Amazing Nanping Village in China's Anhui

0 Comment(s)Print E-mail China.org.cn, April 28, 2013

Located in the southwest part of Yixian County, Nanping Village has almost a thousand-year history. It owns large-scale Hui-style ancient houses from the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties and also has some Sino-foreign architecture as well. In the village, there is a stretch of ancient woods called Wansonglin. Its numerous lanes and wells, numbering 72 and 36, respectively, are another unique part of the village. Entering into the village, you will surely be full of praise for the traditional houses and old-fashioned decorations, such as the stone-carved windows and wood-carved beams and columns.
