Cuanxia Village was built in Yongle period of Ming Dynasty, with a history of more than 500 years. Looking up at the whole village from the ancient road opposite the south of the village, the village is built on the mountain, and it has a lot of momentum. The buildings in the village are mainly quadrangles in Qing Dynasty, but also in Ming Dynasty style, which is different from quadrangles in Beijing. The gates here are all located in the southeast corner of the yard, and the gable of each main house is supported by Taishan column, which means that the east grows. The house under the blanket is exquisitely built, and the brick hanging flower door is as well-behaved as the house of the rich in Beijing. There is a pier under it, a doornail on it, a shrine to the door god next to it, a mural of "Fushoulu" on the wall, and a purple stone at the foot. Look at the quadrangle built on the mountain. Although limited by terrain and space, we should strictly follow the rules. Into the gatehouse, it must be a screen wall inlaid with carved bricks. There are many designs on the wall, from the murals symbolizing good luck and wealth, such as wishing children success, happy family and magpies climbing branches in the Qing Dynasty, to the quotations of leaders in the Red Age and the slogans of leaping forward on the road to great success, all of which are complete and record the whole process of village history in detail.
Although the space in the yard is not large, the yards of each family are still patchwork and well-laid. Most exquisite courtyards are divided into front and back floors, and the left side is connected by small passages. The eldest son lives in the front yard, and the illegitimate child lives in the left and right rooms. In the backyard, the old man lives in the first room, and the side room is the young lady's boudoir. Different room owners, even the patterns of window lattice are different. The whole courtyard has clear priorities. This reflects the culture under the blanket. Even if you live in a secluded place in the mountains, you will never lose your dignity and rules. Every household in the village provides farmhouse meals and catering services. Just walk into every house and the host will ask you if you want to eat. If you ask for permission, they will be happy to make a fire and build a stove. Even if you don't want to eat here, they will enthusiastically put tea and chat with you, and will never leave you out because of the business of a meal.
Lingshui village
Lingshui Village advocates culture and pursues fame and fortune since ancient times. It takes advantage of the beautiful scenery of Lingshan here, with outstanding people, rich products and developed trade. Since the imperial examination system prevailed in China, Lingshui people have become more and more famous. It is said that there are 22 juren and 2 Jinshi in this village. In particular, Liu Zengguang and Liu Maoheng, the "famous" four officials and two virtues, influenced this land, and thus produced the world-famous juren culture in Lingshui Village. Now, in order to meet the needs of tourism development, Lingshui Village is named "Juren Village in Lingshui, Beijing". The name of the village on the screen in front of the village was inscribed by Mr. Yang Zaichun, a famous national calligrapher. Lingshui Village in Zhaitang Town, Ximentougou, Beijing is a thousand-year-old village, which has been quite large since Liao Dynasty at the latest. At that time, the economy was quite developed, and there were more than a dozen firms, of which eight were the most famous, known as the "Eight Lobby".
Looking from Nanling in the south of the village, the village looks like a turtle, which is one of the "four spirits" and a symbol of good luck and longevity. In the past, there were 36 stone mills and 72 wells in the village, with good feng shui and outstanding people. That's probably why the village is named. Come on.
Lingshui Village is called "Juren Village in Jingxi", because the villagers' style of writing is very prosperous, and people who have achieved fame and fortune in the village have emerged one after another since Ming and Qing Dynasties. There are many sayings about the eight scenic spots in Lingshui. Now there are mainly: Dongling Shiren, Nandian Beitiao, Xishan Lotus, Beishan Bai Cui, Bai Bao Sang Yu, Lingquan Ginkgo, Juren House and Piaoyu Villa.
It is rich in products and simple in folk customs, leaving many cultural relics and historical sites, which is a good place for folk culture tourism. Tourism projects in the village have never been developed, but in recent years, with the exploration and guidance of district and township cultural departments and experts, tourism has gradually developed. In the autumn of 200 1 year (August 6th), the traditional "autumn porridge festival" was resumed, and the "autumn porridge festival" in 2002 was August 8th. "Drinking autumn porridge" is a custom in the village. In the seventh year of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty (1668), during the flood in Zhaitangchuan, Liu Yingquan and his son donated stones 1700 to help the victims, and they did so many times later. In order to commemorate this event, the villagers changed the beginning of the autumn festival to "autumn porridge festival" and raised funds to buy cauldrons. You give me a handful of rice, I give you a handful of beans, you add water, I add firewood, and everyone drinks "Juren porridge". The site of "East Lake Forest Man" is located on the west side of East Lake Forest Village, Zhaitang Town, Mentougou District. The discovery of this site is an important discovery in the archaeological history, and it also makes the world more aware that there are still many places worth exploring in ancient Beijing. The site is located between the Pleistocene Malan Loess Platforms. This site is a site of human culture in the early Neolithic period, about 1 10,000 years ago, and was discovered in 1.966. Fossils of human bones unearthed from cultural sites were identified as two adult males and one young female. In the neck of the girl's body, there is a necklace made of a small snail's shell and a bone bracelet made of a calf's flank bone on her wrist. This shows that in the early Neolithic period, human aesthetic consciousness has begun to sprout. Although these are rough to us, they are indeed a great progress in the history of human development. This cultural site is another major discovery after the Paleolithic cultural sites of "Beijingers" and "cavemen". It was named "Donghu Linren" because it was found in Donghu Lincun.
Through the second excavation, the stratum accumulation of the whole site was basically clarified. Before, we only knew the tombs of people in Donghu Forest. From the analysis of various signs, the burning remains found in this site should be a fire pit used by human beings at that time and an important evidence of human activities here. The discovery of a large number of stone products, bone products, animal bones, burning remains and stone factory also reflected the living conditions of Donghu people at that time, indicating that in the early Neolithic period about 654.38 million years ago, the economic activities of Donghu people were still mainly gathering and hunting, and the hunting objects were mainly deer. The relics unearthed in this site mainly include stone products, bone products, pottery fragments, animal bones and fruit shells. Take stone products as the bulk, including stone cores, stone chips, chopping tools, stone hammers, scrapers, sharp objects, fine stone leaves, stone chips, stone chips and so on. There are also polished stone mills, stone grinding rods and so on. Bone products include sharp instruments, bone cones, joints and so on. There are only a few pieces of pottery, mostly belly films and negatives, and occasionally along the mouth. Most of the pottery pieces are reddish brown, with sand grains, loose texture and uneven temperature. Some pottery pieces are reddish brown in appearance and black in inner wall. Except for a few extra pile patterns, they are all plain pottery. From the cross section, some pottery pieces fall off inside and outside, which seems to be made of sticky mud pieces. On the whole, most of them are pieces of cans.
There are many animal bones. Most of them are deer limbs, jawbones and teeth, and pig remains have also been found. In addition, a large number of mussel shells, snail shells and snails were found. Very few mussels have holes and abrasions, so they should be decorations.
