I heard that the Qin family's old house in the online celebrity drama "Si Teng" was shot in Huishan Ancient Town, Wuxi. What are the specific attractions?

In the drama Siteng, the scene of Qin Zuju was taken from the exterior of Huishan ancient town in Wuxi. The scene of Huishan ancient town in TV series mainly includes four places: Lu Qian (a), Yangoufang ancestral hall (b), the first floor of Xishan (c) and Sitangjing (d). These four scenes of Huishan ancient town are not newly built in the ancient town, but buildings and scenic spots with a long history, and there are historical stories behind them.

The Old House of Qin Family —— Airport Garden and Lu Qian In the TV series "Si Teng", the old house of Qin family appears the most frequently. In real life, this old house of the Qin family is located in Fang Chao and Lu Qian, Jichang Garden in Huishan Ancient Town, which are two quadrangle ancestral halls connected together, in which Fang Chao of Jichang Garden faces the gate of Jichang Garden on the cross street of Huishan Ancient Town and Lu Qian Gate faces the temple of Huishan Ancient Town.

Coincidentally, Fang Chao, the garden in Jichang Garden, was historically the property of the Qin family in Jiangnan, Wuxi. Mainly used to receive Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong to work in Wuxi Jichang Garden 12 times. Jichang Garden, also known as "Qinyuan", was built by Qin Jin, a descendant of Qin Shaoyou in the Northern Song Dynasty, and belongs to the Qin clan in the south of the Yangtze River. Built in the early years of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty, it has a history of more than 600 years.

In reality, the inner garden of Jichang Garden faces the room and secluded room.

Yang Oufang, the founder of the first modern textile factory in Wuxi, has a scene in Si Teng's memory, which reveals the relationship between Qin family and Si Teng. In the plot, Si Teng wore a black cloak and watched a group of people arguing with the Qin family because of the textile factory. Behind this long shot is the unique fair-faced brick building of Huishan ancient town. In real life, this Chinese-Western building is called Yang Oufang Ancestral Temple.

It should be said that Si Teng's screenwriter must know Wuxi very well. Yang Oufang, the owner of this ancestral temple, was a pioneer of the Westernization Movement in China in history. Yang Oufang, Dr. Li Hongzhang's textile doctor, founded a series of industries, such as railways, textiles, land and water commerce, among which the industrial cotton mill founded in Wuxi was the first textile mill in modern Wuxi ... Is it very similar to the situation of Qin family in Si Teng's plot?

The First Floor of Xishan Mountain-the First Scene of Siteng Huishan Ancient Town was written by Zhu, a great scholar in the Ming Dynasty. It is a scene of the Qin family's old house in Yan Hui, where they were sitting by the river with two friends. In the plot, this shot is particularly beautiful, and there is a stone bridge behind it, which is the intersection of Miaotang and Shaoxiang River in Huishan ancient town. It is a typical Jiangnan water town style.

There is no direct appearance of the first floor of Xishan in the play, but the place where the three characters sit in the play is the first floor of Xishan. This building and Ziyang Academy are two buildings in Huishan ancient town related to Zhu, a scholar in the Southern Song Dynasty. The first floor of Xishan is dedicated to Zhu, and Ziyang Academy is an ancient academy that inherits the tradition of Zhu Neo-Confucianism in the Southern Song Dynasty.

The story about Qin family from Sitangjing and Siteng, the main water vein of Huishan ancient town, basically revolves around the river of Sitangjing. The first floor of Lu Qian and Xishan mentioned above is in Shanghetang on the north side of Sitangjing, and the ancestral hall of Yang Oufang is in Xiahetang on the south side of Sitangjing. There is an aerial photograph in the play, and the most conspicuous one is the Sitangjing in the middle of Huishan ancient town.

Sitangjing, the main river that passes through Huishan ancient town, is called "Longtou River" by Wuxi locals. The reason is that at the westernmost end of this river, that is, at the entrance of "Qin's former residence" in the play, there is a stone dragon head that spits out the stream of Huishan Mountain range, which is also the source of the water in the dragon head river. This river was the traffic artery of Huishan ancient town in ancient times, and most people in the ancient town transported goods and materials through this waterway.

The above four scenes in the drama Si Teng are only part of the profound human history of Huishan ancient town. In Huishan Ancient Town, there are more than 0/00 ancestral halls/kloc similar to "Jichang Garden Fangchao" and "Yang Oufang Ancestral Hall", including four academies such as Ziyang Academy, and rivers such as burning incense, Huishanbang and Sitangjing, which constitute this rich ancient town.
