Introduction

Stone Village, originally named "Yu Family Village", is commonly known as Stone Village due to the abundance of stones. According to legend, the villagers of Yu Family Village are descendants of the Ming Dynasty official Yu Qian. After Yu Qian was wrongfully killed, his relatives fled to this place and lived in seclusion in the deep mountains. As a result, the ancient village remains intact, with well-preserved Ming and Qing Dynasty architecture. Most of the houses follow the ancient Ming and Qing architectural style, but each has its own unique features. Every household in the village has trees such as pomegranates planted in their courtyards, as well as a variety of peculiar stones. The most representative one is a stone courtyard built during the Tianqi period of the Ming Dynasty. This courtyard covers an area of 2 acres and has over 100 rooms, presenting a magnificent sight. Stone Village is located deep in the mountains of Jingxing, 15 kilometers away from Jingxing. The village is known for its various stone buildings. The whole village has more than 4,000 stone houses, over 3,700 meters of stone-paved streets, more than 200 stone tablets, and over 1,000 stone wells, kilns, and ponds. Stone houses, stone courtyards, stone towers, stone mills, stone tables and stools, stone bridges, and stone railings can be seen everywhere, which is remarkable.
