1. An essay about the Ancient Tea Horse Road A 700-word essay about the Ancient Tea Horse Road
The Ancient Tea Horse Road is about dozens of miles away from the city of Lijiang and stretches in the mountains. In the past, people used this road to transport salt and tea from Yunnan to distant Tibet. After we arrived at the racecourse, each of us chose a horse. I chose a maroon three-year-old pony, which looked very energetic. (There are no tall horses here, and big horses are not good at traveling long distances in high mountains).
Each Naxi horse leader leads one horse, one after another. The ancient road sometimes goes uphill and sometimes downhill. The road is very rugged, but the horses can walk under the orders of the horse leader. Calm and steady, but I guess I must have worn out my pony with being so heavy.
Since we are all riding horses for the first time, we are all a little nervous. When the horseshoe slips, we will think about whether we will fall to the ground and have a dog chew the mud; There is a large pond in the place. If you walk close to the pond, you will think about whether you will be thrown into the pond by a horse. . So at first I closed my eyes in fear at every turn, so I didn’t really enjoy riding on a horse at first even if I didn’t have to walk. I was so envious when I saw some villagers skillfully controlling the horse’s reins and commanding the horse to gallop gracefully. very.
When we get used to it, we will find that riding a horse is not that difficult. We must cooperate with the horse's uphill and downhill movements. When going downhill, the center of gravity of the horse must be backward, and the opposite is true when going uphill. Much more powerful. As I walked, I dared to straighten my waist, and I dared to hold the horse with my legs and use the reins to gently pull the horse to give instructions. I was brave and majestic. I felt like I had found it!
After walking on the Ancient Tea Horse Road for a long time, we arrived at a mountain spring. There was a large open area. The tour guide said it was a resting place for horses, where we could replenish feed and replenish physical energy. We also dismounted from our horses to stretch our nervous bodies. I walked up the mountain stream. The water was turbulent and crystal clear along the way. I soon found the source of the water. It originated from the mountain and was protected by the end of the virgin forest. It flowed down endlessly. I came to a spring again. Here, take a sip of water and drink it. It’s real mineral water, very sweet.
Follow the Ancient Tea Horse Road and you will succeed immediately!
I hope you will adopt it, thank you ~ 2. Write an essay about Yunnan
The South of Colorful Clouds
Just like a hibiscus, with heavy makeup and light makeup, it looks slim and graceful. It's like a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, outlined in ink and wash, and it's so beautiful. Listening to the sound of gurgling water in the distance and the mahogany carvings, it feels like you are entering a house with flowing water.
The ancient town is green and the people are affectionate
When I returned to Lijiang, my experience was a little different from the first time I went there. The white walls and green tiles of the ancient town remained unchanged, and the water wheel still kept turning. Business is still booming in the small shop, and there are also clerks in strange costumes shouting and soliciting business. The bar is still feasting and feasting all night long. The hustle and bustle of the night just brings out the tranquility of Lijiang Ancient Town. Lijiang's specialty snacks are found in the streets and alleys, including Yunnan's Eighteen Oddities and many delicacies, which are dazzling. In an instant, I saw a little girl about four or five years old, holding a handful of red roses, walking up to the tourists and whispering a few words. I saw a young man buying a few flowers and bringing them to the woman opposite him. The man is talented and the woman is beautiful. Seeing that little girl's sincere eyes again is still unforgettable. On the way back to the inn, I saw people selling fruits or snacks on both sides. Their voices were full of enthusiasm and sonorous, beckoning people to buy their things. I bought two bags of hard persimmons and gnawed one in my mouth. It was so sweet and slightly bitter.
The ancient road is narrow and the horses' hooves are fast
When we arrived in Lashihai again, we chose to ride the ancient tea horse road on horseback. On horseback, we looked up at the long white clouds and the rolling hills in front of us. mountains, and at the foot is the muddy Tea Horse Road. The Ancient Tea Horse Road, a thousand-year-old ancient road, makes people feel the weight of life and the vicissitudes of history. After a few minutes, we rode horses to the wetland for boating. Ripples appeared on the water. There was a green space and a water hyacinth in the middle of the lake. Looking at the green mountains in the distance, you are surrounded by a sea of ??flowers. It was raining suddenly, but I felt the charm of ancient style.
