China's rural revitalization: Xifu Native Town

    Goethe said, "Architecture is flowing music"; in the world of architects, "events generate space", classical and traditional, modern and post-modern have incomparable extraordinary charm. In the eyes of ordinary people, the residential buildings that have been passed down to this day are the manifestation of the wisdom of thousands of years of life, and a simple "home".

    Standing at the gate of Xifu Old Street, in the warm spring breeze, the crisp sound of bells is looming. When I approached the gatehouse and looked up, I found that under the background of the blue sky, the copper bells hanging on the eaves of the well-carved archway swayed with the wind, responding to the gentleness of the spring. The architectural view of Laojie starts from this gatehouse with four-pillar, three-door and thirteen-color bucket arches with the highest specifications of classical architecture and purely handmade.

    The entire archway uses pure and gorgeous colors. With gate towers as the representative, many buildings in the old street have extremely high architectural specifications. Entering the old street, the Dangjia Mansion on the right hand side is the first place to visit.

    The Xieshanding building in the old street is magnificent and magnificent. Needless to say, the magnificence of the "Nine Ridges", the hard mountain tops often used in northern dwellings can always be found inadvertently.

    "Stone carving", "brick carving" and "wood carving" are known as the three talents of traditional architecture, which are also the three talents that touch the soul of architecture.
