Because the mountain road in the village is rugged, it is only suitable for hiking. After parking the car, we went into battle light. First, we passed a long suspension bridge, and the deck was a little shaky. Just pass carefully.
The young people in the village have all moved out of the mountains, leaving some old people behind. They still retain their original living conditions of keeping bees, growing fungus, growing mushrooms and collecting medicinal materials.
Here, we see that every household has a beekeeping farm. They put a beehive next to the house. Beehives are special. He made it out of thick trees, cut it in half and hollowed it out.
The honey produced by this beehive is called "big honey" locally, and the beehives are scattered under the eaves of every household in the village, which has become another unique cultural landscape.

On the suspension bridge, I saw this red leaf called Cotinus coggygria on the opposite mountain. It is the most common tree in southwest China, with round leaves that can be recognized at a glance.
The village retains the most primitive old house in Liuba County. From the architectural point of view, the cover is in southern Shaanxi style, and the wall is in Guanzhong style, so it is a combination of Guanzhong and southern Shaanxi architecture.
The reason is that there is much rain in southern Shaanxi, and the house can no longer be built on the other side like the eight eccentrics in Guanzhong.
Then decorate the walls with patterns, keeping the architectural style of Guanzhong.
There are many plants in Qinling Mountains, many of which have medicinal plants. For example, in the Tang poetry, "Being in a foreign land, I miss my relatives twice every festive season. I know from a distance where my brother climbed, and there is one person missing from the dogwood. " The dogwood described in it.
Cornus officinalis is a kind of medicinal material growing in Qinling Mountains.
On the wall and on the woodpile are beehives.
The two small holes in the middle are the holes where bees come in and out. Because the weather in Qinling Mountain is cold in autumn and winter, some old clothes are covered on it to keep the bees warm.
Seeing the old farmers beating castor seeds, these castor seeds will be sent to fry oil after collection, which is very lively.
There is a 500-year-old pine tree behind the village. You can go and have a look if you are interested.