The ancient inn is long and quiet
We stayed at the Jinxiu Garden Inn in Lijiang. The environment here is quiet, with small bridges and flowing water, and is antique. Under the setting sun, the quaint Naxi folk houses show a bit of vicissitudes and accumulation of time. As night falls, Sifang Street is bustling with people. Next to the bonfire, Naxi grandmothers dance. The brisk beats and dancing flames interpret the ease of life here. The grandmother’s old face is reflected in the firelight, and she cannot see the ruthlessness of time. There are only happy smiles... The origin of Sifang Street is the center of the ancient town. It is a product of the Ancient Tea Horse Road culture and a portrayal of the caravan culture. It is this arduous Ancient Tea Horse Road that writes the long culture of northern Yunnan. As the night gets darker, the bar street becomes the best place to go, with bright lights and lively songs and beautiful songs. When you change glasses, you forget that you are in a foreign land. When you are intoxicated, you only know that you are lost for nine days. A touch of silence amid the hustle and bustle is a unique sight in Lijiang Ancient Town. It is shaded by elms and willows, surrounded by gurgling streams, with smoke rising straight up from the kitchen, and chickens and dogs hearing each other. It is an indescribable pastoral style and endless spring scenery. There are always flowers everywhere on the roadside, and there are also green willows. Passers-by are dressed in customary clothes, walking slowly in threes and fives, or one or two shoulder to shoulder. Even if they don't have fancy clothes, they are also in high spirits. They all have happy faces and no sad faces. Their joyful attitude can be compared to Taoyuan. At the beginning of the lanterns, the tired birds have returned to rest, and there are three or five people walking on the five-flowered stone road; the breeze is coming, the willow branches are swaying, and they are singing gracefully by the river entering the city.
The ancient tunes are spread far and wide
The long history of Lijiang continues our association of past and present lives. In a trance, it seems that Lijiang is the destination of past lives. It accepts passers-by from all directions. As a tourist, it is willing to become the scenery you pass by; and for those souls who have been wandering, it is their destination. The warm and clear sunshine of the plateau washes away the dust of their journey, and the sacred breeze of the snow-capped mountains blows away their fatigue, but the road is still stretched out in front of them, reminding them that they can still continue on the road. However, at the same time, this is also saying: This road you take out is also your way back. However, Lijiang is also the hometown of wandering wandering singers. In their music, you may be able to hear the wandering footsteps, the vicissitudes of breathing, the measurement of the road and life, and at the same time, the power of ideals surges like the ocean tide. Lijiang accepted them and at the same time nurtured them, allowing them to fulfill their original musical dreams.
Ancient tea has a light and refreshing fragrance
Lijiang Snow Tea has a high status in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. According to the "Supplementary Materials of Compendium of Materia Medica", "Snow Tea is not a tea. It is a kind of grass bud that is born in the wild. The natives pick it, roast it, and cook it instead of tea. It warms the stomach and has a bitter and pungent taste." Today, I was lucky enough to taste the white dew from the snowy mountains of Lijiang. I took a sip and found the bitter and rich aftertaste. Another sip found me intoxicated by the light and sweet taste. This is Lijiang’s snow-capped mountains and white dew.
Staying alone in the study, brewing a cup of tea, the smoky aroma of tea is rippling. Gently opening the paper, I smell the elegant fragrance of books. She is different from the fragrance of flowers, refreshing people's imagination. She abandons the filthiness of the world and allows people to stay alone in their empty rooms. The stream of scholarly fragrance flows slowly, running towards the vast sea, brewing infinite power. I chatted closely with poems and books, hoping to store up rich knowledge.
Looking back on this trip to Lijiang, I have indescribable feelings, so I can only express my infinite feelings for Lijiang in this way. 3. A 650-word essay on a trip to Yunnan
During the summer vacation, my father and I went to Yunnan for a trip.
Yunnan is a lot of fun. There are many scenic spots there: stone forests, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, ancient towns, the Ancient Tea Horse Road, primitive parks, etc. My favorite among these attractions is the Ancient Tea Horse Road, where there is a kind of horse that is twice as small as a normal horse, but its strength is several times stronger than a normal horse! Its name is Dian Horse.
We rode such a horse on the mountain road. The mountain road was steep and slippery. The horse moved forward and backward when walking. No wonder its name is called Dian Horse. It is really well-deserved! So we were very nervous. At this time, the horse trainer started to sing to each other. Slowly we relaxed and were no longer so nervous. We also sang songs. I quietly said to the horse: "Brother Ma, you Can you go faster, let me *** ***!" The horse seemed to understand my words and ran faster and happier. My mood is the same as that of the horse, and I am even happier! We slowly approached the finish line and dismounted safely. I am still reluctant to leave the Tea Horse Road.
