Ancient Villages in Southern Anhui -- Xidi and Hongcun (UNESCO/NHK)
The two traditional villages of Xidi and Hongcun preserve to a remarkable extent the appearance of non-urban settlements of a type that largely disappeared or was transformed during the last century. Their street plan, their architecture and decoration, and the integration of houses with comprehensive water systems are unique surviving examples.

Shifan music 东韩村拾幡古乐 from Donghan village, Baoding, Hebei, China
A video about Donghan village shifan ancient music (东韩村拾幡古乐), a genre of traditional music from Donghan village (东韩村), Lingyunce Hui and Manchu Ethnic Township (凌云册回族满族乡), Yi County (易县), Baoding (保定市), Hebei province, northern China. This music, which was originally called shifanhui (十番会), is performed by large ensembles comprising a wide variety of wind, string, and percussion instruments, and numbering up to 108 musicians. It is most often performed for holiday festivals and temple fairs. It is divided into two main categories: wu shifan (武十番) which is more martial in sound, dominated by wind instruments and percussion, and wen shifan (文十番), which is quieter and uses more string instruments. The music in this video represents the latter category. The repertoire is divided into three categories: zhi qu (只曲, individual pieces), lian qu (联曲, suites made up of two or more individual qupai), and tao qu (套曲, longer suites).
Probably filmed in Donghan village (东韩村), Lingyunce Hui and Manchu Ethnic Township (凌云册回族满族乡), Yi County (易县), Baoding (保定市), Hebei province, northern China, c. 2015.
Donghan village shifan ancient music is a tradition of great significance, in large part because its repertoire was inherited directly from the court music of the Qing Dynasty. Gu Xun (顾勋; style name: Shantang, 善堂), a native of Donghan who served as a palace musician during the Qianlong period, handed down the palace music to the village folk musicians after returning home, organizing them to study and perform the music for the local community. Donghan village shifan ancient music has been handed down over nine generations and has a history of nearly 200 years.
The rise of Donghan village shifan ancient music is related to the building of the Tailing Tomb (泰陵), the largest of the Western Qing tombs (清西陵) in Yi County, this project, undertaken between 1730 and 1736 during the reign of the Yongzheng emperor (r. 1722-1735), attracting many Manchu people and Han Bannermen (汉军旗人) to settle there.
In 2007, the tradition of Yi County Donghan village shifan ancient music (易县东韩村拾幡古乐), centering on Yi County, Baoding, Hebei province, northern China, was included in the second batch of traditions inscribed in Hebei's Provincial List of Intangible Cultural Heritage (河北省第二批省级非物质文化遗产名录).
In 2008, the tradition of Donghan village shifan ancient music (东韩村拾幡古乐), a variety of Jizhong shengguanyue (冀中笙管乐) centering on Yi County, Baoding, Hebei province, northern China, was additionally acknowledged by its addition to the Expansion Project for the First Batch of China's National List of Intangible Cultural Heritage (第一批国家级非物质文化遗产扩展项目名录). Jizhong shengguanyue (冀中笙管乐) is a collection of sheng-guan ensemble traditions found across the Central Hebei Plain (which is bounded to the north by Beijing, to the east by Tianjin, and to the south by Cangzhou and Dingzhou, including nearly 30 cities and counties of Hebei province).

