Historic Village

In 2005, Ruyayang village in Xizhou town was awarded as a famous historical and cultural village at the municipal level.

Ruyayang developed from a thousand year old post to a village. Up to now, there are still ancient post roads and Ouyang bridge. It was originally named shuxiayang because the village is in the middle of a small basin and the forest on the mountain is luxuriant. After that, he became a scholar, praying that "he would cultivate and read the successors, and the scholars would come forth in large numbers.".

The "elegance" of Ruyayang village has the greatest relationship with the he family in the village. He's family has always attached great importance to social morality rather than social salary. There is a saying in the genealogy of He Min that "the interpretation of heresy He's son and grandson never became a monk. He's ancestral precepts also emphasized that "the rogue children should not be in the family of their close relatives, and those who are not polite and righteous should not be in the family of several travelers", so as to restrain their descendants with the moral values of integrity, honesty and trustworthiness.

Throughout the overall layout of Ruyayang village, we can also see the style of the farming and reading aristocratic family. He Gong Fang and you Fang are the main building groups. On the north side of central street, on the south side are the buildings with different surnames and he's separate houses. Among them, Gongfang is owned by he Han's first family, and Youfang is owned by he Han's elder brother, he yuan. Although the buildings are different in age, the patterns are similar. The quadrangles have fine wood carvings with few similar patterns. In youwufang, there is also a mural with a length of tens of meters, which is called "the painting of fishing, firewood, farming and reading". Through it, we can have a glimpse of the living conditions and farming and reading culture of Xiangshan ancestors.

The tradition of farming and reading is inherited in he's family, and it also affects the refined villagers. Thus, the refined wind diffuses. The family tradition of strictly abiding by farming and reading makes he's family have a good reputation. Among them, the most praiseworthy one is he Han, the owner of He Gong's house.

He Han (1845-1923), with the mission of developing education as his own duty and bravely advocating the trend, founded the first women's school in Xiangshan County - "Guangzhi women's complete primary school". Students of all ages are free of charge, and there are more than 50 readers in the four townships. Two new school buildings were built, and Ningbo technicians were specially employed to build western style auditorium and classrooms. In addition to general courses, there are special sewing courses, and two sewing machines imported from Britain are purchased for students to practice. After that, he Han built a ancestral hall (Chengzhi Hall), and a library and study were built beside the ancestral hall for his nephews to study and work. From the old private school to the later primary school, education has been accompanied by the evolution of he's ancestral hall.

Economic development

Unbalanced development of regional economy

1. The imbalance of regional economic development is prominent.

In industrial economy, the number of entrepreneurs is small, and the number of enterprises with more than 50 million yuan is small; in agricultural economy, the adjustment of industrial structure is strong, but the output per unit area is not high; the development of the tertiary industry is relatively backward, especially the development of Commerce, real estate and catering services is slow. The economic development of some mountainous areas is slow, and the comprehensive utilization rate of mountain and sea resources is not high. For example, the average per capita income of 28 mountainous villages is only 4300 yuan, which is far lower than 6025 yuan in the whole town. There are 8 villages below 3000 yuan, and the lowest is 1752 yuan. In terms of village level collective economic income, the average income of the whole town was 54000 yuan. The highest income was 630000 yuan in 2003, and the lowest income was almost zero.

Infrastructure construction is relatively backward

2. Infrastructure construction is relatively backward.

On the whole, infrastructure construction is still very weak and inadequate. Some roads are still very narrow and small, the sewage facilities are simple and crude, and the rain and sewage will not be discharged, and there is a lack of some landmark and characteristic buildings. There are many problems, such as incomplete functions, backward supporting facilities, small scale of cities and towns, great difference between urbanization requirements, lack of attraction to farmers, and the central position and radiation driving role of cities and towns are not obvious.

The construction of various social undertakings needs to be improved

3. The construction of various social undertakings needs to be improved.

Through the efforts of these years, the construction of various social undertakings has also been developed to a certain extent, but the overall development is not fast, especially the construction of cultural facilities is seriously lagging behind. There are few public cultural facilities in the town that can provide mass participation, which is not commensurate with the status of industrial town and economic town.

There are many factors affecting social instability
