Xidi and Hongcun Villages

Located in Yixian County, Xidi and Hongcun Ancient Villages were listed as World Heritage Sites by UNESCO on November 30, 2000. Xidi Village is located in the southeastern part of Yixian County and has over 300 simple, yet graceful, Ming and Qing dynasty residences, of which 124 are well preserved. The village has two main streets and about 99 lanes. All the streets and lanes are paved with cobbles or black stones. The residences, lanes and streets combine well with the hills and streams. Hongcun Village is about 11 km from the county town of Yixian County. It is built in the shape of an ox. Hundreds of ancient houses stand row by row, the best-known being Chengzhi House built by a salt merchant in the Qing Dynasty (1616-1911).
