Sergu Tibetan Village

Sergu Tibetan Village

Seergu Tibetan village is located in the east gate of Heishui County, bordering Maoxian County, with an altitude of 1790 meters. It is a dry valley with humid climate and rich products. It is called "xiaojiangnan". Sergu is a Tibetan language, which means "a place rich in gold". Seergu Tibetan village is a typical place where Tibetan and Qiang ethnic cultures blend together. It is built according to the mountains and beside Menghe river. It is a primitive, simple and mysterious Tibetan village. Some people call it "the ancient castle of the East", while others call it "the little potala palace in Northwest Sichuan".

Tourist routes

From Maoxian to Heishui County, you can see some stone houses built along the mountains on the other side of the river, which are tens of kilometers away from Heishui, just not far from Heishui. Like medieval castles, you can hear the sound of chickens barking and dogs barking, you can see the curl of cooking smoke rising on time, and you can see the white stones in front of and behind the houses. That's Qiang village. Some of the forks are to Sanlong, Weicheng and other Qiang villages. The black water river is rolling with waves, and we are accompanied by songs along the way. On the way, the wooden buildings with memorial archways come into our sight. There are yak skulls and a few big words on them: Sergu Tibetan village, a place once left by tourists, and a village full of rich Jiarong style, which is close to the mountains and water, simple and dignified. What's the difference between them It's more exciting.

Along the route of dajiuzhai international tourist area, you can enter the South Gate of Heishui. On the meandering Menghe River, an ancient Tibetan village stands in the blue sky

Next, clusters of Tibetan buildings are connected to each other, forming their own square, close to mountains and rivers, just like a legendary paradise, living apart from others. In the long historical changes, through the long-term labor and communication of the seer ancients, they have created an excellent national culture with the blend and development of Tibetan and Qiang cultures, preserved many ancient and unique Tibetan traditional customs, and become a living fossil for the study and excavation of Tibetan culture in the Western Sichuan Plateau.

Sergu Tibetan village is a village built on the slopes of both sides of the valley. The difference in terrain makes the houses scattered, enriching the space language of the building, like a long and melodious multi voice folk song. All the houses are built of gray stones. They lean against the mountain and spread along the mountain. They don't stop until they reach the apple grove by the river. In spring and summer, it is quiet and beautiful, but in autumn and winter, it is firm and rough.

After a bridge, along a secluded path, a

The most concentrated place for people to enter the Tibetan village is a 70% lane, which connects dozens of people's beads. Through this remote and mysterious lane, you can get to any one. Walking along the alley, the steps are sometimes printed on the roof of a farmer's house, sometimes passing through the foundation of another house, sometimes stepping on the aerial plank road. The stone walls on both sides are full of sight. The sky can only be seen from a few colorful skylights, and a stream can be seen from time to time. It's like walking through an old castle with one man at the gate and ten thousand people at the gate. Time is the most precipitation and smoke is the strongest flavor. In the eyeful stone color, time retains the original appearance. In this environment of civilian residence in peacetime and blockhouse in wartime, I think of a leader's assertion that "the history of Heishui is a history of war". Reminiscent of the thick smoke of gunpowder, filled with the bloody and choking smell of war, people feel a little sad.

Leave the roadway, across a ditch, a flat slope slowly spread out, each village building idle standing in the corner of the field. Several beautiful girls embroidered and sang on the roof, dotted with hot peppers and heaps of golden corn. The green wheat fields and fruit trees surround the house. The smoke is light, the blue river flows slowly in the distance, and the birds sing in the sunshine. Looking at the scene before us, the whole world seems untouched and unpolluted, and the mood becomes clear.

Enter a village building at will, pick up a single wooden ladder and go up to the second floor of the house. There are wooden boards on the four walls, bright paintings with Tibetan characteristics in some places, dragon bowls and wine bottles that may have been used for generations on the closets. The girl leaned against the flower window like an illustration. Up to the third floor of the house, there is a flat terrace and a sunny cottage. The hut is a sacred Sutra hall for Tibetans to worship gods, with red and yellow doors and windows, carved beams and painted buildings, and gilded lions and tigers dancing on it. There are Thangka portraits hanging around and felt on the ground. Standing on the terrace, the sun shines all over. On the wall of the tower stands a delicate white tower, and the colorful prayer flags flutter in the wind.

