Xinggonglin Ancient Village

Xinggonglin, adjacent to Huizhai Market, is located in the heart of the Huizhai Basin. Surrounded by mountains and water, the area boasts fertile farmland, and the Hemiao Highway runs along the edge of the village.

The village houses ancient residences in the style of Suzhou gardens, originally built in 1804 and with a history of over 200 years. Its architectural style combines a majestic and solemn palace-like structure with the architectural features of Chaoshan’s “Four-Point Gold” and “Descending Tiger,” as well as inheriting the traditions of Hakka enclosed roundhouse layouts. It also skillfully incorporates the elegant charm of Suzhou garden design. Among the most distinctive structures are the “Seven-Door Tower in a Row,” “Three Walls Linked as Pearls,” and “House of Benevolence.” The layout follows patterns such as “Four Horses Pulling a Cart” and “Nine Halls and Eighteen Wells.” Local party and government authorities, along with the village committee, have decided to raise funds through various channels to restore these buildings and develop them into tourist attractions, aiming to boost local economic development through distinctive tourism.
