宏村简介

宏村，始建于南宋绍兴年间（公元1131—1162年），位于安徽省黄山西南麓的“桃花源里人家”——黟县东北部，古取宏广发达之意称为弘村，清乾隆年间改为宏村，距今约有900年的历史，原为汪姓聚居之地。整个村落采用仿生学的“牛”形布局，以雷岗山为牛头，村口的两株古树为牛角，月沼为牛胃，南湖为牛肚，蜿蜒的水圳为牛肠，民居建筑为牛身，四座古桥为牛脚，称作“山为牛头树为角，桥为四蹄屋为身”，形状惟妙惟肖，就像一头悠闲的水牛静卧在青山绿水之中。村中仍完好保存着明清时代徽派民居140余幢，粉墙青瓦与四周山色倒映湖中，人、古建筑与大自然融为一体，宛如一幅徐徐展开的山水画卷，被誉为“中国画里的乡村”。

Hong Village

Built around 1131-1162 AD on the southwestern side of Huangshan Mountain, Hong Village used to be the residing community of Wang family. The village adopted the bionic structure of an crouching bull, with Leigang Mountain as its head, two old trees at the village entrance as its horns, the Moon Pond and the Southern Lake forming its stomach, the winding water ditches as its intestines, the bridges as its hooves and houses as its body. More than 140 Huizhou folk houses remain well-preserved. For its integrating nature and culture, Hong Village has been called “the town in a landscape painting”.