I recommend that everyone also travel to Yunnan! 4. Horse riding on the Ancient Tea Horse Road 1000-word composition
Horse riding on the Ancient Tea Horse Road in Lijiang
Today, we are going to ride horses on the Ancient Tea Horse Road, wow! It’s my first time to ride a horse, and it’s also my first time to go to the Tea Horse Trail. I’m so excited!
The Ancient Tea Horse Road, that is, people in the past transported tea and other goods, mainly tea. Why is it called an ancient road? Because this road is ancient and time-honored.
We were going to take Line 2. After my mother paid the money, I rode on my horse, and Sister Zhangzhou also rode on her horse.
My horse has a pair of big, black eyes and black fur. His name is 'Ahei Ge', which is the title of a Yi man. Sister Zhangzhou's horse also has a pair of big eyes and brown fur. Its name is "Chili", which shows that it has a violent character. Sister Zhangzhou, you have to be careful!
Halfway through the ride, I realized that no one was holding my horse. The person holding Sister Zhangzhou’s horse said that my horse had a good personality, so it didn’t need to be held by anyone. Suddenly Zhangzhou's sister's horse stopped, and for some reason my horse also stopped, and then that person's bodyguard dog Xiaosi also stopped. When Chili left, Ah Hei "Brother" is gone, "Brother Ahei" is gone, and so is Xiao Si'er. We later learned that 'Ahei Ge', 'Chili' and Xiao Si'er were as close as brothers because they were all raised by that person.
We passed through winding roads and small bridges, and finally reached the first resting point. We dismounted and went to take pictures together. After taking the photos, we started riding horses again. I rode ‘Pepper’ and Sister Zhangzhou rode ‘Brother Ahei’. We switched.
On the road, I found that each family kept several horses. I counted them and found that they had at most 9 horses and at least 2 horses. Sister Zhangzhou’s horse either walked on the edge or on the dirt road. Fortunately, I didn’t ride ‘Brother Ahei’. Halfway through, my mother also found someone to take photos for us.
Time flies so fast! When we reached the end, I reluctantly left the Tea Horse Road. 5. I love the Tea Horse Road, a 700-word essay
Seeing the horses going back and forth, I doubted my eyes a little.
Is it a horse or a donkey? Very different from the last horse I rode in Mongolia. One is tall and powerful, the other is thin and capable. Will we ride on them later to see the beauty and mystery of the ancient trails? I was confused. The locals seemed to see a trace of confusion in my eyes and explained to me: Even though they are not tall, they can carry a weight of 200 kilograms. When the mountain people spoke, their eyes were full of pride and pride towards the horses, which made me stand in awe of these "hidden" horses.
The tinkling of horse bells broke the tranquility of the mountain, seeming to tell the mountain that someone was coming. When I was at the bottom of the mountain, I didn't feel that when I first walked into the mountain, it was like walking into a huge maze or a huge painting. Looking through the gaps in the forest, the sky was as blue as if it had just been washed, with no white clouds in sight. Surrounded by layers of mountains, the mountains are lush with trees. Walking in the mountains and forests, your ears will hear the chirping of birds and cicadas from time to time, but you can't find it. For future generations, along with the freshness of the leaves and the mellow fragrance of the land, I couldn't help but stand in awe of these "hidden" horses. The lush trees on the mountain saw the horses going back and forth. Because it was early in the morning, I still felt very excited. I knew that the ancient road contained many joys and sorrows, and maybe every tree had many beautiful memories. Is it a horse or a donkey? I doubted my eyes a little. What I breathed in was humid air. For those of us who are used to breathing the mixed air of the city, it included the dreams and youth stories of our ancestors.
Did the tinkling of horse bells break the tranquility of the mountains? I was confused in my heart, and I looked back at this ancient road that had been trampled on. Today, the Tea Horse Road has lost the "Tea Horse", leaving only the "Old Road", like a ribbon wrapped around a person's waist, with no edges. When I stopped chatting with the people in the mountains, it felt like I had stepped into a huge painting or a reverie. He explained to me: Although they are not tall, a few birdsong and cicadas would penetrate my ears from time to time. I was watching the scenery.
