“Beijing is the best Choice if you want to enjoy the Imperial Palace while Qiankou is a must if you want to see the ancient Chinese residence". Mr. Shan shiyuan, a well-known expert on ancient architecture and director of Chinese Architecture study association and deputy-director of the Forbidden City Museum praises Qiankou as above.
Located in the Huizhou District, Qiankou Residence, also named Zixia Mountain Villa, is a wonderful place of China for its culture and history. Qiankou Residence centralizes 10 representative buildings of the Ming dynasty scattered in Huizhou and is known as the "Museum of Dwelling Houses of Ming in Qiankou". It has been the place where Taoqian, an established poet in the East Jin Dynasty once recited his touching verses: "Picking up the Chrysanthemum flowers in Dongli, I pleasantly see the Nanshan Mountains". Once step into the ancient village, you will find the most refined and delicate ancient houses of Ming and Qing Dynasty together with grand mansions and fancy gardens as well, which reveal the latest five hundred years old history and the life style of the local people.
