Information

Shangzhangwei was established by a branch of the Deng clan who lived in Hangtou Village. It is located to the west of Hangtou Village. It has a history of more than 200 years and is the only enclosed village along the Pingshan Heritage Trail. Shangzhangwei is a typical local fenced village. It was surrounded by the original blue brick wall in the past. The houses inside the enclosure were built in rows, and the gate tower and the hall were located on the central axis. The layout was neat and unique, and the buildings and halls were located in the middle of the scene. The map is full of walls. Outside the wall, the river is protected; now the river protection has been filled and the gate tower and halls have been demolished, but some walls and some ancient houses inside the enclosure are still standing. The layout, structure and style of the traditional village can still be seen vaguely.
