The Millennium Villages maze was Hom
Canton is a reportedly was 1000 years of history, villages, criss-cross the roadway so that we can not find the direction of holding map, to ask the locals, they often shook his head, not of Mandarin that it is not literate, we can only own guess is the wandering.
In my opinion, the whole village will have a very run-down, perhaps with some praise here, the ancient village preserved its original state, but the muddy paths, dirty pan muddy waterways, sparse gray-black walls and that pungent smell of rotting grass turns It is indeed unable to agree with poetic existence.
With other regions different from the existing old house more than Dynasty, showing Hom preserve more historic period of construction: Yuan Ming and Qing Dynasty relics are visible, and to the Ming Dynasty retained majority, which is its uniqueness. Ming Dynasty-style tends to simple minimalist aesthetic, so here are very simple in many Zhaizi ancient, but at the same time without losing grace the atmosphere, but even more elegant. Class later in the Qing Dynasty was no truth in the complicated luxury atmosphere.
However, these do not have much carving a house a few hundred years but it is extremely precarious after the bleak and dilapidated doors and windows are everywhere, and many people could not believe Zhaizi descendants live there still, when a vibrant Mulou is a Shen Black, one of the oldest old for the elderly and life together after years of changes, exudes a kind of dusk colors, yard debris piling up in the chaos and dust in the beam so that the life of this world cast a layer of dark.
As the blocks of large-scale of the compound are not yet open to the east stands Cuntou Shu ancestral even more prominent, this magnificent ancestral hall is quite ambitious Roche Chan family shrine. Canton is the Roche clan was a gathering place, which is a started in the Tang, Xing Yu Song, flourishing in Ming Han's scholarly elite government officials. Whose ancestor is the Song to the early Yuan Dynasty of the Luo Shu is a self than the Tao of the virtuous hermit, though abundant experience, but never Shimeng ancient royal family, since the posthumous title "Ching Ching" in number. Roche family of talented high-ranking officials in the Ming Dynasty forth in large numbers of high standing, not only the cost of the construction of the shrine were as high as 45,000 taels of gold, the stone temple was also engraved with the Royal dedicated Kui dragons, the latter dedicated to the ancestral tablets sleep is repair of the seven steps , second only to the court style, showing a prominent trend Roche year.
Here, I was most shocking is not the East Shu Temple building luxury, nor is it the fine carving Po Lun Court, in a small rooms, I have been here a few pieces of plaque hanging deeply attracted. Roche said that the original shrine of sorts to save a few 10 plaque, mostly Jingbiao the text of devastation it suffered during the Cultural Revolution, at present, but remaining in the minority, but only 10 in a few, I saw two Chin Chi "chastity" and a "Festival Filial Piety" plaque.
"Festival", it is a woman of that era's highest honor, which is then sealed a woman, all free all the feelings, the dream spell. Emblem of people say, "I, husband and wife, three loving", living together has become the emblem of many people from the emotional world of the facts can not be avoided, while the emblem of human beings in a complete code of ethics is the most profound and imprisonment of those at the grass widow Cardiff, Cardiff life and death widowed women. Chastity is her husband passed away within seven days after the suicide of his wife, who's Day of filial piety is necessary to keep the name section and will serve her in-laws taught mothers raising orphans.
I think if done for me, and I certainly would choose to die. In order to achieve what is not that good name, just a general look at the deep-cage house: the tall walls, small patio, slit-like window lattice, such a cell can only give me as ghost-like cry. Even though no longer see the golden flowers of rape, even though no longer the clear Creek Huanxi, even if the forest can no longer hear the birds, I personally would prefer to end their lives, but also to not let one night a hopeless engulf my youth.
I can not imagine bringing up children who taught mothers how to overcome their own lonely life, in the long years ahead, relying on what they want to give the reasons for their survival, in the numerous Shen night, how many tears they flow through . Health and Ye Hao, death both mean piercing pain, blood and tears are all suffering.
These thick black of the characters, but this piece of land, many will disappear in a few weak souls, in the past years, how many women come through, or bitter, or lonely life, no one knows. Huizhou lined with Torii in the past half are their tombstones, fresh body bright smile eventually turned into the setting sun, under the cold stone. Fortunately, later did not go into the arch-tong yue group, I really can not imagine walk through these, how do I resolve the remarks of a heavy.
Very glad that he did not born in that century, this place, although we had the era of free people can not find the emotional direction, frenzy may no longer believe that the possibility of loyalty, but I no longer have to always bear the suffering of so relieved.
Feelings such as water rippling hongcun
In many villages in Huizhou, Hongcun is the largest known. In go the way, we also take the opportunity to visit Lu village, in the evening Piaoqi the snow, there were numerous places scattered in the bluestone lanes, the light blue canopy hanging corner to a small crescent, flying eaves of numerous piles of Alice , dim blue wall of silence in the night with, time seems to solidification, it is, what is trance Nanbianjinxi evening.
Hongcun arrival, the weather had been late, but let Inn owner took us to visit the famous monthly Hisatomi marsh, South Lake, the village's two largest water-poly of the Department. Gurgling streams and the surrounding villages along the waterways, we came to the provisional on the Wang clan ancestral hall of the marsh, which is a half-shaped reservoirs, curved-shaped shore are the Ming and Qing dynasties of the Old House. Marsh surface on calm, clear reflection of the heavenly lights underground scene, but the water is flowing water, always fresh. "Crouching Tiger" in pursuit of that section of water on the framing of this, time does seem to be quite an atmosphere.
South Lake is also the artificial lake, a lake, a long bridge will be divided into two, the children of school Fa Meng Wang's Lake is the South Lake College, the other side is a cobbled promenades, beach tree branches grow wild, Heaven on the thorns, the next fu lu shui, the ancient Italian abundant. Snowy night view of the water really do have some crosses several, so that the next day when during the day look a little disappointed.
The beginning, do not think there are too many special here, but learn about the villagers, earlier Hongcun, and there is no water around the village, although the village is built according to river. The design of the structure of the complete water system from the hands of his wife, a Taiwan government has Hongcun gratitude for the people of this kind-hearted and intelligent woman: re-Yuan Hu, childhood brilliant, renowned village. 17-year-old married into Jia, to doing things well and get the whole clan comprehensive notice of the respected, her husband Crown outside, she presided over the status of near-patriarch built Hongcun water, using the terrain drop, Xiushui Road cited the river, so that Qingqing meandering stream flowing through the front of the Ge Jia. He died before he was gone, and Lu Flows for hundreds of years, the village can all benefit from this, but also from generation to generation tribute to commemorate the love of this gentle woman.
