Impression of Qingtian Ancient Village in Shunde

? (Part of this article is arranged according to the villagers' dictation, or it is open to question. )

Qingtian ... a treasure trove of geomantic omen worthy of careful reading.

First, bred in an inner chamber, with no one knowing her

stumbled across an ancient village in Shunde that was similar to the famous Daqitou Village in Sanshui.

this village can be described as bred in an inner chamber, with no one knowing her. Driving from the village out of the road, the opposite is the so-called Shunde Zhouzhuang fengjian village.

every holiday I, the traffic to Fengjian will be blocked for several kilometers, but none of them will go around Qingtian.

it's a pity that birds are a pity!

Qingtian ancient village has eight scenic spots in Qingtian:

Qianshi Street, a century-old tree, fragrant lotus pond, jade belt ring village, watchful building, Qinglong pier, green snail and bamboo, and the legacy of a school

2. Geographical location

3. History

According to villagers.

The whole village in Qingtian is surnamed Liu, and there are residual stone strips engraved with the word' Pengcheng' in the village. Pengcheng is the place where Liu Bang started, and Liu Bang's descendants all take Pengcheng as their own testimony.

? Liu's two brothers moved to the village from the Liu's Grand Ancestral Hall in Longtan Dashe, and bred the Liu's villagers today.

fourth, the layout of the whole village

? 1. snail-like

snail shells found by the pond, the image of the village?

? Qingtian village is like a snail as a whole, and the mouth of the snail is in the southwest corner of the village, marked by a pile of bamboo piles, which is called "snail cover":

? The bottom of the snail is located in the east of the northeast corner of the village, which is called "snail governor (Cantonese governor means bottom)":

? Interestingly, because of the snail, the villagers in the old days followed the feng shui regulations. The house must be muddy, not hard, and the river can't be hardened. Ducks and wells are not allowed in the village to maintain a feng shui environment conducive to the survival of snails.

? This bamboo pile has a section of ancient figures: in those days, Taigong, the wife, used three or five old water pine heads as the bottom piles, covered them with pond mud, planted bamboos, and cultivated bamboo, forming today's bamboo pile with water conservancy function, which has gone through hundreds of years. 2, ancient buildings

? The core of Qingtian Village is the ancient architectural complex built in the Qing Dynasty, with more than 1 families, mostly blue brick houses.

Qingtian people have attached importance to education since ancient times. In a small village of about 1 families, there are two bookstores without ancestral halls:

3. Jiulong Lane

? Houses are neatly arranged, forming nine alleys, all paved with high-grade granite. Each alley runs through the north and south, like nine Wolong, so it is called Jiulong Lane. Because the alleys all lead to the reservoir in front of the village, the villagers are also called' Dragon Play Pearl' figuratively.

4. Pingba in front of the village and Qianshi Long Street:

? To the south of the building complex is a flat dam, which is as wide as the building complex. The design of village pingba can generally meet the following needs of residents: collective activities such as sacrificial meetings, various banquets, drying crops and so on. ?

? Qingtian people call it Qianshi Long Street. The street is 18 meters long and 1.8 meters wide, and is paved with 18 pieces of granite.

? Masonry pavement shows that the owner's economic strength is relatively strong, and it was the paving material on the tall road that year.

5, superb design of water conservancy facilities

? 1/ ? The direction of the moat water flow is very magical.

? According to the villagers, in the position of Luoyan, that is, at the entrance of the whole village, there is a hidden dike stacked with a number of rugged boulders. After entering Qingtian from the west, Xijiang water is blocked by the hidden dike, naturally flows to the river in the south, then goes around the village, passes through the north of the village, and returns to the place where Luoyan is the entrance of the whole village. At the water inlet, the water does not flow out of the village directly, but around the bamboo pile in a circle, and then flows out of the village after entering the village pier. At the same time, the gap formed by the ebb and flow of the tide is used.

This design is reminiscent of Dujiangyan.

You may not be able to explain the mystery clearly here. You need to ask an expert for advice.

It is said that the water depth at the screw cover and the screw pipe is more than the height of two people, which is estimated to be the need of water flow design.

2/ ? Dock of external window

? In the old days, the dock was the gateway for water access, through which goods entered and exited, and the bride had to go ashore from this dock.

? 3/ the reservoir in front of the village

? To the south of Pingba is a pond as wide as the building complex.

the function of the pond is to provide domestic water, adjust the environmental humidity, raise fish and plant lotus roots, and put out fire. A well-designed village in the Pearl River Delta will be equipped with a pond in the south of the village.

? In summer, the pond will be full of lotus flowers, attracting film friends from all over the world to hunt for beauty:

6, five stones, three stones, two stones

? In the past, granite (a kind of granite) was a high-grade building material for paving roads. Qingtian villagers are used to using a few stones to show the size of the road.

