Yangchi Ancient Village, the first village in Lingnan, is located in Fengkai, Guangdong

Yangchi Ancient Village, known as the 'first village in Lingnan', is a Ming and Qing cultural heritage site hidden in the deep mountains. It is located in Luodong Town, Fengkai County, Zhaoqing City, Guangdong Province, nearly thirty kilometers away from the county town. All villagers are surnamed Ye, once a family, after hundreds of years of reproduction and growth, they formed a village. The ancient Ming and Qing architectural complex, surrounded by green mountains and rivers, is like a paradise. In front of the Ye's ancestral hall in the village, there is a pool of water that is green all year round and clear to the bottom. Willows are planted by the pool. The willows swaying in the wind are reflected in the pool, like an ink painting, hence the village is named 'Yangchi Village'. Yangchi Ancient Village is built according to the mountain, with a well-arranged layout. There are more than sixty brick-wood structures with hard mountain tops or rest mountain tops from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. They are all two or three courtyards. There are also five academies (learning palaces), four book rooms, Chujing, Jinggong, Junlu, Jingong, and an ancient bank, which have a history of four to five hundred years. The buildings in the village are all made of large rectangular granite stones that have been carefully carved by hand. They can prevent moisture and pests, and are durable. The architectural structure is tight and symmetrical, and the shape is beautiful and exquisite. There are doors, screens, etc. in the house, with small doors knocking on each other, the roof ridge is raised, and the tile ridge and the top of the main door are carved with patterns of flowers, birds, insects, fish, dragons, phoenixes, and unicorns. There are calligraphy and painting, the craftsmanship is exquisite, lifelike, and the art and architecture are perfectly integrated. The 'Ye's Family Tree' recorded in Yangchi Village and the exquisite architecture today show that the entire Yangchi Village was built by the ancestor Ye Hanbiao. His one son and three grandsons gradually developed and have been passed down to the present. It is the fifteenth generation of Ye Hanbiao. Ye Hanbiao came from a scholarly family. His descendants inherited the good family style of farming and reading, respected teachers and emphasized education, knew books and etiquette, and coupled with the outstanding people and the spirit of the land, the family has produced talents in generations, and there are more than 30 literati who can write poetry and paint. Among them, a plaque is still preserved on the door frame of Ye Xianmin's house in the village. It is a grace plaque awarded by Ye Zushan, the first scholar in the second year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty. There have also been monitors, students, increase students, and students, etc. The family has had three people serving as the county head of Fengchuan, and there are many outstanding people such as pilots and professors. The traditional Chinese culture is passed down from generation to generation. Most of the ancient Ming and Qing buildings in Yangchi Ancient Village have been preserved, some of which are already in ruins. Nowadays, most of the descendants of Ye's family have settled in the city, and only a few older people in the village still love the place where they grew up and are still sticking to it, which is a bit lonely. The centenarian who lives alone, her face full of wrinkles and sparse teeth are traces left by the years, and she has witnessed the long history of the ancient village. 📍Location: Yangchi Ancient Village, Luodong Town, Fengkai County, Zhaoqing City, Guangdong 🚗Transportation: Self-driving from Fengkai County is thirty kilometers away, or it is not far from Wuzhou, Guangxi.

The birthplace of Cantonese, climbing the first tower in Lingnan, where the Xijiang and Hejiang rivers converge

Guangxin Tower, the cultural landmark of this thousand-year-old city stands on the top of Rhino Mountain, surrounded by mountains at the back, and in front is the vast water view where the Xijiang and Hejiang rivers converge, with a very advantageous geographical location. As soon as you arrive at the foot of the tower, what comes into view is the towering and spectacular archway. Following the meaningful stone steps step by step, we finally arrived at the foot of Guangxin Tower. The four characters "Dong Kai Yue Jing" on the plaque of the first floor are like the bell of history, striking out the unique historical mark of Fengkai as the boundary between Guangdong and Guangxi and the origin of Cantonese. Stepping into the tower, climbing layer by layer, each layer seems to be able to touch the traces of time. Climbing to the top of the tower, the view suddenly opens up, and the spectacular scene of the two rivers converging makes people's hearts surge. The Fengkai Museum next to the tower is like a vivid historical book, showing us the historical celebrities and major events of Fengkai County with a variety of cultural relics and detailed graphic explanations, especially highlighting its important role as the origin of Cantonese, making Guangxin Tower a must-visit place to explore the source of Guangfu culture. The ancient city of Fengkai still retains its charm, the ancient city wall is winding and twisting, like a sleeping dragon guarding a piece of land and water. The ancient city gate of Fengcheng is still well preserved today, thanks to the careful maintenance of local scholars from all generations and the enhancement of modern cultural relic protection awareness. The ancient city gate has witnessed how many wars and smoke, and has carried how many merchants and travelers, although it has been eroded by wind and rain, it still stands proudly, telling the prosperity and changes of the ancient post station. We communicated with the local elderly, they spoke authentic Fengkai dialect - this ancient dialect is the origin of Cantonese. Through the narration of the elderly, we learned that Cantonese originally took root and sprouted on this land, and gradually spread to the Pearl River Delta and even the global Chinese community with population migration and commercial exchanges, becoming the language bond for tens of millions of people.
