Features: On a clear and pleasant morning 700 years ago, the sound of horse hooves echoed on the cobblestone ancient road. A young man from the He family, leaving the deep courtyards of Wuyi County, moved to a small mountain-encircled village about 10 kilometers away. His arrival gradually transformed this place into a secluded, cave-like residence for the noble He family. This beautiful small village is Guodong. Today, Guodong is renowned as the "Fengshui Village of Jiangnan." Together with 11 other ancient villages such as Xidi and Hongcun in Anhui Province and Liukeng in Jiangxi Province, it was officially announced by the state as the first batch of "Chinese Historical and Cultural Villages." This book takes us into the ancient and mystical Guodong, as if into the depths of mysterious history. With its rich illustrations and text, it holds reference value for tourism enthusiasts, tour guides, and those researching local humanistic and historical culture.
