Liyuan makes ordinary people feel that poverty has limited their imagination. 100 years ago, it was so exquisite and beautiful, and the mansion of the Chinese and Western combinations was simply breathtaking. My favorite building is the Yupei Villa, very chic, the scenery from all angles is different, there is also Xie Weili's early death of the second lady handwritten couplet, that line of writing is really beautiful, the generation of talented women, unfortunately difficult to give birth at 19 years old died. The 4-story windows in the standing building are impressive, with windows, screens, fences, and iron plates, which are simply solid and functional. The style of Liyuan and Self-Lili Village is very different. This is a family manor and cannot be seen for an hour and a half. The parking fee is 10 yuan.

The Zili Village Diaolou Group is the core area of ​​the World Cultural Heritage - Kaiping Diaolou, and is an important part of it. It has beautiful scenery, numerous Diaolou buildings, and is well maintained and preserved. Although it has a vicissitudes of history, it is very impressive and worth a visit.

There are six Biye and one tower in the park, and the two most gorgeous buildings in the park are concentrated in Liwen and Li Li. There are also Liyuan archway, big archway, four bridge pavilions, Shimi Roman-style building Bird's Nest, and Tonghua building Huateng Pavilion.

Compared with the other two, the fame is not that big, but because of this, there are fewer people. There are several buildings to go up, the scenery upstairs is better, and the feeling of seeing the mountains is small. It should be cool in summer, it is all bamboo forests. The parking lot is large and very convenient. It feels good to sketch

The most beautiful "First Building in Kaiping" recognized by the public among the Kaiping Diaolou is the "Rui Shi Building" in the Jinjiangli Scenic Area. It is said that it concentrates more than eight architectural styles from all over the world, even Islamic styles. No wonder the local government uses it as a promotional logo. Although Jinjiangli is far away and the shuttle bus is not there, it is still convenient to take Didi. The ticket is 50 yuan, and you can buy a package ticket online. There are three Diaolou in the village, located at the northernmost end of the village, lined up in a row. You can visit the "Jinjiang Building" and "Shengfeng Building" with a ticket. The "Rui Shi Building" that I want to see the most is not entrusted to the government, and they charge an additional fee (20 yuan/person). Unfortunately, there was no one at home that day, and the iron gate was locked. Jinjiangli, the village is very beautiful and quiet. There is a big river in front, with a high river bank. There is an ancient banyan tree with a huge crown, a big pond, and a small land temple at the entrance of the village. These three things are almost standard in every village here. In addition to the watchtowers, there are dozens of neatly arranged traditional houses in the village, many of which are named "Lu" and have a very old feel.

The special thing about Zili Village is its rural scenery. There are green rice fields on the roadside, the wind brings the fragrance of rice, the village and the farmland blend harmoniously, and one or two or a gray watchtower or residential building emerge from the green waves, which is a very quiet and beautiful picture. It is worth mentioning that many movies with the background of the Republic of China were filmed here, and "Let the Bullets Fly" is one of them. Combined with the banditry in Kaiping in history, this movie is tailor-made for this small town.

Guangdong is a vast country with many interesting places, but this is the only "world intangible cultural heritage". Although it is an ancient town with centuries-old buildings and streets, it concentrates architectural design styles from all over the world. It is not old-fashioned at all, and it reflects fashion and romance everywhere. Any photo you take is a blockbuster. Early morning and evening are the best time. Not only are there few people in the scenic area, but the light is also good. You can walk slowly, look slowly, and take photos slowly. Everything is the most beautiful!

Tangkouxu Granary

走遍天下XZ
One of the "Top Ten Most Beautiful Bookstores", the "Pioneer World Granary Bookstore" in Tangkou Town, Kaiping is indeed very beautiful. It is the first free internet celebrity check-in place in Kaiping, and it deserves it. It is composed of a row of several large white granaries. It used to be a tourist attraction here, and now with the blessing of the Pioneer Bookstore, it feels more fashionable. The location is at the lively town entrance of Tangkou Town, just a few minutes' walk from "Wen Ji Yellow Eel Claypot Rice". Although there is a large parking lot next to it, there are often traffic jams at the intersection during the peak season. Each granary is connected, and the layout design inside is different. There is a spiral black staircase that is particularly photogenic. Finally, don't miss the large glass cafe on the street, it is really beautiful (to be discussed in another article).
