Xufumafu, Chaozhou

The original form of "luxury house style"

Xu Fuma House was built from Song Dynasty to Pingnian until four years ago. It has a history of more than 940 years. Although it has been built several times, it still preserves the basic layout of buildings in the Song Dynasty and is considered to be the original type of existing "luxury-style" houses in Chaoshan, Guangdong.

According to the regulations of Kang Hua, it faces south, and its structure is rigorous and meticulous. This is a quadrangle. There are three main buildings, five rooms, a holding hall in the front seat and a protective cover in the middle hall, resulting in the layout of single hall, single house and single terrace. Between the first entrance and the third entrance, a corridor was built, and the building behind it spanned the whole house. The decorative design techniques of the whole group of ancient buildings are simple and realistic, with the traditional characteristics of residential buildings in Song Dynasty. It is a rare Song Dynasty building in Lingnan, Guangdong and even the whole country.

Chaozhou has a slight Huanggong Temple.

Chaozhou woodcarving temple

To appreciate the exquisite engineering processing technology and decorative style of ancient buildings in Chaoshan, Guangdong, Huanggong Temple should be the first choice. Built in 1887, facing south, it is a dual ancestral temple with a total area of only 550 square meters.

Huanggong Temple is a well-deserved temple of Chaozhou woodcarving plastic arts. The sides of Liang Fang are decorated with auspicious animals with different images, such as dragons, phoenixes and lions. The legends of mir and the folklore of China operas, such as "Tongquetai", "Zhangyu Boiling the Sea" and "Shuiman Jinshan Temple", are the main themes of wood carving decoration. The decorative design of this kind of wood carving ornaments adopts different techniques, such as stone carving, re-carving, embossed pattern and hollow carving, which improves the limitation of time and space. The brand image mainly shows various and complicated contents. In the design color, three artistic techniques, red paint with gold, five mining with gold and this melanin sculpture, are fully used to make the building light and heavy, so it is known as "Chaozhou Woodcarving No.1".

Chaoan Congxi Temple

The essence of stone carving technology is amazing.

When we taste the ancient buildings in Chaoshan, Guangdong, we usually mention an old saying: "One Shi Niu kills three masters", and this historical allusion comes from Congxi Gongci, which has a history of 1.30 years. Known as the top plastic arts classic in Chaoshan stone carving crafts in Guangdong, it has the reputation of "the quintessence of folk customs".

Xigong Temple was built in the 9th year of Tongzhi in Qing Dynasty (1870). It is one of the ancestral temples built by Chen Jiannian, a foreign rich man living in Singapore, who came to his hometown from afar. At the first entrance of the temple, a pair of exquisite stone lions are arranged on the edge of the building, and the steel roof truss of the Shipai Building is a stone carving handicraft carved on both sides. The most amazing thing is the four stone carving crafts embedded in the cliff of Shipailou. Each of these four stone carving crafts takes the local agriculture, industry and commerce, fishing and firewood cultivation, flowers and plants as the theme, and each stone carving makes good use of the tortuous composition method to concentrate people, events and things in different periods on the same interface, concentrating the story, mainly showing a dramatic moment.

Shantou Chenghai Chencifu Former Residence

Combination of Chinese and Western, the first overseas resident in Chaoshan, Guangdong Province

Among the traditional ancient buildings in Chaoshan, Guangdong, "Ma Xu Trailer" is undoubtedly the most standard, and its business scale is also the largest. From the Sanjin living room and ancestral hall on the rear axle to the "Sijin" courtyards on both sides, the four flower lanes on both sides support this luxurious villa like four horses, so it is called "Ma Xu Trailer". Now in Chaoshan, Guangdong, the most symbolic place is probably the former residence of Chen Cifu. It is composed of four major buildings: Di, Shan Mansion, Li and Sanlu Bookstore. 506 halls are connected and patchwork, which is known as "Guo Rongfu in the south of the Yangtze River".

No matter under the eaves of the living room, the corners of the back wall, doors and windows, there are many exquisite Chaozhou gold lacquer wood carvings, stone carving crafts, gray porcelain inlays, or "lotus rat red ti" or "guava birds". Traditional painting also contains many European patterns and design styles. As for the commonly used laminated glass and floor tiles, I heard that most of them are imported from Spain and Italy. There are not only patterns of flowers, birds, fish and insects, but also graphics. On the main beam of Shizhu County in the corridor, even the English letters are decorated in the lines. The combination of Chinese and western is necessary.

Chaoyang Ming' anli

The abbot's temple has unique letters.

Ming 'anli was built at 200 1 10, covering an area of 20,000 square meters. It was donated by China Hongkong entrepreneur Wu and his wife.

The passage leading to Ming 'anli is a typical stone arch building with a sunken abdomen. The roof of the building is decorated with porcelain, like the opening words of the tour guide's words, which tells the engineering architectural characteristics and cultural heritage of Chaoshan residential buildings in Ming 'an. Walking into the yard, there is a huge city square in the middle, with ponds and flower beds called "Douchi", a wooden plank road screen on the right and a row of five rows of ancient buildings called "Kowloon Tuzhu" on the left. Flat-topped gray wooden house with tile structure, the eaves are decorated with porcelain, and the middle of the truss is decorated with gold lacquer wood carving and watercolor painting. In addition, there are many traditional folk handicrafts, such as clay powder painting and stone carving. During your stay, it's like walking into a temple where folk handicrafts meet in Chaoshan, Guangdong. It's beautiful.
