Where to go for autumn sunning | Linkeng Village: a rough gem in the mountains of southern Zhejiang
|Linkeng Village: a rough gem in the deep mountains of southern Zhejiang.
In the northern part of Yongjia, bordering Xianju, there is a 700-year-old village at the source of the Nanxi River. It is famous for its "ancient village, lush bamboos, clear water, many waterfalls and deep valleys" and is known as the "unpolished jade buried in the mountains."
Today, this piece of uncut jade has gradually become an internet celebrity because of its autumn drying and has become the "leader" of many ancient villages in the Nanxi River Basin.
He is the famous Linkeng Village.
【history】
It was first built in the Ming Dynasty and has a history of more than 700 years. It is the settlement of the Maoxing clan. It is said that their ancestors left their hometown and migrated from Ji'an, Jiangxi to avoid the war, and it has been 45 generations so far.
【geography】
Because it was located in a remote area in ancient times, with lush bamboo and trees, surrounded by mountains on three sides, many streams and deep valleys, and poor transportation, it was called "Linkeng".
【Residential Features】
Linkeng Village is a typical southern Zhejiang mountain dwelling style, with undulating mountains and continuous layers.
The village is one of the best-preserved mountain dwellings in Nanxi River. It is simple and authentic, with a wild and natural charm, and it complements the beautiful trees and green mountains around it.
【Autumn Sunshine】
From mid-November to mid-December, the autumn harvest festival is held. The village, the eaves, the arch bridges, and even the streams are filled with agricultural products and local specialties, such as persimmons, peppers, bacon, dried stream fish, dried sweet potatoes, vegetarian noodles, local eggs, soybeans, etc., forming a colorful picture of a bumper harvest.
In addition to the ancient dwellings, the natural scenery includes Dadu Rock, Moonlight Cave, Sandie Rock, Shuangzhu Peak, and Sanzhe Waterfall.
