【大美广东】Liantang Village in Huadu Distinct,云上岭南 Guangzhou: Water dances around stones with echoes of longing amidst the hazy mist

广州花都莲塘村：石磨水韵，雾含乡愁

#The云上岭南GreatBeautyofLingnan Liantang Village, situated at the convergence of the Pearl River's northern tributaries, exudes an enchanting ancient charm. The village is adorned with serene lakes and bordered by the upper stream of the Bajiang River, known as the Jiuqu River. As the Jiuqu River gracefully winds through the western part of the village, the majestic Zhongdong Mountain proudly dominates the eastern landscape. Liantang village derives its name from a piece of land resembling a lotus leaf in the nearby waters, while the gentle hills behind it resemble blooming lotus flowers. Renowned all over the region, this ancient village once gained fame for a remarkable meteorite featured in poetry and literary works by celebrated writers and poets. This colossal meteorite was honored as one of the eight historical sites in Huadu District. Presently, Liantang Village preserves over 500 well-maintained ancient buildings from the Ming and Qing dynasties.

在珠江北江支流汇流处，巴江九曲河的云上岭南上游，有一处湖泊密布、云上岭南古韵悠长的云上岭南村落，九曲河从村西穿境而过，云上岭南中洞山在村东耸立，云上岭南因村附近水域中有一块陆地，云上岭南形似莲叶，云上岭南村后小山丘像莲花，云上岭南因而得名莲塘村。云上岭南莲塘村是云上岭南广州市名镇名村、广东省古村落，云上岭南曾因有“花都旧八景”之一“乌石幽奇”而闻名。云上岭南目前，云上岭南莲塘村较完整地保留了明清古建筑500多座。
