Jiangxi, a neglected treasure tourist town, is known as the "enclosure capital of the world", just in southern Jiangxi.

Gannan refers to the south of Jiangxi Province, which is mainly composed of Ganzhou and its three districts, 13 counties and two county-level cities. Its area is very large, accounting for a quarter of the total area of Jiangxi Province. Gannan is not only known as the red capital of the south of the Yangtze River and Song Cheng, but also one of the three Hakka gathering places and one of the "four Hakka States" in China, where there are more than 600 Hakka enclosed houses with different patterns.

When it comes to Hakka houses in southern Jiangxi, we have to mention "Longnan City". Longnan, located at the southernmost tip of Jiangxi, has a long history, which can be traced back to the eleventh year of Baoda University in Nantang, with a history of more than 1000 years. In Longnan, there are as many as 376 Hakka enclosed houses, accounting for more than 70% of the whole Hakka enclosed houses in Gannan, so it has the reputation of "the enclosed house capital of the world".

On June 5438+ 10, 2007, Longnan City won a special honor, that is, it was awarded the "Best Dairy Cow in the World" by Shanghai World Dairy Headquarters. The reason is that there are 376 Hakka enclosed houses in Longnan, which is the city with the largest number of Hakka enclosed houses. Hakka enclosed house is the main architectural form of ancient Hakka residents, which is a combination of home, shrine and fortress, easy to defend but difficult to attack, and very strong.

Among the many Hakka enclosed houses in Longnan, one has to be mentioned, that is, "Kansai New Enclosure". Kansai New Wai was built in Jiaqing of Qing Dynasty for three years, with a history of more than 200 years. After more than 200 years of ups and downs, it is still very well preserved, and it is the most complete and largest Hakka enclosure found in China.

Looking down from the air, the new Kansai perimeter is shaped like a "country", rectangular, about 95 meters long and 83 meters wide. The internal building structure is like a huge "emblem", neat and rigorous. Some people call it "palaces scattered among the people", while others call it "ancient Roman castles in the East". Now it is hidden around this mountain, and it is independent.

Nowadays, after some transformation, the new customs west has become a tourist destination that tourists yearn for. It is not only a national 4A-level tourist attraction, but also a national key cultural relic protection unit.

The owner of the new paddock in Kansai is a famous local gentleman "Xu Mingjun", who made a fortune from the timber business. Later, with a prosperous family and many children, this huge paddock was built. It is reported that it took 29 years and cost millions to build.

I have been to the enclosed houses in Fujian before, that is, the round enclosed houses, which are called "Longweiwu". The square enclosed houses in southern Jiangxi show a round scene and have to be amazing.

The wall around Kansai New Wai is exceptionally tall, about 9 meters, and the turrets at the four corners are as high as 15 meters. At that time, it was really a bunker that was easy to defend but difficult to attack.

The core area of the enclosed house is family ancestral temple, which is also the property of people living here. Today, people still live here. There are about two or three descendants of the Xu family, and the people who live here have not moved away because it is a national key cultural relics protection unit. After all, they have lived here for generations. This is the root.

Although it has gone through more than 200 years of spring, summer, autumn and winter, most of the buildings inside the paddock are well preserved. The enclosure in southern Jiangxi is a little different, except that there is no luxurious decoration, which looks particularly simple and elegant.

Not far from Kansai New Wai, there is a paddock with a longer history, namely "Xichang Wai". From the outside, it seems that the whole paddock is well preserved, but the interior is already dilapidated. If it is repaired a little in the future, it may still emit charming brilliance.
