Gaoqian Ancient Village
The Gaoqian Ancient Residential Area is located in Baota Town, Xianju County, Zhejiang Province. It is the Wu family's settlement. The existing residential complexes were built during the Ming and Qing dynasties. The architectural style is modeled after the style of the Taihe Hall, featuring a "three openings and nine halls" layout. This architectural complex was first constructed in the Yuan Dynasty. More than ten intact quadrangle courtyards remain, featuring simple exteriors, sturdy frameworks, and exquisite decorative techniques that incorporate stone carvings, wood carvings, and brick carvings, covering themes such as animals, flowers, and historical figures. The Wu family moved to this place in the fifth century (during the Liang Dynasty), and during the Song and Ming dynasties, historical figures such as Wu Fu, Wu Jian, and Wu Shihai emerged. The residential area is crisscrossed with alleys, and the courtyards feature white walls and grey tiles. It blends well with the surrounding landscape and corresponds to the feng shui layout of the Seven-Star Pond and the Moon Deer River, which align with celestial phenomena. Most of the existing buildings were finalized during the Qianlong to Xianfeng periods of the Qing Dynasty, preserving the inscriptions on the gateposts of the Confucian and scholarly culture and the traditional quadrangle courtyard layout. The villagers continue to practice customs such as spinning and making straw sandals. Some stone-paved halls and courtyards use the technique of inlaying pebbles and have been listed as an intangible cultural heritage of Zhejiang Province. The architectural complex is now a free-admission scenic area and still maintains its original ecological living form.
