4K 沉浸式游览肇庆八卦村｜一座按八卦布局建成的岭南古村

Nestled amidst the lush paddy fields of Zhaoqing, Guangdong, lies an 800-year-old living labyrinth—the Li-cha Bagua Village in Gaoyao. Built atop the gentle slope of Fenggang Hill and encircled by protective ponds, this ancient village is a masterclass in layout. From above, thousands of grey-brick and black-tiled residences radiate outward, resembling a massive, ancient Tai Chi compass seamlessly carved into the Lingnan landscape. The village is structured around "Ten Lanes and One Block," guarded by historic gateways inscribed with traditional Confucian virtues. Once inside, you enter a maze of "nine bends and thirteen turns," where no lane runs straight. It was this very architectural enigma that saved the village during the war; legendary tales tell of a Japanese troop that got so hopelessly lost in the alleys—and so confused by local dialect homophones—that they mistook the "Bagua" (Eight Trigrams) village for a hostile "Ba-lu" (Eighth Route Army) stronghold and fled in panic. Today, visitors still climb to the "Hongyun (Good Fortune) Platform" at the village's center to spin three times for luck, or draw a bucket of sweet, crystal-clear water from the centuries-old "Imperial Scholar's Well." Here, amidst the dappled shadows of ancient brickwork, you will touch the enduring harmony and survival wisdom of ancestors who learned to live alongside nature's waters. Come and lose yourself in Li-cha, only to find your way back to peace.
