Ningbo Fenghua Yantou Village: The Time of Painting Water Village is deep

Yantou Village is located in the southwest of Xikou Town, Fenghua, Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province. It is 12 kilometers from the center of Xikou Town and 48 kilometers from the urban area of ​​Ningbo. It is composed of 5 natural villages. From the three years of Song Jingde to the end of the Qing Dynasty, Yantou has always been affiliated with Yiyuan Township. The village was built in the third year of the Ming Dynasty (AD 1370). Since 1920, it was once known as Iwadou Town, and it has a history of more than 650 years.

As the head of ancient villages, there are still a large number of ancient buildings in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties and the Republic of China, accounting for more than half of the total number of buildings, and the pattern and style of ancient villages are basically complete.

Ancient house in the village

Yanxi and ancient residence

When I came to Iwadou Village, I found that it was like an ancient book that had a natural and beautiful water village painting and a simple and dignified ancient village landscape.

Entering the village, you can see the quiet scene of the small bridge and the tranquility of the countryside, showing a fresh and quiet long charm. Overlooking from the air, the entire village is built near the water, and the house is facing the river. The rural landscape and the natural environment are perfectly integrated.

Under the guidance of the villagers, the reporter came to the former residence of Mao Bangchu, the former deputy commander of the "National Government" Air Force. In 2010, it was announced as a cultural relics protection unit in Fenghua District. This is a typical Chinese and Western -style building. Two in front and back, east -west compartment rooms, and corridors on all sides. Moving and two open rooms, and then the seven open rooms are both two -story single -eave buildings. There are patios before and after, and there are handrail railings upstairs, and the top of Xiaoqing tiles. Although the entire building is simple, the scenery of the year can be seen from the overall structure.

Today is the cultural hall of Iwadou Village, and it is also the place where the humanities history of ancient villages is displayed. Tourists can learn about celebrities and historical stories from various periods of Iwatou Village.

Continue to move forward, you can see the ancient temple rebuilt in the middle of the Qing Dynasty- "Qiantan Temple", which is a relatively long -lasting building in the village.

The rock stream is a tributary of the stream. From south to north, the surface of the stream is wide. There are many large rocks in the stream. The stream flows between the stones and grass, splashing waves. Take off your shoes barefoot on the stone in the water, not to mention how comfortable it is.

The residential courtyard in the style of Iwatou Village is scattered on both sides of the Rock Creek. "Twenty -four Malaysias", "Three Taoist Gates", "Central Third Council", and "Xia San Hospital" and other buildings from the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China were everywhere. The five horses of the Jiangnan dwellings are very rare. The Wang family must be built in a certain position, but there are many in Iwadou Village. There are also many old rural public buildings such as Chongben Hall, Bao Benang, Qiantan Temple, Stocks Bureau, and Railway. Entering these buildings, I feel like passing the Time Tunnel.

There is an ancient bridge -Guangji Bridge at the village entrance of Iwadou Village. It was built by the famous capable craftsman Mao and Thai father and son of Yantou Village in the late Qing Dynasty, about 130 years ago. The bridge is a single -hole stone arch bridge, and the east -west direction spans the rock stream, with a total length of 19.31 meters. The bridge deck is 5.05 meters wide and the net span is 14 meters. The bridge deck is paved with pebbles, and the middle embedded side is 0.87 meters. It is carved with lotus patterns. Although the volume of Guangji Bridge, the two ancient camphor and the "Shiquan" cliff stone carvings not far from the east are reflected each other, forming the village exit of Iwadou Village, which is intriguing. In 2005, it was included in the cultural relics protection point of Fenghua District.

In addition to Guangji Bridge, there are Luohan Bridge, Daxingqiao, and Yongning Bridge in the village. To the north along Yanxi, the three bridges stand in turn. It is said that the three ancient bridges on the Yanxi and the main streets in the village just form a "hair" of a carcass.

East Street

The old street that looks at each other across the stream

On both sides of Yanxi are East Street and West Street, and the two streets are across the stream. Among them, East Street was a place of prosperity in business. According to the villagers, one is because there is a raft port on the head of the head, and you can take a bamboo raft to the Xiao Wang Temple, and then take a boat to Ningbo. Therefore, the mountain goods such as bamboo, wood, firewood, and charcoal in the southwestern mountainous areas are shipped out, and then returned to rice, salt, medicine, cloth and other daily necessities, making Iwar the material distribution center. Second, because the Rocktrors who have supported their parents and received their relatives and friends, they have rich capital remittances every year, which in turn promotes the prosperity of Iwarou's commerce.

Entering East Street, the width here is only about 2 meters and a length of more than 1,000 meters. There are more than 20 old shops and old shops on both sides of the old street, both of which are single -eaves and two -story buildings. The basic pattern is living upstairs, and the shop is opened downstairs. There are Dachengmi Stores, Shunchang South Stores, Yongchang cloth stores, Jinchang Qianzhuang, Dexian Pharmacy, and Qia Da bowls, etc., are now residential houses.

Guangji Bridge

"Eight Scenic Rock" adds a new scene

Because it is located in the remaining pulse of Tiantai Mountain, Iwadou Village has "Dushan Ring Cui", "Lion Elephant Welcome", "Double Bridge Floating Shadow", "Qiantan Zu Temple", "God Turtle Stone Stone", "Gujing Lingquan", "Jingfeng Zen Temple", "Waju Qi Beach" and other scenery are called "Eight Scenic Scenic Scenery".

Entering Yantou Village, you can see that the Lion Rock and Bai Xiangshan are opposed to a natural pass.

On the east side of the middle of the East Street, a strange well is called "Ancient Well Lingquan". The ancient well is commonly known as "Dajingtan" because it is like a pond. The well water here is cold and winter warm and warm, clear and sweet, and endless year.

In addition, the reflection of the Guangji Bridge built in the late Qing Dynasty was reflected in the stream, like two bridges buckled together. This is the "double bridge floating shadow" in the "eight scenic spots of the rock head".

Now these scenes are basically there, attracting many calligraphy and painting photography enthusiasts to check in and observe.In addition to the old attractions, the village also excavated "" "" Great Buddhas, "Ancient Village Drifting", "Bamboo Flying Man", "Three Bridge and One Mao", "Treat House New Press", "Title Corridor", "Shuangjie Ancient Rhyme", "Old Sites of Railway" and other new attractions.The beautiful scenes are welcome, and many farmhouses and homestay inn are also opened in the village.Every holiday, many tourists come to rent a house.

In July and August, the ancient village of Iwadou attracted many tourists to come to avoid summer play.Among them, the royal drifting tourism project built on Yanxi has become a beautiful landscape in the village.During the peak drift, hundreds of vehicles parked the parking lot by the stream.The lively rock drift also indicates the prosperity of ancient villages in the future.
