Wengyuan Ancient Village: Homesickness stays here.

No matter how long a village lasts, there are always some unforgettable scenery or stories. Wengyuan Ancient Village is a remote village in qujiang district, surrounded by mountains on three sides and rich in nymphs. It is because of the barrier of mountains that Wengyuan was able to preserve the ancestral temple in the Song Dynasty, the houses in the Ming Dynasty and the pharmacies in the Qing Dynasty.

Going to Wengyuan Ancient Village is in a season close to late autumn. Starting from Yutan village, go upstream along the Wuxi River and along the steep Panshan Highway, where bamboo forests are dancing and streams are gurgling. The car suddenly stopped at a lush water mouth, and the car stopped at the gate of the village Committee by the stream in Wengyuan Village.

An ancient village with yellow and black alternating and built on the mountain comes into view. The old house with yellow mud wall is built on the mountain, and the local flavor reveals a little atmosphere, just like a faded Chinese painting slowly unfolding.

The entire ancient village's Horsehead Wall, carved beams and painted buildings are located on two hillsides in Xi Gu, Wengyuan. The houses are strewn at random according to the mountain, and the courtyard stands by the cliff, strewn at random. At the head of the village, there are nearly a thousand people watching the performance in the ancestral hall, and the shops on the shore are doing well. Miao Shuntai Pharmacy, built in the Qing Dynasty, experienced the prosperity here and showed the world that mysterious and heavy history.

The buildings in the village are mainly of primitive simplicity, and the gap between the rich and the poor at that time can also be seen. The buildings in the first row of the riverbank are all blue bricks, white walls and gray tiles, with cornices and arches, and the interior is finely carved, with a big yard. The mud houses built on the mountain are all yellow mud walls and black tiles.

The stream in the village divides the village into two parts. On both sides of the river, there is a Weng ancestral hall, and the houses are built according to the ancestral hall extending along the river in turn. Every household is connected by stone roads, so it is very convenient to get in and out.

Walking along Wengyuan Xi Gu, the smell of the earth came to my face. Green trees and blue sky are hidden in the village, as if looking at a roll of ancient paintings left between green mountains and green waters.

The village is full of old houses and the doors are open. Some old people are sitting in the shade at the door of the house for leisure. They look at us strangers who accidentally intrude into their lives. If anyone wants to come in and have a look, you are welcome. By the way, the origin of those old things at home.

Walking on the bridge behind the village, looking down, the dark tiles and winding stone roads exude faint light, and the white horse head wall blends with the house.

Weng Yuan was once brilliant, not to mention the exquisite window carving, wood carving and stone carving, not to mention the shiny stone road, not to mention the tall and precious objects in the hall, and the century-old Miaoshuntai drugstore, we can know how prosperous he was.

Tracing back to Xi Gu, surrounded by bamboo groves and palms, there is a century-old Taishun Miaoshuntai drugstore, which is simple and dignified. A cobblestone road in front of the store is smooth and shiny, and you can see the traces of wind erosion and rain erosion, cars running over horses and stepping on horses in the past 100 years. Walking on a section seems to have gone through thousands of years, becoming an ancient person, and measuring that history with footsteps.

Being in this quaint and elegant building complex, people who have lived in the city for a long time will definitely have a sigh and sigh of returning to their hometown. Looking at the corner of the blue sky framed by the eaves of the four corners, we may be able to touch how the people who built this house by themselves 100 years ago built all their dreams into this house with a beautiful imagination of future life.

With the changes of the times, these ancient villages, which once gave birth to several generations of civilizations, have been as lonely and dilapidated as an old man, and few people care about them. An ancient Wengyuan village, like all rural areas in China, young people go out to work, while wealthy people live in the city, leaving only a few old people guarding their once prosperous dreams.

Looking back on the past, Wengyuan Xi Gu surged like yesterday, and Castle Peak remained unchanged. It's just that things have changed, leaving only the pulse of Qingxi silently guarding this village with a vague appearance. An ancient village has become an unforgettable memory with the passage of time and the change of seasons.
