Chuan Di Xia Village Located 90 KM away west of Beijing is one of China's well preserved ancient villages with the history of over 500 years. The village is known for its 70 conserved traditional courtyard buildings from the Ming Dynasty. The village's buildings were damaged during the Japanese occupation and during the Cultural Revolution, and remain in this damaged state, frozen in time. Remnants of occupation can still be found around the village. Now just over 30 people still live in the village. Architects calls this village “the living museum” of local Chinese housing. This area is great for hiking, offering a range of walks suitable for families as well we experience as well as very experienced walks. |
