Hakkas Yongding, a narrowing of the city

It is said that in the 1960s and 1970s of the last century, the United States to China spy satellite reconnaissance photographs, were surprised to find in the mountains of China's Fujian Province, the distribution of many large-scale construction of the unknown, or a round or square, the analysis is that the "missile launch Base, "China's military strength can not be. Until the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States, the United States know that the so-called "missile base" is actually typical Hakka houses - Earthen. Smile after listening to a joke of the matter, but the germination Earthen I'd like to go check it out first thought. Shigu Shanghai to escape the cold and wet, the choice of winter travel to Fujian is a good idea, Earthen Yongding, of course, is the destination of the trip. Hidden between the green mountains and blue waters Zhangping the first train, transfer to Longyan, and then jumped onto the bus bound for Longyan in the pit lake folk culture village of Pakistan. The process sounds complicated, but the transfer time and place convenient to be able to link, so to earth storied building is also the way it is not difficult. Longyan city car out to the countryside scenery slowly began to get better, here is a typical hilly areas, particularly enchanting green mountains and blue waters under the sun, and hide in the Earthen also continue to appear in front of me. Earthen talking about, can not fail to mention the construction of earth storied building - Hakka. They used to be along the Central Plains Han-min, as a result of war, famine and other reasons was forced across the border, after thousands of miles around, in the three provinces of Fujian and Guangdong-Jiangxi border region to form the Department of Hakka people. Hakka people are united and went, the name of the family must live together. As the Hakka people are living in remote mountainous areas in the mountains or dense forests, not only was the lack of construction materials, jackals, noisy thieves, together with the local people's fear of harassment, such as Hakka Earthen like it to create a "resist" Castle-residential construction. In Fujian, at Earthen square and round earth storied Earthen are relatively rare, round floor. Shanghai to spend the cast railing In the end I was able to visit the most famous folk culture village of vibration into earth storied floor, I feel intuitive, "Earthen is a narrowing of the city, to enlarge the air," the phrase to describe very image. Tuyangjiehe vibration of the floor, as though history is not long, but it is the most magnificent round Yongding floor. It has both inside and outside the ring with a diameter of 48 meters, tall and strong outer four floors of a foreign non-windows on the second floor for foreign defense, if adequate reserves, the building can not go more than half a year; and the inner ring is a fake Chudo western-style decoration of the hall, bright and spacious, is said to cast flowers on the second floor railing or shipped from Shanghai at the time of it. I get to visit the Lin family's uncle, not without pride for the eight-character-like fingers stretched out, said: "At that time, my grandfather, but spent only 80,000 Koyo set up the house." Earthen like the oldest palace Lake pit as a folk culture village development sites, including the village of Shi Yuzuo floor, a round, large and small, each with characteristics. If the diameter of the smallest known or floor, the local people as saying the volume of rice the size of fight, so than Yu. The oldest is Kui-earth storied building, a total of three, as if style palace, the ancestors of the original owner of the building had been on the official examination. Fu Yu House, Mountain Water, as much as seven, the momentum to force people who live here may have been a prominent figure. Several have been on the most dilapidated, dilapidated wooden planks and thick with dust came downstairs radio pop Huangrugeshi away. Earthen village residents have so far inside, but a growing number of small, more and more young people move out to live, or go directly to work in coastal cities. However, to protect the value of the earth storied building, to reduce the population also is perhaps a good thing. Earthen be the largest live more than 600 people From the folk culture village of a dozen or so miles around, there are many scenic spots worth visiting earth storied building, public transport is not very convenient, tourists often playing the "Mount" to. I leave big vibration into the floor, and ride a motorcycle to King floor, known as a round of the Chaintech floor. 48 Dynasty Emperor Kangxi (1709), Chaintech floor, where a total of outside the Fourth Ring, ring has a diameter of 80 meters, 400 meters close to the outer ring Zou Yiquan. During the height of the population, Chaintech building more than 600 people lived there, really incredible, living in the same building of two people may not have known all their lives. Chaintech children in the building under the guidance of the floor along the path I climbed up a viewing platform on a hill overlooking the foot of the mountain, round floor, King panoramic view, distant eyes, a circle on the floor Like mushroom Yamano mosaic, and other interesting.