? It is said that the owners of the village are the Liu brothers, each of whom owns half of the village. The distinguishing sign is that the building part of Pingba is higher than the bar stone of Pingba.

The Pingba in front of the village has a pavement about three centimeters higher than the Pingba below the house drip line. The pavement has five stone parts, and the corresponding buildings are my brother's property, while the buildings corresponding to the three stone parts are my brother's property. A very interesting sign.

? Others say that the five slates belong to the first wife, and the three slates belong to the concubine. It is said that the great woman in the east and the concubine in the west are waiting, or vice versa. . .

Please distinguish carefully. The part that is three to five centimeters above the ground along the corner is the difference.

five stones:

three stones:

? Two stones:

? Originally, Huancun Road was made of two stones. Later, in order to connect cars, the slate road was paved with cement, and the slate was pressed under the cement.

? Kowloon Lane is all made of two stones.

7, moat, Qingtian people call it Yudaihuan Village.

? In the early days, the village was surrounded by rivers, and the villagers led to the outside of the village through four wooden bridges. At night, the bridge plates of the wooden bridges were put away, and the village was isolated from the outside world, forming a safe circle.

? The river around the village is like the belt of an ancient official; Because there are four bridges, it is also like carrying a child's strap. It is said that only people in court and Guangdong can use the strap in this way. He said it was like a golden dragon with five claws.

River in the east

River in the south

River in the west

River in the north

8. The watchtower was built in the Qing Dynasty. Originally, there were three watchtowers, of which one in the north collapsed, leaving two, one on each side of the village:

The watchtower in the west, the banyan tree and the watchtower lived together: < On the whole, the ancient buildings form a natural village, the village sits north to south, and the relationship between the nine alleys and the pond is the Dragon Play Pearl. The whole village is surrounded by rivers and ponds, and the design of water supply and drainage is very scientific. No matter from the aspects of safety and fire prevention, convenience of life or geomantic design, the whole layout is perfect, and I can't help but admire the superb design and construction level of our ancestors.

It is said that the designer who designed the village used to smoke opium, and the design reward of the whole village was 8 Jin of opium.

This pattern of rivers surrounded by four sides is better than Daqitou Village.

I really want to kneel down to the wisdom of our ancestors' design ideas.

1, the dream of developing tourism

Qingtian is like jade, and it is a talent that can be carved.

Qingtian is an ancient village with a very complete layout of geomantic design and a very high level. Until now, the mystery of its water conservancy construction has not been fully understood. Who designed the village and what is the design idea? . . Still exploring.

? Modern architecture has relatively light encroachment on ancient buildings, the original appearance is relatively intact, it is not polluted by small factories and workshops, the village looks clean and civilized, and the villagers are hospitable. It is a good embryo worthy of being a typical traditional ancient village in the Pearl River Delta and becoming a hot spot for tourism.

? It is said that the village has made a tourism plan and will soon start construction. In fact, the inn has been renovated.

The inn has been renovated, and guests can be welcomed after half a year:

12. Suggestions for the development of Qingtian: build a base for photography, painting and wedding photography of ancient villages in the Pearl River Delta

1/ build an ancient village for green tourism and put an end to pollution,

prohibit industry from entering the village and put an end to industrial pollution;

raise funds to build sewage pipe network and sewage treatment plant;

2/ Preserve the architectural features of the ancient village and create the original ancient village

Put an end to the tiling, and only blue bricks can be used in the renovation of old houses. Because the blue brick is the characteristic of the ancient village, every tile veneer will devalue the value of the ancient village;

all the shops are decorated with traditional materials, which are antique;

All stone pavements must be preserved, and no new cement pavements should be added in the village, because the new cement pavements will also devalue the ancient village;

3/ Use one of the private schools to establish Qingtian Museum of History and Folklore, and collect cultural relics for display;

4/ Use another private school to set up a calligraphy and painting photography activity room, organize various related activities and display works;

5/ Try to transform one or two houses into wedding inns to attract wedding photographers, their families and photographers;

6/ Around the village, flowers of four seasons, rape blossoms in spring, lotus sunflowers in summer, chrysanthemums in autumn and winter and lavender in Fengxian Xiao will be opened to increase tourists and wedding photography programs; The base of fish pond is also a good condition for planting flowers to form a landscape;

7/ ? Get one or two flower boats to cooperate with wedding photography, take photos while playing on the Jade Belt River, and create a wedding reception program on the pier;

8/ Cultivate ornamental animals, such as peacock parrots, to enrich the subjects of photography;

9/ Organize a model photo contest to expand the influence of the ancient village
