from Xinzhou and drove 150 km to the ancient village of Panjiawan. It is said that the terraces here are very good, and it is also a place where photographers often come to shoot. But I still came a little early. According to villagers, it will take half a month to start releasing water from terraces. Now there is no water, and the terraced fields are not beautiful, which affects the shooting effect. Panjiawan Village is located in the northeast of Luotian County, deep in Dabie Mountain, at the foot of the dog's ear tip in the northwest of Baimiaohe Township. It was formed in the Ming Dynasty, and its original ecology remained intact. In 20 13, Panjiawan village was listed as the second batch of "traditional villages in China". The well-preserved remains of the ancient city wall in the village are vivid. According to historical records, there used to be forts, observation posts and houses in the city, with four gates, east, west, north and south, more than 3,000 meters long. There are still ancient stockade walls built in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Panjiawan Village has a long history. 1 103, under the leadership of Pan, the village head, immigrants from Waxiba Town, Jiangxi Province moved here. People living in this area formed a natural village according to the structure of human parts during this period. There are three mountains and two water systems in the village, which gave birth to the descendants of Panjiawan Village.

The main village where more than 40 families in the third group of Panjiawan Village are located is a traditional village with a long history, with earth walls and tiles, criss-crossing buildings, terraced fields, swaying bamboo forests and simple folk customs. There are Yangjia Ancestral Temple and thousands of feet Waterfall in the main book village, complete ancient city wall 100 meters, and batteries and trenches can be seen everywhere.

600 years of village history, 40 adobe houses 194, and now only 10 families live in them.

Simple adobe houses, simple folk customs ... People from cities are flocking, breathing fresh air and looking for the heritage of ancient villages.

The 300-acre ancient terraced fields connected together meander from top to bottom, waiting for the spectacular sight of water and sky when the plough rings.

On the way into the hut, there are also many natural scenery on the beach by the roadside. Stop shooting when you meet, and shoot in the countryside. Enjoy the pastoral time.
