Kaiping Diaolou Composition 1 My hometown Kaiping is dotted with diaolou, which not only reflects the history of the people in the hometown of overseas Chinese who struggled hard to protect their home and defend their country, but also is an overseas Chinese tulou building complex integrating Chinese and Western architectural arts.
At its peak, Kaiping Diaolou reached more than 3,000, with 1833 existing. On June 28th, 20xx, "Kaiping Diaolou and Village" successfully declared as a world cultural heritage, and was officially listed in the World Heritage List at the 3rd1session of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee, making it the 35th item in China, the first item in Guangdong Province and the only one in Guangdong Province so far.
Why doesn't Kaiping Diaolou stand? The direct reason is to fight against bandits and defend their homes. It can be said that every watchtower may be accompanied by an earth-shattering and touching story. During the period from 19 12 to 1930, there were 7 1 robberies in Kaiping, killing more than 100 people, capturing more than 2 10 cows and plundering them. If there were no towers like this, it would be more difficult for Kaiping villagers and their relatives to resist the looting from time to time by bandits.
At present, the most well-preserved and luxurious watchtower in Kaiping is Shiming Tower in Gigi Lai Village, Tangkou Town. There are 15 watchtowers with different styles and exquisite shapes in Gigi Lai village, most of which were built by local overseas Chinese to protect their relatives in their hometown in the 1920s and 1930s. At that time, bandits were rampant and floods were frequent, and these watchtowers, which were able to live and keep, became powerful guardians of local villagers. At the moment, the natural environment there is beautiful, and ponds, lotus ponds, rice fields and bamboo forests are scattered among them, which are in harmony with the scattered towers.
When you look up at the "Great Wall" that has stood for years, you will be amazed at the exquisite architecture of Shiming. Built in 1925, a six-story building with a spectacular appearance. The interior is very luxurious in the east, with a spacious colonnade on the front, eight Austrian columns, deformed Roman railings around the platform, baroque mountain flowers in the middle of the front, and a plaque of Shi Ming Building on the top. Shi Ming architecture preserves complete furniture and daily necessities, which is rich and interesting. Although the building is empty at the moment, it is inevitably disappointing. But the fertile land around the watchtower, Wan Li, is full of fragrant rice, which is quite a paradise.
When you walk lightly in the village where birds are singing and flowers are fragrant, you will be intoxicated by the gift of nature, and you will be moved involuntarily by the great labor of the people in the hometown of overseas Chinese. Especially when you stroll in Majianglong Village, which is known as "the most beautiful village in the world", the green bamboo forests stand side by side and are full of vitality, which will definitely make you linger.
Diaolou culture is profound and rich in connotation. The feelings of defending the country and defending the country, the magnanimous and tolerant mind, the spirit of bold innovation and the characteristics of harmony between man and nature embodied in the watchtowers and villages have stood proudly in the past years, stepped forward in today's trend and extended in the future history. "Kaiping Diaolou and Village" will also "fly higher and higher" with the help of the power of "bullets"
Kaiping Diaolou Composition 2 "Kaiping Diaolou is going to declare the world cultural heritage!" Hearing the good news, I couldn't help cheering. According to the teacher, it was the only place in China that applied for the World Cultural Heritage in 20xx. As a Wuyi person, I am extremely proud of it.
Today, as a small tour guide, I will introduce you to a fascinating place-Kaiping Diaolou, and unveil its mysterious veil for you.
Gigi Lai Village is one of the four nominated sites for Kaiping Diaolou and Village to declare World Cultural Heritage. The natural environment in the village is beautiful, and ponds and lotus ponds are scattered among them, which are in harmony with many watchtowers and are beautiful.
There are 15 watchtowers with different styles and exquisite shapes in Gigi Lai Village, such as Shiming Building, Leisure Villa and Juan Building, which were built by local overseas Chinese to protect the lives and property of their loved ones, and are mainly used for preventing bandits, waterproofing and living. The complete furniture and daily necessities are still preserved in the diaolou, which is the historical witness of overseas Chinese culture at that time. In the watchtower, all the objects are still the furnishings of the past. Here, you will find yourself so close to history.
When we entered the Shi Ming Building, what caught our attention was four big portraits hanging on the front of the hall, which were pictures of the landlord and his three wives. There are 9 screens in the hatchback of the hall, inlaid with dark blue glass. The glass is covered with calligraphy and painting written by famous artists, and the whole hall is filled with thick books. The daily necessities in the building are still well preserved, and it seems that years have never left traces on it.
Strolling through the countryside, buildings crisscross and wild flowers are everywhere. The idyllic scenery around the watchtower is fantastic poetry.
When you leave the beautiful and lovely place of Kaiping, you may have too many regrets, but we believe that Kaiping Diaolou will unveil her mysterious veil to the world with the spring breeze of applying for world cultural heritage, and present it to us with the most beautiful face! Chapter VII: Gigi Lai Village Diaolou
I am surrounded by antique buildings, most of which are made of loess. There are balconies and lightning rods on the roof of each house, holes are made in the four corners of the roof, and the words "bird's nest" are marked next to it.
