Along the Longchuan Creek lie rows of homes facing water with hills in back, which is typical of ancient Huizhou-style village complexes.
Highways in Jixi are well-developed and provide convenient access to the Longchuan Scenic Area, which is located just 12 kilometers away from the Jixi exit on the Jixi-Yellow Mountain Highway. Additionally, the Jixi-Yellow Mountain Highway, Anhui-Hangzhou Highway and Hefei- Tongling-Yellow Mountain Highway are interconnected.
Longchuan is a picturesque village in southwestern Anhui province. Nestled between Feng and Chaohu Mountains, the 1600-year-old village enjoys a pastoral setting that recalls an ancient Chinese landscape painting. Longchuan's rows of traditional Hui-style homes built along deep, narrow alleys complete the feeling of a China long forgotten.
Hu Zongxian (1512-1565), also known as Ruzhen or Meilin, was a celebrated military officer and senior government official.
This ancient hall, which spans a total area of 1,564 square meters, was constructed 1,600 years ago. Since, it has undergone several renovations, first during the reign of Ming Dynasty emperor Jiajing (1521-1567) and again in 1898 at the end of the Qing Dynasty(1636-1919).
Lying at the heart of Longchuan Village, the Yishi Minister Arch, built in 1562, is a masterpiece of Hui-style stone carving.
