Here, 800 years of stories await you. 🌟【Overview】Shimen Village is an ancient village surrounded by bamboo forests, lying quietly at the southern foot of Daleshan Mountain. 🏡 The buildings in the village exude the traditional charm of eastern Zhejiang dwellings, with blue bricks and black tiles, high horsehead walls, built on the mountain, scattered, like a flowing ink painting. 🌈【Features】 Ancient bridges🌉: The ancient bridges in Shimen Village are like witnesses of history, telling stories of the years. The Tiyun Bridge (Five-hole Bridge) is a masterpiece of the Qing Dynasty stone arch bridge, and every stone is engraved with traces of time. Ancient buildings🏚: The village is full of ancient buildings from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the "Six Courtyards and One Mansion" ancient building complex takes you back to the slow era of carriages and horses. The plaques of "Dafudi" and "Dengke" bear witness to the glory of Shimen Village. Ancient trees🌳: The ancient camphor trees are lush and green, and the surrounding bamboo and ancient trees complement each other, forming an elegant ink painting.
