Introduction

Anyi Ancient Village, located in Jiangxi Province, is composed of three natural villages: Luotian, Shuinan, and Jingtai, arranged in a triangular distribution. These three villages all have a history of more than a thousand years and have a deep cultural heritage with well-preserved Ming and Qing architectural complexes. With its characteristics of "most mysterious, most rural, most ancient charm, and most countryside," Anyi Ancient Village is listed as one of the 15 best ecological tourist attractions in Jiangxi Province. Jingtai Village was built in the first year of Wude in the Tang Dynasty (618 AD). The founder was the brothers Liu Zongxu and Liu Zongsu from Xuzhou. Their father was Liu Guangde, prefect of Chen State during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, who moved here to avoid the chaos. In the Ming Dynasty, the Li family of Wuning was ordered to move here by the emperor, and the two clans came into contact, making Jingtai Village with a long history and many ancient relics, an ideal location for film shoots. Shuinan Village was built by Huang Yineng, the 15th generation descendant of Kechang Gong, who moved from Luotian Village. The village was founded in the seventh year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1374 AD). After experiencing more than 630 years of wind and rain, it preserves more than 20 Ming and Qing buildings. Shuinan Village is famous for its exquisite house carvings and numerous preserved traditional items. Luotian Ancient Village is a large village with over 2,000 people. Since the first year of Guangming in the Tang Dynasty (880 AD), it has had a history of more than 1,120 years. The founder of the village was Huang Kechang from Qizhou, Hubei Province. He came here to escape war and built the village by piling up stones, cultivating and planting, and establishing the village, becoming one of the origins of the Huang clan and making the Huang clan in Jiangxi Province an important lineage.
