Photos of Yangjiatang Village

Yangjiatang Village is located in Sandu Township, and the whole village faces east to west. According to records, the village was built around 1655 and has a history of more than 350 years. In the 12th year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty, Song Xiankun settled in Yangjiatang. As for the origin of the village name, Songyang County gazetteer says: Because there are three crossed camphor trees in the village, it was called Zhangjiaotang earlier, and later changed to Yangjiatang. The income of the villagers in Yangjiatang Village is mainly from growing tea, fruit and going out to work. The village is an ancient cultural village with a long history, with a beautiful environment and 8 ancient dwellings well preserved. Walking into Yangjiatang, the most striking thing is the row upon row of ancient buildings in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty and the horse-headed wall facing each other. Of course, it also includes those beautifully carved beams and painted buildings, door and window carvings and so on. The wall culture of Yangjiatang is very rich, which truly reflects a kind of life belief and artistic pursuit of the people at that time.
