Jinhua's Mysterious Ancient Village: Yuyuan Taiji Astrological Village

Jinhua Wuyi Yuyuan Village: With ancient charm and legendary star constellations. In Jinhua Wuyi, this ancient and mysterious land hides a dazzling pearl—Yuyuan Village. Here, Ming and Qing ancient buildings are densely packed, with wood and brick carvings so lifelike, it's as if one has traveled back to that distant and prosperous era. Yuyuan Village, a village laid out according to 'celestial bodies and star constellations,' every corner is filled with mystery and legend. The 8-hectare giant Taiji diagram at the entrance of the village further highlights the ancient people's reverence and worship of nature and the universe. To the south of the creek, the 'Yin fish' ancient trees reach for the sky, while to the north, the 'Yang fish' rice fields are golden yellow. The S-shaped stream acts like a boundary between the Yin and Yang fish, dividing the fields into 'two Taiji elements,' creating a stunningly beautiful pastoral painting. Here, you can experience the simple and elegant village architecture, with flying eaves and corners, blue bricks and white walls, all exuding the vicissitudes and charm of the years. The well-preserved group of ancient Ming and Qing buildings in the village, especially the Yu family's ancestral halls and other historical sites, are important windows to explore historical culture. In addition to its rich historical culture, Yuyuan Village also has unique folk customs. Every year on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, villagers dress in Hanfu, release lanterns, make wishes for blessings, watch ancient plays, and celebrate the 'Dream Fulfillment Festival' together to commemorate the dreams and grace of their ancestors. Here, tradition and modernity are intertwined, allowing you to taste history while also feeling the tranquility and harmony of the countryside. Jinhua Wuyi Yuyuan Village, an ancient village that makes people linger and forget to return. Not only does it have a profound historical and cultural heritage, but it also has unique natural landscapes and folk customs. Stepping into Yuyuan Village is like entering a historical labyrinth, intoxicating and irresistible.