On horseback. A tall and mighty one. Will we ride on them later to see the beauty and mystery of the ancient roads? Looking through the gaps in the forest, I couldn't find where they were. My eyes were filled with pride and pride for the horses.
The whole morning passed unconsciously. Along the way, just walking into the mountains seemed to tell the mountains. Surrounded by mountains. The waist of the mountain in the distance is surrounded by white clouds. Although there are mountain people leading the horses, the ground under the horses' feet is very moist, and every unobtrusive pebble carries a lot of laughter and tears. But after calling loudly, someone is coming. On this road, a thin and capable person, with occasional slippage of the horse's hooves, is like walking into a huge maze, a piece of history, the sky is as blue as if it has just been washed, and a story for the traveler, two hundred camels It's no big deal to carry a lot of stuff, and it's a very pleasant feeling to walk in the mountains and forests. Don’t you think it’s scary and heavy when you’re at the bottom of the mountain? Very different from the last horse ride I had in Mongolia, the mountain roads were steep. When the mountain people were talking, there was not a single white cloud in sight.
The locals seemed to see a trace of doubt in my eyes. 6. Write a 400-word essay about Zhiyun Temple in Lijiang

This is a picture of the prosperous ancient city in the East - Lijiang, which is like a picture of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival"!
It is one of my country’s four world natural and cultural heritage sites. It stands like a bright pearl in the northwest of Yunnan. Its ancient Dongba culture is a mystery that has amazed both China and foreign countries. Treasure.
Lijiang is a multi-ethnic town, dominated by the Naxi people. The ancient city of Lijiang is like a paradise, with paths paved with colorful flowers and stones passing through the streets. The Yuquan River at the foot of the Elephant Mountain is divided into countless tributaries. , winding through streets and alleys, dotted with small towns, forming a poetic and picturesque landscape of "water flowing in front of every house, willows hanging behind every house".

I was so mesmerized. 7. Essay on riding horses up the mountain on the Tea Horse Road
During the summer vacation, I made an appointment with a few classmates to travel to Lijiang with their parents.
Lijiang’s scenery is beautiful and pure, which left a good impression on me. The most unforgettable thing for me was riding up the mountain on the Tea Horse Trail! Since the scenic spot is on a mountain and the mountain road is very narrow, we must each have a horse and ride up the mountain.
Everyone sat on the horse, holding the armrests on the saddle with both hands, and put their feet into the stirrups hanging on both sides of the saddle. Everything is ready, let’s go! Accompanied by the sound of horse hooves "De'er, De'er", a large number of people and horses are about to go up the mountain! The horse driver taught us tips on horseback riding: "When going uphill, lean your body forward so that it can stick to the horse's back; when going downhill, lean back and push your feet hard."
On the uphill slope We did this when going downhill and downhill. It turns out that this can maintain the balance of the body. Along the mountain road, the horses moved forward hard.
There are many pits on the mountain road of the Tea Horse Ancient Road, which are made by the hooves of horses over the years. The horse I rode was very disobedient. The other horses followed the old hoof prints one by one, but it didn't take the usual path. It walked on something that no horse had ever stepped on before.
In addition, it doesn’t look at the road and often slips under its feet. It almost knocked me down several times! I have to be careful. At first glance, it seemed that these horses were not very tall, and they had to carry people on mountain roads, so I felt pity.
In fact, there is no need to worry, because the tour guide said that this is a purebred jade dragon horse with good endurance and suitable for walking on mountain roads. The tall horses on the grassland are not suitable for walking on narrow and steep mountain roads.
"Snoring, snoring." What is the sound? I was shocked! It turned out that the horse immediately behind me couldn't stand the praise and snored. It must be exhausted.
Huh? Why can't the team stop moving? Haha, it turns out the two horses in front are about to pee! It was indeed horse urine, just splashing everywhere on the mountain road. This horse I ride is so naughty! It took advantage of this moment that the owner was not paying attention and leaned to the side of the road to eat grass.
Time slipped away as our moods changed. After a while, the mountain road was over. At the end of the journey, I was still not satisfied and reluctantly got off the horse. I wished the road could be longer.

[Caiyunzhinan: Yunnan Tourism Composition] During this winter vacation, I came to Yunnan to travel. As soon as I got off the plane from Kunming, I felt that it was spring again. Caiyunzhinan : Yunnan tourism composition.
The sky here is clearer than elsewhere, the air is so fresh, and the mountains are so majestic, both amazing and friendly. We set off from Kunming and went to Lijiang.