"Here is obviously empty. Where did you get the bird's nest? " I asked. Dad said: "I should be afraid of affecting the shooting effect, so I ended the nest!" " ""Then what film was shot here? " "Let the bullets fly." "I see, the building was not bombed? How is it still good? " "That was done by computer! If it is bombed, can he bear it? This is a world heritage! Dad said that and sat down in the pavilion next to him.
This pavilion is quite big, it can seat more than a dozen people, with a red roof and white columns, but the paint on it is much less, which is the cause of weathering! This is the main shooting location of "Let the Bullets Fly"-Gigi Lai Village Diaolou. It is said that the tall buildings here were built by rich people 100 years ago. This building has left traces of generations. The appliances on the last floor have been modernized, but the photos on the wall have turned yellow.
This house has seven floors, each of which is about 60 square meters. The first floor is the living room, exquisite and gorgeous, magnificent. The stairs are very narrow, only twenty centimeters wide. There are two bedrooms, a kitchen and a study on the second to fifth floors. I thought these things were boring, so I went straight to the roof. "ah! So comfortable! " A gust of wind blew at me and took away my whole body's anger, as if rushing out of a barrier. Looking down from the roof, I really feel that other mountains are dwarfed under the sky. ..
On a sunny summer day, I came to the charming Kaiping Diaolou with great interest. The design of the watchtower is very unique. It is a combination of Chinese and western architecture. The watchtower is wide. There is a kitchen on each floor. The height of each watchtower is not less than two stories. The design of each door is very exquisite. This is an iron gate. Each door has dozens of bumps. From this point, we can reflect the beauty and lofty spirit of the watchtower. Each watchtower has the highest six floors, and the seventh floor is the roof. Most roofs are hexagonal and quadrilateral. There are stones of different sizes on the roof, which are used to throw and attack the enemy. There are prominent defensive buildings here, which are called "Bird's Nest". Bird's nest has various shapes. At that time, not only Kaiping, Canadian Village, Chikan Ancient Fill and Mars Long Ta in Gigi Lai Village were places where bunkers gathered. Bunkers are all over the country, naturally forming the word "no bunker and no village", and the interior decoration of the bunker is very beautiful.
Today, the most profound building in China is Fang's lighthouse. Fangjiadenglou is located in the north hillside of Tangkou Town, Kaiping City. Formerly known as "Xi Gu Building". Later generations changed it into a square lighthouse. This building is five stories high and has a reinforced concrete structure. Below the third floor, the fourth floor is the Taotai Gallery, and the fifth floor is the width of the West Dome Exhibition Hall. The building is equipped with west morning light for early warning on duty. The gun room is a typical bunker. There are 10 firefighters guarding the bunker for a long time. They are equipped with advanced firearms, seven light machine guns and two carbines purchased from the United States. Later, generators were installed on the first floor, and searchlights were installed on the roof, all of which were imported from Germany. If a gangster comes to rob, the guard will turn on the searchlight to illuminate the gangster, and then inform the villagers to take counter-action. The robbers dare not come again. Fang's lighthouse also played a safe role.
The above is my introduction to Kaiping Bunker, and the following is Liyuan. The pear garden is Mr. Xie Weili's contribution to the country, and the fortress to repay the motherland is the pear garden. The pear garden is very wide. At that time, the protective net was very large and was invaded by the Japanese army, but due to the dense buildings at that time, no property damage was caused. There is a basement in the pear garden. I put my things in the basement. Let me tell the story of Mr. Xie Weili and his wife. The first wife helped Mr. Xie Weili have several children, six of whom were boys. Some people suspect that she has been drinking well water. People call this well "the childbirth well". Xie Weili planted a tree beside the garden. This tree is very inspiring. As a result, he soon died of cancer. Mr. Xie Weili and his wife helped Mr. Xie Weili give birth to a child, and the child died after giving birth. Mr. Xie Weili married another wife. She has a piano, chess, books and paintings. Xie Weili married another concubine, and she married another person. The third wife died in 20xx and handed over the bunker to the country. In fact, Tang Gaozu also has a story. Mr. Xie Weili asked the feng shui master to measure feng shui there, because his first wife died and business was not very smooth. The Feng Shui master said that this mountain is called Tiger Mountain, facing you, so he wanted to buy some sons to scare the tiger. Xie Weili bought two lions from America. The feng shui master said that the lion's mouth was bleeding. Actually, the material is very poor. The feng shui master said to buy two tigers to whip the tigers. As a result, the tiger was injured and dared not do it again. People used to be superstitious.
The diaolou in Kaiping is not normal! Come and play in Kaiping and Liyuan when you are free! They must welcome you!
