The formation of a fishing village is probably because it is surrounded by mountains and seas. Backed by mountains and facing the sea, life in the fishing village was free at first. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, after Xiamen was founded, Zengcuoan Village, located in the south of Xiamen Port, also became a military hub. During the Qing Dynasty, a navy division was stationed here, and after the Revolution of 1911, the Kuomintang's "Naval Aviation Department" and the airport were also here. After War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation, the location function of Zeng Cuo An Village military fortress gradually lost.
In the early 1990s, people in Zeng Cuo An Village liked to talk about the confrontation between War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the two sides. After the Japanese came ashore from Wu Tong, they massacred Zeng CuO 'an village, which is still an indelible painful memory in the hearts of the old people. However, the story of the cross-strait confrontation period seems somewhat meaningless: farmers are working at the seaside when a bomb suddenly flies over and stops at their feet. Fortunately, they escaped, but if they were unlucky, they would "die heroically." Although bizarre, it is true from the population of Zeng Cuo An Village village.
The anecdote of Zeng Cuo An Village Village is by no means heavy. 1929 Zeng Cuo An Village village airport ushered in the landing of Chen Wenlin, the first pilot in China who flew over Eurasia alone. Chen Wenlin's "Xiamen" plane took off from London, passing through more than a dozen countries in Europe and Asia, with a journey of10.5 million kilometers, and arrived in Xiamen in May 12. At that time, this incident became a hot topic in domestic and foreign media, not to mention that the villagers in Zeng Cuo An Village Village witnessed this historical moment with their own eyes.
Sighing that the years are like songs and the past is like smoke, everything here is undergoing profound changes. Nowadays, Zeng Cuo An Village Village is included in the scope of urban renewal, and it is planned to become a cultural, educational, convalescent, tourism and residential area along the southeast coast of Xiamen, with the construction of resettlement houses, district municipal roads, public facilities and centralized greening landscape. The natural village year of Zeng Cuo An Village Village can only be remembered. Walking in Zeng Cuo An Village Village, you can see the traces left by overseas Chinese. Architecture is the most intuitive display. At that time, overseas Chinese built a large number of red brick ancient buildings and southern-style "Fanzilou", which are still preserved today. The larger residential complex even combines two architectural styles: the first two "falling" roofs of ancient buildings are saddle ridges or dovetail ridges, and the last "falling" is a "Fanzilou" with Nanyang flavor. Nowadays, these overseas Chinese houses are lived and managed by their descendants or relatives. Just like the old buildings in Gulangyu Island, they are declining step by step.
In addition to buildings, the scattered building components on the roadside remind you of the influence of overseas Chinese economy on this natural village, such as the broken dragon column, the iron flower from Luzon, and the ceramic tiles produced in Taiwan Province Province during the Japanese occupation.
The most famous overseas Chinese in the village is Mr. Zeng Guoban. As we all know, Mr. Zeng Guoban and his younger brother Zeng Guocong invested in the construction of Xiamen Siming Cinema at 1927. However, as a far-sighted investor, his contribution to Xiamen does not stop there.
As early as the1920s, Zeng Guoban invested in the island road at that time (a rural road from Zengcuoan village to Zhenbeiguan, which has been changed due to urban construction), and jointly invested in the sea transportation from Xiamen to Tongan in the 1930s and 1940s. After the reform and opening up, this overseas Chinese old man. Although most of his industries in Zeng Cuo An Village Village have already been destroyed by Japanese invaders, he once again expressed his intention to entrust his descendants to invest in his hometown in the Philippines. Unfortunately, contrary to expectations, he died soon, and all sole proprietorships, joint ventures and cooperation vanished.
A stone tablet on the roadside in the village still records his deeds.
War relics also fully show the blood relationship between overseas Chinese and Zeng CuO 'an village. The old man in the village said that the better houses in the village were burned by Japanese devils during the Anti-Japanese War, and Xiaoyanglou was the first to bear the brunt. The old people speculated that the Japanese set fire to the "Fanzilou" to vent their anger at overseas Chinese in southern Fujian.
Later, due to various reasons, a special class-Minnan overseas Chinese gradually faded out of this natural village. According to incomplete statistics, there are 325 homestays in Li * * *, an alley in Zeng Cuo An Village Village Fifth Street 18 Lane. It's like a maze here When new tourists come here, they are often confused. No matter how the phone tells the way, the road idiot still can't find the north and ask for directions unclear. Finally, the shopkeeper and the guys in the shop had to go out to meet them. A large part of the enthusiasm of the innkeeper in Zeng Cuo An Village Village may be reflected here. He went out to meet the guests from afar, and the feeling of being at home made the tourists feel a snot and a tear.
Tracing back to the source of Zeng Cuo An Village Village Inn, we have to reread the history of overseas Chinese in Zeng Cuo An Village Village. Walking in Zeng Cuo An Village Village, you will see many ancient red brick buildings and well-preserved Nanyang style fan buildings. Residential buildings of a certain scale often combine two architectural styles: the first two roofs of ancient buildings are saddle ridges or dovetail ridges, and the last one is Fanzilou with Nanyang flavor.
Nowadays, most of these overseas Chinese houses are used for business except a small part of them are inhabited by overseas Chinese descendants or relatives. The overseas Chinese culture once carried is being reborn in the form of family hotels, following the old road of Gulangyu old buildings. So in my opinion, these inns have not declined as some experts say. A special class-overseas Chinese in southern Fujian gradually faded out of this natural village, and a new literary and art group and tourism group were very active in this village.
According to Zeng CuO 'an Village, there are always inns with different styles along the street and at the corner, with five streets and eighteen lanes, and various decorations: many new buildings are blue, Fanzi Building is generally orange or keeps quaint colors, and ancient buildings in southern Fujian are all red; Some graffiti on a large scale, some imitate European towns and hang potted flowers on the walls. This tone is really like that, as if the author is really walking in a small town in Amsterdam; Everywhere I went, I saw that most of the inns had courtyards, some walked with Hawaiian style, rocking chairs, surfing skateboards and swimming rings hung under rattan, and wooden chairs were scattered under sun umbrellas. Some people also make artificial beaches and cobblestone walkways in the courtyard, which is full of seaside fun; Others are in line with the positioning of fishing villages. Pulling a broken boat in the yard shows that we are descendants of fishermen. This is the fishing village culture. However, if the boss can really take the tenant out fishing, I will admire the depth and inheritance of your business philosophy.
The moon and stars hang in Zeng Cuo An Village village, and the lights make the whole village black and white, making it more enchanting and charming. At the end of the alley, how many restless youths are hidden in the deepest part of the night. I really like Zeng Cuo An Village Village at night. Self-help tours, walking trails and staying in inns are all beautiful.