The tour guide told us that it is only more than 500 kilometers from Kunming to Lijiang, but it takes nine hours by car, and the entire journey is on the highway. The tourists were surprised and puzzled.
When driving on the expressway, I found that their expressway was different from the expressway in Liaoning. The road was very narrow, winding like a belt between high mountains and ridges, and there were cliffs on both sides, as if by accident. It will fall down, giving people a sudden chill, but a little more excitement. We also admire the driver's superb driving skills.
The tour guide said that right under our feet was the Ancient Tea Horse Road. In the past, when transportation was inconvenient, mules, horses and camels were used to carry goods to deliver daily necessities to people in the mountains, and to transport tea from the mountains to all directions of the motherland.
At this time, the sound of bells seemed to ring in my ears, and the prosperous scene of business travelers on the Tea Horse Road seemed to appear in front of me. It was already evening when we arrived in Lijiang, and as the sun slowly set in the west, it spread its sunset red color to every corner.
Against the backdrop of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, the ancient city of Lijiang looks even more like a fairyland. The next day, we came to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.
Jade Dragon Snow Mountain has thirteen peaks in the whole mountain. The top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round, like a jade dragon lying on the top of the mountain. It has the potential to leap into the Jinsha River, so it is named. Moreover, she is the incarnation of the Naxi protector god. . I have seen the cascading peaks of Mount Huang, the majestic Mount Tai, and the red-as-fire Fragrant Mountain, but nothing compares to the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.
Just like the poet Li Jing of the Song Dynasty said, "Lijiang's snow-capped mountains are the most beautiful in the world, and there are thousands of piles of jade." It is not only beautiful, but also very interesting.
It is summer at the foot of the mountain, spring and autumn on the mountainside, and winter at the top of the mountain. When we took the cable car halfway up the mountain, the weather was really as cool as autumn.
At this time, I looked at the snow-capped mountains again. She was closer to us, and her lines were even more magnificent. The Blue Moon Valley at the foot of the mountain shocked me again. The blue water and the blue sky. , the beautiful snow-capped mountains merge into one, and the Jade Pool is like a crystal clear sapphire inlaid in the valley. Lijiang not only has beautiful snow-capped mountains, but also quaint ancient cities, small bridges, flowing water, and people. The beautiful scenery that can only be seen in the Jiangnan area can also be seen here.
People wash clothes and chat in front of their homes, working at sunrise and resting at sunset, which is a leisurely and comfortable scene. There are many more beautiful places like this. I hope you will also go to Yunnan to take a look and appreciate its beauty.
Beautiful Yunnan, you make me nostalgic, lovely Yunnan, you make me recall, don’t you let me linger? . 10. An essay about folk houses in Yunnan
Folk houses in Tengchong, Yunnan: The ancient city of Tengchong, located in southwest Yunnan, is adjacent to Myanmar and is known as the first city in the extreme edge of China.
The road to Tengchong is blocked by Gaoligong Mountain, and the Nu River and Lancang River cross it. Transportation is inconvenient, but it is not uninterested. In recent years, self-guided tourism has become a new trend, and the volcanic and geothermal hot springs here have attracted many tourists.
Far away from the hustle and bustle of industrialization, the air is fresh, with blue sky and white clouds, green mountains and green waters, and scattered white villages scattered among the golden rice fields in autumn, creating an atmosphere of peace and tranquility.
The folk houses in Huizhou are characterized by their simple and plain white walls and black tiles. The folk houses in Yunnan also have white walls and gray tiles, but many colorful paintings are added to the details, which are bright in color and reflect local and ethnic characteristics.
Similarly, not far from the outskirts of Tengchong, Heshun, a small ancient town nestled among mountains and rivers, has gained multiple reputations, such as "the first town facing South Asia; a leisure resort surrounded by volcanoes; Han culture and A window for the blending of South Asian and Western cultures; a land of emeralds brought by caravans; the largest hometown of overseas Chinese on the Southwest Silk Road; an ancient town and scenic spot where 6,000 residents live harmoniously, etc., and has become a charming town in China. Since ancient times, because it is located on the strategic route from the Central Plains to South Asia, even though it is far away from the mountains, it cannot stop people's desire to open up borders and promote exchanges.
Specialty products were exported overseas through the Tea Horse Road, which strengthened economic and cultural ties with Myanmar and India, and also cultivated many business gangs in Heshun. The twists and turns of the walking horse corner buildings in the ancient town follow the stone paths of the caravans and are full of human touch.
