Grand xie cun.

Daxie Village is located in the deep mountain valley of Liangjiazhai Township, Yuxian County. This is an ancient and quiet village with a history of 1500 years. It is the oldest existing village in Yuxian county so far.

This small village built on the mountain was once inaccessible to outsiders because of the rugged roads. In recent years, Daxie Village was discovered by accident, which amazed the world with its peculiar architectural style and was called "Potala Palace in the depths of the mountains" by tourists.

Hougougu village

Hougou Ancient Village is located in Dongzhao Township, Yuci District, bordering Shouyang County. The highest elevation is 974 meters, the lowest elevation is 907 meters, and the relative height difference is 67 meters, forming a unique landform of gully, slope, wall and beach in Hougou Village.

Hougou Ancient Village condenses the traditional classics of farming civilization on the Loess Plateau and preserves the self-sufficient traditional civilization of the Han nationality in northern China. Residential architecture is a typical cave dwelling on the Loess Plateau, which is characterized by its emergence with cliffs, changes with shapes, overlapping kiln layers, irregularity and uniqueness.

Lijiashan village

Lijiashan Village is located about 3 kilometers south of Qikou Town, Linxian County, hidden in the depths of the mountains, ethereal and elegant.

When the famous painter Wu Guanzhong visited Lijiashan in 1989 10, he marveled that it looked like a "Han tomb". He said: From the outside, it looks like a desolate "Han Tomb". Once inside, it is a very old and exquisite cave. The ancient village is relatively closed, like an isolated peach blossom garden.

Zhandi village

Bati Village is located in Sitou Township, Pingshun County, hidden in the depths of Taihang Mountain. The village is surrounded by mountains and waters, and it is named after being surrounded by tall and steep mountains.

The average height of Bati village from the village to the top of the cliff is 300 meters. Villagers have lived at the bottom of a "big well" for generations. They cultivate the land and thrive. This isolated place has been around for hundreds of years.

Tianyagou village

Xiyagou Village is located at the junction of Shanxi and Henan provinces in the southeast of lingchuan county, where the ravine is deep and the surrounding terrain is steep and complicated. Since ancient times, people in the valley have been almost isolated from the outside world, just like a paradise.

In the 1960s, Xiyagou people were unwilling to block and declared war on the mountains. After 30 years of unremitting efforts, they finally dug a zigzag road with a length of 7.5 kilometers on the cliff, creating a miracle on earth and becoming a rare human landscape, which is well-known throughout the country.
