What travelers say:

In Fogang County, Qingyuan City, more than 100 kilometers north of Guangzhou, there is an ancient village called "Shangyue". Although it is inconspicuous and there are few people who know it, but as long as you are in a corner away from the hustle and bustle of the city, listen to the pure tranquility and taste the story of time carefully. You will find a precious world here. Shangyue Village was founded in the Song Dynasty and Sheng in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is an ancient village in Lingnan with a history of more than 720 years. The ancient style and ancient charm have a deep heritage. This original ecological village seems to be forgotten in time, but the world slowly finds its beauty, so that it has been rated as "the most beautiful village in Guangdong Province". "Guangdong ancient village", "China's historical and cultural village" and other reputations. As early as the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhu Wenhuan, a famous general, resisted the Yuan soldiers and escorted the Southern Song emperor to the Beijiang Golden Fish Tsui, was tragically martyred, and his son fled to Shangyue Village when the soldiers and horses were in chaos. Today, the villagers living here are mostly the 32nd generation of Zhu Wenhuan. The whole village is built on the mountain, surrounded by water, and the villagers live in houses. There are four Yuelou buildings in the southeast and northwest on all sides. The village has 18 buildings, 18 gate buildings, 18 fish ponds, 18 ancient wells, distributed in each village, forming a central, two residential areas, streets connected to the pattern of the courtyard. In Shangyue Ancient Village, most of the building facilities are still well preserved, which can be called the typical "Guangfu Culture" ancient buildings in Guangdong Province, known as the pot ear house. Cantonese so-called "stupid ear", meaning pot ear, this building is the representative of Lingnan traditional houses, mostly made of blue brick, stone pillars, stone slabs, the outer walls have flower and bird patterns, because its gables like pot ears, so called "pot ear house". Today, there are hundreds of intact pot ear houses in Shangyue Ancient Village. The architectural style belongs to the Ming and Qing Lingnan style. The shape of the pot ear house looks like the official hat worn by officials in the Ming Dynasty. It is said that such houses were not ordinary people who could build at will, but had merit and fame. Only the owner of the family is eligible to build. #Summer is here #Ancient Villages Visited by Time #Ancient Villages
