Longwei Village

Longwei Village

Longwei Village is located in Xitou Township, Wuyuan County, and is also a rather ancient settlement that still retains many traditional Huizhou-style buildings. It is said to be the origin of the stone used to make "Longwei Inkstones," one of the four famous types of inkstones in China.

Longwei Village is very small—almost from one end of the village, you can see the other. The architecture here naturally features the Huizhou style—blue bricks, white walls, and horse-head walls. Behind the village flows a river with jade-green, crystal-clear water; at the foot of the mountains along the riverbank are green bamboo and trees, along with red leaves as fiery as flame. When a breeze blows, the red leaves drift down and float away on the water, forming a beautiful scene amid the shimmering light and shadows.
