Daqitou Ancient Village (the first village in Guangdong)-Suitable for fans of history and architecture
With the rapid development of modern civilization, skyscrapers are row upon row, but it is still the same as it was hundreds of years ago, with blue walls and gray tiles, as if it had crossed time and space. This private house complex, which was built by Zheng Shaozhong, the prefect of Guangdong Navy in the Qing Dynasty, was actually funded by Empress Dowager Cixi, which was a "mighty emperor" at that time. It integrates residential houses, ancestral temples, family temples, mansions and pagodas, and has become a national historical and cultural village because of its complete and large-scale ancient buildings. The "pot-ear" roof design makes it unique. Ancestral temples and family temples are essential functional buildings in ancient rural areas of Guangdong, and ancestral temple culture is a traditional culture centered on ancestral temples. By offering sacrifices to ancestors and taking the continuation of consanguinity with the same surname as the link, the whole family members are linked and the cohesion within the clan is formed. In addition to history and culture, the architectural design of the ancient village is also a highlight. Can you imagine that the ancient village hundreds of years ago had the functions of anti-theft, fire prevention and wind prevention? It is said that many people who go for the first time seem to have entered a maze. After all, the ancient village, which covers an area of 52, square meters, is full of "institutions", so it is difficult not to get lost.

Second stop? Cantonese Opera Museum
There are Peking Opera in the north and Cantonese Opera in the south. As the birthplace of Cantonese Opera, you can fully understand the culture of Cantonese Opera here. You can go back to the special article "The Past of Red Bean (Cantonese Opera) in South China" and "Looking forward to the Present of Cantonese Opera"
The original building belongs to the Huanggong Temple in Zhaoxiang, which is magnificent and typical of ancestral hall architecture. The area of more than 2, square meters shows the origin, evolution and present situation of Cantonese opera with objects, words and images, covering scripts, costumes, records and other categories. Many cultural relics in the collection are also highlights, such as Cantonese opera masks and posters.
the third stop? The ancestral temple museum &; Huang Feihong Memorial Hall
The ancestral temple is known as the "Palace of Oriental Folk Art". It is a combination of architectural art and traditional culture. It is not only a building complex with Lingnan characteristics, but also a grand view garden with rich cultures. In terms of architectural decoration, it shows the characteristics of mahogany carving in Chancheng, as well as sculptures with opera stories as the theme. In folk culture, the collection of cultural relics shows Taoism, martial arts and Foshan folk art. Taoism is a local religion in China, but its popularity is not as good as that of foreign Buddhism. When you come to the ancestral temple, why don't you worship Zhenwu Xuantian God? Kung Fu fans have visited the IP Man Memorial Hall in the South China Sea. If they are not satisfied, come to the Huang Feihong Memorial Hall here again. This memorial hall, which gathers 38, Huang Feihong disciples from all over the world to seek their roots and worship their ancestors, has a martial arts performance hall, where you can watch the martial arts performances of Huang Feihong disciples live, which is quite shocking. There are as many as 11 movies about Huang Feihong. It's hard to know him! Huang Feihong's real photos can only be seen here. Even "Bao Zhilin" has a replica, and Feihong Cinema keeps playing movie videos, which won't disappoint movie fans. There are many scenes of lion dance in Huang Feihong's films, and there is a Lingnan lion dance performance every day in the museum. It is said that the lion dance team is composed of his descendants.

continues its southbound journey to Shunde, the core area connecting Guangzhou and Foshan, which has developed commerce and trade since ancient times, and is the base camp of Shunde cuisine, one of the three major Cantonese cuisines, and even the "food capital of the world". You can go back to the special article "Shunde Food Culture-the Soul of Cantonese Cuisine in Guangfu"
What is the first stop of Qinghui Garden?
It belongs to the four famous gardens in Lingnan together with the Liangyuan Garden in Chancheng, which is suitable for fans of gardens and traditional calligraphy and painting. You can go back to the special article "Lingnan Garden is Different" and "Lingnan Famous Garden and Mo Bao Danqing"
There are many excellent gardens left in Ming and Qing Dynasties, especially Jiangnan Garden, represented by Humble Administrator's Garden. Qinghui Garden is characterized by the integration of Lingnan architecture and Jiangnan gardens. It not only has the characteristics of paying attention to site selection and foundation in Lingnan ancient buildings, but also has the elegance and aura of Jiangnan garden art. The * * * nature of traditional gardens in China is also highlighted here, and structural techniques such as seeing the big in the small, combining the virtual with the real, and setting up gardens in the gardens can be seen everywhere.
this private garden, built more than 4 years ago, was originally the residence of the local champion in the Ming dynasty, and later it became the asset of local scholars in the Qing dynasty. The "slowness" in China's traditional garden art is also reflected incisively and vividly here in Qinghui Garden, showing the characteristics of "Qu" and "Zang" from the entrance. After a long walk, I came to the front of Qinghui Garden. The plaque hanging in the lobby was written by Li Zhaoluo, a calligrapher in the Qing Dynasty.
Tickets: 15 yuan
The second stop, Bijiang Jinlou
China has always had a book collection culture, and private book collections are all over the place, represented by Tianyi Pavilion in Zhejiang. Bijiang in Shunde has a good reading atmosphere since ancient times. This golden building was originally a library, and it was named because it was mostly inlaid with gold foil, which was a symbol of status at that time. It is said that Dai Peiqiong, the goddaughter of Empress Dowager Cixi and the daughter of a famous official in the late Qing Dynasty, married into Bijiang, and the Su family specially gilded the library for wedding purposes, so there was a popular story of "Golden House hides charming". In addition, the Golden Tower is also the location of the film "The Grand Master". Unfortunately, in recent years, due to limited funds and suffering from repairs, the damage of the Golden Building is serious.
The resplendence and romantic love story of Sujia in Bijiang attracted many people. In fact, the built-in wood carving technology is also a major attraction. The elegant collection on the second floor is the essence of the Golden Tower. Looking around, I found that the world was carved in such a square place as doors and windows, and the exquisite skills of craftsmen made the posture of flowers, birds, fish and insects lifelike. Finally, I have to see the giant bronze wall sculpture "Twenty-four Poems on Bijiang River", which is known as the "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival" of Bijiang River, and it records the human and natural landscape of Bijiang River more than 1 years ago.
Of course, there are more historical sites in Foshan than those mentioned in the article. The ancient city of Nanyue is worth stopping to savor the taste of traditional culture, instead of punching out, which is worthy of the gift of history.