Features of scenic spots

Tibetan Architecture

In ancient times, in order to resist the invasion of foreigners, the ancient people lived in groups, thus forming a unique Tibetan style residence. The Tibetan village is built on the ridge of the mountain. It is a watchtower style. It is built with rubble and yellow mud mortar. It is generally three-story. The bottom of the watchtower is slightly larger, and it is inclined upward layer by layer. The foundation is solid. It is warm in winter and cool in summer. Every household is connected. It has been built for a hundred years and will not collapse. It is decorated with red, yellow and white. The alleys between households are inlaid with rubble, and the stairs are densely covered. When you first come to them, you have to go back and forth if you enter the eight trigrams. The structure of the whole Tibetan village is rigorous, and every household is connected. A clear stream entangles with the village building. In case of an accident, the deep and simple canal becomes a safe passage and an important position to attack the enemy, forming an indestructible defense system. The Tibetan building is adjacent to xiongli and looks like a European Castle Kingdom from afar. It can be called a unique building in the history of architecture.

Totem Culture

In this ancient Tibetan village, which has remained unchanged for thousands of years, each family's door is inlaid with a 1-2-meter-long ten thousand shaped stone slab, which is engraved with colorful totem patterns and characters. Yellow symbolizes peace, liberation and nirvana; blue symbolizes power and bravery; green symbolizes abundance and wealth; red symbolizes power and power ruling the world. The prayer flag carries people's wishes for a better life; the ox head, sheep horn, whale, eagle, tiger, sun, moon, lotus and lotus symbolize wisdom, nobility and secularity in turn, removing all kinds of obstacles and driving away evil. The mysterious totem culture deduces the rise and fall of a tribal nation. Here, history and historic sites, myths and legends, scenery and things connect the past, the present and the future. The shape and spirit of Sergu Tibetan village are all rich and full, just like a full fruit after autumn.

White stone God

It is said that "white stone" saved the ancestors of the ancient people in sehr. Later generations regarded white stone as the God of protecting the family. Every family placed Taibai stone in the four corners of the roof and on the lintel of the door, offering rites and avoiding evil spirits, which was untouchable by others.

Lotus Island

There is a convex "Lotus Island" on the other side of the Tibetan village, overlooking like a Buddha. He is sitting on the lotus terrace, gazing at the Tibetan village, praying and blessing. There is a pagoda built of white stone on the island. It is a sacred place for monks to teach Buddhist scriptures, hold Buddhist ceremonies, and make pilgrimages to the common people. The tradition remains unchanged for a long time, and the rich religious culture makes the Sergu Tibetan village present a colorful spiritual feast.

Local Customs

Maybe it's because of the Menghe river that the Tibetan people in selgu can walk and dance, speak and sing. The dance has a large scale, various forms and different styles, especially Guozhuang dance. On the festive day, the whole village's old and young people gather to dry the dam, build a bonfire, roll and roast the whole sheep, play the sheepskin drum, drink the green trees and smash the wine, hand in hand and shoulder to shoulder, dance the Tibetan Guozhuang dance, and immerse themselves in the unity and festive paradise of the next generation. Wedding, funeral and marriage, building houses and bridges, they express their joy, anger and joy with their simple songs, which are elegant, high pitched and bold. If you meet a distinguished guest, the forthright Tibetans will pour the mellow Qingke wine, and serve the unique flavor of sauerkraut noodles, buckwheat noodles, potato cake rakes and so on. The location of the Tibetan culture of the ancient Tibetan with its original and mysterious customs is the location of the first Tibetan village in the northwest of Sichuan. It collages the essence of Tibetan culture for a hundred years. It takes the Tibetan culture as the theme and guides the natural and natural Tibetan life in the pastoral area to enjoy the spiritual experience brought by Tibetan Buddhism. With the development of tourism in heimu County, Sergu Tibetan village, the first Tibetan village in Northwest Sichuan, which is comparable to "Western Castle", will surely go to the world.
