Tour BV-02: Gu shan Cun (cuandixia) village one day tour
The village located 90 kilometers/55miles away from downtown Beijing,
it is considered as a ¡°pearl¡± of the traditional village of China.
Chuan Di Xia has a rich history, first established more than 500
hundred years ago to the time of the Ming(1368-1644).Tough it
undergone the nature for dynasties, there¡¯re still many traditional
Quadrangles(typical dwellings in the village) exist in the village.
The village stands along the vital communication line, with
convenient transportation to Hebei province and Inner-Mongolia, so
the incessant stream of horses and carriages made it being a busy
place during the Ming and Qing dynasties. But, part of the village
was seriously damaged during the Japanese Occupation (1937-1945) and
the Cultural Revolution (1966-1976), the ruins are still visible
there.
After the Reform and Opening up to the rest of the world in 1978,
with the development of the railway, express way and advanced
mountainous road, the village has lost its strategic significance
and not being busy anymore. The young villagers flooded into the
city and moved out of the village. At present, there¡¯re only 14
families with more than 30 people still living here. Thus, the
village was maintained very well and froze in its history, has
become a ¡°living museum¡± in Beijing.
It's a great treasure in terms historical antique, architecture, art
and social study.
