Since 1927, Kuishan, siwangping and tianluohu have been revolutionary areas led by the Communist Party of China. At that time, there were Communist Party organizations and their political organs in Tangbei, tianluohu and sanzhouliao. In July 1930, dengrong district government of red regime was established in siwangping. Siwangpingxiang, tianluohu and Kuishan were the Communist Party's guerrilla areas during the Third Civil Revolutionary War (1945-1949). In 1947, Yu Xiqu, Chen Weiyang, Li Shihai and other comrades of the Communist Party of chaoraofeng border region led the guerrilla activities here. 200 people successively participated in the red guards and guerrillas led by the Communist party. In 1948, the Communist Party of Fenghuang mountain area established Chifeng village democratic government in tianluohu.

In 1928, he took part in the revolution and traveled all over Tangbei, Kuishan, sanzhouliao and other travel bases, making indelible contributions to the revolution.

Overall planning

"Shundeju" is a group of wooden and stone buildings, covering an area of about 11500 square meters. Its buildings, gardens and water area account for about one third of the area. It has nearly 100 rooms and halls. It absorbs the layout features of Chaozhou style "baifengchaoyang" and Hakka Weilongwu, and adds foreign styles such as arcades and watchtowers. It is a rare luxury house in Chaoshan area. Due to the change of time, only a few of the buildings have been built, and the garden has been abandoned, but the overall structure is basically complete.

As the saying goes, "Chaozhou house, the imperial palace is built.". The riverside village is a place with deep forest and few people. It's not easy to gather many artists and craftsmen to build such a vast building. At that time, even the gentry in Chaozhou City marveled at the exquisite project of shundeju.

dialect

Chifeng dialect is mainly Chaoshan dialect, and there are a few Hakka villages such as DASONG.
