Nanshe village ancient buildings

Nanshe Village was founded in the late Southern Song Dynasty. Nowadays, a large number of ancient buildings in Ming and Qing dynasties have been preserved, including 25 ancestral halls and more than 0/00 ancient houses. It is a cultural relic protection unit in Guangdong Province. At present, it has been declared as a famous historical and cultural village in China and is being declared as a national key cultural relics protection unit.

The village is centered on the pond, and there are many ancestral halls on both sides. The roadway is quiet, the houses are dense and the ancient rhyme is quiet. The ancient banyan trees are swaying, flourishing and lush. The village retains a large number of exquisite stone carvings, brick carvings, wood carvings, gray sculptures and pottery sculptures, which are of high historical, artistic and scientific value. The surrounding farmland is also preserved in large quantities, maintaining a fresh pastoral style.

The ancient buildings in Nanshe Village are different from Hakka wai and Chaoshan dwellings. They represent the characteristics of water towns in the Pearl River Delta. Each house is called "home temple" by a family, with its own well and Ma Shi alley in front. Each Mashi alley is separated by a small waterway. The most distinctive building is the "home temple", which is mostly a four-column and three-story masonry archway building. The building is a rest peak with a bucket arch under the eaves and beautifully carved wood carvings on its forehead. Hundreds of houses are scattered and intertwined, shining with classical charm among dense trees. Animals, flower and bird wood carvings and stone carvings on the gate of the "Family Temple" are all lifelike.

These ancient buildings, which integrate family temples, water houses and ancient wells, not only retain a relatively complete Ming and Qing culture, but also become a rare basis for investigating the living conditions of the residents in the early Pearl River Delta region, which is of great historical and cultural value and development and utilization value.
