Hidden in the valleys of Ningbo, there lies an ancient village secluded from the world | Longgong Ancient Village

| Longgong Ancient Village. The village is built on a high mountain basin, surrounded by towering mountains and ridges, with 18 clear springs flowing through the gorges, converging into three streams that flow into the village. The landscape is embraced by mountains and water, encircled but not blocked, harnessing the wind and gathering water. Longgong Village is not only named after the dragon, but also has Dragon Creek, Dragon Mountain, Dragon Pool, Dragon Bridge, Dragon Tree, and legends of dragons. The village is over 900 years old, with ancient houses, ancestral halls, opera stages, private schools, and old temples from the Ming and Qing dynasties. Time seems to have stopped its march here. 99% of the villagers share the surname Chen, whose ancestors migrated from Shaoxing. The idiom 'gentleman on the beam' originated from the Chen ancestors. Upholding righteousness is also the core value of the ancient village culture. Longgong Village is recognized as a Chinese historical and cultural village and a traditional ancient village.
