Dazhou Ancient Village, Yangxi County, Yangjiang City | Beautiful Xiang Village.

Dazhou Ancient Village in Yangxi County, Yangjiang City is an ancient village where all ancestral houses are open to visitors. The numbers of the seven large houses reflect the order of the He family descendants. You can see the rise and fall of the seven children of the He family and their descendants, just like watching a TV series. On the right side of the entrance, there is a list of the descendants of the He family who have been admitted to universities, showing a family atmosphere of striving for progress and valuing education. The original residents lived in Zhuji Lane. During the Southern Song Dynasty, the imperial concubines competed for favor, and the disgraced Concubine Wu fled to Zhuji Lane to hide. The favored concubine secretly sent soldiers to massacre Zhuji Lane. The 33 surnames in Zhuji Lane then migrated southward. The He family first fled to Panyu, then moved to Shunde. Later, He Tianzhai opened an oil and sugar shop in the 16th year of the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty and managed it well. After making money, he hired a geomancer to choose a site for building a village, and finally chose this place. He first built a large house on the central axis and lived there for three years, and indeed prospered. So he built six more large houses of the same size, and built a backyard and embankment in the north, a row of granaries in the south, and wing rooms on the east and west sides. Dazhou Village built seven large houses in succession, and the seven sons of He Wu, Shaochang, Shaochang, Guifang, Guifen, Guizhi, Guihui, and Guie each lived in one. The houses were not divided by age or by drawing lots, but before moving in, the seven sons were told to run into the village and choose the house they liked. The youngest son, Guie, was the most scheming. During the construction of the village, he had already asked the geomancer about the best feng shui house, which was the one on the far west side. So, on the day of moving in, Guie ran straight to the west side of the village and moved into the house on the far west side. Location: Dazhou Ancient Village, Yangxi Parking: Free parking
