The Jiang Family Hakka Walled Village

　　    The Jiang Family Hakka Walled Village is located in Liantang Town, Babu District, Hezhou. It is one of the best-preserved, largest, and oldest ancient architectural complexes in China. Built during the Daoguang era of the Qing Dynasty, the entire walled village covers an area of over 30 acres and consists of two sections—north and south—situated 300 meters apart. The village is enclosed by 3-meter-high walls that separate it from the outside world. The houses, halls, and courtyards are laid out in a well-organized and interconnecting fashion. The eaves, windbreak boards, corridors, and beams are adorned with intricate carvings of dragons and phoenixes, giving the structure a magnificent and resplendent appearance. It is a quintessential crystallization of Hakka architectural and cultural artistry.
