About Cangpo Old Village
Set below Bijiashan in the Nanxi River landscape, the village links farming with scholarship through its layout. A straight stone-paved main street represents a brush, long stones stand for ink sticks, two lotus ponds serve as inkstones, and the roughly rectangular enclosure suggests a sheet of paper. The timber Ximen gateway and Li ancestral hall add architectural detail to this expression of the community's educational and family ideals.
What to look for
- The straight main street aligned towards Bijiashan.
- The lotus ponds and long stones of the Four Treasures layout.
- The timber Ximen gateway and Li ancestral hall.
