Illustration of the East West Temple Pagoda, an ancient building in my hometown.

My hometown is Xinye Village, Daciyan. There are many ancient buildings in Xinye Village: Orderly Hall, Shuangmei Hall, Cumulus Tower and yuquan temple, which are the "open-air museums" of ancient buildings in Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Jinyun Building is one of the landmark buildings, and I love it most. I'll be a little tour guide and talk about the origin and characteristics of Jinyun Building.

Jiyun Building, located at the entrance of the village, was built in Qin Long period of Ming Dynasty (1February 3, 567) and completed in Wanli period of Ming Dynasty (1575). It took more than eight years to build this tower, and its height is 38. 8 meters, 13 or so. 8 meters, due to the lack of terrain in the southeast of the village, used to supplement Feng Shui, so it was called "tower-seeking" by Fang Xun.

The tower is named after Zhuangzi, the "soaring nine Wan Li". Strictly speaking, in feudal society, it is not good for villages to build towers privately (towers can be built in counties or above the state capital). According to our current explanation, the ancestors of Xinye Village built the tower because:

1, feng shui. It forms a tripartite confrontation with Zushan-Yuhua Mountain and Chaoshan-Feng Dao.

2. Because the terrain of the whole village entrance is boat-shaped, the five hills at the village entrance are like five boats, so there are five boats going down the river. The tower is built to play a fixed role.

3. The literary movement in Xinye Village has been bad since it moved. This tower was built to cultivate the Confucian style. The tower rises into the sky like a big brush. Reflected in the ancestral temple and the square pond, and later Jinshi Ye Yuanxi, so Yun Qi Tower is also called Wenfeng Tower.

In ancient India, the pagoda was a symbol of people's wealth. Now Xinye Village has a population of more than 3,000.

In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, in addition to the tower, Kannonji, descendants' hall, land ancestral hall and side houses for outsiders were built (it is said that it was not good for people with physical surnames to live in the village for a long time before, wasn't it?

In the early years of Ming Dynasty, in addition to the tower, Kannonji, descendants' hall, land ancestral hall and side houses for outsiders were built (it is said that it was not good for people with foreign surnames to live in the village for a long time, otherwise it would break the feng shui).

The east of the tower is Lion Mountain and the west is Elephant Trunk Mountain, forming the layout of the village entrance where lions lock water.

In the past, there was a cypress forest next to the tower, which was cut down in the 1970s and the ancestral hall was changed into fertile land.

1In the autumn of 989, Professor Chen Zhihua, member of UNESCO and director of Tsinghua University Institute of Ancient Architecture, led graduate students to visit the ancient houses in Xinye Village. He said, "The modular building at the entrance of Xinye Village is the landmark building of the ancient village. Although it was not built in the same period, it embodies China's farming and reading culture and achieves harmony and unity. It is a must for ancient architecture in China. " 1994 Professor Chen's local series Xinye Village was published in Taiwan Province Province.
