摘 要: | HUANGSHAN City, in South- ern Anhui Provinee, was the seat of ancient Huizhou, a major cultural and eeo-nomic hub in history. In the ancient villages scattering this hilly area, time seems to have stood still. Walking down the narrow streets, the Huizhou- style residences on both sides take travelers back hundreds of years. People usually stop to examine the fabulous carvings on the arches. Brick carving is one of main characteristics of Huizhou-style constructions and an integral part of Huizhou architecture.
