Which district of Guangzhou is Zhou Xiao Village in?
Zhou Xiao Village, formerly known as Yingzhou, is a natural village under the jurisdiction of Huazhou Street, Haizhu District, Guangzhou, and a traditional village in China. Located in the southeast of Haizhu District, surrounded by water and shaped like an island, the village covers an area of 4.3 square kilometers.
Zhou Xiao Village began in Yuan Dynasty, and bamboo slips were moved from Xinxiang, Henan Province to Zhou Xiao Village in the early Ming Dynasty. Zhou Xiao Village retains a complete pattern of water towns and enjoys the reputation of "Zhouzhuang in the north and Yingzhou in the south". There are many immovable cultural heritages in the village, including Tianhou Palace, Yuxu Palace, Ancient Bridge, Dengshe Ancient Wharf, and the unique "oyster shell house" in Lingnan water network zone, all of which reflect the historical evidence that the ancient villages in the Pearl River Estuary are composed of water. Legend has it that the dragon boat in Zhou Xiao was once named "Yingzhou Dragonfly" in the Southern Han Dynasty, so only the dragon boat in Zhou Xiao Village is the flag supporting the yellow background and red border. Zhou Xiao Village is an ancient village with the characteristics of Lingnan Water Town, and it is also the favorite residence of artists, and is known as Zhou Xiao Art Village. A large number of literary and art circles gathered in Zhou Xiao Village, and the saying that "there is 798 in the north and Zhou Xiao Village in the south" was on the rise.
On August 26th, 20 13, Zhou Xiao Village was announced by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Finance as the second batch of traditional villages in China.
