A Forgotten Ancient Town in Southern Anhui from the Ming and Qing Dynasties

|Zhaji Ancient Town Taohuatan, Jing County, Xuancheng City, Anhui Province Yes, it is the Taohuatan that is said to be "a thousand feet deep". Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, avoid the crowded ancient towns, and live in seclusion in Chazhi Ancient Town It is a national AAAA-level scenic spot, a protected site, and a famous historical and cultural village in China. It is an ancient Huizhou village that has not been developed much. It is known as the "No. 1 Sketching Village in China" and is the only existing ancient village in the Ming and Qing dynasties in my country. Chaji is less than 20 kilometers away from Taohuatan. Perhaps it was after he said goodbye to Wang Lun (Li Bai wrote the poem "Presented to Wang Lun" before leaving), Li Bai was invited by Cha Shimo (an official who held the positions of Zhongshulang and Xiaoshulang) from Chaji to travel and live in Shimen Bishan in Chaji. He lingered there for several days and did not want to leave. open The ancient residential buildings of Ming and Qing dynasties are located on both sides of the gurgling Chaji River, stretching for 10 miles. There are 80 existing Ming Dynasty buildings and 109 Qing Dynasty buildings. Almost all the buildings of Ming and Qing dynasties have upturned corners and flying eaves. Among them, residences such as Degong Hall, Songqing Hall, and Airitang are particularly tall and magnificent with exquisite structures. Almost all the buildings of Ming and Qing dynasties have upturned corners and flying eaves. Among them, residences such as Degong Hall, Songqing Hall, and Airitang are particularly tall and magnificent with exquisite structures. The distribution of residential buildings cleverly utilizes the borrowed scenery and contrasting scenery techniques of Chinese classical garden art. "Build houses against the mountains and build villages beside the water", forming a pattern of harmony between man and nature where "the green mountains outside the door are like the house, and the water flows from the east house to the west neighbor".
