Twin Wells Reflecting the Moon
An ancient well in Xiaqi Village, built in the late Tang Dynasty. The well walls and platform were meticulously crafted with scientific architectural design. There are two wells of different sizes—one deep and one shallow. The smaller well has shallow water, used for washing items and cleaning water buckets; the larger well holds deep water for drinking. The smaller well is for washing, while the larger well offers clear, cool, and sweet-tasting water. After a thousand years, it still provides water for over six hundred villagers. The name of the wells comes from Li Bai’s poetic line “I raise my cup to invite the moon; facing my shadow we’re three.” On moonlit nights, each of the two wells reflects a “jade disk,” hence the name “Twin Wells Reflecting the Moon.”
