Henan itself is a very famous city and the birthplace of Chinese civilization. There are many magical landscapes in this land, and the pit field in Shanzhou District, Sanmenxia City, Henan Province is one of them. Many friends who have been there know that it is different. The ancient villages and towns we have seen are all built by mountains or basins, but the strangest thing here is that the villagers' houses are all built underground.
Pit courtyard, also known as patio courtyard, is one of the cave dwelling ways of the ancients, and now it only exists here. It is said that it has a history of more than 4,000 years, and the whole village was built in a pit 6-7 meters deep. Moreover, it is not as shabby and shabby as other places, and it is particularly neat just from the appearance. On the flat ground, there are all kinds of square mouths, large and small, which look like huge pits from a distance.
This place was discovered by a foreigner. In 1930s, German pilots flew over it and saw this spectacular scene, which shocked him very much. Then they took a camera and took this spectacular scene to make this place known to people. Moreover, the famous architect described this place in the book "Architecture without Architects". It seems that China was here many years ago? Architectural madman? Yes!
Now it has been developed into a famous scenic spot. You can walk on the top of the field. Looking up and down, you can see a cave-like house with a huge yard, all paved with blue-gray bricks. Sometimes you can see someone playing mahjong in the yard, completely undisturbed by tourists.
There are almost nine families in this square pit, and there is a huge door on one side leading to other places. There are almost more than 100 small courtyards like this, most of which are connected together. Now it has been bought by the developer and repaired, and now you can see its whole picture. And the most surprising thing is that there is a huge square in it, which is also built underground, just like a huge palace, which looks very spectacular.
Of course, this place is not fully developed, and there are still some old people living here. If you want to experience the original pit, these places are good choices. Many pit yards have been developed into scenic spots for everyone to live in, as well as various local foods, which are simply cool to the extreme. If you want to go here, you only need to pay the ticket to 60 yuan, but if you want to buy things in it, you still need to pay.
This building complex with a history of more than 4,000 years has not collapsed until now. I really sigh the wisdom of the ancients. Although it has been developed, many places still retain its original appearance to a great extent, so everyone should cherish it when watching it. Ok, I'll stop talking to you today, and welcome your comments!