The nearby volcanoes are dotted all over the place, which enhances the momentum of the natural environment, but you have to climb a hot air balloon to overlook it from the sky to feel this style. The people of Heshun Ancient Town have lived a life of businessmen, overseas Chinese, farmers and Confucians for generations. In a traditional society where social division of labor is not obvious, they play multiple roles according to needs.
The ancient town produced modern celebrity Ai Siqi, which is related to the writing style here, and a rural library in the town is a condensation of history and culture. Heshun Library was built in the Republic of China. At that time, a group of young people with progressive ideas established the Xianxinshe (Xianyu Reform) here to study and spread revolutionary ideas.
Intellectuals realized the importance of mobilizing the masses, so they built a library here so that the villagers could also receive cultural influence. This seemingly inconspicuous approach reflected the active interaction between the intellectual class and the general public at that time, which was conducive to laying a mass foundation for the revolution, let alone in such a remote mountainous area.
As a rural library, its scale is naturally limited, but it has certain symbolic significance as a cultural symbol. In 2006, Heshun Library was included in the sixth batch of national key cultural relics protection units.
Walking across the small bridge and flowing water shaded by banana leaves, and entering Heshun Ancient Town, the first thing that catches your eye is the Heshun Library sitting on the hillside. Climb up the stairs and progress step by step.
The gate is a traditional Chinese-style wooden gatehouse, with plaques reading "Heshun Library" and "Source of Culture". The second entrance to the courtyard is a three-bay archway made of bricks with a combination of Chinese and Western styles, which is written as "a cultural center".
The terrain here is gradually getting higher. Looking back from the top, you can have a panoramic view of the natural and cultural customs of the ancient town. Entering the door is the main building of the library - a small building in modern national style.
Mainly made of wood, the environment is simple and elegant, and the hanging red lanterns add to the festive atmosphere. The auxiliary buildings in the form of hexagonal pavilions are used on both sides, with upturned eaves and corners, making them light and flying, and can also receive light sources from multiple angles.
The use of three-dimensional windows also increases the lighting area, which absorbs the characteristics of Western architecture and adapts to the needs of library reading. Walking into the book lending room, it is not large in area and displays many newspapers, magazines and books, as well as several desks, which are still used by villagers for leisure reading.
Especially the elderly in the village come here to read and enjoy the fun of knowledge. The indoor display and structure still retain the characteristics of the Republic of China era, and the ancient pendulum clock records the passage of time.
Every inch of time is worth an inch of gold. The last one you enter is the Zangmi Building, which was expanded in the 1930s. It is said to have collected many rare ancient books and is also used as a reserve for the library.
This two-story building has Western characteristics, and the inscription "Guge Wenjin" seems to echo the Wenjin Pavilion in the Summer Resort where the Sikuquanshu Collection is collected, and the Wenjin Pavilion in the main building of the old Beijing Library. There are some in the royal family in the capital, but also in small villages.
The beautiful Heshun Ancient Town has also remained new due to the continuation of its cultural context. Supplementary answer: The Bai people are a nation that loves art, which can be fully reflected in their residential buildings.
Located at the foot of Cangshan Mountain and on the shore of Erhai Lake, Xizhou in Dali is the highlight of Bai residential architecture. According to historical records, this was the capital of Nanzhao King Yimouxun in the Tang Dynasty.
In that era of prosperous ancient culture, Bai craftsmen absorbed the rich architectural art of the Central Plains and exerted their creative talents, gradually forming their own national architectural style. The residential buildings in Xizhou are all independent and enclosed houses, a bit like the courtyard houses in Beijing.
A dignified residential courtyard is mainly composed of courtyard walls, gates, screen walls, main rooms, and left and right side rooms. Due to the different living status of the people in the past, the architectural style and form of the houses were also different.
The general architectural form is: "two rooms and one ear"; "three rooms and one screen wall". A few wealthy households live in "four in five patios", that is, four square high rooms, four square ear rooms, and a large well. , four small patios. In addition, there are the "Liu Tie Chun" that connects the two courtyards; the "Ziu Ma Zhuan Loft" that connects the upstairs and downstairs by corridors, etc. It is really diverse and like a maze.
However, this kind of ancient, expensive and gorgeous residence is no longer used by the local Bai people. Nowadays, most of the houses are two-story buildings with their own courtyards.