Nanping Ancient Village, China, GoPro HD（黟县 - 南屏古村落）
Nanping Ancient Village of Huangshan, located at the foot of Nanping Mountain, 4 kilometers southwest of Yi County, is a millennium-aged, grand scale habitation for ancient Huizhou merchants. To this day, the mysterious Nanping Village still well preserves nearly 300 ancient dwellings built in Ming and Qing dynasties (1368-1911); the criss-cross 72 lanes among high walls constitute a mysterious maze, and 36 ancient round or square wells still produce limpid waters; what is more, on the 300-meter-long axes from the end to the other end of the village is the spectacular architectural complex of 8 quaint ancestral halls.
Originally built in Yuan Dynasty (1206-1368) by Ye family, Nanping Village is inhabited by over 1000 people of Ye, Cheng, Li and other several families today. A typical ancient village in Southern Anhui with unique features of its ancestral halls, Nanping Village was also a battle field of both Three Kingdoms (220-280) and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom (1851-1864, a influential peasant uprising), and further, a shooting site for many a films, e.g. Oscar-winning film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
Picturesque Hongcun,China 畫裡的宏村
Picturesque Hongcun,China 畫裡的宏村
歌曲: 月光小夜曲
宏村位于中国安徽省南部的黄山脚下，是一座有着大量明清时期历史建筑的古村落。村中还构建了完善的水系和颇具特色的牛形布局，是徽州民居的典型代表。2000年，包括宏村在内的皖南古村落被列为世界文化遗产。2001年，宏村古建筑群被中华人民共和国国务院公布为第五批全国重点文物保护单位之一。2003年，宏村被授予中国历史文化名村称号。
宏村位于安徽省南部的黟县县城东北11公里处，现为宏村镇的驻地。整个村落坐北朝南，背靠黄山的餘脉雷岗山，西面有邕溪河和羊栈河流淌而过，全村面积约28万平方米。
该村始建于北宋政和三年（1113年），最初叫作弘村，是汪氏家族的聚居地。明永乐年间，汪氏族长请风水先生勘定环境，重新布局了建筑，并引水入村。清代中期，村中再次进行大规模的兴建，并为避乾隆帝弘历之讳，而更名为宏村。村内现在依然留存了大量明清时期的古建筑，其中明代建筑1幢，清代建筑102幢，民国时期建筑34幢，大都保存完好，是徽州民居的典型代表。
宏村的一大特色是它有着一套完善的供水系统。村民们将村西的河水引入村内，开凿了一条近1米宽的水圳，九曲十弯，为各家各户提供生活用水，同时也起到调节气温和美化环境的作用。水圳在村的中部形成半月形的月沼，又在南部形成弓形的南湖，构成了宏村独特的风貌。
该村的另一大特色是它的平面采用仿生学的牛形布局。以雷岗山为牛头，村口的两株古树为牛角，月沼为牛心，南湖为牛肚，蜿蜒的水圳为牛肠，民居建筑为牛身，四座古桥为牛脚，形状惟妙惟肖，称作山为牛头树为角，桥为四蹄屋为身。
Hongcun (宏村) is a village in Yi County county, Anhui Province, People's Republic of China, near the southwest slope of Mount Huangshan.
The village is arranged in the shape of an ox with the nearby hill (Leigang Hill) interpreted as the head, and two trees standing on it as the horns. Four bridges across the Jiyin stream can be seen as the legs whilst the houses of the village form the body. Inside the body, the Jiyin stream represents the intestines and various lakes such as the South Lake (Nanhu) form the other internal organs.
The architecture and carvings of the approximately 150 residences dating back to the Ming and Qing Dynasties are said to be among the best of their kind in China.[citation needed] One of the biggest of the residences open to visitors, Chenzhi Hall, also contains a small museum.
Together with Xidi, the village became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2000. Scenes from the film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon were filmed on location in Hongcun.

Yi-volk in Zuid-Sichuan China
Het Yi-volk in Zuid-Sichuan was vroeger een machtig volk met koningen wiens invloed tot ver reikte. Het Yi-volk werd vroeger door westerse missiewerkers Lolo's genoemd. De adel onder dit volk, de Blauwe Lolo's, hadden Han-Chinezen tot slaven! Er zijn veel verschillende soorten Yi, herkenbaar aan hun onderscheidende klederdracht. De meest in het oog vallende zijn de Zwarte Kappen Yi.
Hier een indruk, meestal onderweg op lokale markten, van ongeveer 5 minuten.
