Sixiyan Village

Sixiyan village is located in Sikou Town, Wuyuan County, Jiangxi Province, about 13 kilometers away from Ziyang town. It was first built in the fifth year of Qingyuan (1199) of the Southern Song Dynasty and has been more than 800 years. Yu, who built the village at that time, was famous for his (FISH) yearning for Qingxi water. In the hundreds of years, he did business in Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Shanghai, Hunan and Guangxi, mainly engaged in timber, tea, salt and other commercial activities. Most of the people who became rich in business brought money back to their hometown to buy land and houses, build academies, and set up a large number of government buildings, ancestral halls and steles.

Historical evolution

The whole village is mainly composed of ancient buildings of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The village is paved with bluestone slabs. The ancient buildings are backed by the green mountains, facing the clear streams and paddy fields. The village is surrounded by green spaces. The elegant natural scenery of the beautiful water and green mountains is integrated into the village. There are 172 households with 667 people, covering an area of about 8.6 hectares. There are 156 ancient dwellings, including 5 in Ming Dynasty and more than 80 in Qing Dynasty. The existing ancient buildings cover an area of 16000 square meters. Most of the ancient dwellings are built with white walls and tiles.

The overall color effect is black and white, giving a simple and elegant beauty. From a distance, the appearance of these ancient dwellings is a large area of blank powder wall. On the powder wall, there are several orderly small holes and windows, forming a contrast effect between the whole and the part, and between the surface and the point, reflecting the meaning of "following nature". The interior and exterior walls mainly adopt the architectural modeling of horse head wall and gable, especially the eaves corner of horse head wall The blue sky outlines the outline between the wall and the sky, which increases the rhythmic beauty of the space. The prominent feature of Sixi residential buildings is that there are patios in the house, and the commercial culture is reflected in the patio buildings.

In Wuyuan, the architecture of official residence is different from that of commercial residence. The ancient buildings in Yancun village embody the prayer of businessmen everywhere. According to the records of place names of Wuyuan County, genealogy and other historical materials, Yancun was first built in the Yuanfeng period of the Northern Song Dynasty (1078-1085). The first people who lived here were residents of the surnames Cha, Wu, Cheng and Lu. It was only during the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty (1506-1521 A.D.) that the surname Jin, who accounted for 80% of the village's population, moved in from tuochuan, North Township of Wuyuan.

The original name of the village was Yanchuan, because the village is facing the endless stream of Qingxi, and the villagers hope that the future generations will last for hundreds of generations. Later, Yanchuan was gradually known as "Yancun". 56 ancient dwellings built by merchants in Qing Dynasty are well preserved in the village. Known as the "Qing Dynasty commercial housing group.". At that time, Wuyuan was under the jurisdiction of Huizhou. Wuyuan people (mainly tea merchants and wood merchants) who were a strong force in the Wu Zhong of the ancient Huizhou business team, transported and sold the local tea and wood to other places. After they became rich in business, they sent back their money to buy land and build houses to glorify their ancestors.

Yuqingtang ancient house was built in Qianlong period of Qing Dynasty. Jin Wenjian, the old owner of the house, was a big tea merchant. In feudal society, the merchants were rich but not expensive, and the status of merchants was the lowest. Therefore, the residence can not be as grand and luxurious as the official residence. Moreover, the court also stipulated that the business gate should not be opened due south. The whole facade of Yu Qingtang is the word "Shang". The upper part of the word "Shang" is composed of the door cover and the gate tower. The blue stone door brace is a word "Kou".
