Toudao lane, Erdao lane, Sandao lane and fengle Street are the concentrated places of courtyard style dwellings.

Therefore, they are of different types and styles, including the second courtyard, the third courtyard, the one seal, the Chongtang style, the three room and two ear style, the three square and one screen wall, the four in five patio, and the zoumachuan attic, showing a similar but not the same style characteristic.
There are almost all folk houses, that is, two sections of tile ditches on the roof ridge are arched with plate tiles, and the head is a high raised tube tile, which is called "cat hole" by the local people. In addition to the cat hole, there is also "cat arch wall", which is a section of arc-shaped gable on both sides of the house, similar to two bowing cats. The arc-shaped gable has uniform stress and is not easy to collapse in earthquake. The most important thing is to add fire in the next door. Cat arch wall can cut off the adjacent fire and seal the wall fire.
